My girlfriend is a robot

No really. And I don't mean it in the cutesy, affectionate way like someone who refers to thier loved one as "Chimpy Poo-box". I mean a real robot. She clicks in her sleep. "Clicks?" you might be asking. Yes. Clicks. Like a robot should. Also I think I saw something shiny recede into the back of her head at one point. Can't be sure. She needs a lot of sleep (I'm thinkin' robot batteries don't recharge quite as quickly unless you're plugged into a wall or something.)
About a month ago, she was working 90 hour work weeks. That's ridiculous. Wouldn't her servo units lock up without the proper oiling and coolant application? Maybe that's what she does when she says she needs to go "freshen up".
She plays video games like you or me. But unlike you or me, her fingers move way too fast for normal humans. I can't beat her at tetris attack. She's just too good. She actually picks her thumbs completely off the controller and then places it on the appropriate button. Eventually there won't be any games I can beat her at.
In any event, I'm fine with it I guess. It's not like I hate her or anything. I realize she's just a little different from you or me. For one thing she can't turn invisible like I can.
