Well, I am around, if only briefly.
I got a call from work - if they get busy, they're gonna call me in. How doctor-like - I'm on call!
So I hurredly got the foodstuffs together for Mother's Day Dinner - even if I'm gone, the steaks are marinating (Coke, Worcestshire, Frank's Red Hot - a mere smidge, and garlic cloves) ready for the grill, the baked spuds are ready to go into the oven, the fresh vegetables are ready to be steamed and the fruit cups are filled with pineapple chuncks, watermelon chunks and cantelope chunks. Dinner is at five, even if i get called to work, I should be back no later than six.
Interesting post, DR Panni. Now, I often thought about being a reincarnation of a famous person, but, never fantasized about being anyone's offspring. Valentino, yes, I was his reincarnation! Isidor Straus, I'm him reincarnated, too. Some lovely lass from 18th Century France who went from the farm to the palace of the king, yeah, that's me, too.
Of course, the latter is cause for concern, not only gender-wise, but, strange as it may seem, several friends as well as several acquaintances have told me that when they have a dream about me, they see an auburn haired lass wearing a richly brocaded, green velvet gown with a string of pearls around her ivory neck! I've seen a girl who looks like that in my dreams, but, she's always a contemporary Frenchwoman - once she was a militant - who is leading me through The Louvre. She has never entered my dreamstate as a personage from a different century, though.
Now, does anyone else have any reincarnation tales?
I'm also reading a wonderful book (Attention DRs Pogue and Panni) about the area that I live in.
