number one

As much as I hated being required to get good grades, I sometimes miss the uncomplicated clarity that good grades gave. An A said, "you're doing well." Anything else said, "try harder." It's hard to get that kind of clear message once you're out of school. So when you reach the number one position in your FitBit rankings, it's a sweet little taste of the uncomplicated past, when it was so easy to know where you stood in relationship to the world.
