Ugh. My day (and, indeed summer) has just taken a decided turn for the worse, so I could use some cheering up. Could some kind-hearted soul explain the gayness of the pun to this innocent maiden? (Adds to already immense file of evidence that Qunnessaa should really try a bit harder to understand how the other bit-less-than-half of the gender spectrum lives, much as she loves her happy gynous bubble.) :)
The entire contretemps might also involve a difficult decision between surgery in the fall (as opposed to next summer) and a very good opportunity for professional development if I can snag a teaching assistantship for the right course. (It’s still up in the air because, naturally, the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at my uni is struggling with a ludicrous budget cut this year.)
Apart from just being on the verge of tears generally today, since I’ve been off my hormones to get ready for the date initially set for my SAS, it’s been that just more fun today with my balance already all over the place. Second adolescence: gotta love it.
Still, after a flurry of emails, I might be able to salvage something of this summer, and the fact that I can even hope to do so makes me painfully aware that these are middle-class first world problems.

Thanks, everyone, for the support. You really are all too sweet!
There will be a lot of running around for the next couple of days while I try to get in touch with everyone I need to so that I can work out a tentative plan going forward, but I work with some seriously great people at my uni, so even if it turns out there’s not much we can do, I know they’ll stand with me.
I hope everyone else’s week is going well.
On a completely unrelated note: I thought that was the general direction your pun was headed, Rysky, but I couldn’t have guessed that that was how it would get there. One learns something every day, I suppose. :) And I hope everyone continues to be as silly as they please: seeing other people have fun here is helping me get to a happier space. Good night, all!

Hello everyone. *hugs*
Just coming by to say hi and let people know I am still around. Thing have been neither good or bad just static really...so I guess that is not the best thing but I am learning to deal with the frustration better.
There another PFLAG meeting this Wed. I am not sure if I am going or not.,.

Okay, people. I'd like a show of hands. Everyone knows about the Gamemastery Combat Pad, right? The metal sheet you place magnets on, right? Who thinks that it's a good project to implement one in software?
While it seems on the surface like it might be a good idea, my limited virtual tabletop experience has been that the tabletop application has an inherent 'combat tracker' within it.
If it's a hobby you're poking at, I'd say give it a shot and see what you come up with (sort of like the PFS Tracker team's pet project). If it's trying to invest serious money I'd say hold off for now?
Be safe and careful out there, kids!

Right now, it's just to see if I can do it. A little project that I can add to my code base and my repertoire.

I could see it as an app for phone/tablet for people (like me, despite spending a lot of my life in front of a screen) who use no / very little other virtual helpers at the gaming table - so I would second the go for it!

Okay, as soon as I learn how to program tablets. Sadly, the best that I can do right now is develop it as a standalone Windows program.

So... I have an appointment next week to go to the doctor's for a check up, since I haven't been for one in a while and I haven't gone since I got my new insurance through work.
I'm also going to be talking about potentially starting HRT (with a doctor who comes well-recommended as someone who specializes in caring for trans folks).
It's exciting but I'm also a little nervous. Like... what do I wear? Casual-femme chic? Should I go for the good eyeliner? Idk.

dress as you feel. If there was a day to go chic, it is that day.

I am sure you will do fine if you wear what you feel like (can you be anything less then awesone?).

That is fine, I use a windows tablet ;-)

Yay, mechaPoet!
For what it’s worth, like the others have said, go with what feels comfortable for you. If you’re ordinarily a good eyeliner sort of person, or that’s how you’re feeling on the day, go for it, but otherwise don’t beat yourself up about it. (Mind you, this is coming from a girl who intends to avoid makeup for the rest of her life if she can manage it, still rocks (though admittedly uneasily) her old slacks from before starting her transition, and was very very lucky in the doctor she was assigned randomly at her campus clinic, so YMMV.)
In terms of starting HRT, I’m not sure how it works in your part of the world, but in the parts of Canada I move around in, I’ve found that GPs are very leery about even renewing hormone prescriptions if one’s between endocrinologists, so you might be referred to a specialist first. But, circling back again to what to wear, in my experience, folks are more concerned with what social support network one has in place than in policing presentation.
I hope everything goes well for you!

Posting this using WiFi from the local McDonald's, so I'll have to be quick. A Windows Tablet will be fine, if it uses an Intel or AMD processor. My compilers can't handle anything else.

Finished my last assignment so I'm officially done with the school year! Now I have two weeks of vacation before I start work and I'm very excited for the internship I got so this summer is looking pretty nice!
My new PF game is also all queer people (and only 2 of them are cis!) so that's a really fun time.

Hi, I've never posted here before because, well, I'm a white straight male. You know, part of the demographic that sadly has the highest number of jerks per capita. But today during my lunch hour I saw this:
Trans cartoonist forced to cancel Halifax book launch 'overwhelmed' by community support
I couldn't believe that even today, in Canada, this could happen!! Not the support, but the fact that people threaten and that she had to cancel. I've managed to read some of her web comic, and I find them funny. Though, because of the attacks, the main website seems to be down, but her Facebook page still had some. If you can, I would suggest you take a look.
Ok, going back in lurking mode so that I can continue reading your comments and learn.
