Growing up I vividly remember getting up from watching my show and pushing the button on the TV to turn it off and “freeze” the show until I returned again so I could pick up where I left off.

I would come home and turn the TV back on only to find that my show was not where it left off. I would get pissed and accuse my parents or my big sister of turning it on while I was away.

I was telling someone this story a while back and my mom overheard me. She faintly remembered me getting really pissed when returning to home, turning on the TV and throwing a tantrum, but didn’t know why until now.  I wonder what she actually thought of me back then.
