I Would Be Awesome

I’ve been thinking a lot about time traveling lately.

I’m thinking it’s possible.

But I’m not sure.

I am pretty certain, however, that one can’t time travel

to the same time that the person already exists.

For instance, I was born in 1965 and it is now 2011.

I am already here and so I couldn’t travel to 1984

because I already exist at that time.

And I think it has something to do with my atoms clashing,

or something like that.

I can only have so many

“Holly Atoms” in one place at one time.

I would have to either go back before 1965

or go into the future sometime after I’ve died.

But I don’t know when that is yet.

And by the time I found out when that was,

I’d be dead and wouldn’t know.

I could, I guess, go into the future around 2081

since I’m pretty sure I’m not going

 to be alive 70 years from now.

But I wouldn’t want to go into the future.

The past is definitely the way to go.

If you travel into the future,

You’d be all stupid.

You would have missed so much.

You’d stare at flying cars and be all like,

“What the hell is that???!!!”

And people on the street would think you

were a drunk, crazy, homeless person.

Nope, the past is totally the way to go.

Because then I could invent the tape measure

or make a caramel macchiato and people would be all,

“Holy Crap! How did you do that?!”

And then I’d be all,

“Oh, it’s just something I came up with.”

All nonchalant like.

That would be awesome.

You know, I’m just full of ideas, all day long

I’m not saying they’re good ideas.

I’m just saying I’m full of them.
