Dreaming in CoD4

The past two nights I have crashed and immediately started dreaming like I was playing the game, Call of Duty 4. They have been crazy intense dreams filled with constant running, guns, copters, and knives. It was a frantic hurried dream. Most of my dreams are usually some form of deja vu or about surfing so this new line of dreams has me off balance. Why am I dreaming about being in this game...am I obsessed with it or is it a vision of things to come. Erie. Of course having a brand new Sony Bravia set on vivid might have something to do with it as well.

I have no idea what it is like to be at war. Saving Private Ryan brought the reality and intensity of being under fire to unofrtuantely realistic levels. Would I stay calm in a fire fight or go charging in like an idiot. Playing CoD4 I find myself charging like an idiot.

dreams are only the half of it. right after playing we'll find ourselves ducking past windows and subconsciously aiming for pedestrians on L st. is there a support group for this?

in a real war clearly i would be the one shooting at the ground in entirely the wrong direction. while hopping at the same time, i'm sure.

There is no "I" in "team".

Hee hee. We need to practice team work. I will NEVER forget the clan called "[PMS]". Those ladies tore right through us like a freight train. Man that was embarrassing.

I was thinking of a clan name for us, but then after last night I don't think I want anyone to know we are a team. Hee hee. If anything our clan name should be "2 dollar whores". So at least when we receive a beat down it won't be as embarrassing. Besides the name would be fitting in how we always seemed to get royally F'd.

I too would be the asshole charging right into the middle of the street, only to be pegged by a sniper. I have no patience sitting in a building waiting for someone like me to stumble into my veiwfinder.

Those (PMS) girls were totally scary, and they creamed the best of us. We would completely suck, and we need more practice!!!

A support group would also come in handy. I'm uncertain as I why this damn game is so addicting, but...running on a mere 5 hours of sleep, I would think that I could forgo a game for JUSTONENIGHT, but I can't. Help, please. On top of that, my boss was escorted off base because he was talking about a 50 caliber sniper rifle. We all need help. HELP!!!
