(YES or NO) > y You're a successful computer programmer, enjoying his fifteenth year of marriage to a wonderful woman. You've got a six year old daughter, a great house, and a good life. You've also worked pretty hard to get there. So when you got the opportunity to take a vacation for two weeks, you pounced on it. You announced your plans to your surprised wife two days ago: a secluded lakeshore cabin, away from the hectic rural life you usually lead. In a way, it's your...

Living Room Your living room is spacious and comfortable; a sofa you recall as being terribly expensive is set up along the wall, across from which is the television. Tasteful paintings adorn the area above the sofa, and light streams in through the window. The kitchen is to the west, the hallway to the north, and the eventual goal of your undertaking, the car, is in the garage to the south. Jessica is happily preparing for the trip. >i You have a packing list. >x me You've seen better days. >x list This is a list of everything you have to bring to Jessica before you can get going.

Your mind can't even begin to form the words which would adequately describe her beauty, kindness, and love. She's the most wonderful thing that's ever happened to you. Of course, you are married to her, so you may be a little biased. Jessica notices the attention, and smiles at you. >smile I don't know the word "smile". >kiss jessica I don't know the word "kiss". >hug jessica I don't know the word "hug". >l Living Room Your living room is spacious and comfortable; a sofa you recall as being terribly expensive is set up along the wall, across from which is the television.

The entrance to the attic is above, however the chain you'd normally pull to get the stairs to come down has long since become lost. >x picture A smile comes to your face as you look over your wedding picture. It wasn't a fancy affair, but it's still one of the most memorable things to happen to you. And, so far as you're concerned, one of the best. >u You'll have to figure a way up there, first. >n You can't go that way. >[Dude, the computer room is there.] I don't understand the punctuation "[". >w Master Bedroom A large, comfy bed, your very own bathroom to the north, and a closet to the south.

Jessica enters the room, apparently having been looking for you. "Hon, I can't find my car insurance card." she says. "It's usually in my wallet, but it must have fallen out somewhere." You don't want to drive anywhere without insurance, and it's obvious that Jessica doesn't either. You heroically volunteer to find it for her. Given at least a little relief by your words, Jess heads back toward the living room. >n Bathroom The bathroom is more roomy than you're accustomed to, even though you've had it for years. Curtains similar to the ones in the bedroom adorn the sole window, and a rug is on the floor. You see a medicine cabinet here. >open cabinet Opening the medicine cabinet reveals a Traveling Pharmacy. >get pharmacy Taken. >move rug I don't know the word "rug". >open window I don't know how to open the window. >x window The curtains are in the way >move curtains To this day, you still haven't figured out how to operate those things.

It's covered with fluffy sheets and several large pillows. You feel sleepy and warm just looking at it. >search bed There's nothing on the bed. >look under bed There's nothing under the bed. >enter bed I don't know how to enter the bed. >e Hallway There's not much to the hallway, but it's still pretty nice and well lit, the former being due to a picture framed on the wall, and the latter being due to the light coming in from the Living Room to the south.

The entrance to the attic is above, however the chain you'd normally pull to get the stairs to come down has long since become lost. >e Sapphire looks up at your entrance. You can tell she's upset, but she looks hesitant at your arrival. "Daddy..." she starts. "I know I'm a big girl now, but you're going away, and I'll be with someone else, and I wanted to know... Do you know where beary is?" She seems uncomfortable asking, and you can tell why; Beary was her childhood stuffed companion, which she gave up about a year ago in an effort to be more 'grown up'. You smile at her and tell her that you'll help to find it. She's going to be without her parents for a few weeks, it's the least you can do. Sapphire's Room Sapphire's room is almost a stereotype of a child's room: a toy chest is in the corner, across the room from a small bed. The wallpaper is covered with rainbows, clouds, trees, and various fuzzy animals. There is even a miniature bookcase, containing a wide variety of children's books. Sapphire is idly searching the room, looking frustrated. >x books Jessica's hobby, over the past few years, has been to take random classes at the local community college whenever her work permits. A few years ago, she enrolled in a woodworking course; this bookcase is the result. Varnished, finished, and perfectly square, it's a work of art. Sapphire loved it when she got it, and nowadays she treats it like a prized posession. >x box The Traveling Pharmacy is little more than a box filled with every sort of legal drug imaginable. In addition to the old standbys of NyQuil and Ibuprofen, any painkiller/cough medicine/flu therapy samples you've found in the past ten years have been placed inside it. The box is fairly small, however, which makes it portable and ideal for trips. >x chest The toy chest features a chalkboard, some chalk, and a few shelves to put toys on. It is currently performing none of these duties, however, as that would require some sense of organization and your daughter has inherited her sense of organization directly from you. >search chest You find nothing of interest. >get chest You can't have the toy chest. >look under bed There's nothing under the bed. >x bed Sapphire's bed is that of a child; it's small, for one, and it features sheets and blankets with smiling stars and moons on them. You can tell by the way your daughter looks at it that she feels she's outgrown the 'cute blankets' phase. >l Sapphire's Room Sapphire's room is almost a stereotype of a child's room: a toy chest is in the corner, across the room from a small bed.

