So I used to be quite active around here, but life has a way of distracting you and throwing blinding curve-balls and stuff, and before you know it you're stuck in a hole and you've kinda let things just slip by the wayside.

So I'm a MtF from South Africa, though I used to live in London till a few months ago. I'm kinda mid-transition/limbo, having started to transition in the UK but kinda getting bogged down now that I'm back home. Between not being able to find experienced therapists or endocrinologists in the area I live, and facing some rather ... robust ... discrimination in finding work, I've kinda let things slide a bit the last while. Here's hoping this new burst of enthusiasm and renewed determination will change things. (Everybody cross your fingers now! ;) )

And to folks I've kinda lost touch with and track of - I undertake to endeavour to correct this most grievous oversight. ;) :P

Welcome back, Simone:

Hmm, work, discrimination. I can relate to that.
I hope that you find something and get back on track.

Cheers

I hope so. I for one feel very slighted and pissed. How dare you let life get in the way of talking to me>:(

Just joshing.  :laugh: Have missed my lovely Lady A, though.  :) :angel:

Lady A is back, too bad you missed some of the political and economic stuff going down the last few months around here, but have no fear, it will continue.

Ooooh, I'm sure it must've been quite pyrotechnical around here. Palin & Bide, Bloody October, AIG and all the rest. I'm damn sorry I missed it. :D

I have to go stock up the bar for election night.  Either way it goes, I'm going to want to drink a lot.
