Dreams (June)

I've noticed lately that I've been having a lot of dreams about traveling. Which isn't much of a surprise since I leave the country in less than two weeks and won't be back until early January. I've had dreams where I miss my train or plane, where my family is busy chattering away while I panic. The latest dream: I had a flight from Geneva, Switzerland to Sydney, Australia. But the two cities had gone to war and I was very nervous about flying. Potentially the most unlikely two countries to ever go to war, and completely unrelated to my actual travel plans. Strange.

Secondly, in a lot of my dreams lately I have trouble walking. Yup, my legs literally collapse under me after a few moments. It's not until they do that I remember how much effort it took to walk - almost like a feeling of walking underwater. They also don't just collapse, but usually I end up on my knees, as if my legs have just been chopped off (when even the dream they are just behind me like a normal person walking on their knees. A lot of times I'm carrying a backpack too, traveling still. I suppose this is all from my new show inserts I got last week. Since I hadn't taken care of my old ones, my IT band on my knee was giving me hell. Turns out I have to break in the new ones (wearing shoes I don't usually wear with the inserts for x amount of hours a day) and thus cannot run/heavily work out for two weeks. And I really really would like to be working out right now.
