When I was last asleep, and I think was my waking dream just before I got up and out of bed, was of me being injured and I have been wondering ever since why I specifically saw the actor Eric Stoltz give me a United States military Bronze Star medal and I was lying on what seemed to be the ground. I have struggled with the sense though that I was actually in a hospital bed but in the dream I was clearly out in the field somewhere and as part of a US military operation. There were other people about but he is the only specific person I recall. He handed me the medal and I remember telling him that I would give it back when I got my own medal. Someone, a person that was never actually established in the dream, seemed to suggest that I would actually receive the US Navy Cross medal. In the dream, I had been injured after enemy forces hit me with a bayonet in the chest and as I think back about it now, because of where I was hit in the sternum, of which I was aware of sutures from surgery, should have been fatal. Ever since waking up though, I have been thinking that dream actually represents Kerry Burgess in the hospital after being shot in the shoulder. He was receiving a commendation and I don't know what that would have been but I guess that commendation was the equivalent. There was another detail I wanted to note here but now that detail slips my mind.

A dream just before waking up that I only now feel compelled to note in my journal so much of the sequence of the dream is a lot more vague. The basic dream was that I was wearing a U.S. Navy uniform. I seemed to be wearing the U.S. Navy tropical white uniform. At one point, I was walking up a set of stairs inside a building and I looked over to my right should and I saw the silver bars of a U.S. Navy lieutenant on the epulet of the black jacket I was wearing. But there was also an element during the dream that my name was Kerry Burgess and I had a document that had my name on it and it suggested that Kerry Burgess was going as the identity of another enlisted U.S. Navy sailor. I am not certain how that specific perception fits into the sequence of the scenes in the dream that I remember. The sequence seems to be that I have walked up the stairs and I think that was a bar on a U.S. military base that I was at. I had taken off my jacket and I guess I must have seen myself in a mirror because I was aware that I was wearing a large number of U.S. military ribbons on my uniform and I noted specifically that I was wearing a ribbon for one Medal of Honor and a ribbon for one Navy Cross medal. I had several other rows of ribbons and I remember thinking to myself that I was not wearing all the other ribbons I had been awarded that are mostly for service in the U.S. Navy fleet although I cannot remember thinking of any specific ribbons and the associated medal, if any. I remember drinking a shot of whiskey and I was also drinking a beer. A woman was talking to me but that part is vague. Maybe she was the waitress, although I was standing at the bar. The next part seems to be after I had left the bar and I was back in some building that I guess was an office and residential building there on the base. I saw a people around but there was only one person I recognized and he was busy at some paperwork and we didn't say anything to each other as I passed his desk. Then I am in some other room and I have this very vague feeling that I had been climbing over boxes in the room and because it is with a less vague observation that the room was very cluttered with storage boxes and filing cabinets and other storage containers. I quickly found the box I was looking for though and I took out of the box the Trident badge that is awarded to all U.S. Navy SEAL's.

Today especially I think I remember being hit in the chest by gunfire and I remember that feeling of blood accumulating in my lungs.

The zombies are listening to all my privacy, such as my research and notes I write on "My Computer," so those bad guys are only getting stronger.

I would find the idea easy to state that during that five-year period I was convinced I was the living embodiment of Thomas Reagan that I knew somewhere deep in my mind that was not true. So I won't dwell on that too much because what would really now be the point of saying "I knew it." I can think of some examples of thoughts I had that were consistent with a tiny part of my mind that I guess was trying to resist that overpowering force in my mind confusing me about my true identity.
The dialog referenced below is written from my perspective when I become a time traveler and begin traveling backwards in time.
I write about that notion now because I have been thinking in the past few minutes and longer about the impending zombie apocalypse that will literally emerge first on this planet here in King County Washington State. I was thinking about how my power of resistance to those zombies will be primarily in the fact that I will be invisible to their zombie senses. To them, I will be no different than a tree or if I am walking around then I am no different than an automobile that has no person at the wheel or sitting in the car while it rolls along the road. I will also have another self-defense mechanism in that my presence will divert away the zombies. The necessity of that self-defense mechanism is that it keeps me from getting trapped someplace that is surrounded by a large pack of zombies. For instance, if there are non-infected human beings inside the building I am in, in downtown Seattle, for instance, then there is the possibility that ten thousand zombies could congregate along every door and window of that building and even though the zombies cannot sense my presence I would still be trapped in the building. So if I come close the zombies then they will divert away from my presence.
Also, the virus or whatever it is that causes the zombie outbreak to literally happen here in King County Washington State will change over time. The second stage is airborne and the non-infected human beings contract the plague by breathing the air that contains the plague delivery mechanism. Then, after a point has been reached where the number of literal zombies exceeds a certain number then the plague delivery mechanism becomes transmitted by the telepathy of the brains of the zombies. Other than me, no one in King County Washington State can hide from the zombies after that point.

Space Shuttle Astronauts Pedal Around World
October 30, 1993 From Associated Press
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. The space shuttle Columbia's astronauts got an orbital workout Friday as they pedaled at full speed around the world to see how their bodies were holding up after nearly two weeks in space.
One by one, the crew members worked their way from 30% of maximum exercise capacity on the shuttle's stationary cycle to 60% and then to 100%. They breathed into a tube connected to a gas analyzer as they cycled; their heart rates and blood pressures also were monitored.
"This may not feel so good to do, but it's very important in understanding the absolute capacity of our cardiovascular system to deliver oxygen to the tissues of the body, particularly the muscles," astronaut-physician David Wolf said before hopping on the cycle.

I've had several dreams where something was wrong with my chest, as though I had a broken bone in my chest, a broken rib in my upper chest.
