never miss another strange story subscribe and hit the bell sit back and get comfortable I have a few stories to share with you when I met Jeremy he was a mess an endearing mess in truth it was basically a hoarder the mounds of hardcover books where furniture should go in shoeboxes full of photos from family reunion he hadn't especially enjoyed he just couldn't part with things which was sweet in a way when obnoxious as hell whenever we tried moving from one apartment to another and had to spend a full week repacking his ridiculous DVD collection we got older and got married and this tough just kept growing and growing until eventually it became a problem we couldn't ignore anymore we had a baby a beautiful boy named Harrison and the tower so stuff became too stressful for me our home was dangerous and I was scared Jeremy understood he's always been in pathetic and kind just flawed in this one silly way still I admit I was surprised that first day when Harrison and I came back from the park there was a noticeable gap in the corner of the house [Music] where are your CDs I asked digitalized him said Jeremy beaming ear to ear stacks and piles of mountains of old CDs reduced to invisible diner I'll do the books next he said he did and suddenly it felt like our house was twice as big it felt almost empty I never thought to ask about the process frankly I wasn't interested but the results were incredible bit by bit Jeremy pared down our lives reducing the physical with a digital we weren't cramped anymore we were practically Spartan torn down to the bare central and everything captured under blood just a button press away but then one day I came home and there was an odd quiet in the house it took me a moment to realize what was missing honey where's Harrison I'll always remember Jeremy's face then he looked so proud and so serene but he understood something no one else could or ever would rather than respond he held up a tablet I thought he was showing me a video at first it was Harrison on a blanket in a bright room smiling and laughing but I didn't recognize the blanket or the room and Harrison seemed to flicker and stutter and he was buffering pretty great right said Jeremy barely takes up any space this way you would think I would have killed Jeremy then I wanted to I really did but something held me back I guess it was maternal instinct instead we made a deal and honestly it's not so bad down here at least I have my son who smiles and laugh and smile and laughs and cannot be tired and will never grow old a digital baby in a digital room forever watched by a digital mother crying Digital tears and we hardly take up any space at all [Music] you [Music]
