Default Premonitions

Ever get them?

Yesteday I walked out of the building and slipped on the ice; I thought my wife's definitely going to, and she did (I should've called but forgot)

Today I remember thinking I'm going to forget my wallet in my other coat; better transfer it before I leave. Later I forgot I remembered; until I remembered I forgot. Make any sense?

Are premonitions unchangeable?

Oh, yeah! I had one about my dad. My mom, sister, brother and I drove down to Mexicali to take my sister to the train station there one day, when I was 16. I was lying in the back of the station wagon, crying on the way home, because I knew my dad had a hurt leg, and that when we got home there would be a note on the door to call someone. Sure enough, he had cut his leg very deeply with a Skillsaw, and was in the hospital, and there was a note on the door when we got home at about midnight.

When I was a kid I always wondered how I would look with glasses. Now I have to wear them all the time. Not a great premonition, but one that came true.

Nah, it's the hair color.

I think what happens is that you remember these connections but don't remember all the thoughts and speculations that go nowhere. Call it educated random hits -- that impress you and you therefore remember. HPH

You're probably correct on both counts.

How could you have known? Not just that he was hurt, but he leg and note...shades of the twilight zone.

I get scared when know exactly what's going to happen next because I've seen it before in a dream. What's that called? Precognition?
