The Chapman Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 ^ I've had episodes of going to places, feeling deja vu, and realizing I had dreamed about the location without ever having been there, my entire life. > It makes me feel sometimes as though everything is planned out ahead of time, and I'm following a predetermined path that I can occasionally get glimpses of, but can never wholly see. v Favorite weather.

Cheeky Actress Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 ^ A warm fall afternoon, just around sun set with the sweet smell of cider in my mug as I sit on my porch and take it all in! > Gee Chapman, my father experienced one of those deja vu feelings back in the late 1950s. He was on his way to CA to do a Air Force Promo, when he and several other enlisted men got lost in a town in OH. As they pulled into town looking for a place to stop and spend the night, it was my father who said, "Go up and take a left by the church. I think there is a Inn there." Sure enough there way. The date on the Inn was 1843! When asked by his buddies how he knew this. He shrugged his shoulders. Creepy. v Favorite thing to wear?
