sensory overload?

déjà vu

usually this is not painful for me, maybe uncomfortable. when this happens, my age/no-term memory/swiss cheese brain activity rears it's ugly head. another reminder of my ripening state leaving me discombobulated, more so than i typically am.

i experienced a strong déjà vu during dinner last night. first, cait took me to this wonderful restaurant which i have not haunted yet. familiarity crept over my psyche after i sat down and took in the decor and smells. second, i noticed one of the servers is a lady i had met in the eug. who worked at my friend's old bar. so not really a promnesia experience. third, random patrons appeared to be people i know or have known. all of this in ptown. walking away from the experience, i felt as though i was in the eug.

maybe the city is telling me something...
