In the chaos, the Sturm und Drang, the anger and depression and resignation, the scramble and desperation, the sheer wall of stupefying bullshit that has ensued since Sunday night, I've found myself with little energy left over for the blog. And it's a shame, as April 14th does, truly, mark it's conclusion as a day-to-day journal. Hence, no entry ( Read more... )

Your view on the past gave me delight to read. I have a couple of transgender friends that I knew/know before, during, and after their transition. It always troubled me that they wanted to erase their past -- on the advice of so many, too. I loved you then; I love you now. It doesn't change. Everyone evolves as they grow. Obviously a transgender individual has a more dramatic evolution (although that word seems inadequate...I'm probably stepping all over people's sensitivities here and I don't mean to, honestly). I almost want to say trans-volution. Is that a word? Maybe it should be. Regardless, I do believe that what happened then is what makes us the cool and interesting people we are today. Do I think my transgender friends are happier now? Fuck, yeah. But, I still love to see the photos of us when we were stupid neophytes in the world trying to figure it all out. It gave me a bit of sadness that they didn't share those happy thoughts viewing the same photo.

I haven't seen Frozen yet, nor Grand Budapest Hotel. The later was on my "to see" list. But, Frozen, not so much. However, given that our film tastes seem to align often, I'll have to maybe take an opportunity to view Frozen.

I'm so jealous you guys have good Korean food around you. I have to go deep into the city to find it and then I find I can do a better job of it myself.
