I've got confidence for quiet
Aug. 8th, 2008 01:01 pmSomething I forgot. Yesterday, I wore my binder for the first time in public, also the longest time I've worn it in one go.
I won't deny it, it was uncomfortable. Sweaty as hell, itchy, blah blah blah. But I forgot that, for the most part, because I felt so confident. I don't remember *ever* feeling like this in public, particularly in a place like the Chip, with all those scantily clad ladies and big 'bad' bikers. I caught myself, a few times, looking at guys in tanktops, and then looking at myself...and really, I think if I could somehow walk like a guy (good luck on that, with my balance and such), someone from ten feet away or so might have mistaken me for one.
It's weird how good that felt.
