I've decided to go back and visit myself in the past for just a moment. I'm going to travel back to this date in 1984, during my freshman year in High School and have a talk.

Me: Hey!

Young Me: Hey!

Me: 25 years from now, on this day, NASA is going to announce they've found arsenic based life!

YM: NO WAY! Like the Horta, only arsenic instead of silicon? That's so cool! Where did they find it? Io? Mars?

Me: No! Right here on Earth!

YM: You're kidding!

Me: Nope. Not one bit. You know what's better? I'm at work and actually watching the NASA press conference.

YM: What's the big deal there? You have a TV at work, right?

Me: Nope. I'm watching on my phone.

YM: Pull the other one.

Me: I'm serious. No joking there.

YM: That's totally AWESOME!

Me: I know, right?!!??! Well, I gotta get back to my time and back to work.

YM: Okay. Will I see you again?

Me: Who knows. Maybe. Oh, by the way, don't let Mom buy most of your clothes at Chess King, okay?

YM: You know that's not going to happen, right?

Me: Yeah, but it was worth a shot.

YM: Hey, do you have flying cars yet?

Me: Sort of but not really for public consumption.

YM: Oh.

Me: Don't worry, there's still a LOT of super cool things to look forward to.

YM: Cool!
