So you may have noticed that I have been slacking on the blog posting as of late--but I did have time to throw together a little somethin' somethin' that attempts to capture the days and days of photos that I have yet to post....in the form of a slide show.
Somehow, in between trips to Windsor, Ontario and the surgery I had on my vocal cords, I managed to continue to take pictures, although that is pretty much the extent of it.
But don't fret, I've decided to go with the flow and let the project continue on into the coming months. Check back soon for an update of the last two (three?) weeks and my on-going journey into the world of queer femme.
Enjoy!
Top Ten Queer-ish, Femm-ish Moments of the Last Few Weeks:
1. Going to the Peaches Concert- enough said
2. Having surgery on my vocal cords (my voice is no longer as raspy/cracky as it once was, a tad higher pitched and therefore a little more femme-ish to me)
3. Taking an adventure to Windsor and femme-ing it up small town style
4. Saying 'fuck' it for the past three days and wearing my supervisiblelesbian outfits
5. Realizing that sometimes I don't want to outwardly perform femme but I can still let my inner femme shine through
6. Re-connecting with Kundalini Yoga and my body
7. Being silent for 4 days straight (due to the surgery) and realizing how much a part of me (and my identity) my voice is- those who have been with me through this can attest to this
8. Painting my nails red over and over again because they will not stop chipping! (if anyone has any good tips for this please, please, let me know)
9. Watching glee and remembering how much I miss being an actor/singer
10. Going to my cousin's voice recital wearing my 'i love my cunt' button (sorry mom!)

I don't expect you'll get notifications from this blog any more but ah well... I've just finished reading all of your entries, and honestly this is brilliant. It was an amazing idea, and I'm glad that you were able to explore your identity through it. Thank you. As a baby-femme, I'm struggling to find my own identity within the queer community, and I completely get what you mean by 'not feeling gay enough'. You've helped show me that being femme isn't about some preconceived label, but instead about your personal feelings. You write very well, and this is possibly one of the best documentations of the struggles of being femme and finding your place that I've read. Keep up the good work in whatever you are doing now. :)
