140711 They never stop

I had a dream (nightmare) last night.

I joined the Marine Corps. That’s a nightmare in itself, but the real nightmare came in my dream. I was in recruit training. A junior officer was speaking and he began to harass me in particular. I said to him, “don’t be such an ass.” He did not like that at all. He told the other recruits to take me down. They ripped my uniform apart leaving me in just my skivvies as they began to attack me, one after another.

I had practiced karate in the early eighties (not a dream, I actually did karate for several years. I still remember almost all of the moves.)

I was fending off my attackers well, until this really large recruit came at me. I let him get close enough so I could finish him off with a huge roundhouse kick to his head. I did that kick in my dream and what I actually did was kick the wall near my bed, jamming my big toe against the wall.

I had done the same thing fighting some bad guys a week before, damaging my same toe against the same wall. It was just starting to feel better until last night. If this keeps up my toe will never heal.

Will my nightmares ever end?
