text: > Look around
  While your living room isn't much to look at, you call it home. Back when you were working 80 hours a week, you had no time to fix the place up. Now that you have all the time in the world, you have no money. Even in hard times, you retain your sense of irony. Your ratty couch sits along one wall, facing your cheap (and empty) entertainment center. The front door of your home is to the NORTH. Your dining room lies WEST, and your bedroom is to the SOUTH.
  
  Your front door is closed, which prevents people outside from coming in, and vice versa (it's called physics).
  
  You can also see a couch, an entertainment center and a coffee table here.
  
  > go to the west
  The word "room" is a bit of a misnomer; it's more of a nook, and a sparse one at that. In the middle of the room on top of a rug sits a small table and two chairs. On the wall is a small tack where you hang your house key. Your kitchen is to the SOUTH, and the living room is to the EAST.
  
  You can see a house key, a trash can (which is empty) and a table (on which are a napkin and a pen) here.
  
  > look at the rug
  Despite the fact that it slightly smells of urine, the rug really ties the room together.
  
  > take all from the table
  napkin: Removed.
  pen: Removed.
  
  > look at table
  The table is old and tired. It gets passed around between family members every time someone has a garage sale. It's ugly, but you don't own it because of its style; you own it because it was free.
  
  > examine napkin
  It's an unused Taco Flaco napkin.
  
  > move the rug
  Tug as you might, the carpet will not move. Ever.
  
  > examine the pen
  You bought two, since the thought og buying only one seemed depressing.
  
  It's a generic ink pen with a black cap. You try to keep one or two on the table.
  
  > write on the napkin
  Using the pen, you write "COUPON" across the top of the napkin in bold letters. Below that in smaller letters, you write "10 TACOS FOR A DOLLAR".
  
  > examine the key
  Sometimes you like to pretend this is the key to the city, given to you by the Mayor himself. In reality, it's the key to your front door. You've never met the Mayor.
  
  > look at the can
  It's a trash can. Sorry, not everything in life is exciting. You want to make things more exciting? Put some taco wrappers in here!
  
  > look at the change
  It's about a buck's worth of change -- mostly nickels and pennies, some stickier than others.
  
  > Go south
  The kitchen is small and somewhat dark. Even back when you had electricity, the room wasn't all that impressive. Now, it's essentially useless. All the basics are here (a refrigerator, a stove, a microwave), but without any electricity they aren't of much use. The SOUTH end of the room contains a small pantry. The dining room is to your NORTH.
  
  You can see a coffee mug here.
  
  > Examine mug
  The mug proclaims you are the "World's Greatest Dad", and who are you to argue? To date the only thing you've given birth to is unhealthy living conditions, but should you ever actually procreate, you feel like owning the mug gives you a head start. In the coffee mug department, you're the opposite of a procrastinator. You're like a ... precrastinator.
  
  > About yourself
  You look roughly like an out of work computer programmer ... which, coincidentally, is exactly what you are. Your clothes are baggier than normal, thanks to your mandatory recent "low-food-intake" diet. Years of sitting behind computer keyboards have given you lean fingers and a pot belly, but when push comes to shove, you clean up nice.
  
  > examine the pantry
  It's to the SOUTH.
  
  > get the mug
  Taken.
  
  > go south
  The pantry is like a closet for food. Back when you had some, this is where you kept it.
  
  You can see a candy bar and a bag of Reese's Pieces here.
  
  > take all
  candy bar: Taken.
  bag of Reese's Pieces: Taken.
  
  > Examine candy bar
  It's a Three Muskateers bar. Its fairly misshapen from sitting in your hot pantry, but surely it'll still be delicious. The only reason you haven't eaten it is, you can't remember where it came from.
  
  > examine Reese'S
  You remember buying the Reese's Pieces to hand out for Halloween, but you can't remember which year. Reese's have never been a favorite snack of yours, so there they sit, waiting for next year's trick-or-treaters. Fortunately, candy doesn't have a shelf life. (At least that's what the guy at the dollar store told you while checking out. Come to think of it, perhaps he was being sarcastic.)
  
  > eat Reese'S
  Blech, no thanks. You don't even like them when they're fresh, much less a decade old.
  
  > eat the bar
  Not right now. You know what they say, "Candy is dandy, but tacos are ..." Well I can't remember how it goes, but the point is you're in the mood for tacos, not chocolate. Because you know what they say, "Meat can't be beat, while chocolate is ..." Crud. Rhyming is hard.

  > Go south
  This is where "the magic" happens ... if, by "magic", you mean crying yourself to sleep at night while listening to your stomach growl. To make ends meet a few months ago you pawned your bed frame, but kept the mattress. (You would have pawned the mattress too, but "apparently" it had one stain too many.) In the corner is your closet. Your small bathroom is to the EAST. Your living room is back NORTH.
  
  You can see a mattress here.
  
  > examine mattress
  Your mattress sits on the floor in the corner of your bedroom -- classy, for sure. The mattress has multiple small stains, and covers a larger stain on the carpet beneath. A wrinkled sheet covers the stains.
  
  > examine the stain
  Body fluid, of some type. You often wonder whose ...
  
  > examine sheet
  It's a "holy sheet", har har.
  
  > take the sheet
  I'd leave it here; without electricity, it gets cold at night.
  
  > examine the closet
  It's like a pantry, but for clothes. There's no door blocking your view of your clothes. You didn't pawn it, it just fell off one day and you never put it back on.
  
  > look in closet
  It's full of clothes and shoes and ties and spiders. Nothing you need at the moment.
  
  > look at the spiders
  You don't see any at the moment, thank goodness. Perhaps they're hiding for fear of being eaten by you.
  
  > look at the clothes
  For as broke as you are, your wardrobe doesn't look half bad. Should you land a job, you should have no problem finding something to wear.
  
  > Go east
  You enter the bathroom and, like Elvis, take care of business. When finished you flush, wash and dry your hands (even though nobody was looking -- good job!) and re-enter your bedroom.
  
  > check what you're carrying
  You are carrying:
  a bag of Reese's Pieces
  a candy bar
  a coffee mug
  a coupon
  a house key
  a pen
  a handful of change
  a fish bowl
  a burrito
  a remote control
