I'm at home waiting for Lucy & Susannah to come back. I find a sparkler and light it up. It burns up fast and I have to drop it before it burns my hand. As it sparkles, little silver flakes fall all over the floor. I start sweeping it up. As I sweep through the house, I find lots of rings under various tables. I pick them up, noting that some of them have been missing for some time. I hear Susannah coming up the stairs and go to greet her. She says, "I thought you'd be playing a video game."
