Soccer
It is absolutely amazing. I have always hated soccer. And since I have been living as a woman, I have taken even more distance fro this game. Many of my colleagues feel the way. We must be one of the very few companies where soccer is not one of the topics of discussion during the [...]
Bus stop
Julia had taken me to work by car, so I had to return home by bus. From a long way away I could hear I wouldn’t be alone at the bus stop. There was a guy with a skate board there and he was obviously bored. I knew he was going to bother me. So [...]
Fade to grey
How can it be, that the Dutch comedian Freek de Jonge puts a new, fascinating show on stage every week, while I am not even able to produce a diary entry in that time?
Pawn
If people feel they are being manipulated and abused, they often say they feel like a pawn in a game of Chess. But still a pawn doesn’t have such a miserable life! Take a close look at it: Pawns can only move one way: Forward! And after five or six steps forward they reach the [...]
A blog as a therapy

Boring
Like every month (see also August, July, June, May and April) we went to the T&T; evening again, but this month I was not as enthusiastic as usual. It hasn’t been very busy on these evenings the past couple of months. This probably has to do with the holidays, but those should be over by [...]
Sold!
Today we have finally sold the house where I have lived for two years all by myself. This is the house where my transition from living as a man to living as a woman took place. It was my intention to start living as a woman there from day one, but that didn’t turn out [...]
