Time, And Motion

......Was at the school, picking up my daughter, and a friend of hers. They were both now 5 years old. All went well, and we had plenty of time before parents evening started. It was a nice day, so we stopped off at the park, telling them they had half an hour, as i still had to feed them. Half an hour, became 45 minutes, so we left the park, and headed home, and decided to just give them sandwiches instead. funny how quickly time can go, especially when you have to be somewhere....anyway, they were eating their sandwiches, and i left the kitchen, and popped into the living room, and then things suddenly turned really surreal. The atmosphere, and reality changed, it was like those brief minutes during a total eclipse where time seems to stand still, and nature seems to freeze. Then the girls shouted out, in a tone of amazement, rather than fear "times going backwards!" i ran into the kitchen, and saw the kitchen clock literally going backwards, like something from a sci-fi film. The last things i remember, was the girls screaming, and the hands of the clock, gaining momentum, as we started to lift off the floor, and thinking, fuck, this is it...then i woke up
