FIRSTS



Yesterday was a day of many firsts. To begin---It was my FIRST time at a hand specialist and my FIRST time of hearing the words "you need surgery." On Friday I will partake in my FIRST invasive surgery when the FIRST screw to ever enter my body will be placed in my scaphoid bone to hold the two pieces together allowing for it to *hopefully* heal and work again.
Yesterday was also my FIRST day of work at the Walnut Street Theatre as the audience services apprentice. It felt really great to be at the theatre again and for the FIRST time in months my job placement felt right.
Last night was also my FIRST time at a gay bar. I went to support the crew of the Fringe Show "Debbie Does Dallas the Musical." They were having a quizzo night to raise money for their production. Sara May and I played "Debbie Does Quizzo" together. It was a rather naughty game with questions that left my sweet sweet self blushing a bit. Funny though, Miss May and I won round two in which I received my FIRST sex toy as a prize. I blushed a little more as they handed the buzzing bunny on a keychain to me along with a tube of some sort of lubrication but of course in good fun I posed with my teammate for a photo with our prizes. I then proceeded to drink my FIRST drink called a Madra or something to that effect.
Following the game of quizzo I spent my FIRST night at Arizona, Rachel and Dalice's new place. Which of course led to my FIRST time going into work this morning wearing a lot of the same clothes I wore yesterday...Luckily Arizona used to be the one who lived far from everyone else and always used to stay at my place and borrow my clothing and so when I looked in her closet this morning for a shirt to wear...I found one of MY own shirts and wore it.
Over the weekend I endured a couple of other firsts like getting my FIRST ER bill, my FIRST moment of "I might have to move home," my FIRST full out breakdown in Philadelphia and my FIRST time of having to fight an insurance company...but I'm fine now and I am staying in Philadelphia so it's okay. Yesterday I also found a place to live but for the FIRST time in my life I'm going to be homeless for a short period of time and will be hopping couches and beds for the month of September. I think it's going to be a fun adventure though so wish me luck.
Ah FIRSTS are always an adventure.

You forgot to mention "first time a lesbian gave me her phone number in a gay bar while Arizona pretended to act all scandalized".

A few days ago I played my first game of pool during which I didn't suck.

I hope you are well. Sounds like an eventful time in the City of Otherly Love.
