Thanks.  They're so warm I get overheated working on them on my lap.  Sweaters take so long winter would probably be over by the time I made you one, but I could make you a hat or a scarf or something if you're serious.

I just found out that I passed my first exam with a 96%, which takes my grade down to a 97.9%.  Shucks   Not bad considering I didn't sleep for any ten consecutive minutes the night before that test.  My dog did it by snoring and kicking me, and mostly through aggressive snuggling, so close I can't breathe, and wrapped around my arm and shoulder so that my shoulder hurt.  Obviously I should have made her move, but I can never bring myself to.  She's old and when she's dead I'm going to miss her for the rest of my life, so if she wants to snuggle, I'm going to let her.

I spent most of the day in a neutral-nothing feeling fog most of the day.  Followed some advice from my friend Lilith, "Just focus on what makes you happy."  So I stared at my avatar pic, and started smiling. The I said outloud "@#%^ you Neutral! I still smile when I look at my picture! You're not going to keep me down!"  And I am not going to let self-doubt keep dragging me sideways anymore! Also made a vow to my self to commission a clothier I know to make me a dress like in my avatar pic when I've get far enough into HRT to need to wear a bra, as celebration of a milestone (sort of arbitrary, but still a mile ) .

My friend took me to a goth fetish club, which was actually my first clubbing experience. It was amazing. So. Much. Fun.

A dear friend that really cares about an idiot like me. I hope they know how much they have helped me.

I can walk outside at night again without being absolutely scared of every little thing, just the normal you know it's dark so be careful .
Mmm me with my confidence again, look out world here I come

I found the last book in Ken Follett's Century trilogy on my kitchen table and I had no idea it was out.  Probably it's my granddad's copy, and maybe since it's here he's read it already and I can have it next...

First T shot has been done, and I'm on my way.

Congratulations!

My followup appointment at Callen-Lorde is this Wednesday. My friend is accompanying me.

My two new maidenform bras from macys showed up:) they had a great sale. Too bad $9.99 get  7 day shipping........snail mail

Just got done getting a tattoo I'd been planning on I had originally planed to get it done since I like to take rambling motorcycle trips, but now I'm on an even bigger journey, I woke up today and said "Now is the right time!"



Vegvísir

I'll post a pic a bit later of it when I take the bandage cover off (they recommended I leave it covered for an hour/hour and a half to keep dust+stuff off it while it's still fresh)

Awesome, ElDudette!

At the anime convention a few months ago, I (dressed as Loki) hugged a shy girl who I later added to facebook. Today, she described her disappointment in a (now former) friend who was disrespectful to trans people. While it would normally bother me that people like her former friend are around, what she said in support of us really made my day.

Awesome. I always cheer when one of my friends drops ties with bigots and 'phobic #$@holes.

^that spot looks like it might have hurt a little. What s
Does it stand for or mean?

"The symbol is attested in the Huld Manuscript, collected in Iceland by Geir Vigfusson in 1860 (but consisting of material of earlier origin).[1]

A leaf of the manuscript[2] provides an image of the vegvísir, gives its name, and, in prose, declares that "if this sign is carried, one will never lose one's way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known".[3]"

It literally translates to "if found please return to Ingvi."

LOL, don't worry i can confirm that what is says is:

Beri maður stafi þessa á sér villist maður ekki í hríðum né vondu veðri þó ókunnugur sé

Which translated would mean:

He who bears these letters on his person will not get lost in snowstorms or bad weather even if one does not know the land.
