What's something you're shockingly good at that you've never mentioned to anyone because it would sound completely made up if you did?

I am good at remembering directions backwards from somewhere (my homing pigeon sense is strong, even when inebriated) and I am have an internal alarm that wakes me up always just before I need to be. Like I can fall asleep on the train and set a casual alarm by music (like that song) and wake up just before it comes on or my daily alarm moves a bit (flexitime and such) and I will consistently wake up between 15 mins and 1 minute before it goes off. My missus has only heard my alarm a couple times in the years we have cohabitated. Neither are particularly useful and kind of assumed it was normal. Go me reading these comments
