Of All The Things I've Lost

By Ivan Pasztor

My name is Oid. I am an old and ailing Physicist, and Psychiatrist, who finds himself 72 years in the future. In this new perfect world, in which everyone is young, perfect, and beautiful, I am befriended, at the Tesla Monument at Niagara Falls, by a beautiful young blonde woman who claims she is a Nun from 72 years still further in the future. Her name is Gabriella Vedette, but I call her Gabby. She likes to go to casinos and she likes to shop. She likes hockey and football. She likes to match wits with all of the Cyborgs, Replicants, Simulacra, and Artificial Intelligences that now manage the world. She lives simply in a deserted convent, and practices a form of "self-flagellation" with extremely high doses of electricity to prepare herself for what she calls "the day of reckoning". She says she likes me because I am so wonderfully "imperfect". And, I almost forgot, she likes to blow things up. She says she was sent from the future "to make certain corrections".
