Dimensional Dilemma

A dimensional vortex has just opened up in your home. It takes you to an alternate reality, where only one single detail is different. What is that detail? How severe of an impact does it have on your day/your life?

Example:

I woke up this morning, feeling stiffer than usual. There’s slight pain in my back, near the top. I stretch and try to limber up, but to no avail. There’s something wrong with my back. I get ready to go, all the while wondering what I did to deserve such punishment from my back. It doesn’t even hurt that bad, it just won’t go away. It’s frustrating.

I get to work, and everyone’s looking at me like I’m crazy. Coworkers, managers, even customers seem to think there’s something wrong with me – but I have no idea what. Even as I’m assisting elderly ladies, it seems like they’ve got some sort of grudge against me for oddities that they don’t even know I’ve done.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, I go hide out in the men’s room. I splash some water in my face, and look in the mirror. I somehow had a hanger in the back of my shirt all day. Oh. That's all that was different?
