deja vu, all over again...

last weekend, i went on a driving expedition with my mom and grammy, somewhere between lake mcqueeny and new braunfels, i saw a two and a half story house painted a color like oxidized copper, with a double wrap around porch. the house was surrounded by fields, and had a tree break on one side of it. the only other place i have ever seen a house that like was in a dream i had a year and a half ago, almost to the exact date. i have been sort of haunted, in a good way, since last saturday.

here's the journal entry i wrote about it when i woke up:

February 26, 2006 - Sunday

i had the most amazing dream either sometime last night or this morning. it was so vivid. like if i had stayed asleep long enough, it could have become totally real.
i dreamed i bought a house-- a green one with two and a half stories, painted some random green color--like the way copper looks when it's oxidized. i had a little writing room at the top of the house, and i could see the fields all around my house (because it's a farm house...duh), because there were walls of windows on all four sides, and i had all my book deadlines dry erased on the windows, so i could see when my editor needed things. and there was a windmill in the backyard that had brand new silver blades on it, and the wind was blowing to beat the band.
i dreamed i caught a bus to go into town, and i ended up in a bar, and all my favorite people were there, and i was suddenly playing some card game that was a cross between texas hold-em and five card stud, in a smokey room where a nice waitress kept bringing us unlimited sweet tea with lemon slices and fried catfish. we played cards and laughed and talked about life, and i felt alive and beautiful and free. and then i realized i was secretly in love with this idiot man who is so far out of my league that i should even be allowed to talk to him, much less have a crush on him, but i told him that anyway, and he didn't freak out, and then all my friends and idiot hot guy and i all loaded up on the bus and went back to my house for a house warming party.
i woke up knowing that everything is going to be ok. and that my house is waiting for me. my life is now.

very strange, don't you think? i have no idea what this means. but it's kind of exciting.
