January 14th - Take 1
I was briefly haunted by a "ghost" at this point. It is a discredit to my youth that this was literally the only explanation I could come up wth to figure out what was going on here. Regardless, there was a vague white shape in my office when I went to grab my tablet that went on to walk through the wall.
Come to think of it, wasn't such a ridiculous idea that I thought I had faced down an apparition, especially since nothing was missing. If it had been a thief, surely something would have disappeared. Right?
January 14th - Take 2
Teleportation was out of my knowledge, but fortunately I was perfectly able to walk through walls. When everything was charged properly. Now that I'd stolen it from my younger self. It was a bit of a risk, but since now I could determine that it was likely myself who had been the strange, easily dismissed shape in my office, this was my best chance to adjust the knowledge that I had.
So I powdered myself up with flour, drapped some tulle over myself, and walked into my office. An eidetic memory is useful, but mine was so full of information that not all of it was quick to access. So I shifted some things around. Turned out that I had known exactly where to go and what the alarm codes were. But if I changed it, ever so slightly, then me-now could use that information and me-then could complete this little time loop.
And the sight of a random apparition would throw me off noticing anything changed on my notes.
