I had a religious experience the other night
#13
RE: I had a religious experience the other night
Years ago, I was lying in bed and waiting for Sam who'd gone upstairs visiting Shell. I wasn't even feeling dozy, but I distinctly and clearly heard her voice outside the bedroom door weakly calling my name. I immediately shot out of bed and threw open the door, and there was nobody there. The room is right next to the front door, so I opened that and looked out onto the landing. Still nothing. I'd read about hypnopompia and hypnagogia, so I reasoned that's what it must have been.

Probably ten minutes later I heard Sam's footsteps trip-trapping down the stairs, followed by the lady herself coming in, happy as - well, happy as herself.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
