WEEK 13 CHECK-IN:

Trans Life Past: This next week will be divided between the two friends who are ignornat of this journey for different reasons. No worder I’m so exhausted!

  • Yep, that was an exhausting week
  • In transition news, all the hair, all the exhaustion.

Goal: My goal this week is to try not to stress. To try to just enjoy the time hanging out with my two friends and being as me as I can be without falling into the trap of wearing the mask they know. I’m going to trust in the universe to help me live authentically and organically and what will be, will be. In other words, my goal is to just freakin’ chill!

  • Nope — fail-boated that. Went full mask and was exhausted as hell for it.
  • I didn’t chill at all. In fact, my anxieties were off tap and Jasper was coming through hot and strong!

Gratitude:

  • I’m grateful to every single trans-masculine and AFAB non-binary person I’ve met over the past year. I’m grateful to all the beautiful trans-femme peeps too but today, I want to shout out my trans-brothers and masc siblings because every connection, every story, every interaction has helped me on my journey.

Physical Changes:

  • I think I’m a chimera! My left everything is bringing in the hair faster than the left — it’s amusing and annoying.
  • I’ve been a little complacent with checking for physical changes. Complacent or just allowing it to all happen?

Other notes:

  • Happy New Year all!
  • I saw Spiderman No Way Home at the Drive-In because Spiderman!
  • Exhaustion has been very real — I legit ‘napped’ for six hours a few days ago. I don’t remember ever having done that before.

And on to WEEK 14:

Trans Life Ahead: I only have one move this week so that’s nice. I’ll be in the city for the first five days of the year before heading back out east. I’m still not quite ready to go out (at least, not on my own and I don’t really have anyone to go with me) as ‘me’. I’m not sure if and when that will change and what affect T will have on that. Just my thoughts going into 2022 as the fireworks on the television mark my first Happy New Queer. This will be the first year I haven’t been worn the cishet mask of expectation.

Goals: Uni’s back and so begins the year of editing. My goals this week are to EDIT and to pre-emptiviely draft out my major assignments for uni.
