The Eyeball of Death

The Eyeball of DEATH!!! That's what I played the other day at work. When it came time to play outside, a little boy named Jack asked if I would play with him, and this was the game. Basically it involved running around in the snow, dodging monsters, scrambling under the playstructure (through the dangerous caves) and searching for the elusive eyeball of death. To the untrained adult eye, the eyeball looks like nothing more than a chunk of snowy ice, but luckily Jack could see its true potential. He fixed the eyeball to his sword and was endowed with special powers. Now we could storm the castle!! More running, dodging and scrambling, up mountains and over rivers of lava. I saved a few kids from firey deaths, but then opted to turn to the dark side and claim the castle for myself. Of course I was no match for Jack, his magical sword and his loyal followers. I was eventually defeated and thrown in jail, shackled to the fence til the end of time (end of recess).

Yep, this is my job. How many of you got paid to play the eyeball of death? Muahahaha!!!

I love it.
