I am such a dork. Most of you already know this fact but I wanted to make sure I said it. The reason I am a dork is because I was excited to hear that today is Shakespeare's birthday. } more

Why doesn't the ATM want my card?

I was a little alarmed at first and tried to put the card back in but the screen prompted me to input my PIN number instead. I was able to complete my transaction but it threw me out of my comfort zone. read more
