The Greatest Battle Ever!

Today was yet another gruesome battle against my antagonist: the computer. We both fought with ferocity and great power. I would take one swing, he would take another. I would file away ten more pages of paperwork thinking, dreaming, that I was closer to my goal of being finished. But, alas, my foe hurtled order upon order onto my desk when I least expected it. However, I did not retreat and give up just then. No, no, no, I continued to brawl with this fiend. My fingers hacking away at the keyboard until I was sure he had had enough. Then I would stand triumphant above his writhing and broken body, but I was hoodwinked! For my enemy was only acting, waiting for his backup to arrive to his aid. As quick as lightening I was seized upon by my little brother and sister. My brother, the evil and conniving one, had a death grip on my leg while my sister screamed her battle cry. The odds were against me. My three greatest challengers awaited my next move. Oh, but do not worry, for I was always prepared for whatever situation was beset against me. “Cookie!” I yelled, and instantly my brother was at my command. My sister, on the other hand was one not so easily subdued. It took much more of my brain power to convince her to let me free. In one fowl swoop I made up a bottle of milk and was off to rocking her to sleep in my arms. During this time, however, I had left my back turned to my third adversary, and he did not show mercy in any way during that time. Well, there lay another stack of paperwork again, and history repeats itself time and time again.
