Both of my fans ;-) have been clamoring for some good news, so I promised Khyri I would see what I could do about that. (Actually, I want to thank all of my friends for their caring and concern.)
This summer has been a challenging time for me in many ways, although it has also had many rich rewards. One thing that has been clear since last spring, however, is that I need to make some big changes in my life.
First, I want – actually, I need — to change my job. One thing that has become clear since I went full-time last year and have become more involved in fighting for equal rights for trans, as well as, lesbian, gay and bisexual, people is that that’s where my heart lies. I get up every morning, turn on my laptop and start reading blogs and the various Yahoo groups I belong to, posting comments, and chatting with friends, giving support where I can, receiving it when I need it. I can quite easily and happily spend hours doing that — and often do. But, when the thought of my need to work and actually earn a living begins to creep into to my pleasantly occupied brain, instead of joy, I feel dread. Over the last few years, I’ve worked hard to learn to recognize when I’m having a feeling, something I had no clue about for most of my life, but you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to see that there’s something wrong with this picture.
