So what right? nothing new in that with me. hah. just a short update, school has started for a good two weeks now.

A Day in the Life...

This was taken from a message to a friend, which I've expanded quite a bit. Wednesday. "Hump Day" for the fortunately employed, but rather hellish for me.(It's funny... I googled "tough day" and got the above image. How ironic... don't ya think?)It's been a very busy week here. We were in danger of losing the apartment, but thank goodness my mother helped us. Nikki just started working about tw

Amy and The Karavan of Kiddos
Coming soon to a theatre near you! Okay, seriously then. What you see to the left is me (duh), with Skylar in this new wagon we got. You see, we only have one car, and it's been malfunctioning quite often. Dropping Nikki off at work and picking her up puts a lot of wear and tear on that old thing... and makes us have to buy gas every three days as well.Sarah and Savannah's schools won't bus them.

Driver License Redux!
I have to be an old pro at this by now. I've now gotten three different driver licenses in three different states, all with my preferred name (legal for three years now), and with an 'F' for the gender marker. Arizona was the easiest of them all. You can read about how I got my New York license here (July, 2007) and how I got my Michigan license here (July, 2009). I was a month late this time, bu

Meet Rachel, a Transgender Child

I've been very privileged to meet some transgender children since moving to Arizona. Today I'll talk about one of them. Her name is Rachel and she's nine years old. Despite having short hair (I'll get to that), she looks like a girl, and acts like one. If you saw the attitude, the spunk, that this girl gives off, well you should not doubt for a second that she's indeed female. Her mother's name i

I'm Baaaa-ack!
Hmmm, where do I start? It's been a month and a half since I last posted. Why, do you ask? It's been hard for me to settle down to a routine since moving to Arizona. That, and we used to have two computers running. We still have the other computer, but we need a desk and a new mouse. The mouse won't click, and the desk is back in Michigan. (There were quite a few things we just couldn't fit in th
