I have a gift

I can predict the immediate future. “Lacey, you crazy guhl!” I PREDICTED you would say that.

2 or maybe even 3 instances of this:

1. Yesterday before I got my speeding ticket, I kept thinking ‘Damn, I really hope I don’t get a speeding ticket because I don’t have my new plates on my car’ then a few minutes later as I’m driving and realizing I’m going to be late for work, I thought “Well if my boss asks why I’m late, I’ll just tell him I got a ticket on the way to work” - then 5 minutes later I GOT A TICKET!!

2. Last night, Rhonda, Jason, and I went to get BBQ at Rudy’s for dinner. They have self-serve drinks and as I was looking at all the choices and deciding if I should embarrass 2 friends with my self-serve mixing habits, I start thinking “Maybe I should just get Sprite, but you know, Sprite is the only soft drink that you can’t tell when it’s just spitting out carbonated water and no sugary syrup.” I decide to go with Sprite anyway - and what do you know? The sprite WAS INDEED just spitting out carbonated water!!!

3. The other day, Syd, Chad, and I had an email thread going back and forth about singular possessives that end in ‘S’ and about names that end in ‘S’ (Yes, it was brought up by trying to make Mills into the possessive form). We argued about if you should put an apostrophe and then an ‘S’ or just an apostrophe. Well then yesterday I got Jason to tell me what his potential future baby names are and he said that Jonas was always one he wanted, but he feared the confusion of when his son’s name would be made into the possessive form. WHAT?!! I was just picking a fight about that the day before. This one doesn’t necessarily mean that I saw the future, but it could, right?
