Beep. “Hey, this is Fred. I’m probably out dodging asteroids or something, so leave your message after the beep.” Beep. “Yo, Fred, it’s me. Pick up, dude!

I just wanted to start writing, but the internet gods were clearly conspiring against me this morning. Here I am, almost 30 minutes later, after Windows decided to throw a tantrum with an update, and the Monarcha Bakery, home of my beloved café tres leches, declared me public enemy number one by blocking my login.…
