Prologue
Greetings, intrepid readers. I am a keychain, and this is the story of my life… Yes, I know I am an inanimate object, but believe me, I have a life!
My first memorable experience was that of zooming down a production line and getting shunted into the back of one of my millions of siblings. We were packed into a dark box like souvenir sardines, and, in there, on the shelf of a dirty factory, we stood motionless for a month.
It was then that I began to keep a diary, just to pass the time. Today, I want to share with you some of the highs and lows of my keychain of events!
Dear Diary,
Finally, moving day! And, at last, a glimpse of sunlight through a gap in the tape around our box.
“Where are we going?” I wonder. Have we been marked “FRAGILE” cargo? … Ouch! I guess not.
Soon, a fluorescent glare floods in. It’s coming from the stark, humming fluorescent tubes on the ceiling, and an impatient, small, sweaty guy is manhandling us onto a rotating display.
This is scary. I’m glad my identical siblings are here.
Dear Diary,
I am bored and lonely now. I watched everyone else as they were admired and sold. Some to excitable children who were here on a big school trip. Some to a motel that wanted one for every key.
I wonder if, perhaps, I have a defect. Maybe there is something wrong with me…
Oh, shhh! Someone is coming over (my fingers would be crossed if I had any).
Dear Diary,
Just a quick note today. Li, my new owner, is LOVELY. She has made all the waiting worthwhile.
At the moment, I am proudly dangling from the zip on the front of her bag. Perhaps I’m not defective after all.
Li has a very full calendar on her bedroom wall, and it looks like we have lots of fun adventures to look forward to!
