# 01 — Mission Alarm

A little more fun before the day begins.

Every morning hands you a mission — smack the mole, flip the diner switch, balance the level, draw the thing. Small, tactile challenges built to get your hands moving before you can crawl back under the covers.

Really need to stay up? A second alarm is already armed. No snooze loop, no nagging notification — just finish the mission.

The same idea runs Focus blocks — beat a quick game to commit to a stretch of work or reading, then the clock takes over. No dashboard, no streaks, no confetti. Just a small ceremony before you get to work.

It's all wrapped in the warm optimism of mid-century electronics — Bakelite radios, dot-matrix numbers, pink neon, switches that look physical. Not imitating the future. Imagining the one someone in 1958 might have dreamed up.

A little nostalgic. A little weird. Deliberately, unapologetically tactile.
