So I got my Stich Fix box today. I dunno, there's some cute stuff but a lot of that I'm either not ready for (open back? C'mon people I said go easy on me!) or I'm not paying 100 dollars for jeans. And if they're your thing more power to you but I think Cardigans are weird. LOL

I MIGHT keep the faded pink plaid button down. 😁

This was going around last night while I was otherwise occupied, but it's still true.

I don’t know who needs to hear it tonight, but you can just be a girl.

A picture of me in 2023 wearing a green #80 Jets jersey. Clearly, I am a woman.

Good morning, lovelies! ❤️

I know, I wasn't around yesterday, but I'm back today. I'm in the office on a cloudy day, but I've got my in person trans support group tonight, so I've got something to look forward to!

Go out there today and spread some love! 🥰

Good morning, lovelies! ❤️

Another busy morning in the office. I do have a networking event this afternoon, which will be...interesting. I haven't been to a networking event since before I started transition, and let's face it, I was never great at them. But maybe it'll be better now that I'm not pretending to be some dude.

Go out there today and spread some love! 🥰

Good morning, lovelies! ❤️

Yesterday marked 3 years since my egg cracked, so today is 3 years since I chose Julia as my new name.

I started brainstorming. The name Julia popped into my head, seemingly out of nowhere, and I immediately knew it was perfect. I looked at my FaceApp picture and thought yeah. she looks like a Julia. And that was that. 💗

Go out there today and spread some love! 🥰

Me: "OK, I fixed your problem, everything looks good."

Them: I need screenshots.

yells profanities because I'm luckily working from home and also because who the fuck asks for screenshots

sends screenshots

Them: Oh, I have this other issue...

Godammit, now they're just trolling me.

I just had someone hold the door for me when I was leaving the break room. I said, "Thank you." (For something that short and that I say pretty often, I can make my voice sound reasonably feminine.) He replied, "My pleasure." It very easily could have crossed over into ewwphoria territory, but he managed to say it in a way that didn't seem creepy.

So that was kinda nice.

Good night, all! Sweet dreams! ❤️

(And I hope they stop shooting off fireworks really soon around here, as well as wherever you are.)

Oh, and today I had an LGBT sandwich. It's just a BLT with guacamole. If you ask me, it's a pretty great combo.

why do other trans people have such cool life stories

I didn't try on my mom's clothes
I didn't hang out with the girls at school
I didn't play with makeup
I didn't "act like a girl"
I didn't hate my name
I didn't cross dress
I didn't let myself look inwards
I didn't get told "we always suspected" when I came out

I didn't know

I just felt sad and wrong and I didn't know why.
I was hollow and my emotions didn't make sense
every relationship I tried went sour because I didn't feel anything

if I didn't get that time during covid to really think, I might never have figured it out. I might have gone my entire life as a sad but ok most of the time, guy

it always hurts when I read or hear some trans person's journey as they recount every instance where it was "clearly a sign" and they were just born in the wrong body and they were basically a girl anyway and...

because of this, I just never related to these few trans people I saw in the public eye. I thought of it as this rare disorder that was for therapists to diagnose

it took me a while to realize it wasn't about who I had been. It was about who I wanted to become
