Summer is Over, Now We Settle In

August 23, 2021

Well summer is officially over. Well okay maybe not so much when the temps are still like 108 F. But for me it still is the season of summer is over as we have returned to the classroom.

However it is way more that makes me thrilled at returning to work this year.…

My Trans Reality Isn’t Free of Growth

July 27, 2021

When I tell people that at times I have a super difficult time with my dysphoria and being out in public they often scoff at me. They tell me that I pass perfectly well and that there is absolutely no reasons whatsoever that I should not feel totally and fully comfortable at all times in all settings with anybody. Wow, that is a tall order. To pass at all times in all settings anywhere? How about naked? Okay, well then…

THE Surgery

January 3, 2021

In January, almost a year ago, I met with Dr. Satterwhite in SF. Don’t know who he is? Well he is going to perform my gender surgery. Gender surgery? Yes. It has gone by a variety of acronyms, none of which are without issue. Suffice it to say this is THE surgery. Yup, that one. THE one, lol. Still confused, well then maybe that’s for the best and we will leave it at that. The date that I chose for…

Um, Thanks?

November 22, 2020

The other day I received the following email: Followed you for a very long time and proud of your accomplishments, but thinking of taking you off the list of places I go often. I know you’re busy-you lead a full life for sure-and it shows. Rare new bits and pieces, and not updated to often like it once was. So,time to move on. Thanks for the ride. My response at first was that I cried. After a bit I got…

It Has Begun

June 6th will be 1 year out from the orchi, June 28th 2 years since I legally became female and changed my name, July 3rd 3 years since I chose to take the leap and change my hormones.…
