Interesting thoughts from the last week

[the_fantastic_ms_fox]

        Sunday
1. Stop signs are on the cross street: good, I have right-of-way.
2. A truck!
3. Bicycle+truck=bad
4. Hmm... I won't be able to brake in time
5. Yup, I was right. I hope I won't be too badly hurt.
6. (discontinuity of memory)*
7. Holy shit, I'm okay. I didn't hit my head. Good.

*I remember a loud "thump"

And I am okay, I just have some scrapes and bruised muscles. The driver gave me a ride to church. Nice guy.


        Monday
1. I'm supposed to be dressing like a boy for the photoshoot with inri33
2. I seem to have ditched most of my non-androgynous clothes (most of which were way too big)
3. I wear this when I play Lichen, and he's pretty male.
4. [Looking in the mirror] Wow. Even with the clothes, I still look different.


        Wednesday
- I've been going to this campus for years, yet I have no idea where many of the girl's bathrooms are.
- On Monday I was dressing as a boy and grwing my facial hair out for laser hair removal. Contrast to today where I'm dressed a bit more comfortably and have shaved and I look in the mirror and... holy shit, I actually look female. This is pretty sweet

I would swear up and down I was hit my Helen Hunt when I was 13. At least, she looked just like her. She was a bit frantic. I was too shy to make an issue about it, I just said I hoped her car was alright and politely refused a ride home.

Hi

"Hit" is the past tense of "hit", so you don't need to include "was" as well. A more correct phrase could have been "I hit my Helen Hunt when..." Nice use of euphamism, though: I applaud your adventurous exploration of this difficult language!

Har har. The mistake made was truly when I said "my" instead of "by". "I was hit by...". There. I applaud your stringent protection of this language already destroyed by 600 years of interbreeding and failed wars.
