Dearest Jamie Michelle,
You are SO very welcome, sweet one. I am so happy you enjoyed the audio. Goodness knows I loved recording it and penning the series that accompanied it. :)
While that pleases me, I am far, FAR happier that you are wed to and sharing a life with the man you love. Love is not earmarked only for people who neatly fit into the mold of some rigid, biased, unfair, and outdated notion referred to as "traditional," meaning "how it SHOULD be". How love SHOULD be is a bond between ANY two committed individuals who hold each other in such high esteem and feel such affection that they want to spend their lives together. THAT is how love SHOULD be.
...And how about this woman Courtney! What a gem!! Isn't it strange how someone can appear in your life at just the right time, in just the right moment? I am so glad she was there and helped you realize being officially united with your love. My hat is off to her!
"To me, what seems to me to be most important is how a situation strikes my soul. I wanted to marry my man, and that's that."
See now, THAT is love! It's not how it looks, where it takes place or how it is dressed; it's all about that feeling you get in your heart of hearts. The details are merely window dressing for the profound sentiment you experience.
"You see, I live a miracle-filled life. The things which seem to hurt at first wind up being the greatest things to ever happen. Humans often hate me, but it would appear that the universe adores me."
You better believe that's right! Sometimes it's those things that at first make you feel hurt, fear, disdain, sometimes even strong dislike or disgust that end up going in exactly the opposite direction. That's why I always go on about never saying "never".
By the way, anyone who doesn't like you isn't worth the time of day. The way I see it, it's their loss. You are a beautiful, caring, thoughtful person, and you deserve the best of everything. I wish you only happiness, joy, and all the love you can handle - and may you and your (very lucky!) man enjoy a long and beautiful life together. Congratulations to you both!! :)
Thank you for your very nice reply, Empress EmmaJane!
I've made your recording "Seasons of the Sissy Bride" my and my husband's official mistress audio! Teehee.
Our official couple's song is the 1970 song "Lola" by The Kinks. My husband is a walking encyclopedia set of classic rock and country music knowledge. It's hard to stump him! And my man plays guitar and drums.
Here's our song:

The following are the song's lyrics:
----------
I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Coca-Cola
See-oh-el-aye Cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola
El-oh-el-aye Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
Well I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my Lola, la-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said Dear boy won't you come home with me
Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
Lola, la-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me
Well that's the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed-up, muddled-up, shook-up world except for Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Well I left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said Dear boy I'm gonna make you a man
Well I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
La-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
Lola, la-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
