"A Perfect Day for It"

The Bedroom is a room. "The blue skies stretch out in front of you, beckoning you forth until they are cut off by the high dark mountain belching thick black smoke directly ahead. The adrenaline pumps through your body and you can feel your heartbeat in all your limbs as you grip your sword tighter and dig your heels into your powerful steed. As you ride across the fields pursuing the enemy, you begin to hear the music get louder. Quickly you recognize the them to Legend of Zelda. Then you realize you are still in your bed. You can hit your alarm to snooze or wake up."

A desk is here. "Your desk is sitting in the corner of the room with homework waiting to be done. Eh, they'll be time tomorrow for that." On the desk is a book. On the desk is a computer. On the desk is a trophy.

The description of the book is "Your textbook for your Western Civilization class. Definitely not the most exciting class."

The description of the computer is "The gentle hum of the computer that lulls you to sleep every night is still going in the background. On the screen is that article you read last night. Apparently video games are being used to treat ADD now. Well now you have an argument next time your mom accuses your gaming of making you inattentive."

The description of the trophy is "Your big shiny trophy from when you won that statewide Halo tournament. Everyone always told you that video games wouldn't take you anywhere, but look at this. You won a big fat trophy and a bunch of cash just for playing what you enjoy!! That's more than you ever got from playing soccer. That doesn't matter now though, you quickly remember that there is a new game in your den just waiting to be played."

The wall is here. On the wall is a picture.

The description of the picture is "Your high school senior soccer photo. You were definitely in better shape back then, but being fit isn't everything. It can be a lot more fun to sit back and play some games than have your coach make you run until you puke. Speaking of which, there is a new game in your xbox just waiting to be played."

The Kitchen is a room. The Kitchen is south of the Bedroom. "Mmm. Breakfast. Good thing you got up early for this, or you'd be coming down to cold cereal, not the bacon and egg feast before you. 'Thanks, Mom' "

A table is here. "Sizzling bacon, scrambled eggs, and hot coffee await you at the kitchen table." On the table is a plate. On the plate is food.

The description of the plate is "Your mom really outdid herself on this one. She must have some really big chore lined up for today. To the east is the Den"

The food is edible. The description of the food is "Crispy bacon paired with eggs cooked to perfection. Dig in..." 

The Den is east of the Kitchen. "Your Man-Cave. Oh the hours you have spent in this beautiful room. As you walk in, you swear you can see the T. V. start to glow for you before you even turn it on. You gaming chair awaits you with open arms, the mini fridge hums with the promise of sugar and caffeine. Even the sun dims itself behind the clouds as you enter. The whole room, no! The entire universe knows that today is the day you will beat your new game. The stage is set. The adventure begins."

In The Den is an xbox.

The description of the xbox is "As you look lovingly at this beautiful machine, you think back to that fateful Christmas last year when you awoke to this marvel all plugged in and ready to go. It was so stunning."

Front Yard is a room. Front Yard is west of the kitchen. "What a beautiful day."
