Could not...
could...
NOT... !!!!!!
frigging find the keys so far today. Every board was a disaster. The mind was foggy. The fingers were all drunk and unavailable. An utter mess.
The worst playing day in months.
So, went out and tore out a sagging double-hung gate, replumbed/reinforced/reclad the support posts, made a couple of new gates with new hardware, and wondered why this was so unchallenging when...
At least, now we can get the bobcat back and forth.
sigh
Then, this morning the wife informed me one of the toilets had stopped filling . So replaced the fill valve. Most of us are prone to taking modern conveniences like toilets for granted. Until...you don't have one.
Such easy things to do.
But not playing this game.
At least, not today.
Was about to throw the computer against the wall in frustration.
Until this game. Not a high scorer especially, but there's something satisfying and rewarding about gettng green stars when the game's been played 40 times.
It's like being a gambler, losing for days in a row, then hitting a jackpot.
Just one more.
Just one...
Or an alcoholic on the wagon, smelling whiskey.
If this were Wordtwist Anonymous, I would have to confess, "hello, my name is Naboka, and I have an addiction."
It's a good thing there are gates and toilets to fix.
Green stars. Maybe next game...
Just one more.
