    Jedrnurse replied to vvasq87's topic in School

    Jedrnurse replied to srercg's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    I have it happen, but it's very brief and intermittent. It hits the area on my thigh near where my phone sits in a cargo pocket. Honestly never thought to look into it, just chalked it up to "life can...
