HI!!

1.  It's time to give back.

2.  Questions and issues still come up from time to time.

3.  We are a family and it's nice to go home now and then.  If only to get a hug...

Hugs Girl...

I have given back. I even went to Washington DC to lobby for more inclusive rights for us. Plus I have been here for quite some time. just under various names.

I see many questions that pop up continually that can be answered with a bit of searching of the threads.

And I'm not counting people as family anymore. they just break your heart, leave, or die on you. Not dealing with it anymore.


On a separate note, I just noticed that my body looks more like someone who has XXY Klinefelter's Sydrome, looking at a couple of medical pictures. o.O ha ha..... that's kind of fascinating actually. Wish I had paid more attention to my naked body when I was still male. then I could have compared the effects of HRT on my body a little better.

I wish this trip was over and I could be home in my little nest w/ the things that comfort me, away from the people who'll never accept me... Where I can cry in peace and not be told to toughen up because I'm a....

Playing pretend gets harder and harder every day, doesn't it? T_T

Thinking about New Years resolutions. I don't have any. Normally a few things pop into my mind that I'm unhappy with, but it seems like, for the most part, I'm happy with myself and don't want to change much. Well, I do have the goal of being less wasteful this year - finding ways to make less trash, use less water/electricity/gas...but that's it. Really my only goal for the moment is to save money to pay off surgery, and I've succeeded in being frugal and picking up extra work. So it really isn't even an issue, more just a matter of time and keeping up with the extra hours.

I get so sick of hearing/reading that "money is the root of all evil". That's a total crock. Money isn't the root of all evil. HUMANITY is the root of all evil.

Avoid relationships with taken women. we only cause you heartache. that would be my suggestion for you anyway. not saying that in a mean way or being condescending, just saying it's not been good on you. eat healthy, exercise, spend more time with family, hang out more with your buddies... these are all good goals too.

Too true.

Even if you wanted to follow that old cliche, humans invented money and capitalism, so it logically follows that any evil one wishes to attribute to money is the result of humans....

played about re-writing "The one that got away" to fit mine and Caleb's relationship. I think it works.

I came out to my Family! 
I hope things will keep going well.

That is the truth.

I feel like by the time I'm 30 I'm going to be robotic... just full of surgeries man. I'm getting two cosmetic limb lengthening procedures to gain 5inches of height. I'll eventually get top and bottom surgery. I'm getting a laser treatment to change my eye color in a few years. Geez

I don't think that my voice therapy is getting anywhere... My voice range is deep baritone to...deep baritone...

I also think that I cry too much. Shouldn't the rampant emotions start after HRT begins, not before?

I'm glad I got new clothes for Christmas. My clothing situation was getting pretty dire...I got new sweaters so I got rid of my old baggy one. I got new PJ pants so I got rid of an older pair. I haven't been able to part with my ratty t-shirts yet even though I have enough, because they're nice for sitting around the house. Sock condition is OK, as I got a value pack 20 for $10, but the underwear situation is abysmal and no one bought me underwear for Christmas. Most of them have holes and the elastic is worn out. o.O

*sigh* I may just have to bite the bullet and buy new underwear. It's not like I have a reason to be cheap. Surgery payment is due in 6 weeks, I have 4 grand saved. I told my brother that despite all my overtime, I'll still be about $2000 shy for surgery when payment time comes because I only get paid monthly. He told me he'd lend me the 2 grand, and I'll pay him back with my tax refund, which will be at least 2 grand. He says that he trusts I will pay him back as soon as I have the tax money, which is really nice of him.

[Rainbow Dash]

Look Caleb! if you want to bite the bullet, freakin talk to me. What size do you need? You've helped me enough times, at least let me help you!

I would put this in a PM but you ignore them too.

There are plenty of people out there who are not even remotely evil, but there definitely has been plenty of evil perpetrated due to a perceived LACK of money.

That's kind of you but I don't need help really, I'm mostly just being cheap as dirt lol.

So yesterday, I went to Olive Garden with a friend and he invited 2 other people to join us. One is Androgene the  is trans. We had a wonderful time but what amazed me was, she asked me how I knew my friend and if I ws a trans supporter? I looked at her funny and said, "Noooo...."

"Okay... Hater?"

"No....."

"...... wait, are you..?"

".. Yea!"

How is it my own people can't tell? I think I look like crap and that it's obvious to us! lol

But I made 2 new friends, so I'm happy.

Also,
People here think I am a confidant woman. I'm really not. just stubborn.

I'm wondering if it would be too audacious to keep a bag of stuff at work. I'm going to be working a lot of long shifts up until surgery which means I often have to shower there. Like would anyone object if I had a bag with some clothes that I washed with the company's machine, along with a bag of shampoo, shaving cream, etc? I spend a lot of time packing every time I go in for a long haul, and it would be nice to just be able to go straight there with only my phone, wallet, and keys.

I also have to wonder why I'm spending so much mental energy debating such a simple decision. What wasted potential. I mean, no one is going to fire me for keeping a bag of stuff there. I've also received approval to use the showers and the washing machine lol.

[Rainbow Dash]

I would say go for it. Are you driving to work?
