For how could I ever ask someone to love me as a woman for my body, if I can't even love my body as a woman for myself?

Caleb and I watched the 3rd Episode of Orange is the New Black. And I found it really hard to watch because Sophia Burset's relationship with her wife was so close to mine. Well, Before she went to prison.

Just back from BiCon.

Happy - I met some lovely people over this weekend at BiCon.

Unhappy - Having to say goodbye to them. Also, some of the seminars were very emotionally intense.

Since I've been friendly with my estranged husband lately, he wanted to know if I was still going to divorce him. . . I basically said I'd be fine being friends living together but that I couldn't see us as more than friends. Made me unhappy: I hate hurting people's feelings, Made me happy: being honest even though it can be hard, because I know ultimately I'd never be able to give him what he needs, and I'd be tied down in a relationship that I didn't want.

Happy: I finally had my turbinoplasty.

Unhappy: They did not told me I would be hospitalized for half a day. Including removing my piercings, one of those hospital gowns that rob you of your dignity and to be transported in bed.


But what was the cherry on top was waking up and and discoverin that my "boobs" were completely exposed. Well, more like "perky teenager nipples", but still, since I was in male mode that day... Light speed cover. and quite red in front of the nurse.

Don't think that is necessarily the way she will always feel, hon. Sometimes people immediately react upon being given information without actually thinking anything through. Running on instinct, or emotion. Give it some time, and don't give up. That she doesn't understand isn't necessarily an indicator that she never will. You've taken a big step and regardless of how she took it, you should be very proud of yourself. I'm proud of you. :)

Cleaning out my spare room, am old friend is coming to stay with me for a while.

It is good that he is coming to visit.

It REALLY sucks trying to figure out what to do with all the crap I threw in my spare room.

i feel you girl. In the same situation right now.....

Happy: Nose it's starting to work

Unhappy. A lot of "things" are coming out of it, non stop. A LOT.

I was 'there' for a friend when her husband died. She sent me a thank you card.   That's cool.

My name was in quotation marks.  :(

Did you find the snow shovel that's been missing? (J/K, congratz on your turbinoplasty.  What was the old cartoon "Nose, Nose, anything goes, turn into a (as required)?)

The "uncovered" hospital stay happened to me 30 years ago with a motorcycle wreck, only I was out cold for 3 days when my friend finally came to visit and said I was spread eagle, exposed for all the world to see.  At least I wasn't awake for it.
.

Public healthcare paid from my taxes, so luckily I didn't have to pay anything... Can't say the same for the meds, though. The dreaded "copago farmacéutico" has raised the costs so much that every time I pick my pills for the knee I tremble in fear.

Happy:  The online pharmacy I decided to try finally changed my order status to "shipped" after a week

Unhappy: Delivery requires 2 to 4 weeks.  I need this in 1.5 weeks.  poop.  I'm screwed.

I know that feeling... Now it's less of a problem with my current provider and ordering one month before I run out, but I have had my fair share of these, both online and with physical pharmacies...



Happy: three girls in a mall shopping like there is no tomorrow!

Unhappy: Spent more than the specified budget, and I still need two more items to make it work. Damn.

They called to confirm my appointment to get my first T prescription for tomorrow and some of the information was mixed up. I was nervous about it messing things up while talking to sort it out, and I think I came across as angry to the person on the phone. Everything is fine though, but I hope I didn't seem rude.

DeeperThanSwords

Had to come home from what was supposed to be a working weekend at a music festival, as the first night shift broke me to the point that I wasn't going to be any use to anyone. Between the physical strain, the strange environment, and the transphobic comments from drunk punters, I couldn't cope.

On the plus side, I got to come home, where I feel safe.

I hope not, liver isn't a food, it's guts.
Liver is a very good food, with gravy and onions, its probably the best food you can eat despite its function within the body it was removed from. 

Now, I'm hungry...
