questioning my status

There are times when I question this strange thing I am, because in all honesty, it doesnt seem to make a lot of sense to me. I mean, intersex people, that kinda makes sense, and you can get tests done and know you belong to that category. But me, my fem side is literally only in my head, and short of an autopsy when I die, there isnt any way to be 100 % sure I 'm not just crazy.,

Ah, well.

Hoping to post Chapter 8 of Reckoning

by Saturday, Sunday at the latest. I've had a computer failure of my MacBook which required taking it to the repair place for surgery. Apparently we experienced a power surge which attacked the inverter, which is in the hinge where it opens, and also burned out the LCD, which lights the screen.

Approximately 200 dollars or so later, I might have it back by Friday. I've been using my old desktop, which I fortunately never got around to taking down and storing away. ALL the relevant info I need to post the story is, of course, on the Mac.

Germany: Transgendered kid will be send to mental institute, please help

Hi everyone.
In Berlin a transphobic court has admited the transgendered girl Alex into a mental institute. Apparently there was a custody battle between father and mother and the father used the youth office to seperate the transgendered kid from her mother, since the mother "induced" transsexuality. A youth worker decided that the transsexuality had been "induced", after talking to the kid for about an hour. In the process neither the child, nor her doctors nor independend experts were heard.

Reading the above article has kind of got me curious about Amazon self-publishing. Word of mouth advertising in this day and age is actually pretty huge. There's a #1 bestseller, the name of which I've completely forgotten now (It was referred to as "Twilight for Moms" in a recent news article :-P) that was huge with eReaders, IIRC. So, yeah. I'm thinking about using this to publish Book one of Becoming Robin.

a way to deal with old grief?

At my counseling session today, my counselor suggested I find a way to process all the grief I went through as a kid by having some kind of mourning ritual. The death of my father, the loss of my innocence, the "burying" of my girl self, all need to be grieved over. I'm not sure what form this should take, but it sounds like a good idea.

But the other way was to get to I80 in Sacramento and take that to the Bay Bridge.

At the border though, in Toledo, many Muslims have to hide the fact. While at home they practice their religion in secret, many have to go so far as to "Anglicize" their names in order to get by on the Confederate ran streets.

Well, the new chapter of 300 Rains is up. It is a bit longer than usual, as there were things that had to be covered. Things are certainly moving to conclusion and plot threads are tightening up. All that pretty much remains is NatGeo and the tribe. :) Should be fun.

I'm like a baby

I was talking to a friend at work, and mentioned my age, and then it hit me. I might have lived 45 years on this planet, but in some ways, I'm actually only about two. It was about two years ago that I went to my rape therapy dressed, which has led me to starting a transition. It would explain why everything feels so fresh, so new to me.

Maybe someday, I'll take things like having my hair long or developing boobs, or being accepted as a woman for granted, but it hasnt happened yet, and I kinda hope it never does.

Hi everyone I'm back! I got out of the hospital yesterday, and I've been reading some of the stories and commenting, but I'm having a few issues finding time to do everything. I do have the next chapter of Wild Magic, I'm just doing some editing and polishing before I post it. I'll have it up today.

Life's little reminder

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

Today, life gave me a little reminder. I remember now that it does not matter how hard you try, how hard you work, how much you want something or how much you need something. No matter what, it will never be enough. I would like to thank Life for giving me this reminder. I really needed it. I was actually starting to feel good about myself and the direction my life has been going. I have never been one for alcohol but today I could use a stiff drink.

have you ever heard of a boy named VIvian

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

I was reserching feminine names for a boy and I found quite a few names that I expected. Like Stacey, Ashley, Leslie, Kelly, Cassidy. Jamie, Sydney. I have heard or known boys with all of those names. Stacey is quite a large guy. But it still seems strange.

But then I came across names I would never consider for a boy. Heather, Camille, Hillary, Brooke and Vivian. Can you imagin a boy with those names. But reserching boys named Vivian, I came across one that must had been around the 1800s, Vivian Usherwood.

Update on transition

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Blog About:

Today I had my first counseling session so I can transition. It went very well. I am happy that the counselor doesn't want to dwell on the past, because neither do I. I am tired of doing counseling where I relive all the past traumas of life. Let's leave it in the past where it belongs and live in the now. I am not disassociating with my past, I'm not saying it didn't exist or that it happened to the boy I am not, but I'm tired of being depressed about things. The counselor is an F2M which proves body swapping should be legalized and we can all find the body we are happy with.

Road to Myself - 27: Lurching Steps Forward?
Annette MacGregor

How do we define forward? Is it based on a long term goal? On a short term goal? What's the difference between lurching steps and smooth transitions? Why use terms like this?

My hair

One of the biggest improvements I've noticed is with my hair. Not only is it softer than its been in years (feels like silk to the touch, no lie), but its now long enough that I can actually feel it move. I'll be walking along, and I can feel my hair bounce, and it feels so feminine and just ... right. Like something I hadnt even realized was missing has been returned to me.

Now, if I could only do something about the bald spot in the front....

Status of projects

Edeyn So, I received a Private Message inquiring into a couple of my projects that have been left hanging, and my intentions as to those projects... I responded, and then thought that perhaps others would like to know as well. I mean, I may not be worth caring about, but some of my stories might be...

This is what I wrote in response:

C’est ècrit

C’est á¨crit

Elle te fera changer
La course des nuages
Balayer tes projets
Vieillir bien avant l’á¢ge
Tu la perdras cent fois
Dans les vapeurs des ports
C’est écrit…..

Elle n'en sort plus
De ta mémoire
Ni la nuit, ni le jour
Elle danse derriá¨re
Les brouillards
Et toi, tu cherches, et tu cours

Et tu ráªves, tu ráªves….
Qu'est-ce qu'elle aime
Qu’est-ce qu’elle veut
T’en passeras des nuits
ဠregarder dehors
C'est écrit....

Et ses ombres qu'elle te
Dessine autour des yeux
Et ces ombres qu’elle te
Dessine autour des yeux

Want to Write but What to Write

I should write more, but for some reason I'm finding it hard to actually do it. I want to improve my writing skill, do something creative and constructive instead of just consuming the stories here, but I've always put it off because I've felt that I can't live up to my own expectations or that I can't match the intricate and clever plots of the authors here or other silly excuses. Maybe I should just write from the heart.

Film

I settled down to reread some of my stuff, partly to keep a consistency in the characters I am writing. In 'Ride On' I refer to a Vanessa Redgrave film, 'Second Serve', and as a bear of little brain I had never looked it up.
It is on You tube.
