1. Happy Birthday! I'll be there no matter when you have your pah-tay, modulo parental commitments.
2. Changing one's name does feel very, very good for people with non-standard gender identities. If you were wincing, it was past time. I'm glad to see it.

Do you happen to have a checklist for what order you changed name things in, and what kind of who-needs-what was involved? I want to make sure that, for example, I don't bother with the credit card people until I have appropriate state documentation.

*Exactly* what I was hoping for. Thanks!
