What, who and where will you be on Xmas Day 2010?
I'll definitely be post-op unless some unsuspected medcial problem crops up to stop the process in which case I'll be dead.  I've got the papers so surgery should take place before my birthday in May.  I'll still be LGBT rep at work and be attending various LGBT events - might even do a Pride or two.
Who will I be?  Me, full, complete and 'finished' the path I started on 26 October 2004 when I finally managed to get to the doctor's and say the dread words 'I want to know about sex change.'
Where will I be?  Hard to know. I hope to be away from this apartment block with its unaccepting smallmindeds.  I dream of a nice guy in Los Angeles but dreams don't come true do they?

Yes they do come true! They better!

I hope I can say the same (post-op) in a year.

I don't know, I'll be reading an email from myself I think, courtesy of http://www.futureme.org/

To be honest, probably exactly like today, home in Cornwall with my partner and adopted son, eating too much turkey and pudding and getting invaded by all our distant relatives who seem to think that our place is a great xmas hotel! It is nice to be popular, but it can also get kind of tiring.

However - where I would LIKE to be, is out in L.A, lounging in a pool, having sold the rights to one of my filmscripts to some obscenely wealthy Hollywood producers...

having sold the rights to one of my filmscripts to some obscenely wealthy Hollywood producers

Obscenely wealthy Hollywood producers try to underpay for scripts and rewrites, that's one of the ways they get to be obscenely wealthy.

Darn it! I knew there had to be a flaw in my plan somwhere

I have friends who play that game, hell, everyone in LA plays that game, its like the home version of the Lotto.  Some reporter just spend a few days walking around places like Century City, Marina Del Ray, and the like walking up to random persons and asking "So, how are you coming working on your treatment?"  And over 80% replied in some sort of affirmative manner that yes, they had, or were working on a treatment.

Heck I even have a couple of awesome treatments, so if you know someone who is interested in reading them ... 

I am hoping to have and be recovered from my orchi at this time next year. Other than that nothing will be different from where things are now.

I "want" to have done my top surgery around this time next year, but that's just a dream More realisticly, I want to have gotten about 1/3 of the money needed together, so that it's become a visible goal.. not a "some day"/"one day" type thing.

Christmas Day 2010?

Probably right here, as I am.  Alone, post-Orchie, but alive.

What would I like to be?

1st year Psychology Major in Consulting.
Post-op at last.
Nice House in the country.
Married.
Someone to call me 'Mom'.



Ok time to wakeup from a dream that is only that.

Miracles can happen you know. My life is a living proof. So I'll wind up my wand and see what I can sort out... 

My guess would be the first is entirely likely - the second may even be possible... but beyond that it may get a bit tricky to cram into just one year! But hey - as my mum said - if you aim at nothing in life you'll probably hit it - so keep wishing and aiming high sister!

Christmas 2010.

What will I be?  Happier, I hope.

Who will I be?  The same person just a tad older.

Where will I be?  Probably here at home with my fiance.

Where would I like to be?  Gambling in a casino!  I want to take a holiday to Las Vegas!

Christmas Day 2010"? If I don't get run by a truck before that, I'll still be studying here in the US.

What will I be?  Amongst student loans & the money I owe to my parents, I'll be in debt.

Hopefully I'll have found a part-time job by then, preferably on-campus.

Post-op, just recovering from FFS.... hopefully doing a lot more art and a lot less work.

By then I hope to be working as a case manager for the Oregon Health Plan or some nationalized version of it if we actually get a public option. I'll still be me, Mercy Rebecca Somethingorother, because I'm unclear on which last name I'll use in the long run. I'd like to be doing this work in Salem, but I'll take Portland if that's all they offer. When I first moved to this state I hated it SO much, but it's really grown on me so I think I'll stick around.

Check you toes, Becca.  They are becoming webbed as all Oregonians do. 


Quack, quack,
Janet

My intent is for Emery and me to still be waking up on the right side of the grass. And it would be nice to hear from more than three of our eight children and one of our 15 grandchildren.

(Kids. Who needs kids?)

One year hence uh? Well, in matters GID (and it seems that is all that matters right now) through enough therapy sessions to get a GID doctor referral. In to that doctor and out with hormone perscriptions. Accomplish the many items  large and small to enable full time living, including the dreaded "coming out" letter. Be close to if not having completed Orchie. Make sure our marriage survives.

Matters not completely GID related: Get our house in order to sell and do so. Finish the sort and discard/prepare for storage process for the many, unending tons of junk we've accumulated in two lifetimes, in an attempt to hold down the amount of stuff we have to move to that which fill only three or four semis! 

Oh dear, I've just made a "To Do" list haven't I? Curse you, Lilacwoman!
