Thoughts on Mother's Day

Posted by Percy, 12 May 2013 -

· 68 views

My mom was 21 years old when she had me, her oldest. In many ways, I look back on my childhood and think I had a pretty regular, middle class upbringing. Sure, we were a family with a religion outside the mainstream and we moved around quite a bit when I was young, but nothing else set us apart from the other families on the block.

The more I reflect,...

Road Tripping 2

Posted by Percy, 29 April 2013 -

· 106 views

I’ve driven across the United States six times, thrice between Denver and Boston, twice from Denver to Tampa Bay and once from Boston to San Francisco. I’ve also driven Boston to Tampa Bay a few times and once returned from Tampa and headed all the way north to Prince Edward Island. The last long road trip was the Boston to San Francisco route in 2001. Al...

a dream with impact

Posted by Percy, in dreams 01 March 2013 -

· 128 views

Every once in a while, I'll dream something that I don't want to forget. This one was odd, as all dreams are, but emotionally vivid for me with very sharp visuals.

In the dream my partner and I are on a cycling tour of the British Isles. We’re spending a number of weeks in the north part of England where I’ve gotten to meet a friend I’d been correspond...

Puff

My partner and I spent last week in Key West. If you like lazy days, galleries with painted driftwood and water sports, you can’t do better than the Florida keys. We took a day to go snorkeling and though I’ve been several times before, this is the first time I wore a snorkeling vest.The vest is lightweight, thin and only becomes a flotation device if...

Jacks Knaves

Strange dream last night. It was in two parts. I’m not altogether sure whether I dreamed the first part on Friday night and the second last night or if the two parts both happened last night but were interrupted by a period of wakefulness. I wanted to capture it in writing early this morning but haven’t had a chance to put it into print until tonight....

For Better or Worse

Posted by Percy, 02 October 2012 -

· 257 views

This is a long and rambling self-indulgent post. I needed to clear my head before the weekend and this seemed a good place to air it out. Lots of half-formed and inconclusive thoughts in an essentially boring post...

My partner and I are traveling up to his sister’s wedding this weekend. He use to always, before we met up with anyone in his family,...

Walking

Posted by Percy, 03 September 2012 -

· 308 views

Yesterday my partner and I were tossing around some ideas for a birthday present for his mom.

“She got herself a treadmill recently,” he told me. “ I was thinking something from REI. Athletic wear.”

“That sounds good. She likes to walk. REI would have some good outerwear too.”

“Yeah, she’s not as comfortable walking outside anymore. ...

Before and After

Posted by Percy, in Transition 15 August 2012 -

· 324 views

Odd as it may seem, my transition doesn’t serve as a reference point for much in my life. The perspective from within, my internal dialogue, rarely follows the arc of “Back when you were living as a girl…now that you’re living as a guy.” This is largely because my internal dialogue didn’t change that much. The Me, the Self, the Identity, that...

small town or big city

Posted by Percy, 24 July 2012 -

· 362 views

Big cities have a lot to offer. I've lived in, or near, a large city most of my adult life. Sometimes I think it would be nice to live in a small town or at least nice to have lived somewhere long enough that people recognize me. Seems that after 10 years I'm approaching that level of familiarity with some of the local merchants. This...

Tennessee Tree

Posted by Percy, 13 July 2012 -

· 324 views

Trees. There’s a redwood tree just on the edge of our property. It’s massive. Although I’ve seen it nearly daily for years, I never take the view for granted. A few moments watching the branches sway always soothes, no matter how tumultuous the day. Ever present. That’s a tree, symbolically, to me.

The earliest tree I have a distinct memory...
