What I would do is not jump to conclusions. I'd probably assume that I was with another spouse because my first one had died after a long and happy marriage, and in Dim's case I would assume that I was working in a restaurant because I was doing research for my next best-selling novel.
But I'm an optimist.
But that's what got me about this book: All the characters make these huge illogical conclusions from a *2 minute* glimpse *21* years from now. I wouldn't care *what* I saw, if I knew I was still going to be alive 21 years from now I'd whoop and holler with joy.
But that's just me.
