    It’s true. I teach college kids, and a couple of years ago my class was taking a midterm. The room didn’t have a clock so I put my watch on the document camera display so they’d know how much time was left. A girl in the front row asked me what time it was, because she couldn’t tell time. After she turned in her test, thinking she must be kind of embarrassed about this, I told her I’d be happy to teach her how to tell time. She gave me a look like “ok, boomer” and said no thanks.


















  • I don’t anymore. I have all my boosters, and I live in a rural area where there are rarely crowds anywhere I go. I also have gotten over a lot of the fear I had pre-vaccine. I had covid for the first time in January and honestly I was relieved that it was very mild. Thank you scientists!! And I still have my stockpile of masks in case I ever need to leave the house if I’m sick.
