an expedition

"Hello?"
"Hi. It's me."
who? Oh. The other former-Spümcø MtF. "Morning..."
"You doing anything?"
"...not really, I just woke up."
"Wanna go to TJ?"
...TJ? Trader Joe's? "...TJ?"
"Tijuana." Previous context: she's going there to get some hormones.
"hmm, well, I don't really have the funds for getting anything..." but hey! adventure! "...how long a drive is it?"
"Most of a day, an hour and a half there and back, probably about five hours overall."
"What the hell. Sure."

A little detail and timing discussion. I don't need a passport, do I? No, just ID.

I've never been out of the States before. Tijuana, I know, is a border town catering to Americans doing just the sort of thing she's doing, and to ones looking for a little tingle of the exotic without going all the way... but it'll definitely be an adventure.

More later.

[ PS. I shall attempt to avoid doing anything... stupid. ]

Good luck.

Woah. TS girls are STILL doing that drug run? O_O How cool! That really takes me back. Get some Androcur! It was my personal favourite.

[dv-girl.livejournal.com]

Huh. You know, I'd never thought of it in this context but think about how cool this is, really. You're taking drugs that alter your BODY as well as your mind. No wonder you're such a xenophile.

It's a good thing there isn't a 'grow tentacles' pill or we'd be searching the allways and calamari flop-houses to find you. *hugs* ^_^

mmm.. calamari..

I don't think t-girls are likely to stop doing it until drug costs come way down here in the States...

Mostly I feel like I'm taking body-altering drugs. There's some mind change but it's more just not being so afraid to be myself any more. Well, there are much stronger emotions - but they're not, you know, altered states.

And... right now? There's a part of me that is perfectly happy waiting until the possibilities with SRS become more, um, exotic. I have no problems with getting surgery down there and still having to tell people that they won't find quite what they expect when they get my panties down!

"Before we go any further, hon, there's, um... something you should know... Sex with me won't be quite what you expect."
"Oh, you've got a dick or something? That's no problem!"
"I, um, used to. Now I have... ah... Have you ever seen Legend of the Overfiend?" (proud grin)

[dv-girl.livejournal.com]

Ah, but it's the subtle changes that are the most provocative, no? I mean, your body is changing so slowly you don't really realize it, so are you sure your mind isn't changing just as much but you're similarly not aware? ^_^

*griiiiiin* Bad, bad Peggy. <3

[kensan-oni.livejournal.com]

Too late. You went to TJ. You've already done something foolish. No, can't take it back now. Gotta just hold on for dear life.

Seriously, I hope everything works well and you come home unscared.

[ultraken.livejournal.com]

Be careful, but have fun anyway.

Safe journey....and maybe see you at the party later?

(i'm like 3 hours away from it)

[shatterstripes.livejournal.com]

I want a shower now.

[goforthbyday.livejournal.com]

i spent three days there without access to a private shower, and i've never felt dirtier in my life. i know how you feel.

[lapdragon.livejournal.com]

I want a picture of all the empty liquor bottles!
