Quick note, and a meme.

[lonetread]

First, a quick addition to something I mentioned in a previous entry: you know that hallmate in GLBTF? She told me when we talked on Wednesday that she has a friend who transitioned (she seems to be having a hard time using male pronouns for him, since she knew him before, and apparently thinks that's an excuse. to her credit, she noticed me visibly wincing during our conversation and switched pretty quick) whom she's willing to put me in contact with. So that's cool.

Oh, and also, Zera and I watched "A Hunting We Will Go" (QL 3x18) earlier tonight. I forgot to ask her what she thought of it, lol, but we tend to have the same taste in TV (or else, I just like everything and force it on everyone else, which amounts to about the same thing, anyway), so hopefully I can convert her.
