I can be slow at processing emotions, and that can be doubly difficult when those around me are actively experiencing theirs. With the passing of my Grandmother, I’ve been around many highly emotionally charged people but haven’t really felt any of my own. I don’t know if it is just…

Starter and Pick and Pay TV Options Suck
