We are Evil?
Tammie Lynn Huber January 1st, 2009 6:45 pm MSTSo now, at age 51, because I chose happiness instead of sadness, life instead of suicide and although I am a good person, I love all people, regardless of any differences...as I have always, I am honest, I have never taken drugs, never been drunk, never committed theft, have always reached out to help anyone that I could...now, some people, the Catholic church and others consider me evil and a lessor human?
Even though I am still a hard working individual and pay taxes, I am not aloud to marry my one true love, another male to female transsexual?
I can be fired from my job in most states, denied medical care, and the federal government and anti-LGBT Churches, condones the violence against us.
Is that the actions of a good government and a righteous church?
The pope says if we are aloud to marry that the human race will eventually die out because humans will cease to propagate, what?
Two things, first; we are going to overpopulate this planet into ruin or kill it by other means, second; LGBT have been here since the beginning of man like I said and look how the we have grown in the past 4000 years.
We are no threat to any one's existence, we only want the same rights that every human being deserves, and yes, I fight for everyone who needs help gaining equal rights, not just our community.
Would they practice some type of genocide if given the chance?
Do they condone the violence perpetrated against the LGBT community?

2008 in Review
Dan™ & Erin™ December 31st, 2008 2:28 pm MSTWell, it's definitely been an interesting year. A lot has happened. I ended a relationship with the best girlfriend I've ever had (though she still wasn't right), I've watched my prosperity complete dry up, I've almost completely stopped smoking and my drinking is almost not even noticeable at this point. I've fallen in love with the most incredible woman and I'm slowly figuring things out.
When the year began, I was worried about money. My company stopped producing and selling adult content which resulted in a massive drop of revenue. Around the same time, I broke my primary revenue producing website preventing people with IE 6 from accessing it, so I spent most of the year working on a new design which finally went online in August.
I really thought most of my financial problems were my fault. The result of changes in my companies business model and my own failing's running the web sites. In fact, I was so busy trying to figure out what I was doing wrong that I didn't notice the world collapsing slowly outside my window.
I had to cash in my kids college funds to pay bills. I had to cancel my life insurance to pay bills. When my car died, I decided to sell it for scrap rather than repair it. Fewer bills again. My house is usually a bit chilly and dark to save on utilities. I've reduced my monthly budget by around 2,000. I've been selling furniture to buy groceries.
For everything that had gone wrong, I'm optimistic. Not because I see an end in sight, but because I feel like I'm getting a handle on things. I have the best friends of my life. I'm in love for the first time in my life. I'm relatively healthy and my kids are healthy and seem well adjusted.
I think things are going to get worse. A lot worse, but I'm confident that we'll all get through this. As a planet, we need to step back and assess what's important. We need to focus on the things that need to be done, and we need to start working towards a better future.
I think we'll do it.
I hope.

Is there anything wrong with that?
Jenna Nicole Guinn December 31st, 2008 10:11 am MSTI had my eyebrows shaped for the first time. I like the look for both sides of me. In guy mode, it gives me a clean look. In girl mode, it makes me look more feminine. Is there anything wrong with having eyebrows that are shaped and clean looking? I don't think so and I don't care if anyone else does.
I had my first manicure recently. It gave my hands a cleaner look and the manicure itself felt great on my hands. Is there anything wrong with getting a manicure from time to time? I don't think so and I don't care if anyone else does.
Until earlier this year, I have always had hangnails; some more painful than others. Now, I moisturize my hands regularly and don't get hangnails anymore. Is there anything wrong with moisturizing my hands to avoid getting hangnails? I dont' think so and I don't care if anyone else does.
It's sad what humans put themselves through just because society doesn't approve. Why suffer needlessly? As long as I'm not hurting myself or anyone else then I will do what I think is best for me...both sides of me.

