Hey congrats, Vanessa. Happy to support you (or anyone else - its early). From a practical perspective, I would really like to know what genius thought the day before April Fools was a good choice for Transgender Day of Visibility. I had to look it up to make sure it was a real thing. Just sayin' :-) Also, I didn't know you had moved to LA. I'm in San Diego. Would love to get a local user's group going. -Todd Blanchard

Vanessa, We are all looking for good news right now, and your announcement came at the right time. Thanks for clarifying the pronouns, by the way. Here in Sweden we are encouraged to use "hen" (regardless of gender), which is a hybrid pronoun for he/she. English is awkward since referring to a single person as "they" still sounds a bit distant... All the best with this process, and welcome to the world!
