Adam Josh: Brog

Yeah it's been a while since I've had a good old fashioned time travel dream. Actually, the last one I had I marked down here on the website ("adamjosh.com"  - whispered into your ear) under "More Time Travel Dreams", back on 25.05.2011.

If you haven't ever had a time travelling dream, you're missing out. Once we figure out how to order up our dreams like dessert, we'll get that all sorted out for you.

In the first part of this three or four part dream, I went back to 1990 to my old house. I told my dad in front of past-me that he was going to ultimately sell the house and move to Ottawa. He found it hard to believe, so I backed up and went over details,

"Look Dad, I'm from the future, I'm from 2011, I'm a time traveller, look at my hands, see the same sissy-test scar as on this Adams. Ask me anything, I know everything about you, I'm your son. You are going to move in with Maria in Hamilton, then after you sell the house you are going to move to Ottawa."

I could see my sisters' aura and my dads as well, so I was wondering why it is that I am standing behind past-me but they are sort of melding together with their bodies. It was moderately confusing. I remember pulling out my pocket change and showing them dates on the coins, to try and prove that I was from the future. I also tried to tell my sister that she would go on to get married and have three kids. She was in awe and doubt as well. Then I remember thinking to myself that I needed to find a way to see if this was real or just a dream, so I would bury one of the quarters outside the house in a spot where I knew. I have yet to go to the old house and see if it's there, but I'm sort of inclined to think it was just a dream.

In another part of the dream I went walking around downtown and I think it was 1989, I ran into some strangers and tried telling them about the future. "You're going to just love all the endless wars we get into!" I also showed them my pocket change and whatever was in my wallet, trying to prove my story.

I woke up at one point, thinking that was one of the coolest dreams I've ever had, and I checked the clock - 3:45am, so I went back to sleep, hoping to have more time travel dreams. When I got back to the dream I was now explaning to two girls who seemed interested in me that I was a time traveller from the future. They were asking about my "mission" and found it all very Tom Cruise-esq, sans the L. Ron Hubbard. It was all very sexy and cinematic. I woke up at some other point as well, in a fight with some shadows. Lucky for everyone involved - I sleep alone nowadays.

As I was waking up I was musing over how much potential there is to abuse time travel technology. I am convinced it already exists by the way. Probably best not used in my hands, wait, no, scratch that.
