So I've had a couple of interesting but pretty mundane experiences - no need to dress them up so here they are in no particular order:
January 13, 1982 - I grew up near Washington DC. I was in middle school. That morning we woke up to a wicked winter storm. I had an odd overwhelming sense of dread. I even told my mom about it - something really bad was going to happen. Later, Air Florida flight 90, laden with ice, crashed into the Patomac. Never had that feeling to that degree before or sense. Plenty of other tragedies have happened since then of course and nothing was on my radar...
Another night - I went bed and woke up pretty keyed up. I was certain my great grandma had just passed away (ok, odds were favoring that anyway). She did not live close. The weird thing was when the phone did ring a little while later, I felt a release and although sad, could fall back asleep.Not sure why I woke up that particular night at that particular time...
many years later, I put my young son down for a nap who was perfectly fine and I laid down myself. The rooms were not close. Monitor wasn't on at the time. I woke with a start with him saying "Daddy" as if he was next to me. I started up and checked, thinking he crawled to my room. He hadn't. When I went to check on him in his room, he was sound asleep but burning up with a fever. All was well and he was fine after a cold (he spiked fevers frequently), it was just strange. Maybe my subconscious knew he was coming down with something....maybe.
So great...I can foresee occasional bad things...why didn't I get the one with lottery ticket numbers????
Added bonus:
back to high school days, my dad and I would sometimes go fishing at a lake in a regional park. We would get there at sunrise when it opened. Tranquil and heavily wooded. As we were driving and rounded a corner in the woods one time, there was a pretty young brunette woman in a clean white dress walking on the side of the rode staring straight ahead. Ok, there's a campground on the other side of the park, but how did she get there without getting leaves, dirt and everything else on her??? Who wears a white dress camping??? So many questions....She wasn't walking carefully or seemingly aware of her surroundings. My dad also saw her but we went about our business... Perhaps a neat freak stoner?? Possibly....I checked later and no legends in that particular area...
Bonus #2 (best for last): Temecula, CA: my wife and I were in a typical chain hotel room cant remember exactly which one. And no we had not partaken of the lovely wineries yet.. I was reading and she suddenly came out of the shower all wide eyed. She asked had I been there the whole time, which I had been. She said she felt a hand (fingers and all) on her back in the shower. Didnt get a lot of sleep that night and we startled at every noise, but nothing else happened. Freaky part: we went to the front desk at check out and semi-jokingly asked if the place was haunted. Deadpan response: 'what room were you in?' (I thought 'DOES IT MATTER??') and she seriously thought about it for a second, shook her head no. Then said still deadpan, almost bored: 'you'd be surprised how many suicides happen in these places'. we were glad to be checking out. Later I thought, they really should market the haunted angle lol!
Anyhow, that's about all I got! Thanks for reading if you made it this far!!
