Is it possible that you actually fell asleep on the couch momentarily; sleeped walked to let the dogs in and woke up after the fact? Not as romantic as skipped time and alternate universes but....

Yes, your post was very detailed, right down to the color of your dogs. This sort of reminds me of a riddle to solve. So, with that being said, you didn't mention living with any other people.
Could anybody else in your house have let them in?

The source of this is the Hadron Collider experiments. Part of what we perceive as the multiverse is our own unique perception it's self. May God have mercy on our souls.

I think you're crazy or lying or suffering distorted thinking or all 3.
Although I'm not sure what the difference between crazy and distorted thinking is.
But anyway, do you honestly understand what you're saying?
You're asking me to believe that there's a time/space distortion, like on Star Trek.edit on 12-9-2011 by jonnywhite because: (no reason given)

There is a dis-tractor in the story. It's that wood pole you used to block the door.
So the you see the dogs go out, then you go retrieve the pole from wherever you put it and the dogs for some reason get spooked and come right back in, but you don't see them. Then you put back the pole and go get the coffee....
Just an observation, but you have to allow for everything before you jump at a conclusion that invokes paranormal.

Go ahead and laugh now. I too used to laugh at such things. Not any more. You should print out that reply you posted and save it. There may be a day that you too stop laughing and when that day comes you should think back to this day and that post.
There was a time when I was just like you when it come this things like this and I can remember all the laughing and name calling that I did. Then one day it happened to me and then it was no longer funny.

The minute details of this story are important so soldier through to the end
Last Tuesday, approximately 4:30 AM, I had been awake for about 2 hours. During that time I posted on Facebook, replied to emails, drank a glass of water, and made coffee. I have two husky/golden retriever dogs: one red, one black. The black dog circled in front of the sliding glass door, indicating she needed to go outside. I got off the couch, walked to the door, removed the wood block that ensures someone from the outside can't open it, unlocked it, and opened the door. Both dogs went into the dark morning. I closed the door, locked it, replaced the wood.
I walked into the kitchen, poured the coffee, added creamer, stirred, carried the coffee into the living room, sat on the couch, placed the cup on the TV tray next to the laptop, and began typing again. Perhaps one sentence typed later, the red dog nudged my arm, his normal signal that he wants petted.
I jumped and gave a small startled scream. There he sat, wagging his tail, waiting to be petted. I look for the black dog and find her curled in a ball asleep on the same couch I'm sitting on, two cushions down.
I checked the door: locked with wood block in place. I should have checked the time, but I didn't. To be honest, I was shaken up. Not frightened, but intrigued and dazed.
What happened, I don't know. It wasn't a false awakening because the Facebook posts and emails exist, proof I was truly awake. The details are important to show I didn't fall asleep.
I needed to share this with like-minded people. Mostly for my own peace of mind (assuming there is any left, lol). Thanks for reading.
I find myself speculating if these happenings are a reaction...symptom...consequence (I have no idea what the correct word here is) of something bigger heading our way, like rippling waves before the big tsunami.
Pure speculation, obviously, but I welcome all thoughts
Seems almost dangerous because I wouldn't be able to know if the next universe is a place that would be good, and I sure couldn't guarantee I could get back to here.
I went mad as a result. I ended up fighting the spider, rather than confronting the holder of the scissors. I failed.
Something lost.
Something gained,
Something changed,
Yet remained the same.
Are you really gone for good?
I'd hate to think you're gone for bad.

I did another experiment by letting my spirit alter ego lead. I don't know how to explain her, because I'm not a member of any group that has a developed vocabulary about such.
The window opened before me. I saw the young woman with the blue dress on, and she saw me too. Then, I suppose, I faded from her sight, yet I learned the back story: She was in the locked tower, awaiting execution by beheading the next day. It may just be my own romanticizing of the situation, but she may have actually been asking for some help, at least a friendly face. All I could do was be a presence with her, so she wasn't alone.
(scene fades to allow the imagination to build the jeering and insulting crowd, as she kneels at the block)
After it was over, and I slowly recovered, I wrote a poem:
Something lost.
Something gained,
Something changed,
Yet remained the same.

I was merely an observer, yet a little bit more. I didn't change history, only assisted a person who was leaving it.edit on 14-9-2011 by pthena because: (no reason given)
