1235 Points

It's now 9:11 p.m. I am finished playing loop for the time being.

After playing Loop for about an hour, I finally decided to read the help section. It was very helpful. After another hour I was able to raise my score to 1235---not bad considering I started the day at under 250 points. 

What I've learned:

I have an addictive personality.

I can play just as well with the touchpad as with the mouse

I still have another hour or two of work to do.

My eyes hurt, my finger is aching and I'm feeling loopy.
