Earlier this week, my drain stopped draining.

It feels as though it’s all coming apart at the seams.

Like the seams of my shoes, which I had to stop wearing as I wore through the soft material in such a way that my heel was hurt every time I moved.

Later the cable light on the the cable modem flashed silently to indicate the internet wasn’t accessible.

And it was exactly then that I had a breakthrough on Wii Sports Resort Swordplay Showdown in the Waterfall level.
