I am sick. Later that night as I brushed my teeth, I hardly recognized the backgammon junkie staring back at me, Crest foaming from the mouth. I have not played backgammon since. I was lucky that time. But now I really don't want to stop playing FreeCell.
Every game is believed to be winnable, they say.
Sure, it hasn't been proven, but maybe they just haven't had anyone willing to play 478 consecutive hands before. I could do that. That's a challenge I must accept with pride and urgency. I just have to make sure someone pokes me tonight to go see Squirrel Nut Zippers because I don't want to miss their vintage six-piece show. Then afterward I can come back to the office and fit a few more hundred games in before Friday night's Pee Shy performance.
