force fields

Apparently, my subconscious thinks that I complain too much. It could be worse. I could have evil soldiers standing over the top of me, dependent on the goodwill of an almost complete stranger who I just untied, but who is not really on my side either. I could, further, be trying to stifle a scream and look like I am not in complete pain, although the sadistic evil soldier has just driven a knife through the nerve bundle in my hand to prove that I am really strung out on drugs. In other words, it could be much worse. Either that, or my subconscious is very morbid and twisted. I'm not sure which is the best interpretation of my dream.
