Wedding Update

Sorry I have been gone for so long, this wedding has been taking a lot of my physical time and energy. It’s 3 weeks away and I’m excited! Although it’s just ripped right through my budget and I find myself close to broke now… It’s hard to believe how people can afford this considering how much we aren’t doing. I think it’s going to be okay, I hope it’s going to be okay. actually I’m almost completely out of money and have a lot of things that still need paid off. But I guess it will be worth it.

Some History:
Ryan and I met 5 years ago online. I was in a trans community that was about loveing trans bodies and as such we posted some risqué photo’s. A few days later my friend told me there was this transguy who was blogging about loving my photos, so I popped over and read what he had to say and was deeply flattered. That was a beginning that I wasn’t expecting (Ryan says he knew all along). We started with commenting on each others blogs and then those lead to emails. We became close friends and Ryan was there when no one else was. Through the internet and phone I watch Ryan become more of the man he is today and he watch my constant struggles trying to live on my own in San Francisco. After three and a half years of emails and what became daily phone calls I decided it was time to take the plunge. Bush was till in office, I was fed up with everything and Ryan loved me and I loved him, I packed all my possessions into two suitcases(one of which Ryan can report was nearly full of yarn) and a two medium sized boxes and I left America without looking back. On October 15th, our wedding day, it will be two years since I stepped off that plane and I am incredibly happy that in little over three weeks I will become his wife and he my husband.

I should state that that I’m lucky because while Ryan has been able to legally change his gender to male, transwomen have it harder when it comes to legal gender change thus I’m still legally male, but we are able to express our love and commitment to each other legally. My heart goes out to those everywhere that cannot.

People have asked if they can donate to help my wedding costs, yes they can through paypal (any excess funds will be donated to Marriage Equality We would like to provide Marriage Equality a rather nice donation(in my head I’m hoping for 5,000)
