I was asleep on the floor in the den at my parents's house. The sun was getting high in the sky. Now I was late for school. First I checked the driveway for any vehicles. No cars. Next stop was the corner where I used to wait for the bus to high school. Eventually the bus pulled up and I got on. Fucking bus driver took the scenic route and all the while I was going nuts saying "I need to be there by twelve!"

"Don't worry! You'll get there!" the driver would laugh.

To my surprise, school was right on the horizon and the clock showed 11:58 a.m.. Yet the bus kept getting slower the closer it got to the school. Much like a space ship approaching the speed of light. By the time it was in front of the school it was twelve o'clock. I ran inside hoping to get a detention slip so I could avoid getting punished foor roaming the halls.
