Pseudo-Psychic Dreams

Dreams that seem to be psychic, for when you wake, some news predicted in the dream turns out to be true--until you wake up AGAIN, and find the confirmation of your dream-ESP was a dream itself. Why list such sneaky, frustrating dreams? Oh, I just wanted you to know it can happen!

If you do have a pseudo-psychic dream, don't feel cheated. Yeah, your dreams didn't prove they have a psychic sense, but they DID prove they have a more important sense: a sense of humor.
