My sister-in-law, Mandy, was the first to arrive, just after two o'clock. "Eric, you look so much like a girl!" She exclaimed in awe.
"That's what I'm going to tell everyone today. You're the first one in the family to find out that I'm going through a sex change."
"You mean you are going to become a woman?"
"I am," I informed Mandy before asking her to answer the door for me. I wanted this to be a surprise for my family.
Everyone was in the living room by two-thirty. After putting the final touches on my makeup, I walked into the living room to give them the news.
