I know you&#8211; but really, I doubt you remember me. I want to scream in your face: &#8220;Where are you from?&#8221; but you&#8217;d probably say something like Maryland or just forty minutes away or something like that but that&#8217;s not what I mean. I want to ask: &#8220;Did we share a dream once?&#8221; or something like: &#8220;I think I had a daydream about you while I was walking through ShopRite one time,&#8221; but people don&#8217;t talk about that.<\/p>\n<p>No, no one talks about the fact that I had d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu all through my senior year of high school, as if I had already lived it, or at least <em>someone<\/em> had already lived it&#8211; the last class room feelings, the beach house on June 3rd, all of it&#8211; no, no one talks about that. Or asks. But I guess it&#8217;s hard to see it on my face.<\/p>\n<p>But most people just don&#8217;t think about that. Yeah, I guess it&#8217;s a coincidence that we&#8217;ve all met up and we work well together (for a month so far)&#8230; But also, there has to be something else at work. I just hope I&#8217;m not the first to notice or the first to bring it up. Because I know how much you hate it when people talk during movies and I agree but I also would just like to say: If you can guess the ending of the movie, it&#8217;s far more impressive if you call it 20 minutes into the movie and not 20 minutes after it ends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have met you.
