And I don't mean the Purple One (I loved his rendition of the Foo Fighter's "The Best of You" at Superbowl XLI). I meant the Prince of England. Me. I was being groomed to be a replacement royalty. Weird.
I dreamt this the same morning I'd dreamt of Rhian Denise Ramos (see below). I don't know if there's a connection. That said, I don't believe I have even an ounce of British blood in me. I'm a Japan-born Filipino-American of Chinese, Spanish and possibly Italian ancestry. I've never dreamt of being a prince either. I see myself as a "Lone Wolf McQuade" type. I don't really fancy being a prince...unless the title comes with a lot of moolah.
But there I was in Britian (I've never been to Britain, by the way). I was on the third floor of a building overlooking some sort of large British estate. And I've got these guys trying to teach me how to act like royalty (sort of like that movie "King Ralph" which I hadn't seen since the last millenium).
Curiously, one of those guys was...well, I'm not going to mention his name. I've embarrassed myself enough as it is I don't want to embarrass him too. Let's just say he's a relatively young actor who plays a knight in Star Wars.
So, anyway, after being briefed by OB1 and the secret service guys, I was given documents...presumably written by the guy whom I was supposed to be replacing. One of those documents was a list of people he admired and would like to meet. I noticed two familiar names on the list and I remember being thrilled that I might able to meet them in person at last! After all, I'm a huge fan of theirs...tee-hee! But OB1 crosses out they're names. Bummer!
Then it's Q&A time. OB1 asks me questions that the British press might bring up. He asks me a hypothetical question about my girlfriend. I forgot what the question was butI remember giving him an offhand answer. In response, OB1 screams "WHAT?!!!" I then change my answer to a more regal, "Why, no. Of course not." Like I said...weird.
I dreamt all this before it was announced that Britain's Prince Harry signed up to join the British Army in Iraq. Although I'm not British, I hope my dream isn't a bad omen and I hope nothing bad happens to the guy.
