Every once in awhile an occasion arises that I feel requires me to re-introduce myself to some people, so that I can introduce myself to a few new readers.
In this case, I sense that introducing myself to my FISA reader is warranted. I’m going to refer to you as Paul. I know that is unlikely to be your name, but I like the name Paul, and it was the name of one of my more subversive friends back in my hippie days. I think that it was likely also not his real name, times being what they were.
This diary can also be viewed as me taking a break from reporting on news stories from the transgender community and being a lot more personal.
So what you will find on the inside was compiled 17 years ago…and contains writings from before that. It also may be viewed as the introduction to the book I may write after I retire. But then, by now I’ve probably written a good half dozen introductions to that non-existent book, so who knows? We’ll have to see if I ever really finish writing my life.
