Today I listened to myself without becoming nauseous. Big Victory!

I trekked deep into the outer suburbs of Boston with my best local buddy to the land of Concord where a good far buddy and his music lives. I hadn't seen him or his wife in person in . . . since hell froze over.

I've written a new song, so he asked to hear it, but with a massive audience like that, I couldn't sing it live so I played a rough demo I'd recorded with my phone. And I all listened all the way through, without self-judgment. It's at least a good song they've know about since its beginnings back in November. But an awful recording. And he understands process and also didn't comment except to ask about the lyrics. I also played live a few instrumentals which are easier for me-- no self-judgment of my voice or lyrics with those. All-in-all it was a great breakout of my isolation to do the trip. And since I don't drive anymore, riding along felt like a real adventure in the splendid sunny but cool day. I also felt a bit more like my real self—that feminine side can't help but have her say these days—and I was OK with that.

Also, I'm listening to: "No Lovechild" by Corinne Bailey Rae.

Have a sweet Pride Month!

hugs,

Davie

He's a phone call to his parents
He's a bible by the bed
He's the t-shirt that I'm wearing
He's the song stuck in my head
He's solid and he's steady
Like the Allegheny runs
He knows just where he's going
And he's proud of where he's from

Finally getting to Rayna (fka Gavin) Russom's solo work. Right now, I gotta give all the boys a rest and get to all the music our trans sisters have been making, even if the results will be pretty mixed.

About a month ago, I heard "You Say" by Lauren Daigle on the radio. It was what I needed to hear it brought sad tears, yet by the end happy tears & hope. It still does today, a beautiful song.

Absolutely, a great song and performance: "You Say" by Lauren Daigle.

Strange that my last post didn't embed the URLs. Wonder what I did wrong?

 

Hi @Nikki-C The same happened to me a while ago :) If you copy and paste the URL at the top of the browser screen, the video won't be embedded. You have to click "Share" (just below the video screen, next to the likes and dislikes) and copy the (different) URL that you are provided.

      I'm with you on the Facebook avatars. My sisters asked me about mine
    • MaeBe
      All these beautiful people in my biography, I feel so blessed!   No fallout from the Facebook avatar thing, yet. I instantly deleted it, but I really do like the avatar I created. I'll have to recreate it when I'm more out to friends and family.   I guess they weren't dancing, one was blowing a birthday horn and mine was "like, omg, so surprised!"

      This is what I'm seeing too. I hate it but it is the current reality.  I expect more trouble in the future since "they now have the perfect excuse to let go the brakes." Kinda funny how quickly things turned against us.  I don't think we can really count on the Democrats either.

      I'm sorry, I don't want to be overly pessimistic, but I think to an extent the truth is irrelevant here. There is an absolute torrent of transphobes-were-right-all-along stories emerging in the wake of the Cass Review, not to mention the WPATH Files. These are coming not only from the usual anti-trans suspects, but from reputable newspapers like the Washington Post and the New York Times. (David Brooks in the Times: "Hilary Cass is the kind of hero the world needs today.") And while I'm aware that both those outlets have been leaning anti-trans for a while, they now have the perfect excuse to let go the brakes.   Ultimately, all that's needed for governments to ban these treatments is enough public support, and I suspect that support may be rapidly growing. Since I work with trans kids, cis folks often bring up the topic with me when they have "concerns", and I have been amazed at the number of otherwise reasonable people who have latched on to classic anti-trans tropes like social contagion or the idea that trauma causes transness. Whereas in the past they were generally convinced quite easily by my obviously superior knowledge, I'm expecting the task of convincing them to get harder starting as of now.

      In those dimensions, not even Sophia Loren could hold a candle to me. A Goddess....in my own mind. lol

      So, just imagine how spectacularly beautiful you'd be in four-dimensions April.
    • Ivy
      That does sound hard to keep up with.  I use patches, changed twice a week.  But I have to have my phone set to remind me.  I just don't think about it.
    • April Marie
      Oh, I am drop-dead gorgeous in a totally different dimension @Sally Stone! :-)

      Ladies, each of your comments makes me realize my decision to share my journey was a good one.  Before committing, I worried that my storyline wouldn't be of interest to anyone. I'm so glad I'm striking a chord with many of you.

      I am sorry to hear that. It just means something better is in your future!

      How we look in photographs isn't really anything we can control.  I've actually searched for answers and there are lots of good explanations out there like this one:   https://www.foxbackdrop.com/blogs/news/beautiful-photogenic-reasons-tricks-foxbackdrop#:~:text=Based on the light-creation,angular faces are usually photogenic.   The simplest explanation is a picture captures our image two-dimensionally when in real-life, we are seen three-dimensionally.  A person can be beautiful or handsome in real life but the two-dimensional image can be way different.  So, for those of us that don't think we look good in a picture, fear not.  We are much better looking in three-dimensions.

      This is your journey and no one here will judge you or bully you. This is a very accepting, non-judgemental place and you can process at your own speed. Having said all welcome Violet, we are glad you found us. I know we all look forward to hearing from you.

      Good morning    I should not have said about sleeping in, now I have to go in 2 ½ hours earlier.  Oh well at least I. Off tomorrow and Monday, I think.as of now, hope I didn’t just jinx that too.     Hot today high 80s dropping quickly and rain to the 60s for a couple of days then more normal 70s.  It just depends on which way the wind blows. Off the gulf, hotter, off the ocean, cooler, out of the north rain and when they all converge, look out.  That’s today.   i made a pot of coffee but I think most of it is going to waste.  My wife went back to bed and I’m not good with coffee when I’m hot, and I am. That’s my fault, I was 4 days.late with my E again.  I just st have a really hard time keeping on a 10 day schedule.  And my reminders aren’t helping..   now I’m going to peak by tomorrow since it isn’t all absorbed in one day, I’ll hold fairly steady but if I’m late again I’ll drop well below my target yet again.     Im down in the valley, the valley so low But I see my true love, at the top of the hill i climb the mountain, but she is not there for she has gone back down, to the valley below   I didn’t come up with a refrain and with that I’m calling the guys with the padded cells. lol   Willow
