This is a post about a trip. It was a watershed trip for me, for one very simple reason: it was the longest time spent in trans-mode. Ever. As my renaissance has progressed, and I have become increasingly proficient at presenting as the female me, I have hankered to be Lizzy for increasing lengths of time.

Approximate route of my trek |
My daylight experience has been, until now, limited. So, I decided to inch out into the daylit realms with my usual caution and prudence: I set out from my home Somewhere in West Alabama, bound for Somewhere in North Georgia. Trip time: five hours each way. Route: a busy I-20/59 to Birmingham, then I-20 to Atlanta, then the dreaded Georgia 400 (and smaller two-lanes) to my destination.
I was going for a job interview, which was in two parts: dinner with the hiring committee on Friday evening, then interviews with each member the next morning. I was determined to spend as much time as Lizzy as I possibly could.
