Hey Nectar, have you ever noticed how a small narrative tweak can turn a plain morning into a mini adventure? I’ve been tinkering with a few ideas that might just sprinkle a bit of whimsy into everyday moments.

I’m weaving a tiny “door” into every alarm. Every time my phone rings, it’s a portal that yanks me into a story—one morning, the alarm turns into a dragon who’s trying to scare me awake, but I get the dragon’s name wrong, so it turns into a friendly cat who tells me the day’s riddles. Another morning, the alarm is a treasure map that leads me to the kitchen where I find a handwritten note in a bottle: “If you need sunshine, follow the blueberry trail.” I stick these little plots on sticky notes so when I shuffle coffee, the coffee pot is actually a wizard’s cauldron, and every sip is a spell to banish the sleepy fog. It’s like giving my brain a tiny adventure before the real world wakes up.
