I'm in the bathroom in the house I grew up in. But I am the present day version of me. I suddenly notice the time. The clock reads 12:30pm, but it's an hour fast because I didn't set it back for the end of Daylight Savings Time.
Someone was supposed to come here to do an energy audit at 10:00am. But I did not hear the doorbell.
I pull up my pants quickly. Now they are askew, but I have no time to straighten them out. As I rush to the front door, I notice a car in the driveway through the front window. I open the door. There are four old people sitting in two very small convertibles, which are parked right outside the front door, as if the stoop isn't there. I look at one of them, an old lady who's looking up at me through large, plastic-rimmed glasses.
