boo!

hey there!

i'm, like, new here. no, princess ozma is not my real name. i don't even own a tiara. for god's sakes, i'm working class! but i am a happy, cute, wide-hipped and curly-haired girl who so happens to be transsexual. i also so happen to be a college student, i so happen to like cheese, and i so happen to be fairly stealth at school, which is why we won't talk about where i go to my school or my real name like ever.

i'm silly and innocent, but i'm not stupid. i'm lacking in wisdom, mostly in my youth, but not in intellect. i'm not the coolest person on this earth, i'm not the prettiest girl in the bunch, i'm not the smartest student here. but i'm the best, shiniest, brightest me i can be.

likes: cheese! punk rawk. getting out of new jersey as much as humanly possible. my wonderful mommy, though i take great pity on her as she's eight months and change preggers. cute babydykes. gloss: every thursday night at meow mix! people who are not narrow of mind...in any direction. people who don't expect one's body to be narrow. the new pink album. going to the diner at 3am. the hitachi magic wand. knowing how to "hover". my sibs, and the forthcoming sib, whenever she decides to bust out. being able to cook as economic self-suffficiency, not as rote social role. knowing that people are basically good. smashing patriarchy. guinness. bell hooks. sara ryan. charlotte bronte. frozen dinners that are healthy and organic! oh, yeah, and how can i forget that beth from the gossip signed my 430 notebook.

dislikes: fatphobia. sexism. patriarchy. non-constructive whining. unreasoned prejudice. that willow and tara broke up. (*snif*) phony people. rapists. people who aren't basically good. racism. thongs. double standards. the glass ceiling. that the ERA failed. the social constant of failure-tracking for disadvantaged women. the self-obsessed. that julia stiles still hasn't shown up in my room screaming "take me!". the fact that sometimes the nasty people do get to me. and people who think i HAVE to be anything because i'm a chick, because i'm lower-class, because i'm transwhatevered, because i'm a dyke, because whatever. jealousy. bitterness. UTIs. oh, and i really hate the yankees. (i love new york, but i still hate the yankees!)

so. after all that, if you're not completely terrified of me, hello there. where's the coffeemaker again?
