I was too busy having fun with Nathaniel and I kept forgetting my camera, so I don't have a ton of pictures from this visit, sadly. On the plus side, Nathaniel never forgot his camera, so he has loads! Head on over to his journal to see. (His post has 99 pictures, I think, so beware if you have a slow connection!)

Yesterday I changed my sex with Social Security! I changed my name with Social Security nearly ten years ago, and it's been nearly six years since I had top surgery, but I never bothered changing my sex with Social Security because the office was a schlep to get to, and it hadn't interfered with anything employment-wise; I wasn't bothered about ( Read more... )

Nathaniel and I had talked a considerable amount about what he was getting me for Chanuka, because it was a shirt and he wanted to be sure it was just what I wanted and that it would fit me, and because I hate surprises. I ordered a Chanuka present for him online a little while back, to try and make sure it would get there by today, and tried to ( Read more... )

It’s been a few days since Nathaniel left and I’m slowly adjusting to not having him here. He posted updates while he was here ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8), but I had neither the time nor the inclination to do that! I prefer to just do a big info-dump at the end, but I’d have a much harder time remembering everything if he didn’t keep such good notes ( Read more... )

A few days ago, I received a very sweet postcard from ganimede, picked up at a place we'd visited in Southport. I flipped it over, eager to see what he'd written ...

... and that little jerk had rickrolled me.

Michael: What's it like to be English? *ducks*

Nathaniel: Better than it is to be American. :-P

Michael: *poke*

Nathaniel: You know what it's like to be English! We all have our own castles, which come complete with ( Read more... )

Nathaniel has just booked his tickets to come back to Boston! The flights are a bit more expensive than they've been on past trips, I think, but it's not too bad, and the flight times are actually pretty convenient for once. I can't wait to see him again! I can't believe it's already been 5.5 months, and it'll have been 7.5 months by the time he ( Read more... )

I'm off to the Northeast FTM Campout for the weekend! I'll be back Sunday evening. My computer will be off (gasp) while I'm gone, and my phone doesn't really get reception out there, so try not to miss me too much ( Read more... )

A raccoon lives under my deck. This is not a good thing, but the silver lining is that I get to see her babies. This is the second year that I've got to see her out with her babies. Last year there were four; this year there are five ( Read more... )

A week or two ago, my computer decided to crash and not boot. Some troubleshooting established that the motherboard* seemed to have spontaneously fried itself - it was clearly receiving power, but wouldn't POST**, no matter what I did. Since I needed a new motherboard, I decided this would be a good opportunity to upgrade my CPU*** as well. I ( Read more... )
