  Memory is such a strange thing. I don’t remember many things from that time, but what I do is as if it happened yesterday. I can feel the crooked wooden floorboards under my bony pajama-clad bottom, and the NES controller in my hands with its creaky plastic buttons, and the warmth of the summer afternoon sun, and the vibration of my boy soprano voice reading the text on the screen. I can smell the static of the Sharp CRT television, and my dad’s warm chamois shirt with (I now realise) maybe just a hint of weed on it. And I can hear him standing above me saying “You can read?”