First Public Outing
Jenna Nicole Guinn December 28th, 2008 9:32 am MSTLast night was so wonderful. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect first public outing. Driving to the TParty dressed en femme was fun (I love driving in heels). I wasn't nervous at all when I arrived at the club. I won't forget the feeling I got when I stepped out of my car wearing the little black dress and knee high boots (with 6" heels). What a rush! Actually, I got plenty of rushes that night. Barbara, who I had met at a CD support group meeting was at the party. She is absolutely the best girl friend I could ask for. Barbara and I are very much alike. She was able to nudge me just enough to get me to do things I've been wanting to do for a long time. We stepped outside the club a few times just to stand outside and admire ourselves in the mirror-like windows of the club. :) During our second trip outside, we took a little stroll to the next street corner. That was a rush!
At about 11 o'clock, Barbara, two other girls and I went to a bar to see a drag show. The thrilling part there was walking across the street to get to the bar and back to the car. Again, what a rush! After watching only part of the drag show, we drove around downtown Columbus before returning to the club.
Barbara and I weren't ready to call it a night. So, we decided to drive to a section of town called the Short North which is TG friendly. Barbara found a parking spot on the street and that's when things got really fun. I was a little hesitant (not nervous) about getting out of the car but Barbara was there to give me that little nudge I needed. Once I got out of the car, I felt completely at ease. We walked for a several blocks; crossing the street twice. It felt so good knowing that people were looking at me while I was crossing the street. To have the headlights of cars pointed at me was so thrilling. What a rush!
Needless to say, I had a night I will never forget. Barbara made most of it happen. I cannot thank her enough.
Meeting all the girls was great. Thank you Suzi for making me feel so welcomed. I can't wait for my next TParty!

What a great morning!
Jenna Nicole Guinn December 22nd, 2008 11:41 am MSTI had a wonderful morning yesterday. Actually, the evening before was wonderful as well. That evening, my wife sat down with me and we discussed my makeup. What a thrill! The next morning, I practiced applying my makeup then dressed from head to toe for two hours. It was so much fun. I took photos which I've already posted on the site. Let me know what you think!~ Jenna

I Despise You People
Michelle Hart December 12th, 2008 4:44 pm MSTThe other night while I was watching the news it was annouced that here in Dallas a brand new "law" would be handed down and used to further punish those of us who have commited no crime. Those of us who have done nothing to the pathetic and pitiful "victims" who have cried foul for years. I have never met you, nor have I said a crass word to you until now. I have tried to stop your endless crusades of ignorance before, but alas my right's are far less important than yours aren't they.
As many of you know I frequently offer my suggestions and perhaps some questionable wisdom for the many wonderful people here in the URNA family. In the grandest sense I have compassion and love for each of you, but some of your efforts and actions are insanly ludicris and impossibly idiotic.
You don't know me but that really doesn't matter. It's your mission in life to punish me and harass me. You have taken it upon yourself to cost me even more money at every turn. That wasn't enough for you though, you wanted more from me. You forced me to stand out in the snow, and the rain. Why should you care if I catch a cold. You got your way like the screaming little brat in a store who has a mother that just can't say no. Your whining temper tantrums are the stuff of legend.
Oh you cry, and flail about in an never ending quest to be validated for your own stupidity and disrespect. You only care about YOU! Nobody else matters. Not the people that will lose their jobs, not the busineses that will lose revenue, certainly not the companies that initially built this nation.
Did you know that all you have today is because of them? You don't care though because you got to force me to give up one more thing that I enjoyed. Desperately hopeing you could taste something other than the meaningless life you live now. Am I being to hateful or harsh for you? Well you have treated me with disdain and contempt for years but you never noticed it. You were far to busy dreaming up your next cause and looking for the newest idiotic crusade.
You are to much of a coward to risk anything at all. You have never been willing to start your own business and cater to those who share your opinion. You were not willing to invest all you had to build something up and gain a loyal customer base. No not you. That was far to difficult, and you knew it would fail eventualy anyway. So you decided to punish those who did do it instead. Why should you put your hard work and effort into something and risk failure? You would never ever do that, it's so much easier to hide behind someone else and throw your intolerance around.
Why should you care if a business has to close it's doors, why should you care if YOU are the cause of that inconveinience. You got your way and finally got to punish the evil doers like me who just happened to be enjoying something you don't like. It never crossed your mind to go someplace else. Oh that's right, those places were not nearly as much fun were they?
Respect for others was never very easy for you was it? So you run your Ad's on the tele, you have your websites and claims of percieved malice. All the while totally ignoring not only the history of this country but those of us who still believe in freedom of choice. Yes my dear, that's right. You lack the most basic of intelligence, you fail in understanding and accepting those simple words. I am sure it's just impossible for you creatins to understand, that anyone could actually have the ability to live their own life without your intrusive and totally misguided wisdom!
You have a choice. Yet, you would do all that you can to ensure that I'm not allowed one. You decry the trauma that I cause you, the pain you feel, the suffering you endure. Oh yes honey you are no different from the petulant lout of a child who did'nt get a lolly pop.
The sheer disdain and contempt you show for me and others is deplorable.
You see my right's as written in the constitution to pursue life liberty and happiness mean absolutely nothing to you. You and the other uneducated brigons have taken it upon yourselves to transfer your inherent misery onto me and others. While I and others try to casually enjoy our evenings out, or just relax at home, you fume and plot and scheme in evermore creative ways to dictate my actions and limit my personal decisions and choices.
Misery loves company and you just can't wait to make everyone as miserable as you.
It's not enough that I have tried to work with you by sitting outside in the cold, or at the back of reasteraunts where I can't apreciate the veiw. No that just was'nt enough, it never will be. So you cried more and more. You complained and no matter what I or anyone else did to make you happy it just was'nt ever enough.
As long as you get your way, it does'nt matter if I have to suffer right? You have forced me to give up the thing's that I used to be able to enjoy in peace. To you EVERYTHING is a problem for you to solve and control. Would you devise a polite and respectful resolution to your egregious and intelectually vapid claims of suffering? Never! That's far to mature and respectful for you.
So I write this open letter to you, the pathetic whining child, the denzien who cares only about yourself and your "rights" but nobody elses. You wretches who have shown such utter and total comtempt for me as an adult. You, who delusionally belive that it is somehow your responsibility nay your "right" to intrude on my life and ruin my relaxation and enjoyment no matter the cost.
You have taken so much from me and others yet have given NOTHING back.
You are a parisite that eagerly sucks the life out of everything around you. As long as you get to decide how everyone else lives, what they eat, or even what they are allowed to drive you're happy.
Unfortunately for you that will never be, YOU will never be happy! YOU will never be content! So today I just wanted to say how much I despise you, how much I loath you and your ilk.
Becasue of YOU I can no longer enjoy a cigarette or a cigar at the Village Station or any other bar or resturaunt in Dallas.
Feel free to let me know what other choices of mine you would like to take away....
Oh and my final two words to you, one these words is “Up.” The other is a possessive pronoun.

