Had a very funny moment at the bank today. Went in to get some cash out for my mom, and the teller starts asking me my address and phone number, and suddenly I realize she is seeing my male name come up on the card and I'm wearing a skirt. So I tell her I'm transitioning, give her the information she needs to verify I'm me, and I get my cash.

Makes me wish I could afford to do the name change, but ah, well.

At least I got a funny story out of it.

I go to the bank...

I make a trip to the bank about once a month. I almost always go on a Saturday, nearly always wearing very feminine clothes. All the tellers recognize me and know that I'm there for a cashier's check to pay my rent. The one who waits on me most often calls me by my male name on sight and if I come in on a week day asks if I had to work on Saturday. While it's a bit disconcerting to be called a male name on while dressed a feminine as I get, but she's only calling me what comes up on the screen when I swipe my bank card. She's otherwise a pleasant person and give excellent service. I totally enjoy my trips to the bank.

Happiness is being all dressed up and HAVING some place to go.
