Last night some whacko beat me up while I was in bed.
Nothing is broken, but I'll be seriously bruised for a while. My left shoulder blade took the most of the beating when I had huddled face down, with legs tucked underneath and arms wrapped around my head and ribs for protection. So it hurts when I try to use my left arm.
The dood underneath my bunk was engaged with a conversation with a dood across the bunk from me (no he's just a visitor on the bunk from another bunk couple rows down). While the dood underneath me was talking to him, he was shaking the bunk by moving around and woke me up, this went on for 10-15 minutes before I decided to get up to find out what was all this shaking was all about and I then realized what it was about. I tried to ask the guy to please let me go back asleep (not only that, he was violating the missions' rules on no talking and must be in bed during bedtime hours), he went nuts and beat me up. I guess since I can't talk well due to my deafness and using body gestures to try and convey my message that I needed sleep. Guess he didn't like what I was trying to say.
Anyway, after the beating was over, I went downstairs to notify the overnight security guy assigned for the night and told him what had transpired. He called Dennis upstairs on the radio who is the director of the missions.
After I had explained to Dennis what had happened, he asked me to go to another room while he talked to the guy underneath my bunk and to get his name since I had no idea who he was. Then Dennis calls me back and tells me I can go back upstairs for he was ejecting the guy from the missions and is banned for one year.
Then today I went to the hospital early in the morning to make sure that I am ok and nothing is broken or fractured.
Had barely any sleep all night because of the pain.
The only places I am bruised was he first took a couple of hard jabs across my left face before I dived down to protect myself and did several blows on my left shoulder blade. He tried to pull me off the bunk, but I was huddled too good for him to be able to yank me off.
Had a nice night, NOT!
