May as well just drop 'em for now. >drop pjs (first taking the pajamas off) You toss your annoying pajamas onto the floor.

So you're going to have to find the remote if you want to watch TV. >get up You start to get up but your head throbs and you get very dizzy.

You should really clean that up at some point.... >clean dust You'll have to get off the sofa first. >u (first getting off the sofa) Thankfully the pain in your head has lessened enough for you to stand now. You get off the sofa. You begin to tread upstairs but quickly reconsider. If you go up now, you'll most likely get distracted and never come down! You can always shout up to Alex if you're desperate. All you need to do at the moment is take a walk around the neighborhood - should be an easy enough task! Okay, Sam, the hard part's over. Now to get dressed... >clean dust You wipe away the dust to reveal an old sweatshirt. >x sweatshirt Just an old sweatshirt Alex grew out of. You love stealing their clothes. In the old sweatshirt is a key ring. >* whew That's not a verb I recognise. >wear sweatshirt (first taking the old sweatshirt) Taken. As you pick up the sweatshirt, you hear a jingling. You check over the garment and in the pocket you find your key ring, which you take. You put on the old sweatshirt. >x ring The key ring currently holds a backdoor key, although it usually also holds a car key, a house key, a work key and a bike key. Unfortunately, this is a common occurence. Your key ring doesn't quite make a full loop, so if you're not careful with them (as happens from time to time, especially when you're drinking or out with friends), they fall off without you realizing it. >put bike key on ring You put the bike key on the key ring. >i You are carrying: a key ring a bike key a backdoor key an old sweatshirt (being worn) an old magazine >x backdoor You see nothing special about the backdoor key. >l Living Room The Living Room is standard-issue, complete with television, sofa, floor lamp, coffee table, side table, window, ceiling fan, rug, hardwood floor, and other such creature comforts.

Maybe it's loose? >open it You pull up the creaky floorboard and make quite a discovery - a small toy airplane! The previous owners of this house must have had a child who hid toys in this spot. Seems they forgot to clear one out, though. You take it, and pop the creaky floorboard back into place. >x plane It looks to be a standard toy airplane, nothing much special about it. You expect it would be a lot more entertaining to you if you were younger. >l Living Room The Living Room is standard-issue, complete with television, sofa, floor lamp, coffee table, side table, window, ceiling fan, rug, hardwood floor, and other such creature comforts.

Ah that's right... you've been trying to fix the front door's squeaky hinges for a month now, but no amount of oil seems to work. Now what were you doing again? Ah, that's right, going west... (first opening the front door) But wait... you haven't got everything you need yet! In order to go on a walk like a normal person, you'll need suitable clothes, a filled and usable wallet, a complete set of keys, a working cell phone, and your mask. Better hop to it! >x toolbox Just a standard-issue red workman's toolbox. The box is currently closed. >open it You open the red toolbox, revealing a workman's pencil, a mask, a can of grease, a paper clip, a screwdriver and some spare AAA batteries. >take pencil Taken. >x mask It's a K-N95, the best you could get your hands on.

You can also see a red toolbox (in which are a screwdriver and some spare AAA batteries) here. >x screwdriver Just a small red screwdriver, perfect for working on tiny hinge screws and the like. >take it Taken. As you take the screwdriver, something seems to shift within the metal lining of the red toolbox and your work key drops into its interior, seemingly out of nowhere! You pick it up. >take work key You already have that. >put it on ring You put the work key on the key ring. >x it You see nothing special about the work key. >x aaa You see nothing special about the spare AAA batteries. >take batteries Taken. >l Living Room The Living Room is standard-issue, complete with television, sofa, floor lamp, coffee table, side table, window, ceiling fan, rug, hardwood floor, and other such creature comforts.

As an hour ticks by, Alex eventually comes downstairs, arms crossed. "I thought you were going to take a walk today!" You grin at them sheepishly. "Another lazy, relaxing day in the house with you isn't the worst thing in the world, is it?" You see Alex's eyes soften and they kiss you gently on the head. "I suppose that's true. But tomorrow, you should REALLY go on a walk. It's for your health, you know!" *** You Fail to Go on a Walk, but Take A Leisurely Afternoon Off Instead. *** Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game, QUIT or UNDO the last command? > undo Living Room [Previous turn undone.] >* oops!

You can see some pajamas here, resting on top of a particularly creaky floorboard. You can also see a red toolbox (empty) here. >x exit You can't see any such thing. >x door As you turn to look at the front door, your eyes drop to the ever-present red toolbox to the side of it. You've been trying to fix the front door's squeaky hinges for a year now, but no amount of oil seems to work. The door itself is plain white and complete with doorknob and lock. >x hinge You can't see any such thing. >x hinges As you turn to look at the front door, your eyes drop to the ever-present red toolbox to the side of it.

Maybe if you tried screwing in the tops of the hinges a little tighter? You test it out. Still not quite working. Hmm... Hours pass and night falls, and you're still working on the door. Alex comes downstairs and frowns at you. "Sam, you were supposed to go on a walk! You weren't supposed to be working!" "Sorry, I just couldn't get this creaky door out of my mind... hold on... I just..." you kick the bottom of the last hinge into place and open the door again. Perfectly noiseless! You cheer in celebration and Alex applauds. "Well, this is a surprise! I suppose I have to forgive you for not walking now. Maybe we can go for a walk together tomorrow?" You nod to them gratefully and your stomach starts rumbling. "I'm famished! Let's order something to eat," you say. *** You Fail to Go on a Walk But You Succeed in Fixing Your Squeaky Front Door! *** Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game, QUIT or UNDO the last command? > undo Living Room [Previous turn undone.] >* progressish That's not a verb I recognise. >i You are carrying: some spare AAA batteries a screwdriver a paper clip a can of grease a mask (being worn) a workman's pencil a toy airplane a key ring a work key a bike key a backdoor key an old sweatshirt (being worn) an old magazine >unlock door What do you want to unlock the front door with? >backdoor That's unlocked already! >l Living Room The Living Room is standard-issue, complete with television, sofa, floor lamp, coffee table, side table, window, ceiling fan, rug, hardwood floor, and other such creature comforts.

On the sofa is a pair of sweatpants. >look under sofa You look under the sofa and find a messy ball of duct tape, a driver's license, a five-dollar bill, a credit card, and a vaccination card. You take the lot. >wear sweatpants (first taking the pair of sweatpants) Here are your sweatpants! You must have been sleeping on them the whole time. Taken. You put on the pair of sweatpants. Okay! Making good progress. Just make sure you've got your cell phone, keys, wallet, and mask and you'll be strolling along that walking path in no time. >* progress... That's not a verb I recognise. >x tape It appears this messy ball of congealing duct tape is all that remains of what was once your handy-dandy do-it-yourself wallet. Maybe the tape finally got old enough to deteriorate and so its structure just broke apart... or maybe leaving it under the sofa every night just isn't very good for it. Either way, you guess you'll need to make another one now. >* oops That's not a verb I recognise. >make wallet You try to think back to the TV program you watched which taught you how to do that and concentrate on piecing together the messy duct tape.
