It's NOT Barbie, it's 'The Beach!'

Have you ever felt out of place?

Friday was 50's dress-up day at school. My 'friend', Radonn, told me about it late Thursday night. She said she was going to dress up like someone from the movie Hairspray. She said it was going to be really fun. I woke up late, got dressed in the most retro clothes I had on hand, begged the boys to dress like John Travolta, but they have some amazing self-preservation instinct that they must have inherited from their daddy, and left for school. My friend sent me this little movie she made about 50's dress-up day at the school. It says it better than I ever could. Thanks Carla, but I noticed the picture of you in your outfit is missing...huh.

Do you ever just feel like something's not quite right?

It's been a very, very long day at school today. I told Jerry that it's been one of my top 5 worst days of the school year so far, and I just can't wait until I am done! This is what I'm sure I looked like to my students today:








And, I found this old picture of me before I began my gender replacement hormone therapy. Ahhh, memories. No wonder I didn't date much in high school.







And this is my twin sister who was a fetal alcohol baby. No one's seen her in a long, long time...she kinda looks like a pre-teen Brittany Spears, yeah...when she was a mousekateer. I'm telling you, there's something not quite right about her eyes...





So, like I said...it's been a very loooooonnng day.
