After a long and tortuous trip I’m now back in England in one piece … well, physically anyway.
I’ve left heart and my home in Olympia. I miss Miya and Sarah so much, I’m trying to put a strong face on things but inside I’m screaming. I’ve not been able to get more than a few [...]
Ok, so this update is a little late but I wanted to get my pictures up to go with it and I’ve been bogged down with SL5B (more on that in another post).
We left Pheonix about 10pm Sunday for Olympia, the car was packed to the gills and we still had to leave quite a [...]
Just been to see Indiana Jones and was quite surprised, I was expecting to be blogging today about how George Lucas had finally killed my inner child (which he did batter to within an inch of its life with star wars *shudder) but I really enjoyed this latest incarnation of Dr Jones. Yes, Harrison Ford [...]
We arrived very smoothly at Phoenix airport and were very quickly off the plane and meeting up with miya’s sister and brother in law who had kindly come to pick us up. Nipped out for a quick smoke while we waited for our baggage to come down and went from feeling ok to drained [...]

After a few hectic days of packing and giving things away, the last 31 years of my life has been reduced to two suitcases, a [...]
It’s been almost a week since miya and I decided to go vegetarian, for the most part we have been recovering from our tongue piercings so somewhat restricted in the kind of food we can consume anyway (noodles and soup!). So far the only bad experience on our new diet was a packet [...]
Weeeee!!!! After a POINTLESS interview the other day I have finally recieved my passport!! The UK passport office deserves a huge thumbs up! Simply of the basis of having already changed my name by deed poll, they requested a letter from my GP as to the status of my gender change. The letter from my [...]
Following on from news of my redundancy a few days ago, I got home from work feeling more than a little depressed. I had emailed the news home as soon as I knew it and spent the rest of the day worrying about the short term future, how to survive on what I would have [...]
I have never had a UK passport before, so when I applied this time I had to send my change of name deed poll with the forms. I was very carefull to tick the M gender box. I suppose that because of my female name and fem looking photo they have decided to write back [...]
