    Not really much to report on Friday.  Good news was that my schedule got shuffled yet again (I swear this trip has been absolutely ridiculous in that regard!) so I was free by late afternoon.  I thought I’d go over to the Hillsdale Mall in San Mateo.  Tunic and leggings, check.  But on this trip I learned a very important lesson about Hue “skinny leggings”.  In brief, they don’t fit me.  They were riding down the entire time I was there!  Mercifully it didn’t show thanks to the tunic (believe…

OK I promise this will be the last Trek photo.  Many, many thanks to Rita Knight for the full body shot!  (BTW it looks better in the larger sizes…)

    Last night was great fun after a wretched flight to SF.  Well over two hours late, which meant a fair amount of schedule-shuffling before I could get to the hotel and get ready to see Lena.  Fortunately, a night of hanging and a careful job packing meant that one of my nice outfits was in good enough shape to wear.  I got ready and headed over to St. Michael’s Alley, a great little restaurant in Palo Alto.

    When I googled the address, I realized that St. Michael’s had moved - it was now in a…

    Another flight, another blog entry.  Sorry it has been a while.  Not much to report from Erica-land.  All things trans seem to be moving along pretty smoothly.  The painting, etc. for the new apartment are nearly done, so I’ll be migrating the home base from West Village to Chelsea in a few weeks.  It will be fun to explore such a vibrant new area!  (Plus I am only about 1/2 mile walk away from Macys!!!!)

    This has been a goofy trip.  I was supposed to be in California for a week, but at the…

    Lots of interesting stuff to note, and not enough time.  I am very glad I came.  On the basis of today alone the trip was worth it.

    Got to meet (in person, finally) Robin, Jenny and Nicole.  Had a couple nice exchanges with Jenney Boylan who did a great show.  Lots more socializing.

    An interesting high point: Chloe Prince (the Pink One herself) came over to introduce herself at the bar.  (For those of you who do not follow my every breath:) I had pretty harshly criticized her at the MHB forum…

    Well, as I’ve mentioned below I have been experimenting with Studio Fix foundation instead of the heavier/more saturated Studio Tech.  Studio Tech has been my mainstay for the last year or so.  Very nearly every photo I’ve posted has featured it prominently.  (And Studio Tech itself was a lighter improvement from the full coverage foundation before that!)  I think I have now sorted out the color correction.  I had a chance to compare and contrast the N4 and N5 shades within a few days of one…
