The big reveal:
“Tina Kay/Tina Ann” is me, only I think if I’m going to be femme I would go by Ann instead of Tina.
I’m probably going to let that account rot. It was helpful but having 2 accounts is just 1 too many to keep track of. (sorry in advance subscribers)
I don’t know, the week was uneventful I suppose. My boss is aware and I self-updated my gender in the system, but I’m still not doing more than that at work. There may be someone at work I’ll let know as well?
Saturday there were all these protests, but I didn’t go to them. I spent 2 hours talking with my new BFF from bowling, Amanda. I have…a friend. Which is fine, I’m still 50/50 finding love vs. being a reclusive swamp witch (ha, in a freaking condo!) for the rest of my days. We kind of have a lot to deal with anyway. But I roped her and one of my other teammates from regular league into bowling the sport league (Pro mode) and it’s not fun, although! She might have high score for women after this week which made her feel better. Also she’s supportive of me being Ann if I go ahead with that.
I’m still not sure Ann isn’t the “swamp witch” character part of me rather than the whole thing, but I did spend time IN the swamp this morning. Just feels good and whatever other humans are doing doesn’t exist there. (supposedly poisonous snakes exist? not thinking about them). Can’t elaborate more than that.
Also…I have a dress! Thanks Cartoons Hate Her for putting the goth dress in that survey. It’s not THAT dress but same company VampireFreaks.com. The packaging is LOUD and after coffee I went home to pick it up and one of the neighbors was also there looking at it! (USPS is delivered to the common mail area, not my door) So of course we had to chat a bit. I didn’t tell her it was a dress but I did say I guess I’m the vampire freak now! “Swamp Witch” Ann is now ready for goth night, Halloween, or funerals. It’s a bit over the top for wearing to anything normal, I suspect? (Even today’s trans women centering event, which I also did not go to) My favorite reddit comment is “You look like you hired a detective to investigate the murder of your husband, which you committed”
…I simply hastened his inevitable demise, is all.

“poisonous snakes” - I laughed out loud, for real. And that dress is not OTT! I’d wear that to the grocery store, or to a parent-teacher conference, or to do the dishes (ha! I don’t do dishes—but you get the point)
Still, WHY am I so excited?!
OMG! I haven’t read past "“Tina Kay/Tina Ann” is me” yet, but I had to interrupt! I thought there was something familiar about Tina/Ann! OMG! Why am I so excited?!
I will let you continue now… Where was I? Oh ya...
