Favorite Technology

-I'm a sucker for Apple's streamlined, layperson-friendly tech. I got my first MacBook in 2007 and have never looked back. -I resisted the pull of ebooks for as long as I could, but there's something about a Kindle Paperwhite that is absolutely irresistible. -A digital alarm clock—preferably one with a light that mimics soft sunlight—is infinitely more ideal than hitting your phone's snooze button each morning. -I could live without my Nintendo Switch, but why would I want to? -The iPod was easily the best invention of the 21st century and I will stand by that until my dying day.
