I keep forgetting to write something like this for Fedi, and people might make assumptions w/o the background:

My 2024 was _particularly_ unpleasant (however no-one shot at me, and if I was on fire I don't recall) and I basically fell over with a combination of burnout and exhaustion in the autumn. Then some more unpleasant happened so I could keep my hand in.

Recovery is... Slow.

Then HMG were like 'lol sucks to be you RN'

So I'm not flaky, I'm _tired._

Transition IS magic.

But someday I hope it’s the most boring thing about me. I want my life to be more than this one factoid.

I want it to be a blip in a life well lived - full of love and adventure. I want to tell stories of driving my Jeep up a cliff to get married, surfing in Costa Rica, hiking to the Oracle at Delphi, kissing the Blarney Stone, running my first marathon in Kaua’i, and the weeks long motorcycle tour I took on Route 66, and have it not matter if I did them before or after transition.
