It took me three tries to leave the house this morning. First I left without a coat or umbrella, thinking it was barely raining and the walk between stations and buildings is less than two blocks, so I shouldn't bother. But when I stepped onto the porch and saw it was definitely raining, not just rain-ish, I went back up to get a coat. I left a second time, and got only a block away when I realized I forgot to get coffee. So I went back. Yes, I did. I walked back and filled my to-go mug and left a third time. This time I made it to the station.

( last night and emotional intensity )

I got my residency packet in the mail yesterday and I was pleased to discover my other MFABFF is in my workshop group again. There was also the dreaded registration form which included the money part, so I started to have second-thoughts about my income possibility and faith in being able to make it happen, but then I changed the subject before I could go down that path. I baked a cake instead.

Today I'm the special "guest speaker" at a lunchtime training session of interns on transgender issues and the law. I guess I should go read up on that.
