I don't use Flickr mail so no point sending me email messages because I won't respond. Flickr is just a picture share place for me and my friends.

OK so to me!

I don't know how to say this...but I'm kind of a big deal! I have a date tonight, so I'm wearing Sex Panther by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries, oh yeah! It contains parts of real Panther...so you know its gooood! Its quite an aroma & it sure lures my prey in...actually studies have shown that 60% of the time, it works ALL of the time ;-)

So, to me? Well the details of my life are quite....incon-se-quential...oh very well, where shall I begin?

I'm Candi Store. People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of heels. Years later, a doctor will tell me that I have an I.Q. of 48 and am what some people call "mentally retarded", but I like to consider myself as "special" (needs!) Actually thats a lie I'm officially classified as 'too clever for your own good' you will know if you qualify for this accolade because you are generally rewarded with a bloodied nose or in my case a sore bottom.....NO guttersnipes lift your minds up higher than that please!

I know of love, I was in love once...he was Brazilian...or chinese? or something weird. Anyway, I met him in the restroom of a Motorway service station...Toddington, do you know it? Nice M&S...anyway we made out for hours. Then we parted ways, never to see each other again. His name was Brick or Champ or something, Hey I don't know because I don't speak Spanish!

So, I'll tell you about my family, I'm the youngest of three, both my parents are older. I have mixed race parents, my father prefers the 100m & my mother is Swahili. I was raised by my father...my mother left before I was born. I liked being raised by my father he was schizophrenic...but he was good people! Ahh I remember one summer I was five & he was...Mussolini!

Apparently my profile does say enough about me? Certain individuals think I should expose (!) more about myself, why? this is just a freakin social network site not a bloody psychiatrists couch, besides it ain't my head most people want to get into!!! Anyway, everything else about my life is just that...MINE...I share with those who I value & who value me, you know them as friends, but to show I'm not a total bitch I shall relent a little:

I will tell you a bit about myself.. I’m a very quiet and secretive person, and that’s it really.

I am a 42yr old pre-op transgendered woman, in that I am female in a male body..not in a weird congenital twin kinda way.... but I will need surgery to resolve this rather unfortunate of circumstances. I just wish I could have opted for the "return to the supplier within the 28 day period & get a full refund or exchange", I was thinking something like Milla Jovovitch, Kylie or maybe Cheryl Cole? As it is I didn't, so I have had to endure, & continue to endure, hours of permanent facial hair removal, I'm on feminizing hormone therapy, I (used to) work out a lot, I watch what I eat...err and drink...in that I always keep my eyes open whilst drinking in particular! to keep my weight in check-ish, I have a strict beauty regime...I didn't say it was good, just thorough! Whilst I'm not signed up to any female deportment classes I do study female behaviour & movement in an attempt to create my own feminine style that I'm comfortable with....so please know that I don't walk like Rob the Trucker, or sit "legs akimbo" - who were a great variety act btw! And don't even get me started on the bloody surgery I'm gonna need! Tut!

I have told my family & the friends that I truly value and their reactions have ranged from bored indifference - like tell me something I DIDN'T know....really?..... through to full on embracing of the person that is Candi. I'm not naive and know that the further I progress the more difficult it will be for those I care about to deal with...especially my siblings. I have to say that my Mum has been amazing & has given me so much strength by her honest reaction towards me....after initially blaming herself she blamed me for not telling her when I was a teenager...I got a right telling off I can tell you! The important thing is she has been great, we even went on a 'mother/daughter spa day' all the therapists thought I was such a sweet boy for going with my mum - you know that patronising way that women talk to men - my mum boldly told them I was a 'transsexist' in that way that women of a certain age can and do flout all the unwritten rules of polite society. So I went from uncomfortable man having facials to one of the girls in an instant, which was nice :-)

Money wise I'm set for life....provided I die next Tuesday. I'm a single (with no desire to change that for now) fun-loving girl who likes to shop-a-lot! I love to party with friends. I enjoy clubbing, shopping, eating out, shopping, oh did I mention shopping?, shopping, trips to the theatre, shopping & long walks in the country....but I'm equally happy gossiping with the girls over lunch, with maybe a little shopping, cooking meals for friends or snuggling up on the sofa to watch a tear jerker and a laptop to do some internet shopping with popcorn n wine.

I'm pansexual (look it up!), which means I'm greedy as I like some boys & some girls....the emphasis on some, I don't jump into the sack with any old Tom, Dick or Sally! I do like to laugh at myself, well when I say myself I mean OTHER PEOPLE & when I say laugh I actually mean KILL! :-D

Profile police requirements: Brown eyes, naturally brown wavy & currently shoulder length hair, slim, right handed (but can multi-task ;-P), literate, good teeth (a bargain actually!), solvent (abuser), spontaneous (if given enough notice), wild (wild? I was livid!), (artificially) intelligent, funny (looking)...Oh and guys! I'm 5ft 11in & love wearing high heels & like my men to be at least eye-level! You may very well be cute & funny but if you are below 6 foot ooh then I ain't interested so jog on!

Currently I have a penchant for body piercings:ears, bellybutton, nape & hips, less permanent than tats....ooh now theres an idea?

OH and finally....for the record, I'm not one of those stuck up her own arse type girls who ban everyone from talking to them.
