I like Keaira's avatar. Shiny!

I got The Eight Days of Luke. Yes, it's a kids' book. No, I don't care. Loki is in it! I loved that book as a kid.

It was actually yesterday, but I had a great Thanksgiving with my ex-wife and our kids.

After today's workout i have to say i seem to be a much better guitarist that i previously thought. Not a great one, but definitely not the worst.

Alone time!  :-)

(It's not Thanksgiving here, and I'm enjoying having the house to myself because alone time is a rare event.)

Yesterday I went to my parents house as ME to help my mom make thanksgiving dinner. For the first time they got to see me and they handled it very well which did surprise me. What was best of all for me was that I wasn't nervous, had no anxiety, wasn't scared, I was happy and proud to show them who I really am. After we got the turkey in the oven me and mom worked on makeup for a while and by the time we were done she couldn't believe how much different I looked compared to the last time we did some makeup while I was in male mode. She actually said that I could pass just fine for a woman when she saw me in the full ensemble compared to what her big fear from the week earlier when she could only see me as a guy that could never pass as a woman. I have to say this was one of the best days ever for me as I think my parents can finally see what I was talking about how different but the same when I am being me. I got to spend the rest of the morning as me but then I had to revert back to male mode and it actually made me feel really bad but I didn't want to come out to the rest of my family in that way. Still I can't believe how far I've gone in the past two months as I never in my wildest dreams thought that this would happen, I'd end up getting closer to my parents, be able to talk about myself to them, and spend time finally getting to do mother & daughter things with my mom.

We all need that at times and it's usually a rare and precious event to have some peace and quiet.

Auntie Shan, you're always so supportive of everyone. Thank you.

1/3? Care to tell us what that means in laymen-women's terms? 

I am now 3:03 certified, so basically I can be an attorney for the super poor people in the clinic I work at. I can fill out their forms to an extent, represent them in court, etc. Like Elle in Legally Blonde.

I'll be 2/3 when I graduate law school in May, and 3/3s if I pass the bar. (the thirds thing is not official terms or anything)

Oh gotcha, thanks for clarifying, it makes sense! Aunti Shan is so proud of you Henry!    OMG Here I am talking in third person like I do to my granddaughter.
