Last night I was listening to the AM Radio show called,"Coast to Coast."
If you haven't heard of it I suggest you start listening to it.
However something happened last night that was unexplainable for me.
Generally I don't have many dreams when I go to bed after smoking(weed). How ever last night I was just laying in bed waiting to feel tired and listening to this radio show. They mentioned something about deja vu, and the talk show host described what it is in a very stimulating way to me. He said something a long the lines of the fact that it's your brain processing information faster than it's happening and so a previous memory is put into that place and so it makes you think what's presently happening has already happened(but it hasn't).
So anyways to get to the point, I thought this was a very interesting way of looking at it.. So the radio went to commercials and so I turned it off and tried to fall asleep thinking about what he had said about Déjà vu.
I don't really remember too many thoughts after thinking about that theory but I did end up remembering A LOT OF DREAMS!!!
So just now I was looking up Déjà vu on wikipedia and I found this...

Dreams
Some[who?] believe déjà vu is the memory of dreams. Though the majority of dreams are never remembered, a dreaming person can display activity in the areas of the brain that process long-term memory. It has been speculated[by whom?] that dreams read directly into long-term memory, bypassing short-term memory entirely. In this case, déjà vu might be a memory of a forgotten dream with elements in common with the current waking experience. This may be similar to another phenomenon known as déjà rêvé, or "already dreamed". However, later studies[which?] on mice indicate that long-term memories must be first established as short-term memories.
Anyways, I thought it was interesting so I thought I'd share with you guys. I think maybe it's possible that thinking about DeJa Vu while waiting to fall asleep triggered some of those dreams.
I have no idea if it's true or not but hell I'm going to try it again!
