And the hits keep coming! Went for an interview at a certain popular amusement park in Orlando, Florida and got the job! Yay! Then to cap off the day, went to the department of motor vehicles, spent two hours waiting, but walked out with my new drivers license! Seeing my picture and my new name juxtaposed on a state identification card is very reaffirming and satisfying.
So to recap my week: Was taken for a g-girl by the electrologist on Monday despite 4 days growth of beard and no makeup, celebrated 6 months on HRT Wednesday, name change on Thursday and new job and drivers license on Friday! Also found out a girl I met at a party last weekend has a "huge crush" (my friend's words) on me. WOW! ;D This was really a banner week. It seemed like all the struggles of the past 8 months paid off at one time in unbelievable fashion and I am so grateful. I have a grin on my face that won't come off! I wanna lay down and sleep for 3 days. I am emotionally and physically exhausted!
congrats I am so happy for you.
Congrats! Here's to continued success!
Awesome Melody!
You deserve all the love and happiness coming your way, may it forever continue :)
Hope the good news keeps coming! Congrats on the new name by the way, I look forward to that day myself.
Melody,
I have followed your story and and am so happy for you! You must be on cloud nine.
Thanks for sharing your story with us, and for your smile. I just love it, you cutie!
Awesome Mel. You have come through a lot is a short time. The way you are going your name will be on my list before the last name is add, my own.
Thanks everyone. I am just starting to realize how exhausted I am. I feel like I have been running at a sprint for 8 months and I have reached some sort of stopping point for now. I need time to reflect and digest. Not much left to do except live my life and have SRS one day.
Janet, should I even get there before you, I don't want to be added to your list. It would break my heart.
Fantastic news again Melody, No doubt you will be the Princess in the daily parade
Hugs
Cindy
And we all do the Happy Dance! Hooray for Melody!

I can certainly imagine how absolutely exhausted and THRILLED you must be, Melody. I still remember the first avatar picture I saw of you here, and I always took you for a GG. Congratulations on all your achievements, and may you continue to have many, many more. (Especially in the relationship area!)
awesome news mel
Geee, I'll move with you, maybe it is contagious LOL, Congrats , U go GRL
Love,
Kate
Congratulations, Melody! That's awesome! I feel bad I didn't respond earlier, but I was tied up at the ex's house re-doing the bathroom floor and moving most of my stuff out. Went there after work yesterday, and didn't get home until about 45 min ago. Happily, the heavy lifting is pretty much done there...
Awesome, Melody,.... just awesome!
Sooo...... will you be able to get me in to see "the mouse?"
No pressure..... Maybe a few little blue pills in it for ya..... ;)
So nice to hear!
I'm very happy ;D yet somewhat envious ;) . You have come such a long way in such a short time.
Its been very encouraging following your progress, especially since we have some things in common.
A couple more waves (maybe just one) then its smooth sailing. :D

@Jessica: Yes, I could, but the mouse does place a limit on how many times I can do that in a year. My son will have first dibs of course! My fellow castmembers warned me that I would become very popular!
@Shelly: I took that very first difficult step into the unknown. You can do the same, but I understand why you haven't yet. Once you do, it will all fall into place very quickly for you.
congrats Melody!
Wooho Melody!!!!! Congratulations. We'll be there in July with our granddaughter. I'll look for you. I'll be dressed as a guy(my heart and soul are still a girl) but I'll say hi.
Hugs
Beth
Good for you.
Though I'm curious. Do you have a car?
Congrats Melody
Count your blessings for this week, I hope next week will be the same or better, you desrve it.
hugs
Annette
Thanks again everyone.
Crash, yes, I have a car. I myself am curious why that question would pop into your head though.
Congratulations Mel!
You must be over the moon....

Got my new Social Security Card in the mail today. From Thursday to Tuesday. Wow that was fast!
