Well, the long, long "vacation" (and I mean those quotation marks very sardonically) is about over. I've spent just about all my money and now I need to get a job.
It's at times like these when a certain denial-paralysis can set in. At least, they have in the past. And this time... I'm starting to suspect it's happening again. I can tell by the amount of Freecell I've been playing lately. It gets me into this comfortably numb state of mind, where all my worries float away...
(sing to the tune of "Pinball Wizard)
Ever since I was a young boy
I've played computer games
Soiltaire, Minesweeper,
And Tetris were their names
But I ain't seen nothing like it
Now listen, and I'll tell
I'm deaf, dumb and mindless
When I play Freecell.
I sit there like a yoda,
Eyes glued to the screen
Spades clubs hearts and diamonds
I move those cards so mean
Should be in an institution
Stay there 'til I get well
I'm deaf, dumb and mindless
When I play Freecell.
I'm a Freecell wizard
There's got to be a twist
A Freecell wizard
With carpal-tunnel wrist.
How does he know which card to move?
(I don't know)
What makes him so good?
I ain't got no distractions
Cards flyin' all pell-mell
A-mousin' and a-clickin'
God I play so well
Always start a new game
After the last king falls
I'm deaf, dumb and mindless
When I play Freecell.

I stick to the generic form of solitaire with an occasional game of golf solitaire. Lately I have been playing UNO a lot before bed and while putting the boy down for a nap. If I could get cribbage on my phone it would be super sweet!! Of course now I have to try freecell.
Greg- I regret to inform you that I totally suck at freecell. Please try not to judge me too harshly. *sigh*
Brilliantly funny
