Glum

Be forewarned, this is a whimpery brief post, sent via a faint nearby wireless connection while a freezing cold snow storm out of nowhere rages on outside (sense the tone of gloom and doom yet?).

In a nutshell, today - well, ... sucks.

The biggest suck factor stemming from being told that severance would come knocking either Monday, Tuesday of this week or - at the latest - today. Unfortunately, I haven't received it yet, which I've been depending on to be able to afford hormones. My next injection is supposed to be tomorrow. Yet, I'm anxious about if I'm going to be able to or not.

I also haven't received any information from COBRA about insurance, so I have no idea how much hormones will cost being uninsured.

Sigh
.

There's more to whine and whimper about in regards to snags with receiving unemployment, a disconnected phone, moving, uneventful job or apartment hunting, and feeling pathetic all around. Which then leads to letting more get to me that I generally try to feel hopeful and upbeat about; like feeling that I'm never going to be able to live a genuinely fulfilling, happy, functional life with such severe dysmorphia that just wreaks havoc on my esteem every.single.day. I feel ashamed letting it get to me - stress, worry. But it sneaks up every so often, and results in profanities and a little picked on party every so often.

  1. OH SAD!

    I guess this means you didn't get my message about how I couldn't leave my door open today, huh, I hope, I hope, you didn't wonder over there to find out it was locked.

    You can whine to me all you need, if anyone understand down and glum feelings it is I.

PART 1: Double Incision Mastectomy with Nipple Grafts by Dr. Cori Agarwal Surgery Photos (EXTREMELY GRAPHIC)

Earlier today I learned that Dr. Cori Agarwal’s medical secretary would come in to take photographs during my 3 hour surgery on August 11, 2011. As a warning, these photos are extremely graphic , but also incredibly informative and educational. This is why I’m displaying them after the “read more” button below instead of as a photo gallery.

Exciting News from Utah!

Exciting things are happening in Salt Lake City, Utah! Last night there was a panel specifically about employment discrimination based on gender identity and a proposed diversity bill. It received a fair amount of media coverage, like this article in the Salt Lake Tribune: After losing her job, transgender Utahn fights workplace discrimination Salt Lake City resident Candice Metzler wanted to let her work colleagues see the transition she already had begun in her personal life. Known to them as a man, Metzler wore mascara, eyeliner and white-tipped acrylic nails to a company barbecue.
