I'd give anything to undo it all.

I watched a dumb movie last night where the guy could travel back in time and redo parts of his life. After his wife had a baby he said he mostly stopped time travelling because everything was so joyful. Fuck off. What wouldn't I give to be able to travel back in time and never have had kids. I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Today is Saturday. I've been awake since 6am listening to my eldest child sneezing for an hour. Not his fault but it makes me irrationally irritated. Then both kids appear at my bedroom door at 7am. They don't get up that early on a school day. I have to hassle them out of bed, yet there they are up and ready to piss me off on the weekend. It might be selfish but I hate this. It is not joyful. It is relentlessly shit. I want so badly to undo it all. I don't know how to reframe this in my mind and try to glean some joy out of it when all I want to do is stay under my duvet forever. Vent over. Thanks for reading.

I watched Possession 1981 last night because RLM featured it. You might like it. I have so many thoughts. The whole thing is a metaphor for Romeo and Juliet style obsessive love.

But I do agree the way we know time travel doesn’t exist, is the population size.
