I Dreamed A Dream Of Times Ahead

(My sister and I are really excited to see ‘Les Misérables’ when it comes out in theatres. We’ve invited one of our cousins to come along.)

Sister: “Okay, I just texted [cousin] about the movie. Oh, she wants to know when we’re seeing it.”

Me: “When it’s been released, of course.”

(My sister texts this. A few seconds later, my cousin texts back. My sister stares at the screen before laughing and shaking her head.)

Me: “What did she text?”

Sister: “She wants to know why we’re waiting until it’s released to go see it.”

Me: “…Because we can’t time travel?”
