Going to Need a Psychic for this One

I had this dream last night that didn't seem that obviously transparent until I was telling my workout friend this morning. There was a whole plot leading up to this point, but I don't remember it. The part I remember begins with me realizing that my superfriends and I have somehow changed the present by messing with the past. I am now married to my archnemesis, Tom. We have a kid, Tom Jr. (Evidently, I am not creative with names in my sleep.) We realize what's going on, but the rest of the world doesn't. We then have to go to church where another archnemesis is. I went because I needed to figure out what was going on, and Tom Sr. went because you have to meet up with your old partners to figure things out. We get to church and someone asks, "Annika, where's the baby?" Crap. I pass the buck to Tom Sr. hoping he will figure out where this elusive baby is. Eventually, I realize that someone else at church had nameless female baby for whatever reason. I am holding the kid, when Tom Sr. comes in with a different baby. Good God. After we straighten out the baby fiasco, some time lapses. Tom Sr. and I figure out that Tom Jr. is evil like his daddy and nameless female baby is a good superbaby. They have little fights that are cute representations of good vs. evil.

Eventually, we have a dilemma: we want to settle down, but doing that means giving up on saving/destroying the world. (Tom is evil, after all.) But to go back to saving/destroying the world would mean going back into the past and making sure we didn't make babies. What do to do, what to do? Save the world while going on adventures or keeping evil Tom Jr. and superduper nameless female baby? Hmm... adventurous travelling or settling down with a family...

Sometimes even I hate how transparent I am. But no, to assure my loyal readership, I am not a superhero and no, I am not making babies with any archnemesises (yeah, it's a word because I made it a word) that I am aware of, anyhow.
