seven and a half hours until my name change hearing... and i'm getting a little antsy...

and
as a random side note, does anyone here who has changed their name know
what to do if you are given a check in your old name? like, can you
still deposit it? hmmmm.... i was just thinking about this, because i
can see situations in my life where someone might use my old name on a
check.

here's the situation... i've been full-time for a while now and i know i'm never going back, but i also don't want to wait until next spring to have srs. i'd much rather have it this coming winter.

i guess what i'm asking is have any of ya'll gotten around the harry benjamin standards of care and had your surgery ahead of schedule? if so, how?
