For Those Keeping Score At Home

For Those Keeping Score At Home
To combat boredom at work I concocted a new game at my station. For starters I pick up spare change out of boredom.. Today I decided to bounce it off of the podium and see where it lands on the keyboard. Depending on where it lands you get various amounts of points. Think of it as a skeeball for your keyboard. I'm even working on a home version. The gray keys were worth 10 points and the blue ones were worth 70, as there are a lot more gray keys than any other. This is what my life has come down to, spending my days counting the number of different colored keys on a keyboard. There are seven orange keys, in case you were interested. I played seventeen rounds of my new game. It became addicting. I almost had to ignore customers that were trying to interrupt my turn, especially during a hot streak. Once you really get the skill down the challenge is to see how far back you can stand and still bounce onto the keyboard accurately. And yeah, if this doesn't sound too exciting, well you're right. Because it only made four hours feel like three.

My mother bought a toaster for my apartment. It looks just like the brave little one. It's delightful.
