note to my future self

Do you ever wonder what would happen if, perhaps many years later, in the near future, you'd ever need to go back in time and tell your past self something really important that is sort of like a life and death thing? How would you go about convincing your past self that you're telling the truth and that you are really from the future? Are you still following me here? Anyway, it is obvious that something like that would be very hard to believe. I mean, how would you feel if some old person, who suspiciously looks like you but yet you are not entirely sure, suddenly comes up to you and tells you he or she is you from the future and and has traveled back in time through some sort of time machine because he or she has to tell you something? How would you not just dismiss that individual as some crazy person?

Luckily, I've devised a plan. I know I've gotten inspiration for this somewhere but I can't really remember where right now. Anyway, I have formed a secret code that's hard to guess and that only I know and that I haven't told or will ever tell anyone. I will never write this code down and I will never say it out loud. I have embedded it deep into my brain and no-one could ever possibly know it but me.

 Okay, so maybe him too.

So anyway, if anyone comes up to me claiming she's my future self, all I have to do to verify her story is to ask her the secret code I've formed and remembered in my mind. If she's telling the truth, she should know that code, too and it would save both of us the time and effort with all the formalities and we can get straight to business.

Haha. What do you think? Sorry, my brain has been reduced to mush right now and I still have a lot to do. Oh noeees! :O

See ya,
