I thought about writing a joke about time travel but only three of you liked it.

I wish time travel was real. I don’t think I would want to see what’s in store in the coming years, but I would definitely love to relive many moments in my past. Most of them would involve successful practical jokes, of course, but there are other things too.

The birthing of my children would be at the top of the list. Except for the gross parts. I know! I’m a wuss! But I get to choose. I would buy tons of bananas just for the peels so I could strategically place them in the path of people I never liked. Now that would be funny!

I wouldn’t do anything to change my future, because I loved show business but maybe cut out a couple of marriages. Yeah, that’s a good one. And maybe decide not to throw a rock at a bully in school who beat me senseless. Not a smart thing to do. In fact, I would undo every stupid thing I ever did! Ah, who am I kidding? There’s only so much time I could spend in that space. I’d never even come close to getting them all.
