Had started coming out a lil bit ago to a few people here a few there then to one job i knew would be supportive. Slowly told some friends and then put it out publicly and just emailed my other job bosses to let them know so that they hopefully heard it from me first. Now that that's done even though I am incredibly nervous about how it will all pan out i am happy that I have nothing to hide now. No one to hide from. Everybody knows ... if they judge me then that's not my problem. I can express how i want or anything ... its like stepping out of a cage into a new world ... as a new person. No more secrets about who i am at home or what i think in my heart. It's incredibly nerve racking to be in this spot where i am ... however its all downhill from here.

I am having chest surgery in four weeks. I am super excited, and a little terrified. Nobody in my family knows. They're not supportive, and I don't want any passive-aggressive comments to bring me down. I'm sad that I feel I can't share this milestone with them.
