bonfires and other junk

Last night was pretty fun on the whole. I managed to eat a little bit of fish--the first flesh I've eaten in quite some time--and my friends and I built a fire.
It was interesting because I'm not really sure how my high school friends are viewing me at this point in time. Leanna and I talked briefly about my transition, and she asked me 'what if you become a man and then you realize you want to be a woman?'
I thought about it and I said 'if that happens, I guess I'm just screwed. But it's not going to happen so.'
I think because I waited so long to actually come out to them, they're still processing everything and like...it seems like everything is happening all at once to them, you know? Like they don't really see the whole process I went through, they just see 'hey, I'm gonna be a guy. Oh my name changed. Oh I'm starting T next week.'
So. I guess it's weirder
But last night, Walker's friend Brian came over, who I have not met previously, and he clearly read me as male immediately. Actually, even after Leanna kept calling me Jessica, he continued using male pronouns.
Haha. Fantastic.
I think maybe it was good for my friends to kind of see oh, well, he really does pass as male to people who don't know him. Then again maybe they didn't notice. w/e
um
Supposedly my father is coming to the house today. We'll see how that goes.
