  Well, I've spent a lot of time thinking about outting myself at work. I'm not sure how this will go. I could be fired on the spot because I live in a "fire at will" state and have no contractual agreement between myself and the people that I work for. I want to move forward with my transition and I can't really do that without coming out. I don't have that many friends but I'm sure I will lose some once I'm out. Some people might say "Youi're too old" or Why do you need to do that now, at his point in your life?" Just once in my life I would like mind and body to be on the same page. Just once, I want to look in the mirror and like who I see looking back at me. Warts and all. I don't ever expect to find love again but friendship and kindness would be wonderful. A hand to hold, a smile. I guess we'll find out where I go from here. Wish me luck...
