Deja vu Dreams

For as long as I can remember I have experience a very weird phenomenon related to dreams. Even before I begin to attempt to explain exactly what it is I'm experiencing I already know it's going to be extremely difficult making you understand.

Yesterday Maureen and Gail were cleaning up the kitchen after we had our breakfast.  I was in the next room sitting with Jenny, our dog, waiting for them to finish so I could go in and give myself an insulin injection.

I heard Gail suggest to Maureen that she should go on and take her shower since she would be leaving for work shortly.  Maureen said something like "It's hard to take a shower and do dishes at the same time."  I understood what she meant because it's a shocking experience, being in the shower while someone is running water off and on in the kitchen. You will either be cold or hot, depending on the way the kitchen sink faucet lever is positioned. 

As I heard those words being exchanged between them it suddenly came to me that I had dreamed of that exact event at some time in the recent past.  I remembered what I had dreamed upon waking that morning and as most of us have done at some time in their life, I chalked it up to having another meaningless dream and put it out of my mind.  That's what I always do and sooner or later, certain dreams will take place and that's when I recall that I had dreamed about it.  Does that make any sense at all?

It would be different if I were to dream about some catastrophic event that involved someone being killed or injured and was to remember that I had dreamed about it and that would allow me to know in advance what was going to happen so I had opportunity to intervene and change the outcome.  I've had several dreams where things like a stove blowing up happened but when the event finally did take place, the explosion I dreamed about didn't happen.  Every other small detail leading up to the explosion DID take place however.  I guess you could say it was kind of anti-climactic.

Every time one of those dreams comes true I can't help but wonder what it's all about.  Why do I see in a dream, future events, if it's of no use to anyone?

People tend to look at me kind of funny should I try to explain it to them at the moment it happens.  I know they are thinking "So What?  Big Deal! You knew what I was going to say to someone before I actually said it."  How can I expect them to believe me?  I can't prove it.

I really do believe that it's this kind of dreaming that is responsible for that feeling so many have had that is often called "Deja vu."

It is just me?  I mean has anyone else experienced something like this?
Would you like to share with me what your experience was like?
