So this morning, I was innocently minding my business,<\/p>\n

Slowly getting ready to go into the office,<\/p>\n

Enjoying cup number 8 of my daily 15+ cups of coffee,<\/p>\n

When I wandered back from my bedroom into my fort, aka den.<\/p>\n

I checked my e-mail and saw that I had an e-mail from Tiger’s Brain. (Tiger was formerly known as Coffee<\/a>, I changed his nickname at his request after agreeing that referring to him as Coffee showed no originality on my part whatsoever, while calling him Tiger with the subtle allusions to possible golf prowess was funny in the same way that referring to Shaft as Shaft was funny … he’s no where like it ! \ud83d\ude42 Tiger’s Brain is his wife, obviously !)<\/p>\n

Kewl !!!! I love getting e-mails from her !! What a great way to start the week ! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Hey !<\/i><\/p>\n

Does Dr. 172 know or is he just a really good doctor? (which I don’t buy!)<\/i><\/p>\n

Here is the situation. I called Dr. 172 to get him to pick up his damn Girl Scout Cookies. Got on to the topic of this year’s golf outting and this is how it went.<\/p>\n

Me:<\/b> Is it on?
\nHim:<\/b> Not sure, I can only go in August.
\nMe:<\/b> Some sarcastic comment about how nice it is to be a single, rich doctor with no kids.
\nMe:<\/b> You know, Tiger and Joe aren’t going?
\nHim:<\/b> Why isn’t Joe going?
\nMe:<\/b> How should I know?
\nHim:<\/b> I have my theory.
\nMe:<\/b> Yeah? What is it?
\nHim:<\/b> He is having a sex change operation.
\nMe (after recovering my breath):<\/b> What is your evidence?
\nHim:<\/b> I just think so.<\/p>\n

Then he went into how this doctor he knows is having one (man, who knew it was so common?) … blah, blah, blah. Then thankfully, dinner was ready.<\/p>\n

So, my question:<\/p>\n

1. Was this a test for me, because I did not give? Although, it was good he did not see my face when he said his theory.
\n2. Does he know?
\n3. Is he really an observant doctor?<\/p>\n

Hope things are going well.<\/p>\n

Tiger’s Brain.<\/i>
\n<\/i>
\nWow … I’m really not sure how Dr. 172 was able to draw such an accurate conclusion.<\/p>\n

I certainly didn’t tell him, and definitely didn’t do that as a test of Tiger’s Brain … seriously, those two know more about all the rest of us than anyone, mainly I think because they are information vaults … you know you can trust them.<\/p>\n

And I haven’t seen Dr. 172 since last year’s golf outting, nor have I talked or e-mailed with him. I guess I would be surprised if my hair gave it away then and I didn’t think I exhibited many other obvious signs, though who knows. However, it is consistent with my prior experience<\/a> that when someone has familiarity with transsexualism, they are much more aware of the signs in others.<\/p>\n

Though, on the other hand, it had to have been something obvious, I mean … he can’t be that good of an observant doctor … your friends can never really be good at what they do for a living. Seriously, how can you imagine anyone really good at what they do when you’ve seen them passed out drunk and drooling on themselves?<\/p>\n

Oh well, guess I better give him a call ! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
