dreaming of me

[dream_logic]

hello. i'm penelope (penny, if we're friends), and i'll be your hostess for the rest of the existence of this livejournal.

nobody really reads this lj anymore, so i though it would be a harmless, self indulgent soft open to my new identity. and i'm starting to get bored of pretending to be able to keep my lives apart, so let me catch you up to speed:

1. i used to be known as a boy named will.
2. at this point, i've been on estrogen for almost 4 months; so still at the beginning of a 5+ year process.
3. preferred pronouns are she/her, with the understanding that some level of largesse may be extended, depending on context and/or intention.
4. in many ways, i'm still the same person with the same interests.
5. in some ways, i'm very much not that person any longer.
6. this was not a choice ~ the real choice was to accept this, or to be dead.

you'll probably also notice some previous, recent entries seem to be about my transition as well. you'd be correct.

there's going to be a lot more to come.

i made this entry sticky, since it seems like a fairly pivotal moment in our relationship (yours, dear reader, with me).
