A random, long time gone update!!

Post by Eureka »

Hey everyone! Just a random update from yours truly.
Things have been quite busy! I'm now a Nevada resident! What's more, after 4 months of searching I've started a new job!!!!
I'm now a cook at Marco's Pizza!
That means if we have the events in Vegas I can get us a discount on food!
Things out here are a bit odd though, compared to WA the environment is a little off putting and living with my sister has presented a chore. Turns out she's far less accepting with who I am than she liked to say she was. Any time something comes up related therein she gets this look of disapproval, almost disgust!
Oh well, I'll sort it out one day.

Living with others can be a strain at times. Don't let it get to you or between you two. Good to hear you've landed a job.

From experience living with others can be stressful. For about 6 months I lived with my sister and her family. Although I tried to impose as little as possibel there was still some friction. That was without crossdressing being involved.

Congratulations on the move and the new job! It sounds like you're excited about it all despite the challenges of living with someone else.

Since you're in Vegas you might want to register for Diva Las Vegas this year - it's coming up in just over a month. There's no registration charge and you wouldn't have any travel expenses so it'd be a great way to meet and chat with other crossdressers face-to-face. Details available at http://geekbabe.com/dlv/.

Hi Eureka
Glad to see you're doing well. Nevada is certainly a different cup of tea, at least from what I've heard from friends and family (it's true, I've never been). I'm sure you will find many new challenges and opportunities there.

Living with relatives can be a struggle sometimes. Just as with any roommate, though, there should be some ground rules. It would probably be a good idea to let her know how much her disapproval pains you. Some people's opinions can be ignored, but as the saying goes "blood is thicker than water".

Good luck, sweetie. I hope everything works out well for you.
Hugs,
Kyra

Congrats on the move to Nevada. I so miss Vegas where I grew up. If you are in Vegas let me know, I can get you in touch with a local bunch who will welcome you in and show you around.
