I know I’m behind on the blog. Very, very behind.
But I do promise to catch up eventually. Definitely this millennium. As I am fond of saying, being transgendered is not a midlife crisis. It’s not this or a motorcycle. So while I might not be writing about my transgendered life every day, I am living it every day. And now there’s the podcast. So please do bear with me. As Alton Brown says, your patience will be rewarded.
I should also clarify that each blog post is dated with the day the events occurred, not necessarily when I chose to write it. So expect more posts to be added, with dates from the mists of time.
Finally, please do feel free to share this blog (and podcast) with anyone who might be interested, and don’t be shy about leaving a comment here and there. Or, screw it, just email me at dig@typingmonkeys.com. I’d love hear from you!
