Trying out some new boots. However, these boots are NOT made for walking. They fit — barely — but with 3 inch heels, they will need some practice lest I destroy my feet again.

Another antidote to TERFs: hanging out at the donut shop with the mother-daughter pair who run the place and tell me they love having me visit. Yes, they know my history. But trans women are women.

Sort of funny that I was wearing this approximate outfit (different blouse) when the TERF laid into me with their claims.

I happened to pay attention to the restaurant’s music this morning. Elton John’s “Island Girl” came up, and I noticed that I have one thing in common with the title character: see the alt text. ☺️

Breakfast at the Wigwam again, where I told my server how much I appreciate her, especially after attracting the attention of a bunch of TERFs yesterday claiming that I think bring a woman just means wearing a dress that goes spinny. What horrible self-hating people they are.

Not sure about the “hot” part, but here I am in the dress I wore to attend the 2025 World Fantasy Awards banquet in Brighton 🏴 a few weeks ago.

What I’m thankful for this Thanksgiving: Finally being able to be the person I always knew I wanted to be.

You’ll not be surprised to see how happy I am.

For the third day in a row, I find myself hanging around the donut shop. They seem to enjoy my company. This is a consequence of having assumed five days of recovery from surgery and thus having cleared my calendar but only needing two days.

Such a luxury to be able to take things easy at the local donut shop!

Although I took the booked day of medical leave today so I could sleep in, I was feeling well enough to walk the three blocks to my local restaurant and have breakfast. There’s only so long I could lounge around in my sleep wear.

I’m only on pills. The actual amount of growth is small so far, but I can feel it! No forms in this bra, just me.

It's sort-of boy-mode today because of the surgical instructions for the orchi. Looking forward to getting this over with!

I started at 3 mos in, when my endocrinologist was happy with my initial reaction to E and spiro. I’m a bit past 6 mo now. Most recent labs have my E levels where a woman my age should be.

It’s wet and gloomy outside, but every day as myself is a great one! Breakfast this morning at the Black Bear Diner.

Not sure if I qualify as a “hottie,” but here I am in the dress I wore today to go out to breakfast, attend an online meeting of a non profit corporation whose corporate secretary I am, and to do some shopping. Sort of boring, really, but I’m happy.

I’m so predictable. My server recognized me and said, “Your usual?”

Medical appointments today. EKG and blood draw done. Endocrinologist next, but 20 miles from here. Also did some grocery shopping.

A hazard of having four pairs of otherwise identical earrings and putting them on in the morning while still groggy. By the time I realized it, it was too much bother to reopen my carefully packed luggage.
