a wrinkle in time, my dad read that to me. back in the 80s, see, before we had all this fancy digital such and such. we couldn't just say 'computer, recite this particular story,' and the computer goes 'once upon a time, yadda yadda yadda,' like you kids are spoiled with today. also, we were constantly dodging seagulls all the time. we lived 30 goddam miles inland. that's what it was like, alright? you stinkin punks wouldn't have the first clue.

but yeah, l'engle. she had an IT before stephen king, by the way. want to know more? visit your local library.
