[ WP ] After brushing your teeth in the morning you go downstairs to fry an egg , but when you try the frying pan buzzes at you and text appears reading , `` level 18 cooking required to use object '' .

I stared blankly at the frying pan and the uncooked egg sitting in it. The pan was a slightly faded out color... much more faded than yesterday. It was a Monday. It was early. I had work. And I was confused. And hungry. 
 
 I looked around the kitchen. I first went to the fridge, but when I opened it, I was n't greeted with 3 shelves full of fresh groceries that I'd gotten. Instead, a simple menu appeared in front of me, displaying three options; all of which were followed by a number in parentheses 
 
 Cereal ( lvl 1 ) 
 Toast ( lvl 2 ) 
 Frozen waffles. ( lvl 4 ) 
 
 At that point, my intrigue to learn more about just what the hell happened between last night and this morning took over my desire to eat. I closed the fridge and looked around some more. 
 
 Around the kitchen, everything looked seemingly normal. Nothing was that out of place, really. And other than the wierd fridge and egg encounter, nothing else seemed to be happening that was out of the ordinary. It was like I knew something was off, but I could n't put my finger on it. Worse yet, I had this extremely eerie feeling that for whatever reason, I was being watched. I just tried to go on with my day as if everything was normal. But when I got upstairs, things got weirder. 
 
 I opened my closet to get my outfit together, but when I did, I was greeted by an empty space where my clothes used to be. I stared at it with a profound confusion. Where were all of my clothes? Was I robbed last night? Was this a dream? What was going on? Just then, a menu popped up in front of me, startling me and causing me to jump back and slam the closet door shut. I looked down at my hands, shaking from the fear that was now starting to overcome me. It felt like I was still dreaming, so I ran to my bathroom to throw some water on my face, but what I saw scared me even more. 
 
 I turned on the faucet and threw cold water in my face. I wiped the excess water from my eyes, and patted my skin with a towel. But when I looked up at the mirror, I was startled to see my reflection. A green diamond like shape was hovering above me. My expression was blank. I was officially weirded out. How long had that been there? What did it even mean? How was it even just hovering there? I tried to reach up to touch the green diamond, but it was just out of reach. When I tried jumping, it did the same. It had a fixed position right above my head, and no matter what I did - shaking, running, bobbing my head - it stayed right in that fixed position. Then that feeling that I'd had earlier came back stronger than ever. I really felt like someone was watching me. And now it felt like while I was walking around my house, it struck me that I did n't feel like I was making decisions - how do I put this -....consciously? Consciously. Amidst all the confusion I had been experiencing all morning, I heard a car horn. I chalked it up to a random occurrence at first. Then I heard it again. I looked outside to see a car sitting right in front of my house. A message hovered over it. 
 
 `` Your carpool is here! Do n't be late to work!'' 
 
 I've never been apart of a car pool. But by the time I concluded this, I was dressed and heading out the door. It felt like I was slowly losing control of my body.
