Ohhhhh........What a night......Coming Out & more
Well sorry for being MIA the last week folks...it has been a crazy one for certain. My work week was FAB-U-LOUS....I LOVE my new job. I adore the new Teaching sector and I get to add another credential to my Professional Certification...IF....I pass the next exam in 1 month. Please cross your fingers for me folks! Now on to more updates about me. Number 1: I had my medical work-up and my Physcian is still saying as long as all stays as it is now...I can be cleared to officially be cleared to start AI in May....yes MAY! (On other post, on another day, I will share WHY I needed to wait to AI at all) I think my NW Buddy Michelle...may be starting in AI in May too. (if memory serves) YEAH...we can be Cylce buddies Michelle......yippeeee. Let's see..where was I, oh Update Number 2: I need to loose at least 20 pounds STAT....while Christmas shopping on Sat with a friend I passed by a mirror and out of the corner of my eye it looked like someone was behind me.....yeah someone was there all right..it was my Ass. Yes, I said it....when did it start a darn colony and get its own zipcode..Damn! So...as soon as Christmas is over. I am hitting the weight loss....before I eat myself into a coma or something. Now my Final Update Number 3, is about imortant news from my dear, dear friend. On Friday night I was picking up a friend from the airport who is staying with me until tomorrow a.m. when she flys home to MD. Anyway, she has been in Asia on a job for 15 months. We IM each other every 1 or 2 days. Anyway, over many years we have been through almost everything together....good, bad, ugly...you name it. We will call her K. On Friday K mentioned she had something VERY serious to talk to me about when we went to Dinner at City Walk on Saturday. Since K is a professional Smart-Ass I was intriqued when she seemed so serious...I tried to get it all out of her on Friday night but NO Luck. Well, after gabbing & shopping on ALL Sat we went to dinner talking a mile a minute which is usual for us. I told her ENOUGH, out with it...I was certain she had met a guy & was thinking about something shocking like moving full-time to Asia & not coming back.LOL. K was acting so gingerly...I told her come on, nothing you can say will shock me. K told me she hadn't wanted to mentioned it but she had met someone 7 months ago, fell in love, and knew this was "it." I said what is the big deal....why wouldn't you tell me? K told me......she has fallen in Love and the love of her lifes name is......Hillary. Yes, men of the world....K is off the market. I sat and looked at K & didn't say a word and listened as she proceeded to tell me how they met and how shocked she was when Hillary asked her out & how shocked she was when she said "yes." When she came up for air...she just seemed so different, so nervous and we have NEVER been nervous or stiff with each other. I said..."Can I speak now?" I told K she had to be kidding me making me think the news was something that was going to upset me so....I said give me a damn break.....so, you are a lesbian....got anything else better than that to shock me with? I told her how MAD I was at her, that knowing me & my love for ALL people Why she would think this would shock ME.....hello we have mutual friends in gay realtionships or unions and so, what. Love & let others do the same is my motto! As Long as I get to love my men...why should I care what you do. Then in the middle of the restaurant K burst into tears & hugged me so tight the server came over & asked if we were OK. Then being a professional smart ass myself I told her I sure wish she had realized she was a lesbian when we were in College...because she could have cut down on the competition for the Hot guys between us both! We laughed & laughed. I also told her.....congratulations on finding someone so special in your life. We made plans for me to meet Hillary to scope her out & give my opinion. You know...the way all friends do when their friends get serious about someone. HeHehehehehe.......I love you K.......you go Girl! Or should I say, "Girls?"

What a good friend you are! I'm sure K felt much relief at letting you know this huge happening in her life. I came out at 25 (after I'd been living with my boyfriend of 5 years!) so my friends were pretty shocked, but honestly I haven't experienced any hatred or non-acceptance, at least not to my face! And that's all that matters to me. I don't care if someone doesn't accept my lifestyle as long as they keep those feelings to themselves. Funny, but when I first read your subject line, I wondered if YOU were coming out! HAHA!!
Anyway, good to get an update from you and thanks for your nice comments on my blog. Take care.
Ditto on what a good friend you are!
I am glad you got the OK for AI in May!!
GOOD LUCK!
I am so glad that went so well for the two of you... I was the same way when I told my friends... I was just kinda nervous on how they would react. But, like you, they were awesome!!! Congrats to K and I am sure now you guys will be even closer if that is possible :)
Isn't it fabulous to celebrate a friend's happiness!!!!?? K obviously loves you so very much and cares what you think. It's wonderful to share that. You're a good friend. But I could tell that about you from the first one or two posts of yours I read... Can't wait 'til you join us on the AI front!! (Hope I've moved beyond that by May! But I also hope I'm there for you the way you're there for me and others!)
