I was messing around in my mum's room one day, when I found a calculator. I thought it was absolutely incredible, and used it as a makeshift Ouija board for a while. I would ask it something like, "Will I ever get married?" and would just pound the keyboard, until a few numbers showed up, and I would "dechipher" their meaning. It wasn't until like, third grade when I finally figured it out.