Your only hobbies, you realize sheepishly, are on the computer. You see a car here. The car seems to contain a map. > get map Taken. >x car Your car is relatively new, relatively shiny, and relatively roomy. It was the compromise between your desire for a larger vehicle that would accommodate all of you and Jessica's desire for a small maneuverable vehicle she could zoom around the neighborhood with. >[up with which I will not put] I don't understand the punctuation "[". >x list This is a list of everything you have to bring to Jessica before you can get going.

That's how it works!" insurance card: Jessica positively bounces with joy. "Thank you!" she says, throwing her arms around you in gratitude. You make a mental note to find insurance cards more often. [Your score increased by 3 point(s)] Traveling Pharmacy: Your wife accepts the box gravely and nods. "I reassure you, if you should fall ill, I shall do everything within my power to cure you." You knock on some wood, just in case. [Your score increased by 2 point(s)] your bathing suit: Jessica holds the suit up and examines it carefully. She then packs it away with a look indicating she'll try to talk you out of it once again. You blush; you weren't an exhibitionist 15 years ago, and that hasn't changed much. Still, you realize with a grin, you bet she could do it. [Your score increased by 1 point(s)] map: Jessica takes the map and places it on the floor before her, sitting down as she does so. Grabbing a marker, she starts plotting the route. A few moments pass, then she looks up at you sheepishly "Oh yeah... thanks." she smiles.

This is not its natural state, but when one is expecting babysitters, one is usually coerced into clean the room. So one did clean the room, despite not being overly happy about it. One did get a kiss and a well-intentioned 'thank you' for his trouble, though, so perhaps it wasn't all bad. You see a wooden chair and a refrigerator here. Sitting on the table is a camera. >get camera Taken. >[should be 'into cleaning'] I don't understand the punctuation "[". >open fridge Opening the refrigerator reveals a large assortment of drinks. >get drinks Taken. >get chair Taken. >w Living Room Your living room is spacious and comfortable; a sofa you recall as being terribly expensive is set up along the wall, across from which is the television.

"What did you do, take the entire contents of the fridge?". You sheepishly admit that you did, and the long process of somehow transferring the drinks from you to her begins. Jessica carefully sets everything down on the floor. "If you could get that cooler, I'd appreciate it." [Your score increased by 2 point(s)] camera: Jess smiles at you, and feigns taking your picture. She then packs away the camera for the trip.

[Your score increased by 7 point(s)] >u Attic This isn't a room you go into often; before today, the last time you'd been up here was when you first moved in. Boxes from that first move still reside here, among other items. What little light there is in the room is provided by a small window at the far end. You see a cooler and a stuffed animal here. >get cooler Taken. >x animal Beary is your daughter's favorite stuffed animal from years past. He's missing an eye and leaking stuffing, but none of that matters to her; Beary's been with her for as long as she remembers >get it Taken. >x boxes You wouldn't even know where to begin looking through the boxes. If you haven't bothered to open them by now, you reason, it's likely their contents aren't terribly important. >d Hallway There's not much to the hallway, but it's still pretty nice and well lit, the former being due to a picture framed on the wall, and the latter being due to the light coming in from the Living Room to the south.

"You found him!" she says, reaching toward the stuffed bear in your arms. She looks up at you, appearing a little embarassed. "Um... daddy... can I have Beary?" You hand over the stuffed toy readily, and are rewarded with a smile.

It's simply the first bit of furniture that you and Jessica bought when you got married. Its sentimental value far outweighs its moentary value, the latter having been permanently ruined by attempting to raise a child in its vicinity. >l Living Room Your living room is spacious and comfortable; a sofa you recall as being terribly expensive is set up along the wall, across from which is the television.

You glance out the window to see Mrs. Fallow, the person who you arranged to babysit. Jessica gets to the door before you do, and chats with your neighbor for a few moments while Sapphire emerges from the hallway. You pick her up and give her a hug, then hand her to Jessica, who does the same thing. Once free to move about again, she walks over to Mrs. Fallow, and waves at the two of you one last time before being escorted away. Jess looks over at you. "Do you think we're doing the right thing?" "You mean leaving Sapphire?" you reply. "She'll handle it, I think. She was a bit nervous, but I know she was looking forward to it." "Yeah." Jessica agrees. "Now that you mention it, of course, so have I!" You can't help but to indicate to her that you feel the same way. >l Living Room Your living room is spacious and comfortable; a sofa you recall as being terribly expensive is set up along the wall, across from which is the television.

Your computer room is to the north, the room you share with Jessica is to the west, and Sapphire's room is to the east. The stairs leading up to the attic are rather obtrusive in the middle of the hall like they are, but they do provide a way up there. You see a wooden chair here. >u Attic This isn't a room you go into often; before today, the last time you'd been up here was when you first moved in. Boxes from that first move still reside here, among other items. What little light there is in the room is provided by a small window at the far end. >d Hallway There's not much to the hallway, but it's still pretty nice and well lit, the former being due to a picture framed on the wall, and the latter being due to the light coming in from the Living Room to the south.
