: Lunch picture :

Just wanted to post this photo of me and my friends. These are two of the senior vice presidents of my old firm, and we had a great time at lunch. It was nice getting caught up on what's happening with the firm. This is probably the first photo anyone has seen of me with my new glasses, in case you're wondering what's different:



I was caused quite a stir at the doctor's office, where they were so accomodating by adding my girl name onto my file and making an effort to use the proper pronouns. One of the doctors made a special visit to my exam room just to see me after my doctor told her I finally showed up in girl-mode - I've been coming there for the past six months in boy-mode, although everyone knew I was transitioning. It was a very liberating experience.

I also requested to start using injectible estrogen, 20 mg of delestrogen every two weeks. It's a little more painful, but it should be better for my health and maybe more effective - we'll see. I'll still have to take progesterone and testosterone blockers daily, but I can stop taking the two different estrogens in pill form, so that's fewer pills to tote around.

That's about it for today - again, have a nice weekend everyone!
