My typical Wordpress upgrade begins when I release a laboratory mouse into a maze. The mouse guides himself through the maze looking for a piece of cheese placed in the center of the maze on a pressure sensitive switch. After the mouse eats the cheese, the switch is released triggering a fan that blows a small toy pirate ship across a container of water. After crossing the water the boat's mast knocks over a book balancing on the edge of the container (Most likely, Bulletproof Web Design by Dan Cederholm). Upon falling, the book lands on a scale throwing off the balance of weight. The opposite side of the scale contains a small birdcage which lifts up, and has it's latched flipped open as it moves upwards by a protruding stick attached to a nearby table.

Once opened a small blue bird fly's out of the cage and across the room with a small note (not exceeding 140 characters) attached by string to one of its feet. As the bird flys over, the note is caught in a butterfly net balancing on a table and detaches from the bird. The net falls over and lands on a button which starts a lighter on a nearby table. Above the lighter is a horizontal string with a foam finger hanging from it. The fire quickly burns through the string, releasing the finger.

The foam finger falls on a computer mouse button that has its cursor positioned over the Wordpress "One Click Upgrade" button. The click of he mouse causes the upgrade to start.On completion of the upgrade, a custom Wordpress plugin starts playing triumphant music (Hello Dolly anyone?). Meanwhile, I'm putting out fires, gathering up crazed animals and resetting the machine for the inevitable security update that will come out a few days later. All in a days work....