Getting out
Jenna Nicole Guinn December 8th, 2008 6:56 pm MSTI'm finally getting out. Wow, does it feel good. I accept who I am. I hope my wife can fully accept me as I am as well. She is somewhat supportive. She'll go shopping with me on occasion but refuses to see me as Jenna. I think I can change her thinking but I know it will be a slow process.

First Entry
Jenna Nicole Guinn December 7th, 2008 8:38 pm MSTHello! This is my first journal entry and hopefully the first of many. I'm not quite sure what to write. I'm finally to the point of being comfortable with who I am. I'm slowly coming out of the closet. I joined URNA to make friends with those who share the same passion for crossdressing as I have.

Purple America
Dan™ & Erin™ November 7th, 2008 3:03 pm MSTFor those of you who still think that the election was close, take a look at these two maps. One shows the counties in their actual size shaded blue or red based on what the population voted.
This map shows each county with a size set by the population. It looks a lot less red.
This is far more of the mandate the George W Bush claimed four years ago, this is a landslide. For those of you that fear a socialist government, let me just state the following:
1. Socialist nations like Denmark, Normay, Sweden and Holland have:
I've heard a lot of people claim that Obama was a socialist. He's not. I wish he was, but I would have been no more enthusiastic of his candidacy.
Be that as it may, why would socialism be so scary anyway?

