Plugged In and Juiced Up
The Energy Earpods Story!
I woke up feeling like a zombie — my snooze button got a major workout! Stumbling to the coffee pot, I realized I left it empty last night.
“No fuel, I’m ruined!” I dramaticized.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. I grabbed my Energy Ears off the counter. These little gizmos are like battery packs that recharge you through your ear holes!
I stuck them in and said the magic words:
“Power up, dudes!”
The Ears beeped as they turned on, making my ears tickle. I felt a bit perkier already, enough to drive my ugly mug to work.

But man, Monday mornings are ROUGH. People were crabby, the copy machine was jamming every five seconds, and I got woefully behind on my assignments.
By lunch, I was wiped out from the morning madness. So I cranked the Ears to “High” mode for a bigger jolt.
“Make it a double!” I told them.
Instantly I buzzed with mojo like I just chugged a six pack of Red Bull. I blitzed through tasks in hyperdrive, typing like a maniac and organizing files faster than my computer could handle.
But I burned out too fast! When I took the Ears off for a breather, I conked out cold at my desk, faceplanting onto the keyboard. I could not help it!
“Ease up, Cyn!” my boss chuckled later, seeing the imprints of keys etched onto my forehead. Whoops!
Note to self: take ‘er easy on the Ear juice from now on! Moderation is key with these turbo chargers!
Wouldn’t it be amazing to have some kind of technology that could be connected in your ears and revitalize your day?… like a cellphone charger, but for humans?…
Thanks for reading!
