Life Update #1

This is basically going to be a post about what is going on in my life right now.

Right now, there hasn’t been any progress in transition so far, but I’m planning on seeing a gender therapist as soon as I get a job. Speaking of that, I have a job interview at McDonald’s next Thursday. I know, not the most glamorous job, but I’ve got expenses that need to be paid and nowhere else has called me back except the Drury Inn. I’ve applied at least twenty places. Selling my stuff online isn’t going to cut it anymore, I need some sort of other income.

Also, sorry I haven’t blogged lately. My ADD and OCD have been acting up, so I haven’t really been able to focus on blogging everyday for a while. I’m hoping I’ll get better in making it a habit though.

In other news, my boyfriend’s birthday is soon. I proposed to him last night so he’s my fiancé now, and soon to be husband. I’m super excited and totally didn’t bawl like a baby when he said yes. I had asked his mom for her blessing that morning, which I was really nervous about for no good reason. The second I asked she said. “OF COURSE!” I was kind of shocked thinking, ‘man that was easier than I thought it would be.’

I was trying to wait for the perfect moment to propose. I thought maybe on Easter, when we go see my family, maybe when we go out to eat for his birthday, or maybe even on his birthday. But, I soon realized that I couldn’t wait any longer. Then I realized that any moment would be perfect as long as we were together. So, I told him what I was planning on telling him then got on one knee and proposed.

He was having a bad night, so I though it was the perfect opportunity to cheer him up. This morning we told his mother, my future mother-in-law, and got a big hug from her. Later today, we’re going to be able to tell his big sister Ali, if she hasn’t already seen it on Facebook.

I can’t imagine anyone else being as good for me as he is. I spent so much time thinking that no one could ever possibly love me because I’m trans. Then, he came along and loved everything about me, even the stuff I hated. He loves me unconditionally, he loves me for me.

Even if our lives aren’t that glamorous right now, we’re going to make it through together. He’s my best friend and lover. I couldn’t imagine life without him.

Right now, I’m waiting for my fiancé to get out of class and next to a nice older woman who is waiting for the bus. Anyway, that’s about all for this update. Thanks for reading! Tell me how your day is going in the comments.
