I didn’t think I’d actually go through with it and do it, but I did.
Now. I just can’t actually get my hopes up.

How am I doing you ask?
I’m applying for an MFA program (just one because I can’t take anymore rejection than that) because their applications are still open and what have I got to lose?

Oh but how does one keep going in the face of so much rejection?
Something has to give. At this point it might very well be me because I don’t know how much more of this I can take.

I have my interview for my dream job tomorrow at the company I’ve been with for a few years now. If I get it I am getting a head tattoo.

Listen nipple free top surgery is great. I finally look like the Ken doll of my dreams.
Having no nipples is not as weird as some people tried to make it seem to me.

Seroma drained 👍
Guess who has lost weight during their top surgery recovery—this is bad btw. My compression garment became too loose and now I have a seroma from a lack of compression. It’s getting drained to tomorrow and I will be getting a tighter binder 🥲👍
At least I caught the seroma early?

1 week post op. Still in my compression binder. Still so swollen. But for the first time in my life I am looking at myself.

The neurodivergent experience of making friends is hard, but for the first time in a long time I think I’ve finally managed to make a friend—and I took them to one of my favorite places in the city

Nearly a year ago to the day I was rejected from 5 MFA programs in one day. Today I watched my partner watch my dog while I went into a cafe to get us a nice breakfast treat. Life is strange. The grief I carry from those rejections is still heavy, but to have someone who loves me makes it less so.
