How it all began...

ironrailingsThe best introduction you're ever going to get to me is that I think too much. Over the past year, emerging (if slowly) from the fog of post traumatic stress, and getting my hands on some chance information which illuminated a lot about myself I hadn't been able to describe, all kinds of connections started springing up in my thoughts, and slightly nervously I'm starting to try and get them written down and ordered.
This isn't a personal journal, isn't a space to detail my day to day life, isn't just for writing about me, but my own experiences are very much the starting point. Being a dyspraxic, queergirl with ptsd and synaesthesia who... erm... likes the internet is very far from the sum total of my existence (okay, so the internet part is more than 50%, but y'know) but it is those aspects I want to explore in more depth. Things like what it means for many of what are considered to be the defining features of both femininity and masculinity to be impossible for me or how the trigger-response of ptsd is and isn't similar to that of synaesthesia.
I'll be trying to post reasonably frequently, but I don't quite know how this will take shape - hopefully I'll have some fun playing with it...
