We are trying to psyche ourselves up for the probate court hearing tomorrow, and all the related name change business.  We’ve done everything right, and it should be routine, but we can’t help being nervous, based on all the other ‘routine’ business that has been sabotaged for E because of bigotry and ignorance.  So wish us well.  If all goes smoothly, the false old birth identity will be officially retired.  Now if only stupid Ohio would allow the birth certificate to reflect her true ID accordingly, and make life a little easier, but that’s a lot to ask of an unenlightened conservative state.  One step at a time.

Hopefully by tomorrow this time, we’ll have a relieved announcement to make.
