Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I also had leftovers for dinner. Black-eyed peas and kale (cooked with tomato sauce, hot sauce, and a little liquid smoke) and mashed sweet potatoes and apples with ginger and cinnamon. And now I'm contemplating baking something, but I think that's mostly because turning the oven on will make it a bit warmer in here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I couldn't resist putting this on Flickr, but I made it friends-only, since there are so many other people in the picture. [link] I'm jesse4nyc on there.

Punishingly Intricate

I think you made it private, Jesse.

Even though I was kind of a girly kid (not frilly dress girly but I did love dolls) I really thought being a tomboy was cool so I loved it the couple of times I was mistaken for a boy.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I would cut someone for a pot pie right now. Walked home three or so miles from work (UPHILL! IN THE SNOW! FOR REALS) and then dog park. Tired now.

Hmm. It says friends can see it.... Oh good lord, apparently I have everyone listed as a "contact," not a "friend." I'll just make it public for a while. [link]

I love every single thing about that picture. The people are, left to right, other kid, my dad, my mom, me, other mom.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was mistaken for a guy up through my thirties. Nothing my parents would have cared to engineer. They're so...traditional.

My father asked me to put aside...something...either my passion for martial arts or computers...this last vacation, and answer his question "as a woman". Even my mother dug that I wasn't even going to entertain that shit.

That having been said, I asked a cousin when her FTM sibling's birthday was. I think it was the first time I'd used the phrase "your brother" to her. It was weird. And then suddenly, quite normal.
