Basking in the Sweater Weather

Nine Months I celebrated my nine months’ Transiversary on the day the Presidential race was declared. People lined the streets dancing in joy all along Sunset Blvd., and all over Downtown Los Angeles. Had a quiet, distanced dinner with one of the friends that has supported me through my transition and carefully observed the festivities […]

Five Months

Right before my fifth transiversary, a new ‘girl’ came in the mail, this one a Paul Stanley style electric with glitter finish. The ultimate Glam guitar… The Dr. has doubled my Estradiol amounts, and I’m making faster, more visible progress, ‘though one side is developing faster that the other.

Eight Months

My 8-month Tranisversary was the first time I attended Mass since the lockdown 7 months ago. I’m making steady progress. I began ‘blockers’ a month ago and my breasts are ‘evening out’ in size.

Feliz Cumpleaños

Birthday week! I spent the first days of March celebrating my first Birthday tranScending. Saw a friend’s show at he Zephyr Theater, ‘This Side of Crazy“, one of the best ‘blackbox’ shows I’ve seen in a while.

Valley of the Dolls

Woke up yesterday in a dark place. I’d been feeling amazing ever since starting therapy but the dark spectre of dysphoria showed up for breakfast and stayed all day. One of my online friends, an MtF person, suggested I’m in the ‘trough’ where my estrogen levels have dropped off, causing anxiety and depression, a common […]
