You know the drill. You start something new. Or you get thrown into a situation you thought you would never be in. You don’t even know what to Google or what hashtag to search. You click on ONE THING!!! And it takes you down rabbit hole after rabbit hole... Before you know it, it’s 1 AM, and you’ve given yourself carpal tunnel and a migraine with nothing to show for it. Yeah, been there, done that, and impulse bought 5 statement t-shirts... I mean, sure, they’re good shirts and all, but still...
