I believe that's just around the corner.  Sounds wonderful!  Glad your having fun with your son!

I'm back from San Diego where I had a wonderful time. As folks who have seen my Facebook page have noted, I dined well. In fact, I gained 7 pounds. Mostly water, I'm ever so sure. 

I'm back home, cooking, preparing for events and a guest I expect in the next few days, writing, and preparing my tax returns. Last year was... complicated...  with a gender change, name change, and divorce.

Still, life goes on.

I had a medical appointment today, a GCS followup.  No real problems, things have healed with good symmetry, and I can pee straight. (Seriously. A real issue that comes up.)

My roommate is new to the area so I brought her along for her first BART ride, first MUNI ride, first Union Square shopping expedition, first cable car ride and first REAL Italian dinner.

Wheee!  She's falling asleep on the train home.

Real life goes on...

I'm glad you had a great time down south, and what fun in the City!

Michelle, do I need to get makeup sooner than later?

Well, could be, could be.

I knew I had this around somewhere.  Here's the makeup drill I used earlier in transition before HRT and 190 hours of electrolysis changed things a bit.

The honey badgers are restless. That's usually a sign.

Fortunately I now have an apprentice in the Dark Arts to assist in properly tending to any guests I may capture.

Thank you Michelle, a darker shade is what you thought I may need.  I will go shopping now.

It appears that the whole wheat Tollhouse cookie variation is an excellent bait.  I've caught an interloper in one of the traps I placed in the garage.

Robyn and I are now interrogating and truth be told, toying with our new guest in The Facility,  We have been evaluating varying positions for their efficacy in controlling our guest,  SO far it appears that potion Number Nine is the most effective,

Additional research is needed, particularly on the effect on sleep patterns.  Our studies continue.

My guest has escaped.  The minions will be relocated to the Pit of Despair.  Most annoying...

Meanwhile, back on Earth, today is the 10th anniversary of my retirement.  It is also the second anniversary of the week of my coming apart at the seams, first hotline call, getting my first therapist appointment, and coming out (badly).

Yuck.

I'm doing much better now, fortunately.

"I haven't come out to anyone yet, and will try to get some good guidance before I do anything that might blow up my life."

If there were any explosions they were just part of the construction of the road your on.  Obstacles creating uphill challenges then steep downhills need to be smoothed out for a trip that is already bumpy enough.

You are an inspiration and your life is definitely wonderful!

Hugs, Jess

A Kaiser NorCal Surgery scheduler just called.  Facial feminization surgery (FFS) with Dr Klineberger, who I consider to be their top FFS surgeon, is on for August 28, 2018. This year!

I almost fainted. Oh, finally all this testosterone damage will be reversed!
