Lot’s of cool site news to talk about this week. First up though, some pics from this week’s Halloween update.

Delia's gothy tgirl Queen of Hearts

Here’s a twitpic that I posted as well: http://twitpic.com/mp9p1

Love these feather lashes

192 pictures available now in my Members-Only area.

It’s what I’ve been calling the tgirl goth version of the Queen of Hearts. After seeing the preview for Tim Burton’s adaptation of Alice in Wonderland I thought it would be a good time to pull out this costume. It’s kind of funny, when I was decorating for this set I almost didn’t use the plastic couch cover. It was too big for our love seat so I had a hard time trying to get it to look right. So I was about to ditch it and try something else. I’m glad I didn’t because it actually looks pretty good in most of the pictures. The feather eye lashes were one of my favorite things about this costume. Every time I blinked they would flutter around.

Reminder: Halloween is also my birthday – if anyone is wondering what I REALLY want for my birthday this year, the answer is BOOBS!!! It’s something that I’m really hoping to have the funds for by the new year, so every bit helps

ZIPS
I’ve had a lot of requests from people over the years to have zipped files of my picture sets available. I’ve had a few reservations about doing it but it seems to be a norm nowadays in the industry and almost expected from any adult website. So last week I finished zipping up all my high resolution (1600 pixels on the long side) picture sets on DeliaTS.com and they are now available in my members-only area.

Trixie And Friends
I’m usually pretty good about posting what  is going on in the members area here on my blog, but I do tend to miss a few things here and there.  Also I think sometimes people don’t realize all the new content that is going up on the other sites that you get access to when you join my site.  So now you can find out what is going on with all of our sites on one spot – TrixieAndFriends.  For  more details check out this post from Trixie’s blog.

Cam Shows
I’ll be doing two hour long cam shows this week on Friday the 30th and Saturday the 31st/Halloween/My Birthday.  Members should check the calendar for details.

Keep an eye out for more Halloween hootenanny!!!

Last Thursday I made the trip down to the little clinic that I have been getting my laser hair removal done, about an hours drive from here. Upon arriving I found out that not only did they not have me down for an appointment, but that they also were no longer doing laser hair removal. It’s kind of strange because I sat there and watched them schedule me and made them write it down on a card for me so I wouldn’t forget. So I’m assuming they stopped doing laser for whatever reason and just wiped out my appointment without bothering to tell me. Pretty lame. Looks like I’ll have to search around for another place. It’s a real bummer because I really like the treatments I was getting there and probably only need a few more to be all cleared up.

Trixie and I made the best of the situation though and did some shopping. We bought a bunch of new panties to shoot in, some Halloween decorations for an upcoming shoot, a crock pot (I’ve been wanting one for a long time so I’m really excited about it), and a new bed for our dog.

Nico was having a lot of problems with her old bed. It was a round bed with thick cushioning around the edges and a pillowy bed in the center (thus the name – Bagel Bed). She was having problems getting comfortable and would circle around and around whimpering as she went. Sometimes she would settle on the edge then flop out of it. It was really sad and painful to see and hear.

So her new bed is a lot bigger and rectangle shaped. I was a little worried that it was going to be too puffy for her but it seems to be matting down a bit already. It took a little trial and error but I think she is starting to find the “sweet spot” in the middle and seems SO much more comfortable and happy It makes me wonder though if being curled up in a tight little ball in her old bed might have been actually causing or exacerbating some of the nerve damage that was effecting her hind legs. She is doing a lot better lately and seems to be getting around a lot more easily these days. She also just finished the prednisone cycle that the vet prescribed so I’m sure that helps too.

Yesterday I did my first cam show on the girls side of Amateur CamZ (which is now merged with Private CamZ). When I first signed up to CamZ I was doing shows for my guy site and my crossdressing site. And since they are only set up on the binary (either guy or girl, no transgender) I did all my shows on the guy side. There are actually only a few guys that do shows there and I was the only transgender person doing shows there for a long time (There was one post op transsexual that was doing shows on the girls side for a little while.). After I began my transition I felt less and less comfortable doing shows on “Guy CamZ”. It just didn’t make sense anymore.

The shows on the girls side get a lot more traffic, popular girls can have over a thousand viewers during a show. Thus the chat rooms are much more lively and consequently there tend to be more obnoxious assholes in chat as well. With the smaller shows on the guys side the chat is usually pretty slow and they don’t provide an admin so you have to manage your own chat while doing a show. So having an admin is definitely a plus as well as getting a lot more exposure. People still come in to chat just stir things up or WILL act astonished or disgusted about seeing a penis on a girl (Even though it clearly states that I am trans/shemale/tgirl on the show description). But yesterday the cam cop was right on top of it booting people left and right.

