April 22, 2015, the day of my first face to face pass in gender neutral clothes and no makeup. It may be months to the next one, but I'm good with that!

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.

Today I went to Sephora to get more color corrector and to look at powder foundations. The person who assisted me made a point of commenting on how nice my skin is.

I wondered what happened to a boy who lived near me, I found out he'd become a decorated Army officer & now retired with his beautiful wife. You deserved a good life, you were a great kid who  grew into a great man

A lot of internal acceptance and love for me. Just feeling happy in general actually

Taking my depression and converting it into anger. (What? What's happy about that? Wait for it....) Then, taking that anger and funneling that into a couple of my more "musical" Noise projects. Bonus: I got the idea to resurrect a couple of projects that have been dormant for a few years. Hey, I had to get something positive out of this day. The last couple of days were depressing as it is. (That had nothing to do with current events) Now, I'm nice and relaxed and in a good mood.

This happened Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning. (I've been busy!) Just before dinner on Tuesday the director of my agency called me to see how I'm getting on. We talked about the slowness (nobody's fault) of filling my schedule with clients and the amount of time I have to drive (I cover six counties) between clients because it's hard to schedule so that I see clients who are near each other on the same day. He said he was leaving on vacation the next day but promised we'd resolve both of those when he returns.

The next day I was with a client and noticed he had called and left a message. I don't like to take messages when I'm with a client but I had to take this one. The message was that he was going to put a thousand dollar loan in my check next Monday to be paid back $50 every two weeks unless I called and told him no. I cried! He said it was to help me get through the transition to full time.

I work for and with such wonderful people!

My personal transition path included medical changes.  The path others take may require no medical intervention, or different care.  We each find our own path. I provide these dates for the curious.

^ Cool beans.

Speaking of cool....

We are finally cooling down around here.

This is a good thing.

I HATE warmer weather during the winter months. It's just not natural and it freaks me out.

BUT, if we had a cool summer, I wouldn't complain one bit. I would love that.

I was wearing a tight long sleeved blouse today. My client complimented me on my curves and my "large rack".  No, she was NOT coming on to me!

Half of the people at my new workplace don't know I'm Trans the other half do, but really haven't said anything negative about it. Alot of the women are somewhat jealous with my attributes LMAO. And of lately I've been getting compliments and I guess Booty Call. I'm not sure I like the attention, but I'm really liking what's happening! xD

3 month blood work all fine, cell count fine so no bloodletting for me, blood pressure returned to normal since starting T. This is all good news considering how bad a shape I felt before starting. Guess I was slowly killing myself through deprivation.

I have a close friend who I've been in love with for quite some time now. He knows, he doesn't reciprocate, we're still friends, it's not a big deal. Anyway, I mentioned to him recently that I was getting on testosterone soon, and he was glad for me. He's straight, and he said because he's straight he wouldn't be interested in getting together (if you know what I mean). I was a lot more okay with it than I thought I would be.

I think I realize, deep down, that if we were dating, he (like most men) would want to restrict my transition, and I feel so lucky that we're friends and that he can accept me for who I am. I think that's what love is.

I am beginning to accept my identity as a solo person outside of the confines of a dating relationship. For the past decade, I was always dating somebody, and when I wasn't dating somebody, I was formulating attack plans for all my crushes. So it's nice to just focus on myself for a change.

Anyway, I was just thinking on this today, and it made me happy, so there's my "what made me happy" for today.

Randi went clothes shopping with me yesterday. She talked me into a more expensive pair of jeans than I intended and a pretty blouse. (Pictures maybe on Tuesday when I wear them to see the endocrinologist.)

Ok, not trans* related, but it was just the ignition coil on my MINI that went out and not a blown head gasket.  Whew!!!  $106 to repair.  2ez!!

I did cleanup, washing dishes and coffee cups at our UU coffee klatch today.
