Per­tain­ing directly to my per­sonal tran­si­tion and identity.

Oh, Kennesaw

I got one of the big­ger sur­prises that I’ve got­ten in a long time just a lit­tle while ago. Dur­ing my morn­ing read­ing, I got an e-mail from Ken­ne­saw State Uni­ver­sity at my former-name e-mail address I set up a few years ago. It was a request for me, as a for­mer KSU [...]

For My Own Recollection

I have an appoint­ment with the doc­tor on 2 Decem­ber at 10:00 in the morn­ing.  The office visit is $65.  I need to bring the results of more lab work in when I go. I called in this morn­ing to have my pre­scrip­tion refilled.  I got a call back from a nurse named Sarah telling me that [...]

HRT Recount

Okay, I don’t know what’s going on. I was count­ing what few pills I have left for HRT so I know when to go back to the phar­macy. Once again, for the sec­ond month in a row, I’ve ended up with way less spirono­lac­tone left­over than estra­diol. So the ques­tion is, why? Pos­si­ble conclusions: I’m [...]

Mysteries

When I woke up on Wednes­day, I dis­cov­ered Hor­ri­fy­ing and Embar­rass­ing Med­ical Prob­lem. I shall call this HEMP here­after. Some of you know what HEMP is. If you don’t, you can ask, but I’m not pub­lish­ing it here. By yes­ter­day, the prob­lem did seem to go away, as far as I know, but for [...]

Name

I’m not using my legal name at work anymore. This short-lived legal name use is mostly due to hav­ing a few peo­ple know my name as I was com­ing in, but it’s seri­ously silly to keep it up and spread it, espe­cially if I’m going to cringe every time I hear it. I started intro­duc­ing myself [...]

Suntrust on Prince

So there’s this inter­est­ing lit­tle Sun­trust bank branch on Prince Avenue close to where I live now. I’d seen this place before from the road, but I didn’t real­ize that it was a nor­mal branch because it’s a very large plantation-style home set way back from the road inside a large, well land­scaped yard full [...]

Epic E-mail

When I was in the shower this morn­ing, it occurred to me to think that, while I was inter­ested in open­ing a dia­logue with my mom about trans­sex­u­al­ity, how much com­mu­ni­cat­ing had I ever done with her about it? Specif­i­cally, I actu­ally started this by won­der­ing if she had ever heard about the moment I [...]

Tranniversary!

It just so hap­pens, by coin­ci­dence, that next Sat­ur­day is both the day of my tran­niver­sary (one full year on HRT) and the day that Luke and I have set for look­ing at the house we’re pos­si­bly leas­ing later this month. I’m so happy he’s going to be around for the tran­niver­sary, and some­thing great [...]

Job Beginning and Lab Work

Last night, after the [redacted], Shawna helped me go by and get the lab results of my blood work out of Ethan's mailbox, which had arrived. I was pretty thrilled to see the actual results. Everything was as normal, with respect to normal female reference ranges for the results, as they could be; I could have done no better if I'd hand-picked my numbers.
