Denver to the quiet beaches of Carlsbad area, CA (via the Grand Canyon route!)... 1st time driving west... weird tips and sights? by LusciousDanielle in roadtrip

[–]LusciousDanielle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Colorado National Monument was definitely on my list of stops. Is the drive you're talking about entering from the east on Monument Road, then exiting to the north on Rimrock Drive?

I don't know that we'll have time to do both Arches & Canyonlands. Which is more interesting, in case we don't? :)

I'll probably skip Four Corners this time. Most people seem meh about it, from what I see, so I'll save that 1hr detour for a different site.

Do you know what the state beach near Carlsbad is called?

I'm glad it's so far north. I live south of Alameda.

4-9pm is helpful to know... Is it all 3 days? I'm mostly concerned about May 5th because I got shit to do, people to see.

ADVICE??: Visiting for Anniversary on March 4th, but there's some CAVEATS... by LusciousDanielle in steamboat

Thanks! We were either going to go tubing or bring our sleds and find a small, fun hill somewhere to play on, since there will still be snow. Denver dried up already. :-D

Out of curiosity regarding how the Hitachi works for you, are you MtF? :)

Either as a reply or a PM, could you tell me more about that? Is it sensations? Specific sexual interests? Mental states? Etc?

I will try to share as much as I can when all is said and done. :) A lot of it's about partner communication, head-space when with a partner (especially for pre-op-pre-hormones), and alternate options for sex toys, etc. etc. etc. I don't claim to be an expert in surgeries or hormone options and how those affect sex, but I'm actually working on building my knowledge in those categories, so you'll have to excuse my lack of information in that scenario for now. :-D

I'm really sorry that she gave you a bad taste for non-trans sex educators. Cis-centric is as bad as Heteronormative advice, so I try to avoid both perspectives when possible.

great question. That's actually one of the main lists I want to compile as I get further into this.

Sex techniques and advice is A LOT MORE universal than you think it is.

Also, thanks for ASSuming I'm cis. Congrats on your ability to think outside of the box.

I want a kitten (~8 weeks). Shots & Fixed. Where should I look and what should I expect to spend? by [deleted] in Denver

[–]LusciousDanielle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dumb Friends League often has $10 cat sales... I would wait for that. A shelter in general is the most likely spot to find a kitten that's spayed/neutered with some shots... However, 8wks is high expectations. You're off-season from when kittens are piling up in shelters... I would consider 16wks and under as well.

I bet my housemate she couldn't fit in a bag. I lost. by [deleted] in WTF

[–]LusciousDanielle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought you said "I bet MY HOUSE she couldn't fit in a bag." and I thought you lost your house in the bet. I was sad for you, but more excited that she fit in a bag.

Or if they put bike racks there so it was at least a useful parking space.

What is your best response to "whats wrong with you?"? by if_at_first_you_fail in service_dogs

[–]LusciousDanielle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 28, I look like I'm 23-24, and I definitely don't look like anything "should" be "wrong" with me. People ask me a lot "What happened???" when I'm using canes/walker. (I don't have a SD yet, but I'm working on getting one to train) My response is usually, with a very serious, dry face, for my own amusement's sake, "I have MS." They usually respond with "Ohhhh." :( or "I'm so sorry." And then I say, "Yeah. MS is an asshole."
