here's how it all started. last night i pulled the plug on a power strip that had a wall clock attached to it to plug in the BRAND NEW DEHUMIFIER (YAY!). i plugged the power strip back in about 45 minutes later.
bummed around, did stuff, ate.
went back up to bedroom.
looked at alarm clock: 12:30am. **
that's not right....
reset clock to 11:30pm.
sleep.
wake up.
alarm clock says: 8:15am.
wow, i'm early
melissa says bye to jeremy. **
melissa never leaves early for work. no_medication?=mania
jeremy says "i think i'm a few minutes late already. gotta go." **
wash, brush, feed cat, check dehumidifier.
check wall clock: 8:48am **
time flies. guess i'll just be on time again.
take train.
it's empty. it's september 11. that's why.**
get into work.
go to kitchen.
check clock: 10:17am. **
??!?
the clock must be wrong.
Bloomberg radio announcer says "Bloomberg Time is now 10:17am." **
she must be reading the same bad clock i'm reading.
walk to desk
phone lcd clock reads: 10:18am **
Windows start menu reads: 10:18 **
i'm late. in another dimension, there would have been another attack and i would have been saved. but i'm just late.

**i should have been clued in by this.
