The last two days have been great. Tuesday was the first laser hair removal appointment which went extremely well, no pain and lasted about 25 mins.

Wednesday was my 3 month HRT appointment and got all the blood test back. Dr was surprised, T levels dropped from 21 to 7 on a moderate dose of Spiro. He said this is very rare and has only seen this a couple times.. Of coarse I have zero complaints. My dosage has now been doubled and I feel fantastic. Im on the right path in my life now and its full speed ahead. Anyone else feel this giddy? I have been reborn and its awesome. Party time.

Hanging out with an old friend last night, she ran into some old friends and introduced my. The left to go to another drinking establishment. One of them had dropped his wallet and I volunteered to take it to him. Upon giving it to him, he called me a goddess!

What a nice compliment! That would have given me the warm fuzzies.

Today I am in Vegas for a shopping spree with my friend Dee. So far, very successful. I probably could have done this at home but without any help. I want to give kudos to Ulta in Henderson. They have two androginess guys who were so helpful and did not make me feel I was not welcome there. Overall a great week

Went for a drink and some grub with a friend and didn't get in a fight or anything :)
So pleased that I can go to "normal" places without having to worry now

This may not sound like much, but my wife invited me to join her friends for dinner on Friday.  Maybe there is hope.

Also had my first voice lesson today.  (First one is free.) I might actually be able to get this right.... Eventually.  BTW-what do people pay usually for an hour of voice lessons.  I'm about to pay $80/hour.

Had my first appt. with my endocrinologist today. He immediately doubled my dosages from what my GP was willing to prescribe me. "Well, that won't do much", was his first observation. I think I'm going to like this guy!

Actually mixed gender group and possibly other spouses.  But thanks, I agree.

Today I had a follow up appointment after being on hormones for four months and it went great! My doctor is happy with my progress and we decided to keep the dosages the same for the time being. She took measurements for the first time since I have started. I have gained an inch in my hips and there has been a definite increase in my breasts!

​This is evening I had to go to the mall to get my phone fixed. I was amazed by the number of people I passed that either smiled at me or smiled and said hello. I must be carrying myself differently. My wife says I really look like myself.

I now have appointments for consults to set up FFS and GCS.

This made me very happy today.
Earth my body, water my blood, air my breath and fire my spirit.

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.

I finally got rid of those pesky testosterone making machines that kept getting in the way.  I am so excited as well in a slight amount of pain, but ready to lower or eliminate my spiro when possible.

I'm happy for you! Can't wait for my turn. Unfortunately, my PCP says he's keeping me on spiro even after an orchie. He likes how it controls my blood pressure.
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.

So did the charity thing today as Davina and to me was a success but the best thing was it let me be myself. I needed that and it makes me want to come out fully with confidence

Dinner tonight was with 11 other people.  Everyone treated me as I was just one of the gang.  Only a few pronoun mix-ups, not unexpected.  The thing that was unexpected was my inner social anxiety - GONE.  This is the one group that I always feel that I was acting.  Not tonight.  It was fun and we went out to drinks later and had a good time.
Time for bed since I have a laser treatment about 90 miles away on the other side of Chicago tomorrow morning.

Got my very first tattoo yesterday afternoon <3 It's one I've wanted for a very VERY long time, and now it's mine. Designed it myself, and my brother drew it up on his computer. Like most things, I slept through most of it. (Aside from making silly faces at my girlfriend across the parlor XP) There was very little in the way of pain, just a HOT sensation and vibration on the tattoo site from the gun. The artist was super nice too, we got to chit chatting about REPO! the Genetic Opera, and music/concerts.
