I'm transgender.

Mostly this is to get my previous journal off my front page. I need to move on. So have a less-downright-depressing dose of my personal life!
No, I won't tell you if I'm coming or going. Although it will probably be obvious. Or maybe not? Who knows? Anyway I had blood drawn today for hormone testing and that was pretty terrible feeling, but it's the first medical step to sorting, uhm, all of 'this' out. Mainly I keep staring at the bandaid and remembering how much of a pansy I am (I fainted, go figure) so I might or might not think of it the same way tomorrow but somehow it seems significant.
Also hey, FA you are a pretty open place and call me assumptive but I figure there are other people questioning their gender or sexuality who might see this so, uhm, hooray for that and all. So if that applies to you- you're OK, kid!

ffff do what you want 'cuz a pirate is free
You fainted while getting blood drawn? Man, I went in a couple days ago to get blood taken and I was panicking and almost left, and I was all "what does it feel like?" and the doctor said "like this" and pinched.. and it actually hurt less then how hard she pinched it. I was surprised.
You just don't like blood? or is it needles?
not much drama to stir or whatever
The needle didn't hurt at all, I was pleasantly surprised about that, but the longer it stayed in the worse it got. I was fine seeing the blood go through the tube and into the vials, I mean I had no mental objection, but it felt like I was losing blood at like a pint per second or something. Worst I've ever felt getting needlework done, my head felt like it was splitting.
my dad told me he had to go in and get FIVE TUBES DONE!!!
but i like my boobies ;.; XD
i wish i had the bravery to go through the surgeries and such.
i even had the random thought the otherday of how convenient it would be if i got breast cancer and they had to remove them x.x;;
HUGGGGGZ at you!
