Have you ever had a dream about someone you haven’t seen in years, and then you couldn’t stop thinking about them?

That’s exactly what happened to me.  I took a nap this afternoon, and I had a dream about a guy I knew in high school.  He was a very special part of my life, then he just disappeared about 10 years ago.  I saw him once in Walmart a couple years ago, but by the time I realized who it was and turned around to speak he was gone.  I haven’t seen him or even really thought about him since.

Now I’m wondering why I had a dream about this guy.  There wasn’t anything weird or that would stand out about the dream other than the person featured in it.  I thought about it for awhile, and I even went so far as to look up his name on Myspace out of curiosity.  That was pretty much a dead end, so I didn’t think about it anymore.

I finally made it to bed tonight around midnight.  I slept for right about an hour before I woke up having another dream about this same person.  Of course I know the 2nd dream was probably because I was thinking about him so much after the first dream, but no matter how hard I tried I just couldn’t go back to sleep.

I don’t know why I got so hung up on it or why I let the dream get to me.  I guess the guy was such an important part of my life back then that it just really made me wonder what he’s up to these days.  He’s one of those people I would definitely get back in touch with if given the chance.
