: One thousand visitors - wow... :

Fifty-one days ago, I started this blog to keep people informed on my life and to help shine some light on the transgender experience. Yesterday I looked at my counter and I noticed that I've surpassed 1,000 unique visitors to this site since it went live on Sept. 29, 2005.

What is really astonishing is that readers have visited me from all over the world, from every continent except Antarctica. People have logged on from Canada, the UK, South Africa, Germany, Spain, Denmark, Poland, Sweden, France, Iceland, Brazil, Kuwait, New Zealand, and the Seychelles (only one person that could be, right Nick?) Most of the people outside the U.S. most likely found me from the Transgender Boards, where I posted my site address once. I've also noticed that I'm one of only three TG blogs from Texas at an aggregation site called Transgender-blogs.com. I swear, there's a Web site for everything!

Some people also find me through links on the sites of some of my online friends, most of whom have been blogging a lot longer than I have. And of course, a lot of visitors are friends who knew me by my previous identity whom I told about this site by email.

It's a good time to say that since the holidays are coming up, I will probably be posting here a lot less than usual, not to mention that I'm undergoing cosmetic surgery in the next few weeks. I will try to post a few short updates just to let everyone know how I'm doing, but don't expect the lengthy, picture-laden posts you've become accustomed to seeing.

Whoever you are, thank you for taking the time to read a little about my life.
