Male Bonding?

Jude accompanied me earlier today to grab a charger kit for my scooter at a local bike shop. When I asked the employee if they carried scooter battery chargers, he told me that they didn't - but that a nearby business just up the street did.

He provided me directions, starting with asking me if I knew there the strip club was. A landmark that he assumed I would know of. I did.

Was this a "male bonding" moment? I'm not sure. But according to Jude who was standing quietly near me, it was. And ze theorized that if ze had asked the same question, the employee wouldn't have used the same landmark.

Either way, it was definitely a first.

Known to them as a man, Metzler wore mascara, eyeliner and white-tipped acrylic nails to a company barbecue.

Viddy Documentation: 39 Days

If blogging is out of my element, photo documentation is even further out in the element ball park. What's on an another planet altogether is video documentation. Still, here's the thang. My voice just started cracking a couple of weeks ago and I want to catch it while it's high pitch central and to be able to look back on that change later down the road. Since the thickening of my vocal chords will be very gradual, I'm going to record my voice every so often to document that change. Here goes!
