Matt McIrvin's Freaky Alternate Reality

It's increasingly clear that Jorie is probably left-handed. For a long time, while she switched hands when using a writing instrument, there was one thing she always did consistently: when she picked up her little guitar, she always wanted to pick with her left hand. (These days I usually keep it tuned to an open D tuning, so she can just strum away on the open strings and it sounds all right.)

The most recent time she did it, though, she actually slung it on in righty fashion, imitating me, and started strumming with her right hand--though her writing is getting more consistently left-handed.