I have mixed feelings about doing shows there for a lot of other reasons that I don’t really want to go into. But for now I think it’s going to be a good thing.

Autumn has always been my favorite season.  Summer always seems to drag on too long for me and by end of August I am usually looking forward to the shorter, cooler Autumn days.  Living this far north I really notice the shift in the sun.  Sunlight begins to fill our living room with it’s large south facing windows and sunsets become a little more dramatic.

These are a few pictures from my Fall Fairy shoot that I’ll be posting on Saturday.  I think they turned out really cute.  It’s amazing what a difference a simple little thing like a sparkly flower in your hair can make in a shoot.

I always looked forward to Halloween and my birthday as a kid and a lot of that enthusiasm carried over into adulthood.  For quite a few years my birthday party would include a trip to the local haunted house that a charity group put together every year.  It’s amazing how black lights and a few strobe lights carefully timed to someone sneaking up behind you and screaming like a mad man can scare the bejeezus out of you as a kid (and probably still as an adult).

So this is my little tribute to Autumn.  I’ll be doing a few other specially  themed shoots for fall and Halloween.  So be looking for them in upcoming days & weeks.

Yay!!! We got our final approval from Visa this morning and DeliaTS.com is officially open for business. Most of the changes are cosmetic in nature. The main drive to start a new site was a desire to reflect my own transition and subsequent shift in identifying as a crossdressing male to a transsexual female. The title DeliaCD just didn’t really make sense anymore and I think it was starting to really confuse people.

People don’t always realize how much goes into creating our sites. Trixie did all the design work, layout, and graphics herself. She deserves a ton of credit for creating a beautiful looking tour that is chocked full of keywords and carefully placed pictures and graphics. The members area is even nicer! Again great graphics and design work and easy to navigate. All this while shooting fresh content for my weekly updates and modeling for her own site. Not to mention doing cam shows and dealing with billing companies, members, etc.

Okay, it’s not like I was just laying on the couch scarfing down bon bons the whole time. We do work as a team on a lot of things. I ended up working on moving content over and reformatting it to fit the new design. And other little things like the preview video. Oh yeah, I did the redesign here for the my blog too. Anyway, I hope you like the new design as much as I do

**Reminder for Members: Cam shows on Friday and Saturday see calendar for details.

I made this vlog a few weeks back just after my first year on HRT.  I post the longer versions with nudity in my members area and I usually post a g-rated version for YouTube.

For some reason YouTube always grabs the worst frames for my preview. I wish there was a way you could make your own preview pic. My voice sounds a little Micky Mouse-ish at times but it’s getting there. I’ve been trying to do at least a half an hour of vocal exercises everyday sometimes a bit more.

So after initially coming out to my parents they’ve had a little bit of a backlash. We’ve exchanged a few emails and I’ve talked to my mom a few times since coming out to them. They’re still in a bit of shock and denial I think. They’ve done a few annoying things like sending me Christian Science literature in a package with my boy name written in big letters and continuing to send email to my old address (which was also my boy name) instead of my new one (which they have and is also my new name). But overall I think it’s going really well and they’re even talking about flying out here next month for my birthday. I think once they actually see me and we get to spend some time together it will make things a little easier for them to comprehend.

I did make a little video for them just so they could have a better idea of how I look and sound these days. They haven’t said anything about it so I don’t even know if they’ve looked at it yet. Oh well, time will tell.

People keep asking me when the new site will be up and the best answer I have at this point is soon.  It’s been a real challenge doing all the things that I do already for DeliaCD and working on DeliaTS at the same time.  Trixie has been doing most of the design work while I’ve been working on getting all the content ready (building photo galleries and video pages)  and plugging things  in where they need to go.   We’re almost ready to submit it to our billing company (CCBill) for approval, which shouldn’t take too long.  I’m getting really excited!  It’s gonna be finger lickin’ good

I’ve been pretty consumed these last few weeks, pushing to get everything in order.  I tend to hyper focus on tasks like that and end up letting other important things fall to the wayside a bit.   Things like:  sleeping, cooking, cleaning, personal hygiene, they all take more of a back seat.

I’m really glad that we’ll be getting out of town for a few days to do some shoots at a rustic cabin.  Though it will still be work, it will at least take me away from the computer for awhile and will be a welcomed shift in focus.  I just hope the weather holds up for us!

I’ll leave you with this parting shot:

Things are really starting to look up!
