Can you recover from….?
When I was a tween, I used to play a weird game. A nerdy game. I had this calculator. A gray one. And I would hit a few numbers and it would go off and do some odd number churning. My friend and I would play this quite […]
Waking up to a clock alarm: Oh the horror!
During the last two weeks, I have been doing something I have not done my whole life. I have been setting my alarm clock. But more than that, I have been waking up to my alarm clock. I have never done that before. I have always been […]
