Well now, it has been a little bit since I came clean here about what is going on with me and my prostate, but there appears to be a lingering confusion as to what is happening with my prostate. Several people I have spoken to have been greatly concerned that I am dealing more with obtaining hormones than dealing with my health. Some of these people have been close friends and some have been well meaning internet friends. I have…
Goodness me, how time flies! I know, I frequently lament my super busy life. Woe is me, right? Ah well. I think that it is because I feel bad for not updating my blog more frequently. I know that there are at least a few people out there who enjoy my blog and gain something from reading it. So for you, constant reader, I am sorry that I am so lax in updating things. Lets see if I can at…
Right now, I am not supposed to be writing a blog post, I am supposed to be working on my therapy! But I seem to be side stepping it, oh my! My therapist has sent me home with a transgender questionnaire/survey. She told me that many people prefer to have some time to ponder over the questions instead of just having them thrown at them point blank in a session. I really appreciate the opportunity to think about things, but…
An Update on Counseling
June 5, 2017Well well well. It was what a couple of weeks ago when I explained why I was seeking out counseling for my gender variance? I think, hmm…. let’s check. Yup here it is. It took a bit of time but I got setup with someone who I thought was good. But things took a turn that I did not want it to. She wanted to work on CBT (look it up) for some inner critical voices. I let her know…

Transgender people often rely on catalogs and online purchases. Thus, you need to know your size before you order anything. You have to put it into the darn forms before they will send you anything. Plus, there’s added pressure for TG individuals as buying anything brings with it a certain…
Nice Hat
March 31, 2017Hat – Slouchy Beanie The second compliment that I received today was “nice hat.” This was said to me by the gentleman that was standing behind me in line as I waited to make my next appointment with the dermatologist. As soon as I finished up, I turned around, smiled at the man behind me, and he complimented my hat. I really like this hat as well and have received more than one compliment on it. About a half…
The Adjacent Possible
January 27, 2017I have been gathering some ideas to do a write up on how to shop successfully at outlet malls while being transgender. Though the snarky part of me keeps saying, that’ll be a short article; to shop successfully you need to just do it! There ya go! Short, simple, sweet, and to the point! But then, I do understand that I do have a bit of flair in shopping well. There might just be some tips I could offer to…
