Lots of dreams recently that I keep meaning to post about but forgetting. But here's one.
I dreamt that I was watching the first baseball game of the season and the Red Sox had a new third(?)-baseman. He was actually a player they had let go and then picked up again despite injuries. Anyway, on the first play of the game, he made a good play but fell and twisted his leg badly. He was lying there in pain while the manager and team doctor checked him out.
Suddenly I *was* that player, and the manager and doctor were basically saying that I had reinjured myself in the same place that had previously caused the team to let me go, and now there was no hope for me. They basically just walked off to rejoin the game, and left me lying there on the grass immobile and in pain. I wanted to call out to them, "at least straighten out my injured leg for me!" but for some reason I couldn't.
Weird. It sounds a lot more disturbing when I type it out that way than it was in the actual dream. In the moment, it was sad but had a kind of fatalistic air, like, "you knew this was coming...."
