progress of pauline @pauline@myna.social

Had my last voice lesson of the year before intubation temporarily makes me sound like 85-year-old Elza Soares. Relearning how to sing has been one of the joys of this whole transition thing and I recommend it to absolutely anyone in such circumstances. #LGBTQ #Trans teachers are pretty great about offering sliding-scale lessons if you need them.

@nicole Also they told me 1.5g! Am I on the extra-restricted bad kids diet because they know about me and pickles?

I've been through ICWA provisions a few times because of the work LawBox does for the Texas Children's Commission, and this year all their docs are prefaced with "Oh, btw, everything below could be imminently upended at any point."

@nicole Overachiever.

@nicole Okay fine by "no sodium" I really mean "they won't let me eat the whole jar of kimchi any more."

Setting this thing up could have been worse! Okay! This is like day six with no sodium and it's been no better than any of those preceding, sweet dreams.
