Welcome!

Hi. I'm Caitlyn. I was born male, but after 40 some years of fighting against the female that I've always known I am, I've decided to begin my transition. This blog is a journal of my transgender journey. I hope that it will help people understand what being transgendered is all about, and the struggles that people like me go through on a daily basis. As I continue through this transition, I know that my therapist and I are going to uncover a lot about what makes me tick. It should be a great learning experience; sometimes dark and scary, sometimes joyful, but always honest.

A funny thing happened to me on the way to female

This past weekend was a banner weekend for me. I finally got up the nerve to take pictures of me to share with the world; well, a small part of it anyway. It all started when I painted my fingernails. I only did this once before a long time ago, but I had a lot of trouble removing all of the evidence of polish and it freaked me out cause I was afraid my family would notice. So, I never did it again till this weekend.

After I finished I was sitting in the living room with Bubbles and and my daughter Truffles and I said something about the job I did not being bad for a first time (because it basically was). Truffles looks at them and says "You mean this is the first time you did your nails? That's better than I can do!" We laughed and then she bursts out with "THIS IS NOT FAIR!! My dad is a better girl than I am!!"

I just about died laughing, cause she was totally serious! It was very funny!
