The last couple of days I have been testing games for mobile phones.
Mmm. Slight exaggeration. Let's start again.
The last couple of days I've been playing games on a mobile phone.
Better...not entirely true, though. Again.
Yesterday and today I have obsessively been playing a couple of games on a mobile phone. I have been testing one game for a game-selling company, as well as playing "snake" until my fingers bled. My arms are still stiff, my thumb is numb and I can't seem to focus properly.
I am not very games-savvy, which is why I was entrusted with this fine job, I suspect. And I have a wildly obsessive personality.
When I smoked, I couldn't just smoke one cigarette and then leave them be. I had to smoke until I couldn't breathe anymore.
When I eat sweets, I can't just eat one piece and then leave the bag alone. It's all or nothing.
I can obsess about a certain type of food (pasta, pork, tomatoes, grapefruit etc.) and eat pretty much only that for a long time. And then I get sick of it and won't touch it for years.
I am a passionate fan of a band for perhaps a week, perhaps two, and then I completely lose interest.
And so, although not really into games, I can spend an entire day in a locked embrace with some sort of technical equipment.
Please help.