Pics
Jennifer Lynn Mills October 24th, 2008 8:08 am MDTMany of you have ask why I don't have more pics. Well, there are basically 2 reasons for this: One is pretty simply; my wife. My wife has never really accepted this part of my life. Yes, she tired, or so I hope she did. At one time I have a very nice collection of pics of all types (lingerie, wedding, casually, dressy) you name it. Even some I transferred to DVD's when I was in my teens and early 20's Well, my wife snooped around one day and found all my pics on my computer and deleted them. Then took the extra effort to find the master DVD's and destroyed those too. Needless to say I was devastated. This happened probably about 2 years ago, and for reasons to be explained just never got around to taking more. The other is a bit more complex, and after looking back now, I wondered why it stopped me. Shortly after this happened with my wife, I was driving home from work one morning. I work a midnight shift job and it was shortly before sunrise. While driving home, I was blind-sided by a car blowing thru an intersection. My car was totally and I thought I was too. Other than being just badly bruised, I also had a broken leg; or so I though. The damage was so severe, they couldn't save it and have to take it right below the knee. This is just one point in my life where I didn't care about anything anymore. I played baseball in highschool and college and had always taken pretty good care of myself. Now, I felt worthless. I didn't want anyone to see me like this and sure dind't want to dress up anymore as I always loved showing off my legs and never wore pants or slacks as Jennifer. Although I started using an artificial leg, it wasn't the same and I stopped dressing altogether. It was only thru the concern of a close friend (who didn't even dress), that got me "back on my feet" and convinced me it was on the inside that mattered more. I started dressing again, but still have a hang-up of letting others see me dressed with only one leg. Maybe I am acting silly. I know I am not the only one like me around, but I hope others understand. I've been accused of being a fake because I only have this one pic. I know perhaps I should have shared this earlier, but does it make a difference how many pics a person has? What about those girls that are so closeted they have no pics and can't risk taking any? Any they fakes? I hope others can understand now why I avoid the issue of pics or keep saying I will get to it, etc. If they can't understand, I hold no judgement. And for those that I wouldn't chat with because they have no pics, I understand perhaps how they feel[3 comments]
Halloween has always been my favorite holiday
Dan™ & Erin™ October 20th, 2008 1:50 pm MDTHalloween has always been my favorite Holiday. Godless heathen that I am, there aren't many holidays that don't have the flavor of one of more gods tainting them. That's all right. I love Solstice decorations, and even some Christmas decorations (I usually have angels on my tree). Easter is fun because of coloring eggs and candy. I guess you could say that I enjoy some holidays that have been co-opted by religions in spite of that. Halloween though has always had a special place in my heart. There isn't a related religious holiday to be seen. It's all about dressing up and having fun. A final harvest festival to usher in the cold snowy months. I just got news that is going to make Halloween even better for me. I just got a notice from the Clerk of the Court of Common Please, Franklin County Ohio, Domestic Division. After six long irritating years of playing silly buggers in the court system, the judge has finally lost patience and is going to grant me an uncontested divorce! My children and I haven't even SEEN their mother is eight years! I always celebrated Halloween in Boston with the drag queens and transvestites. It's always a really fun time. I've been planning a "Bachelor Party" to coincide with my divorce. I think this is going to be an annual event! Anyway, I'm excited. The only fly in the ointment is that I am supposed to be in court at 9 am and my flight for Boston is scheduled for 1:20 pm the same day, so I may have to see about pushing it back. Either way, I'm pretty excited!

What I wrote My Congressman regarding the US Economy
Jon October 1st, 2008 2:11 pm MDTI've been so disgusted listening to the Talking Heads spew bullshit on what needs to be done to get the Economy going again that I decided to write My Congressman. I encourage everyone to do the same, whether your view is in line with mine or diametrically opposed to it. Here's what I wrote My Congressman.
I'm writing to ask you 2 things and also to express my opinion.
1. Please Vote NO on any Tax Payer funded Bailout, of any kind, for Banks and Financial Institutions. As a Tax Payer, I do not want to see my Hard Earned Tax Dollars going to help out Companies or Institutions that have made irresponsible decisions. Large Firms should be treated no differently than Small Firms. If they can't stay afloat on their own, they should be allowed to go under.
2. Do NOT use my Hard Earned Tax Dollars to Subsidize the Mortgages of others. If a person was irresponsible enough to take out a Mortgage larger than they could afford then they should be foreclosed on. People must be held responsible for their actions. It would be grossly unfair to use My Hard Earned Tax Dollars to help pay off someone else's Mortgage. I have a hard enough time paying My Mortgage and My Monthly Bills without the Added Burden of Subsidizing someone else. Taxes are not levied by our Government to Redistribute wealth and it Offends me that it's even being considered.
My opinion on what should happen going forward...
1. Banks should require Substantial Down Payments before rewarding a Mortgage.
2. Banks should Verify Employment and Yearly Income before rewarding a Mortgage.
A comment on 1 and 2 above... This is what Banks always did until Our Government, towards the end of the 1990's, started pushing Banks to loosen their requirements so that more people could own homes. Well, guess what, not everyone can afford to own a home. I think that's pretty clear now and should have been obvious from the beginning.
3. Financial Institutions must be held responsible for the types of Financial Instruments they buy and sell. If they bundle up Worthless Sub Prime Mortgages into Financial Instruments and then can't sell them, well, that's life, they should be stuck with them. If it causes their Collapse, so be it.
To sum it up, Corporations AND Individuals must be held accountable for their actions. Using My and other people's Hard Earned Tax Dollars to Redistribute the Wealth to help the Rich OR the Poor, goes against everything this country stands for and the thought of it makes me sick to my stomach.

