Life Happened...

Hey ya'll -

I am so sorry it's taken me so long to get back in front of the computer! It was October when I last wrote an entry and just so you know I haven't been twiddlin' my thumbs lately, I'll just list the number of BIG things that have happened since then -

*Rey was published in the first ever anthology of transgender short fiction!
*I applied for and was offered a job at Portland State University in Oregon - and I accepted it!
*Rey had his top surgery October 26th
*Rey started taking testosterone November 8th
*We moved ourselves and our two cat children to Portland via a cross-country roadtrip that beat all at the beginning of December (we had to give our turtle to someone else because we didn't think he'd make that long trip)
*I transitioned into my new job, working a satisfying but long 10-11 hours/day for the first few months
*We moved again at the beginning of May to our more permanent home here in Portland after having spent six months at a temporary apartment complex.

I'm sure I'm missing stuff but seriously - that's one jam packed 8 months, wouldn't you say? I really can't even believe all that happened at the same time!

Anyway so I've got some catchin up to do! Let's see how well I can do that for you in a timely manner. :)
