Scrutinizing who I be

It seemed to be a doctor's office. I don't remember what kind of doctor, but I suspect he had something to do with functions relating to the head. No, not a head doctor, although I'm sure I could use one right now. And, I don't remember a whole lot about the rest of this "examination". The most vivid image from this dream, however, is that of examining my inner ear.

Now, I have had issues with things like excessive wax in the ear canal, so I wasn't surprised to see a similar story when I looked inside. Eeew! Sorry. But here's the weird thing. I was looking inside my own ear. And it was as large as a tunnel, no pun intended. I mean, I was walking around for what seemed to be an awfully long eternity. But there were huge pieces of earwax and other filth inside, stuck to what seemed to be select spots all around. It wasn't like a rat-infested sewer or anything, don't get me wrong. It was more like a Ninja Turtles kind of sewer with the odd section a bit dinged and missing a brick or two, except that instead of bricks missing it was a bit of crud that stuck out. Few and far between, you get the picture. And, after that unnecessarily graphic description, I just wanted to say that it was very weird and I didn't quite know what to make of taking a closer look at myself...in the ear! Well, now that I think about it, thank God for it being the ear, eh? ;-)

The first explanation I could come up with was that I had lots of little bits of things that I had to deal with in my life, and because the ear was all I could remember, well, that maybe I had issues with listening to people and should make a better effort of it. Or, should it be that I wasn't listening to myself? Typing this out right now, it's rather scary how apt this interpretation is to the current state of affairs that I call a life. But weird all the same. Why me? WHY ME???
