so my immediate family and i have a little running joke that i've got the tech-voodoo skills.
somethin' electronic-wise breaks in the house, all i have to do is come and stand vaguely in the same room and said device works again. it's well past the numbers that i could confidently chalk it up as simple coincidence not gonna lie; pretty much happens consistently at least once a week since, oh geez, the mid 2000's? (last time was two nights ago with a third party walkman/ipod clone that wouldn't turn on).
and in the last five years or so particularly, i've always smiled to myself thinking that maybe, just maybe - it's the devices who respond to a kindred soul that's sometimes more machine than human with all the metal, magnets, and such in me.
