Yesterday, I was hunted down at Danielle's birthday scavenger hunt.
In the morning, at the crack of 11:15, I got my life together and hustled downtown to meet up with 3/4 of the book club. Danielle's oldest friend Jess had planned a city-wide scavenger hunt as a birthday surprise. At first I thought it was a normal scavenger hunt where everybody hunted around the city for clues laid by some professional party planner.
No, this was not that.
We were not to be the hunters... but the hunted.
Yeah, so Jess told the lot of us that we needed to come up with a location for Danielle to find us at, and then a clue to get her there. She said the clue didn't have to rhyme.
I immediately hooked up with the rest of the bookclub and suggested we work as a team because this felt like a series of tasks requiring skills I do not possess.
We broke down the labor as follows:
Audrey put our clue on this adorable card:
Can you even imagine a cuter clue? |
Casey set up the location. She had cupcakes and candles and a trail of cute poofy flowers leading Danielle over to the exact location (in the library where we were holed up, because what better place to find the rest of your book club than in a library!!)
As for me? My part was to copywrite the clue. Did I do a good job? The more appropriate question is, did ChatGPT do a good job because yeah. I did the thing where you get ChatGPT to accomplish your portion of the assignment.
However, I did have to run a series of like 7-10 prompts, so it was only slightly reprehensible.
Also, I played a major role the day before in pretending to have no idea what was going on when the book club text string circled up on what Danielle might be doing for her birthday and she said her friend Jess told her a surprise was planned that would last from 10:30 - 5pm:
I told her to have a hydration plan. I'm so stealthy, nothing to see here. |
