Man, it's funny how you don't remember something so obvious. There's just too much to remember.
Oh, absolutely! I mean, it's thousands of years! You can only remember so much. OK, embarrassing story time.
Story time! OK, OK, hold on. Story time is very important around here. Let me put on some coffee.
Em, I got it! Don't get up.
Thank you, baby.
OK. So.
So ... this would have been in the 13,500s. Because, yes, I was apartment-shopping in Seattle. So sometime around then. I was single at the time, so I was just looking for a one-bedroom. But like a real one-bedroom, you know how landlords are always listing studio apartments as one-bedrooms.
Ohh yes.
That's a whole other situation. Anyway, I see the place and I'm like, this is perfect. Beautiful bay windows, washer and dryer in the building, tall ceilings, exposed brick, everything. It's everything I want, it's just perfect. So I sign the lease right there on the spot, because it's like it's just perfect for me. It's literally everything I'm looking for in an apartment.
Well. This is, like, a month after I moved in. I was doing the dishes, and then I just froze. And I realized

I realized I had lived there before!
laughter
Oh no! Oh my God! When?
I don't know, way way back-- a really long time ago. You know, actually, I went back and looked it up. I'd lived there for two years back in 7174. And I realized I'd arranged the furniture pretty much the same way and everything. Oh God, it was so weird.
And you know what was even weirder, was when I went back and looked up my old photos from when I lived there before. It was unreal, seeing myself in the same living room from 6,000 years ago. It was like looking like a ghost. I couldn't decide whether it was more scary or funny, because obviously, you looked at my wardrobe and it was clear, I had some serious 7100s going on.
Tell me you were wearing a snap bracelet.
Oh yeah. Ohhhh yeah. I had like five on one arm, skinny jeans, bowling shoes. It was like taking a time machine back to the 7170s.
