ooops I did it again....(in my best Britany Spears voice)
8 months later and it happened again, I was taken completely by surprise.
I was working on a midi keyboard that needed repairing, I`d just firgured out the problem and was about to start the repair with m trusty screwdriver at the ready, I do what I always do, put on some lipstick, tie my hair back and roll my sleeves up.
I got up to put my lippy on and a second into it, it hit me hard! "I`m putting lipstick on a Woman!!!!" it`s like I didn`t recognise myself at all, there was just this woman in the mirror and I was putting lipstick on her!???
I guess part of me was in complete Work-Mode where my Gender as such doesn`t even come into it, if anything I`d identify as an Agender Machine when I`v got my work head on. and seeing that in the mirror really surprised me!
what really shocked me was that because I like Girls as well as Guys, when I saw this "stranger" I remember thinking "I Like her!"
needless to say, after I got over it, I just gave myself a wink, tied my hair up, rolled up my sleeves and completed the repair excellently, but it`s a real Head-F**k when it happens! and the shock/surprised feeling has stayed with me for days, in a nice way.
I`v definitely made the right choice, and I`m never ever ever going back! xx
