You are HENRY. You're standing in the LIVING ROOM of your HUMBLE ABODE. There are THREE DOORS leading OUTSIDE, to a KITCHEN, and to a HALL in no particular ORDER. In the ROOM is a COFFEE TABLE, a THREE SEATED BEIGE COUCH, an HDTV, a PERSIAN RUG, a PS 3, a WII, a FIREPLACE, and DECOR such as PICTURES and POTTED PLANTS. You look at your WATCH and realize you're LATE for WORK! NOT AGAIN YOU HATE WORK!!!!

>Get dressed, with NOVELTY CLOCKPEICE TIE as the PEIS DE RESISTANCE!

Going through the HALL, you walk downstairs to the BASEMENT, AKA your COLLECTOR'S ROOM. Every WALL and SURFACE is covered with TIMEPIECES. There's ANALOG CLOCKS and DIGITAL CLOCKS. CUCKOO CLOCKS and GRANDFATHER CLOCKS and MIXTURES of the two.

You find the spot where you keep your CLOCK ATTIRE and snatch your CLOCKPIECE TIE. It has images of CLOCKS in BROWN against a BLACK BACKGROUND, and a REAL CLOCK at the bottom. While putting it on, you notice it's 7:20. Wait, 7:20? OMG 10 MINUTES UNTIL WORK STARTS YOU NEED TO GET THERE NOW!

>Run OUTSIDE in present state of dress. No time to risk being any more late.

Too late. But anyways, you sprint UPSTAIRS and out the DOOR, where you can see your WIFE tending to the GARDEN, but only WORK is important NOW.

>Hijack BUS with FAMILY PHOTOS.

Luckily, a BUS stops nearby. You jump on, throwing your PHOTOS at the BUS DRIVER. This only amounts to you getting thrown off and then you get your ANKLE sprained. OUCH! That smarts.

You don't need no FLASHBACK! You have ERRANT'S JOURNAL he never wrote in yet he did write in it! You limp back INSIDE and grab it from your BEDROOM.

Dear JOURNAL,

I still have no IDEA why I write certain THINGS in CAPITAL LETTERS. Anyways, NOCK killed GRETCHEN and I made GERTRUDE a WEREHORSE. Now we're heading to YUMI and THERE I hope I'll learn more MACIGKE.

Sincerely, ERRANT

There's a NOTE here by NOCK too.

Hey ERRANT, it's MAGIC!

You limp to the HOUSE owned by your FRIEND, BIG D. Of course, his real NAME is DDDDINYM. Yeah, his PARENTS were DRUNK when they named him. That NAME even sounds like a GIRL'S NAME!

So you ask BIG D for a BOTTLE'O'PAINKILLER for your SPRAINED ANKLE. HE asks for $15. You hand him the MONEY and he gives you the PAINKILLERS. You immediately take ONE PILL. Without WATER, even! The PAIN starts to DIE. But what will you do about WORK?

>HAIL CAB

There are no TAXIS in the SUBURBS. Your WIFE suggests you drive the PERFECTLY GOOD CAR parked in your GARAGE.

> Somewhere within Henery's clock collection: A strange CLOCK starts running backwards

Many CLOCKS of HENRY'S COLLECTION go COUNTER CLOCKWISE, but right now an ANALOG CLOCK starts ticking BACKWARDS THROUGH TIME. However, if a CLOCK goes BACKWARDS in the middle of a CLOCK COLLECTION and NO ONE is around to see it, does anyone care? No. Not until SOMEONE'S around to care.

You do get in your PERFECTLY GOOD CAR. And then you start driving to WORK.

>Experience strange thoughts about days past. Try to IGNORE.

As you drive, you think about MOONWALKING across the ENTIRE CITY a few WEEKS ago. For some ODD REASON, you pass these MEMORIES as STRANGE. But now you're already at WORK. It's the only SKYSCRAPER in a FIELD of TWO AND ONE STORY BUILDINGS. In RED LETTERS, it says "AWESOMELAND OFFICES." Your ANKLE starts hurting again.

No! AWESOMELAND OFFICES is a GREAT NAME! It shows how AWESOME the LAND in which the OFFICES reside in is! But you do walk in.

> COUNTERCLOCKWISE CLOCK: Be part of a TIME CORRIDOR

You already are! The BASEMENT is a CORRIDOR and there is lots of TIMEPIECES within it! The DOOR don't lead ANYWHERE IMPORTANT.

> HENRY: Do some WORK

You go through the LOBBY, saying hi to LAUREN at the DESK. You go UP the ELEVATOR to the 11TH FLOOR. ROW 3, COLUMN 7 is where your CUBICLE is located. You sit down and GRAPH some GRAPHS.

>HENRY sees BOB from ACCOUNTING. Thoughts of rage stir.

You look down the CORRIDOR. Not THAT CORRIDOR, that's back at HOME. You see BOB FROM ACCOUNTING. That's his FULL NAME. He always tries to stab you with a PIZZA CUTTER. He's also one of those LUNATICS that believe EVERYONE has a COLOR assigned to them. He's PURPLE, and IF HE'S TRUE (Which he ISN'T), you're TURQUOISE. You believe that everyone has a TIME. Yours is 7:04 PM.

BOB tells you you're LATE, then goes for the EYES. QUICK! WHAT DO YOU DO?
