| This is letter 16, another interesting thing in my life. Well at lease I think so.... Letter from Shirley May 2001 |
| Here we go again. I had to go on a trip. Airplane trip silly. On the way back I stopped to see a friend. We have been friends for a very, very long time. We know stories about X wives and other things. But not ALL things as you will see. This all started about a month ago. I was at home and the phone rang. It was my friend. We were talking and I had had a little wine that night. I’ve been thinking about telling him about Shirley for about 2 years but have not found the right time and didn’t know how. So I open mouth and stick my foot in by saying, “I have to tell you about my other side some day.” As soon as I said that, I was thinking, YOU STUPID. WELL, the cat is about out of the bag now. We talked more and then said our good byes. We talked on the phone 5 or 6 more times but the subject did not come up. I thought, maybe he would forget. What a dilemma. I want to tell all, BUT, I don’t want to loose a friend, a very good friend, of many years. I got prepared for the trip and took some pictures with me just in case. He picks me up at the airport and we do the usual small talk. What’s up, How is work yada yada yada. When we get to the place I grab my day planner and take it inside with me. Not too strange because I have to make some phone calls, but the pictures are in it. I make the calls and we talk some more. Then I said, “About the other night and the other side.” He said, “ I wondered if that would come up.” Now here is the big moment. I said,” A picture is worth a 1000 words and I have pictures.” I continue, ”This is a little embarrassing but I have a sexual disphobia and I cross dress!” WELL This is where the rubber meets the road, the Sxxx hits the fan, the buck stops. There was a bit of silence and then He said, “ I understand, I DO TOO!” You could have knocked me over with a feather. All these years and we both do and didn’t talk about it and didn’t know. WELL, let me tell you, we talked about it for a long time. It is still a little embarrassing that another person knows, but you do, so, OH WELL. I am still in shock two weeks later. Now when Karen P and I are on the phone we have another subject to talk about. What are you wearing, no, what are you wearing first? Tonight I have on my yada yada yada. You know what I mean girls. So that’s the news of late. Like it???? More yada later. Shirley J |
