i’m back! – and starting TTC again!
Wow, it’s been a long time since I posted. School is taking up so much of my time, it’s hard to find time to clean my house, let alone write on here. But, I am coming back and have very exciting news. I’m set to start TTC again at the end of this month. I am *soo* excited. You may remember that I took a few months off so I will be able to finish the school year before the kiddo is born. Well, I did the math earlier this month and at the end of this month I can finally start trying again. That means next cycle, folks – which should start any day now.
A little update on school, too. Well, things have continued the way they were, but I have found more allies among the other students and a couple of professors. Apparently previous cohorts have also felt there was a lack of inclusion of queer issues and the faculty’s response was, “well, we gave you those two articles to read!” So my friend B and I met once with a prof I really like and gave her a lot of resources. If the faculty as a whole still aren’t open to being more inclusive (and also getting some education! – they have said some pretty offensive things, y’all), then B and I are going to start a club to educate folks in the cohort. So, I’m feeling more hopeful since we now have a plan to address it.

welcome back! I hope you have a great cycle, and that your attempts to educate the masses in your cohort about queer issues are well-met.
