Well, I got an unexpected act of kindness from Sharon last night.

I had told her that I had been struggling with tears all day, and she said if I wanted to her to go with me to a counseling session, she would be willing, even if it meant seeing me in a skirt.

Of course, that's not how counseling works - they would never let her sit in on a session, unless it was for couples counseling. But the gesture was well-intended, so I have to give her praise for it.

I don't know how I got so lucky with the people who love me in terms of dealing with my transition, but I wish I could give it to all my trans friends here ...
