Re-Tuning The Connection
Feeling a sense of almost cinematic triumph, I finally restored normal internet speeds to my home—but with one tiny yet satisfying adjustment: Daniel would get none of it.

Before his grand exit, Daniel couldn’t resist one last pitiful attempt to claw back some control. He slipped a crumpled note into my mailbox, accusing me of “Cyberbullying,” his handwriting jagged with indignation. The irony was so thick it practically dripped off the paper.
