The Below
The whistle of the tea kettle brought us all crashing back to reality. The weight of the news that had just broken over the static on the old and only radio we owned was something we had all been dreading. The world had been in a freefall for years, but there had always been a glimmer of hope. The idea that maybe, just maybe we would be able to land on our feet.

Lots of thumbs up. I have always wanted to travel in time, in other directions besides the straight ahead direction most of us are used to, but I found traveling in the accepted direction has bored out of my skull. After getting fired from my minimum wage dead-end job, my mom told me I should give community college another try. My first time around was not a pleasant experience. I found I ...
