3. I did that once in high school
I got up, swore the alarm was going off and I turned it off, and took a shower. When I came out of the bathroom, my grandfather was standing there, asking me when I planned to go to bed. I said "Go to bed? I'm getting ready for school!" It was 2 AM.

When my son was in Kindergarten, I woke up one day with that feeling that I'd overslept. I got him up and dressed, and went to the school. When we got there, there were only a few cars in the parking lot. A teacher had passed away and his funeral was that day, and it was a small town, so I thought maybe they had cancelled school for the day and I didn't get the note. I stopped a teacher in the parking lot and said "Is there going to be school today?" She replied, "Yes, but it's not even seven yet." Oops! Back home...delivered the kid an hour later, on time.
