I've been reminding my mother on every opportunity to use my preferred name, and I have also been neglecting to do my laundry. Today instead of shouting my given name to get my attention, she shouted "WILLIAM! COME DO YOUR LAUNDRY NOW OR I'LL THROW THAT STUPID LAPTOP OF YOURS IN THE GARBAGE!" Never before have I been so thrilled by threats of destruction of my personal property.
Long Live The Queen.

...Any progress is good progress, I guess. I hope it sticks.
I once had a nightmare about chickens pecking me to death on my driveway. I told my sister to save herself.

This is the #1 nightmare.

It didn't stick (see "Things That Annoy You" for just how 'unstuck' it is), but thanks for the encouragement. It makes sense, though, that a meltdown comes right after a breakthrough: she's forced to admit to herself that I really am William, but the cognitive dissonance caused by that realization makes her rethink the "vagina = girl, penis = boy" assumption she's held her whole life. Rather than act like an adult about it, she's being a fundamentalist baby with a persecution complex.
Long Live The Queen.

I put together a crowdfunding explanation/proposal for the Australian Indigenous Corporation I volunteer for and the CEO told me it was bloody brilliant and I was magnificent.

Please don't tell me Warren Mundine is involved.

No. We're a grassroots Indigenous Corporation.

I got a letter from the family of the child I'm sponsoring. I'm excited to start corresponding with them. :)

I was extraordinarily depressed earlier today after I realized that I've spent more of my life being an ex than being in a relationship, until my cat curled up near my head and washed my face. It helped convince me that I'm still lovable.

Cats seem to be pros at sensing depression and comforting people who have it.

Note to self: Hug own cat later.
