Missed Some Deja Vu

Laurieanichols: Have you ever truly felt déjà vu, the sensation that you’ve already had the experience you’re currently having? I have to think for a moment…….. No, I don't think that I have or if I have, I've forgotten about it.

Deja vu holds a special place in many science fiction programs and mystery settings. I think that it is mostly associated in those situations with past lives or alternate universes, perfect fodder for a science fiction geek like myself. I would think that there ought to be some significance to a deja vu moment; "hark pay attention, you missed it the first time, we are showing it to you again, come on now, pay attention" Why else would you experience deja vu if not because you missed the boat the first time around?

Perhaps I missed some deja vu moments because I am really not an observant person; sometimes it takes a knock on the head for me to actually see something and so the whole deja vu thing might just be too subtle. I don't know. Do I feel like I as if I'm missing something having never experienced deja vu or if I did, forgetting about it? No.
