oh, hello webpage. i forgot what you looked like and almost forgot my username and password as well. actually i have a rather funny story along those lines. i was sitting in the ucla student union early last week trying to look busy for an hour while i waited for andrew so i decided to register online for la city college. this was all well and good until i hit the 'submit' button after entering my email address and a password i just made up. i was sure that the next page of the application process would appear so imagine my surprise when the server informs me that there is already an account with that email address and would i please enter the correct password.
what?
i have never registered for lacc before how could i possible have an account there?
so i click on the little password help button and this question pops up:
which artist do you have a calendar of?
suddenly it all rushes back and as i look at the top of the page i notice that lacc is part of the california community college network and i did register at occ back in 2005 to take a soccer class with sarah, which didn't go at all well and we ended up dropping it.
so i looked at the question again and thought to myself, okay, in 2005 you had a calendar on your wall. the only artists you have clippings from are frida kahlo and rene magritte so it must be one or the other. and sure enough it was rene magritte. man, i felt like the me of the present was having some sort of existential conversation with the me of 2005. like i had somehow reached through time and space to ask the me of the future a question and me of the future nailed it!
