It's springtime, but Mercury's going retrograde this month--inevitable cosmic misfires, communication breakdowns, small kitchen disasters, exploding external hard-drives, keys breaking off in locks, toothbrushes dropped in the dirty toilet, and those newfangled iPad thingies snapping in half like a hard shell taco.
My unsolicited advice? Just don't let anything stand in the way of you joining us for more monthly fun-time storytelling. Because (1) some things should only happen once but How I Learned is not one of them, and (2) everything will be okay forever.
The How I Learned Series presents:
