Some healing time

I got out and socialized yesterday afternoon, and wow did it do me good. I got to catch up visiting with people I haven't seen in (in most cases) five years or more. We talked shop (catching up on shared industry gossip is always fun), and personal news, and random bits of commentary, and tag-team snarking at the video game play, and the whole deal.

Now, I went without any feminine presentation at all. Clean-shaven and with new clothes, yes, but really thoroughly in guy mode. Even so, in addition to several delighted comments from old friends about me looking a lot happier, I got two separate comments about how I'm looking younger. That's a very pleasing sort of thought to take with me to the intake interview on Tuesday.
