sixth sense


... earlier today in 392C

mandy: you look really tired today estelle.
me: mandy, i had a horrible dream last night.
mandy: oh no, what happened?
me: i dreamt that we had a pop quiz today and i didn't read [the article] the night before.
mandy: (assuringly) don't be silly estelle. the prof isn't going to give us a pop quiz on the third day of class.
(our eyes dart over to the door, watching our prof briskly enter the classroom)
me: (starting to panic again) ... well, did you read any of it?
mandy: (shakes head) nope. look estelle, she's not going to give us a pop quiz today, especially on a 20-page article. don't worry.
me: right. (in a more relaxed voice) you're absolutely right.
(amidst the class chatter our prof slowly writes the agenda of today's class on the board and turns to face the class)
prof morrison: ... and yes, we will be having a pop quiz today.
shawnica: i really think you need to stop having these dreams, estelle.

the one time i'm psychic. yeeesh - go fig. :oP
