Sometimes Steffi

I've been on assignment in Melbourne Florida for 3 weeks now, staying 2 weeks at a time and just going home for the weekend. I wasn't sure if it would be safe for going out as Steffi, but I brought some clothes along for her in case things worked out.
There's no way that I can fly pretty, because my wife drops me off at the airport, and she doesn't want to see Steffi. I decided to bring my forms in my carry-on bag, because they are kind of expensive and I didn't want to trust them in checked baggage. I knew that I had every right to bring them, but I kind of expected to have problems with TSA, so I brought my "A" game.
As my bags are going through the X-Ray machine, I see them going back and forth, so I knew it was time to "man up". One of the TSA agents came to me and asked me if the bag was my bag. I told him that I knew what he was seeing. I told him there were a pair of breast forms in the bag. He said OK, but I need to see them. And before I even asked, he asked me if I would like a private screening. For some reason, he needed a second agent in the screening room, but he treated me very professionally. He didn't look at me in a snarky way, and didn't ask anything about whose forms they were. He checked out the forms, and then he went through my bags of jewelry. He even allowed me time to repack my bag so everything fit.
So, no problem at all. I even thanked him for his professionalism.
