i knew that xbox was evil.
well, it all started sometime around 2001. i wasrather young back then,and i remember having a strage dream, that went as such.

I seemed to be following - and directing- a squad of four soldiers. however, instead of being one of them myself, it was more like i was floating behind them, a sort of third-person omniscient type of view. We were in a desert-ish location, similar to the middle east.

We were moving down a narrow street, and in the building at the end of the street, on a balcony, was an enemy terrorist, or whatever. he was pretty entrenched there, so we were moving in for a better shot. I order them behind a large steel dumpster for cover. Out of nowhere, our entrenched militant friend produces a rocket launcher, and fires! being somewhat intelligent (or having poor aim), he doesn't hit the front of our cover, he hits the ground beside it, killing three members of the squad instantly.

Fast Forward 4 years, to the summer of 2005.

I'm now at my friends house, playing his xbox. The game full Spectrum Warrior had just been released. As it was mainly single player, we would take turns playing when one of us died. sure enough, it was my turn. Having long since forgotten that dream, I moved into a narrow street. lo and behold,at the other end of the street was a terrorist. Hunkered down on a balcony.

The events continued to play out exactly like in my dream. I didn't even remember until the rocket hit. Needless to say, I was rather stunned. Certainly the nerdiest premonition I've ever heard of.

If anyone is interested, i think it was at the beginning of chapter 5...

Also, hello all!

Nerdy premonitions
...are better than none at all methinks! I have the uncanny ability to tell when the microwave is about to beep. I refuse to believe it is simply an extension of my sense of smell or my internal clock's ability to count down along with the microwave, although staring at the microwave's timer may have something to do with it...

perhaps...
it was the ghost of that last burrito?
also, I'm pretty sure it wasn't deja vu, as i remember getting out of bed and talking to my mom about it (I woke up after the dream, and it was morning by then)
