A Little Click and a Tap

My joints gave a tiny, cheerful snap! I was standing firmly on my round black stand, one hand resting on my head and the other hovering low, when suddenly my fingers twitched. I could move! Eager to test this brand-new energy, I leaned forward slightly and extended my lower hand toward the small dark book-shaped object sitting beside my base. With a deliberate click of my fingers, I gently tapped its studded edge. It didn't topple, but the solid clink confirmed it: I am truly awake and ready for work!
