The arcade has made a game of the checklist. The house in section, the clock, the next four items on a clipboard, eleven dates.
Now. A few notes.
1. Start at item 1. You'll be tempted to start somewhere more interesting. Item 1 is the interesting one.
2. Group the rooms. The basement is a long way down, and the list goes there often. That is also true of the real one.
3. Item 100 is tea. Take it.
4. If you're not ready when the date moves, that's alright. The date moves. That is what it does.
I was ready nine times out of eleven. I'm told that's a respectable score. I'm told a lot of things.
