Dear Time's Waste — Joseph Mitchell

Greg Tripp is a married man. A military man. A happy man. Although his checkered past nips at his heels, Greg is proud of the life he has made for himself and the life he shares with his wife, Ann. After a conversation with a crestfallen co-worker leads Greg to contemplate his own past, as well as give life to a fledgling split-personality, Greg finds himself the following morning in an inexplicable situation he cannot fully comprehend. Were they really dreams? Or is Greg an unwitting violator of the laws of nature?
