W.T.I.I.? (What Time Is It?)
The abnormal combination of retirement, black-out curtains, tinted window shades, and advanced age gave birth to the W.T.I.I. Syndrome! You know you are afflicted with this dread disease when you wake up at all times of day or night, and ask out loud, “What time is it?”
For me, it started about four years ago when my
wife, (CMB), and I moved into our pseudo-affordable, senior get-away apartment, on the shady side
of Las Vegas. We moved from Sunny San Diego so we could afford to buy a loaf of
bread, and still pay our rent! Vegas living, (although considered our last
resort for retirement living), has been economically consistent, and very good
to us. However, the summertime “sun-sations” blast a laser-intensive hole in
your cool zones and your cooling bill! Thus the shaded window screens
and black-out curtains! Our apartment is so dark that the photo-sensitive
nightlights never go off! (Not even in the middle of the day!), “Just the way
we like it!”
Technology solves a myriad of social, economic,
medical, and practical issues. CMB and I are very tech-savvy old geezers, who
build our own gaming computers, simplify our diet with every “Gadget Lady” kitchen
appliance you can think of, and monitor our health with a bank of vital-tracking equipment to report our health stats to our doctors during video-conference
appointments via the internet. So, naturally, we resorted to technology to cure
W.T.I.I.! This wonderful, time-keeping device blasts the T.O.D., (time of day),
directly onto the wall or ceiling, (your choice), 24/7! Being an ex-military
vet, I prefer the 24-hour clock mode, which unmistakably informs me whether the
time indicated is a.m. or p.m., at a glance!
I am no longer a Sales Manager or SEO Tech Developer, so it is not my intention to market this wonderful device for a profit, however, I will imply that a certain online giant that starts with an "A" and ends with an "N" just happens to sell this miracle cure for W.T.I.I.! So, suffer no more! Wake up whenever you like, secure in the knowledge that you will always have a firm grasp on the T.O.D. and your sanity! Now that is a wonderful combination!
