HRT does more than help your body reflect your self. It helps your mind, too! I love my wife and have always known she makes me happy, but now I can *feel* all of that happiness in the moment.

I actually feel alive now

And I love her so much 💖🫠🥰😢
We're just going to go ahead and add "Your insurance provider might drop your potential surgeon from their network starting January 1" to the giant pile of shit that is today

Sincerely hoping I don't need to go to a hospital tonight. I hate today

I started at 37 and I think I'm doing okay and the truth is that even if I wasn't doing okay the mental asnd emotional changes enough would have saved my life

I have friends who transitioned in their 50s, just met a gal who came out at her 65th birthday.

It's never too late, love

We should do a trans takeover of the ice skating rink in Philly

My spouse is an Eagles 🦅 fan. Buffalo chicken dip (and Fishtown Pickle Project) for dinner because it's game night

I have had reason to bring up the cookies 3 times in the past week.

Are my standards too low?

I was Willow for a hot minute. I have my reasons. I wore willow tree earrings to my name change hearing.

It was me, and for other reasons, it wasn't.
To those who changed their name, what was your runner up choice?

I almost went with Zia with the middle name I have now. I tested it out and it didn’t feel quite like me.

In all that commotion I missed today's shot #30. And the start of vial #3.

And the bandaid was a trio of princesses. 👑

Called about a bill that's outstanding because the provider billed it under my deadname. Was told "Coverage Terminated". Then hung up on while waiting on hold for a reason. Today is a pile of absurd.

Let's add "cancelled your medical eval for surgery, next available date is 3 months out" to the list of garbage coming from the US healthcare system today.

I have no cold resistance to speak of. Why are all the warm places fascist pits of despair? I just want a nice city in the sun to move to that accepts the fact that I exist.

That was a thoroughly unpleasant doctor visit. From the building security to the front office to the doc himself, constantly misgendered and very poorly treated with assumptions all around. 👎

Death, drugs, and dysphoria.

Dreams to start your week with, I guess?

I’m not trying to be mean to the creators of those videos btw. I just want to learn some common phrases I can learn to speak in Woman, like “where is the restroom?” and “I’m hungry, where is the chicken parmesan?”

I should be asleep.

Instead I am thinking about how my life feels like the Voyager episode "Non Sequitur".

I had everything that normal people consider "a successful life". But it's the wrong one

Sitting down to play video games started feeling dysphoric all of a sudden. I spent about two hours tonight playing a game that I only have because of my spouse's account in steam family, but it feels wrong now.

Or I'm just due for a shot tomorrow morning?

The interplay of both long-ish hair and nails being new to me is that I sometimes to terrible things. Like accidentally tear a hole in my ear trying to scratch the itch caused by my own hair. Maybe I should start wearing headbands until it's long enough to tie back.

Sharing hot noods with my spouse tonight

(Pad Thai for dinner)

This has quickly turned into a "blankets and hot cocoa ☕ on the couch" day. Too bad I don't have a couch in my office, yet.

A certain no-contact relative insists on sending me checks for holidays. I have not cashed any in decades, but I almost want to just to put it toward transition costs.

This would validate their ideas that I still live at that address, though.

And there's the matter of can they see my legal name?

Katy is soaking up the sun 🌞 and guarding my spouse while she knits 🧶

Just kidding! Her food bowl🥣 is nearby and it's feeding time 🤣

Tom is a hunter in the same way that I am a factory designer when I play Satisfactory: Artificially and lazily.

There has been a core group of 6 of us that have been getting together for meals, bars, game nights, even travelling together for vacations for the past 10 years or so. Tonight was the first time we've ever gotten together and numbered 5. We went to a very swanky place and booked a table for 5.
