Seeing a fellow member's progress made me happy for her and somehow sad and jealous for me in a weird way.

"scratches his awfully itchy head"

Going to see The Damned and Eddie & the Hot Rods at Rebellion Punk Festival

Today I went to a shop to pick up some shorts I had ordered online. I ask for my order and they ask me for me ID card. I say my typical "sorry, the photo is kinda old, I'm waiting for the new one". "Don't worry, dearie". But when I go to the cashier, and she ask for my ID again..

"... Sorry, are you picking this for somebody else? I'd need that person to sign..."

"Sorry, that's me. It will be a few months before they give me a new one"

Then she realizes that I am transgender, she is red and saying "sorry sorry sorry" all the time. "Son't worry, it happens all the time". After that she got curious, asking about the processes for the identity, if they will give it to me soon... And wishing me good luck in the end.

I almost want to cry of joy.

I posted this on my Facebook for my Dad



His reply below the poem made me smile. ^_^

Babysitting.

My Credit Card came in the mail today (I did not expect it for 8 more days) - & I managed to order a new TV - this one will be my first LED TV, brighter than any I have ever had, + 3 year warranty. AND they are shipping it out today! 

I have a date next month for my pre-op consultation - which means there's an outside chance of me having my gender affirmation surgery before the new year! (though that'll make for a weird Yuletide, it'll do as a present ).

People here have made me happy >.<

I went water skiing for the first time in years.  No bad falls,just a bunch of fun.  I am so sore.  A good sore.

Be sure and stretch when you wake up tomorrow or you will be real sore. Sounds like fun!

Had a great time at the Rebellion punk festival,met some old mates made some new ones,saw some great bands and paintings,got chatted up by a hot guy.No attitude by people there I met 2 other TS there and saw a third and was treated with respect by everyone.2 lesbians wal.king hand in hand were left alone to just be who they are

I got to shoot today for the first time in over 7 months, popped off 170 rounds of 9mm & 380 and I got to shoot the new taurus judge but the 7 inch (hand cannon) version. Chambered in 454 cassul, might I add goddamn. Sand was jumping off the ground as I was firing it, so loud! I was shaking after, adrenaline I guess

Convinced my mum to let me come out to my brother. Main argument: He's not blind or stupid and he probably already noticed. She didn't really believe me but understood where I was coming from. He reacted great, I'm not allowed to grow taller than him though :p (Not gonna happen :p). That evening my mum went nosing and he told her: I'm not stupid I knew what was going on. Is it bad I felt really happy about that?

Hee hee, awesome .

Listening to this song:

Some people's hot
Some people's cold
Some people's not very
Swift to behold
Some people do it
Some see right through it
Some wear pyjamas
If only they knew it

The pyjama people are boring me to pieces
Feel like I am wasting my time
They all got flannel up 'n down 'em
A little trap-door back aroun' 'em
An' some cozy little footies on their mind

Po-jama people!
Po-jama people, people!
They sure do make you sleepy
With the things they might say
Po-jama people!
Po-jama people, people!
Mother Mary 'n Jozuf, I wish they'd all go away!

Po-jama people!
It's a po-jama people special . . .
Take one home with you, save a dollar today
Po-jama people!
Po-jama people, people!
Wrap 'em up
Roll 'em out
Get 'em out of my way
Hein nya-nya-hein nya-nya-hein nya-nya-hein
HOEY! HOEY! HOEY!
Wrap 'em up
Roll 'em out
Get 'em out of my way
Hein nya-nya-hein nya-nya-hein nya-nya-hein
HOEY! HOEY! HOEY!
Wrap 'em up
Roll 'em out
Get 'em out of my way
Hein nya-nya-hein nya-nya-hein nya-nya-hein
HOEY! HOEY! HOEY!

(Well . . . ) now some people's hot

(Very) swift to behold (swifty!)
(I told you) some people do it (do it!)
(Yes, they do!) (No . . . )
Some see right through it

An' some wear PO-JAMAS
If only they knew it

The pyjama people are boring me to pieces
They make me feel like I am wasting my time
They all got flannel up 'n down 'em
A little trap-door back aroun' 'em
An' some cozy little footies on their mind

Po-jama people!
Po-jama people, people!
Lawd, they make you sleepy
With the things they might say (hey, yeah-hey . . . )
Po-jama people!
(Well . . . now) Po-jama people, people!
(I said) ARF! ARF! ARF!
I wish they'd all go away!

I made the decision to move from where I live right now in September. It will be the first time I have not lived with roommates since I was 19.  I am excited, and I am going to visit apartment complexes today to start feeling out availability and price ranges.

I put an offer down on a house.

Take good care of that Liam.  I had something similar on my elbow which gave me a staph infection that hasn't cleared up in 30 years.  Use plenty of a good topical antibiotic, like Neosporin or whatever equivalent you may have in your part of the world

Persistent staff infections suck.  You really have to get them properly drained.
