So I finally came out today to a friend I know in real life! We were talking about how it's Transgender Awareness Week, but I just couldn't say anything - but right before we went our separate ways, I turned around and said, "By the way - this week? It applies to me!" Then I basically ran home, since it was pouring. A few minutes later, I sent her a message from my female Facebook account, asking her not to tell anyone. In her reply a minute later, she immediately said that she accepted me. I'm just so happy, there aren't words to describe it. Not even the outright downpour can sour my mood!
