So about two weeks ago I got hit by the flu hard. I've never taken a flu shot and I rarely get more then a light cold in the winter flu season. I'm sure I've had the flu before but this was the worst I can remember. It hit me Saturday but I got up and exercised and figured I'd fight my way through it. Sunday I was a total mess, couldn't get out of bed. Called in Monday, first time I've called into work sick in my life. Went to work Tuesday and Wednesday though it was a terrible idea, I was mostly just a zombie. Took the rest of the week off and didn't really feel better until Monday.
So the entire time I was sick any thoughts of dressing up, desires for feminine trappings, all that stuff was gone. I didn't really get those feelings until this weekend, and especially today. My wife was sick and called into work, and I've been frustrated all day that I couldn't dress up.
Anyway, this just goes on to reinforce my theory, I'm a fair weather crossdresser. Everything has to be hunky dory in my life then boom, it hits me, I want to be a girl, otherwise I don't even think of it.
