Every once and a while I will have a thought pop into my head, usually something that is going to cause harm to myself, then sure enough it happens.

For example, I was sitting at a stop light one day, thought to myself "Man, wouldn't it suck if this person behind me hit my car?" I looked in my rear view mirror, she was at a complete stop. Not even 10 seconds later she hit my car.

Another instance was when I was laying in bed with my son, I thought to myself "wouldn't it suck if he stabbed me in the eye with his sippy cup lid?" sure enough, less than 5 seconds later, he did. Same case a little over a year later "wouldn't it suck if he rolled over to give me a hug and bashed me in the nose with his sippy cup" he did. My list goes on and on, it almost always starts with a thought of "wouldn't it suck if..."

I usually do not have enough time to react to those thoughts before they happen, but is there a way to kind of develop that so maybe in the future I can potentially avoid being bashed in the face with a sippy cup or stubbing my toe in the middle of the night? Even find a way to differentiate between the real ones and the random thoughts(like thinking to myself, wouldn't it suck if my Dad died in a fiery airplane crash, then he turns out to be perfectly okay)?

I have recently noticed a small line under my lower lip. I do not wear lipstick or lip liner, but if i were to describe its appearance, i would say it looks like i used lip liner just slightly outside of my lip base. It is just a few shades lighter than my lip but much darker than my skin. It was initially only a change in color but i have recently noticed a change in texture closer to that of my lip. I am wondering if this is something i should be concerned about, as i have problems with my hormones(i am only 25, but have incredibly high estrogen levels), and also had skin cancer about 10 years ago. Is this something i should have looked at by a doctor? does anyone have some input as to what this may be or what may be causing it?