Our Commitment Ceremony
Tammie Lynn Huber September 24th, 2008 2:10 pm MDTCommitment Ceremony of Tammie Huber & Debi Johnson
3pm, Saturday, September 20th, 2008
PRELUDE & PROCESSIONAL
OPENING WORDS & PRAYER BY REV. MELODY
On behalf of Tammie and Debi, I welcome you to this celebration of their commitment to each other. We are here to affirm their love of one another, the love and support of other individuals, and their community. Thank you for choosing to spend this day in celebration with them.
Let us pray: Loving Creator, hear our prayers for Tammie and Debi, who today are making a promise to live their lives together in love and respect. Give them your blessing, and bring them into the fullness of a loving relationship of commitment and covenant. May they be living witnesses to Your divine love in the world. Amen.
DECLARATIONS OF INTENT/CONVOCATION
We are gathered here today to celebrate love in the lives of Tammie and Debi. As a part of this celebration the community gains understanding of their intentions and witnesses their vows.
Tammie and Debi, the making of vows and the commitment of two souls to one another is a great leap of faith. It involves caring and giving, learning to share one’s life with another person, forgiving, and enjoying the love and meaning which can be found together. It enables you to share your desires, longings, dreams and memories, and to help each other through uncertain times. It provides mutual support and stability in which you may flourish as a couple and as individuals. It provides a focal point for your friends and your extended family who are gathered here today.
This ceremony is a beginning, not an end, of a journey that will require your constant attention . . . my prayer for you is that you might never take the love you have found for granted in any way and that you will work to grow it more and more deeply as the years go by.
CHARGE TO THE COUPLE
Tammie and Debi, the covenant you are about to make with one another is intended to join you together in a relationship so intimate and personal that it profoundly affects your whole being. It offers you the hope and the promise of a love that is true and mature. However to attain such love, you will have to commit yourselves to each other freely, without reservation, and gladly for the sake of a richer and deeper love together. To attain such love you must each respect the freedom, individuality and dignity of the other, not seeking to change or re-shape the other into your own image or likeness, but rather each of you seeking to change and re-shape your own self in order to give that self more completely to the other in authentic love.
In the presence of community we ask, is it your intention to love and honor each other and share your life together?
Will you stand by each other, at all times, giving respect to one another?
Will you strive to understand each other’s needs and nurture the other as an individual?
Will you cherish and nurture your shared love, now and for eternity?
And… to those who have gathered, will you who witness these vows, do all in your power to support and uphold this union in the years ahead? If so, will you answer, “We will.”
And to those who have gathered, are you willing to join Tammie and Debi, as they take their commitment to social justice for all and the Creator’s all inclusive love out into the world? If so, will you answer, “We will.”
THE VOWS
I now invite you to turn to one another and joining your hands to share your vows.
BLESSING AND EXCHANGE OF RINGS
Holy One, by your grace, send your blessing upon these rings. May they be to Tammie and Debi a symbol of your unending love for them and their own eternal love for each other. May they serve as reminders of the covenant of love and faithfulness they have made to one another this day. Amen.
I bless you with this ring
as a gift and sign of my love for you.
May we always be held together
within the joy, faithfulness, and trust it represents.
I bless you with this ring
as a gift and sign of my love for you.
May we always be held together
within the joy, faithfulness, and trust it represents.
PRAYER OF BLESSING
Let us pray. Most compassionate Creator, we give you thanks for your gracious love and for you consecration of this relationship of love. Through your power, we ask that you pour out the abundance of your blessing upon Tammie and Debi. Defend them from harm. Lead them into prosperity and peace. Let their love for each other be a seal upon their hearts, their minds and their Spirits. Bless them in their work and in their companionship; in their sleeping and in their waking; in their joys and in their sorrows; and in their journey though life together. Amen.
SEALING OF VOWS
Tammie and Debi, for as much as you have given yourself to each other with your vows and have declared your love for one another with these rings, in the presence of the Holy One and all who are here, and by the authority invested in me by God and Metropolitan Community Churches, I joyfully pronounce you now and forever joined in Holy Union. Those who God has blessed, let no person, government or church seek to separate.
You may now seal your vows with a kiss.
INTRODUCTION OF COUPLE
I present to you Tammie and Debi wedded by vows, by the exchange of rings, and by our Creator
