So I'm here, just a pair of months shy of the one year anniversary of my visit to Dr. Brassard and his lovely staff. And some might ask why I would just show up here now, when most of the nuts and bolts of transition have long since been laid to rest or put to better use. The thing of it is, most of my life has little or nothing to do with being trans. It's something I am and a part of me. I'm very out. A mere google of my name will tell you that I write books, but delve a little deeper and you'll find, perhaps, an article I wrote about being trans for a magazine or an interview I did where it was a subject. Find me at work and they all know because I transitioned there, but now, almost two years later, it's rarely spoken of...
And that's the thing, really. It's rarely spoken of and there are times I want to chat about it with people who want to chat about it. Most of my trans friends are where I am or beyond and they don't want to talk about it and I understand. There are times I don't either. Living takes a lot of energy and after GRS, I found that the energy I put into transition had a place to go after all.
But I'm here at Susan's because it seems a nice place to chat about being trans and the kind of deeper meaning of that. It's not just a physical transition. There's more to it and I'm still figuring it out a little at a time. I hope you don't mind me staying for a bit.
