    Fragment of Dreams

    1. 2017_08_05 (maybe) Band audition, weird guitars

      by , 08-16-2017 at 02:35 AM
      For some reason I was going to audition for a band. I remember riding with them in the back of a van for a while. When we got there it was a really rustic cabin with lots of strangely made guitars. They were all dark brown and not damp, but the whole dream was just dimly lit. I found one that looked like a telecaster, and started to try to play it, but it had pieces of dry wood glued all over the fretboard.

    2. 2017_08_13 Faded money and overly nice weather

      by , 08-16-2017 at 02:29 AM
      I was in a library and found a box on a bottom shelf with some weirdly faded money. I found more in a few different places and was hiding it, and trying to get away with having it. Eventually I was going down a gravel road and ended up wanting to go put it back since I felt bad.

      Something about moving to North Carolina and I didn't like that weather was always the same. It was always blue skies and really pretty, never raining or any bad weather. It sucked but it kinda didn't. It was me and somebody else, and we were looking at the scenery, the trees and everything looked really nice.

    3. 2017-08-12 Standard chase/escape, and an interesting one I don't remember

      by , 08-14-2017 at 05:38 AM
      Pretty normal adventure/escape kind thing, not particularly violent, just getting away. Fun dream, I don't remember much detail.

      After that I had a nice long dream, but I started thinking about WL before I could get a handle on it. I just remember that it was good.

    4. 2017-08-09 Fragments: Investigation, dreamlets, and a parking lot

      by , 08-09-2017 at 02:35 PM
      This was the end of a dream, a lot of people were being questioned. Lots of people in rooms with big windows in them. I was part of it somehow, but I wasn't doing the questioning. Some kind of interrogations, but not torture or anything nasty, just trying to find something out.

      As I was going back to sleep I was having a lot of really shallow daydreams or something like them. There was kind of a narrative that was supposed to be going on in them, and I could go with the flow or kind of stop and not do what I was supposed to be doing. Most of them were in an office setting, similar to the dream I had finished above.

      Walking out of a building following a kid, his mom and someone else. We were in a parking lot and there was bark dust around. His mom was asking if he needed someone to go with him and he said that that he did. We cut across through some little shrubs into another parking lot. I forgot the main point of the dream.

    5. 2017-08-03 Dream Fragments, Battle and an Autopsy

      by , 08-04-2017 at 04:43 AM
      I had a dream about some kind of A-Team type techno-thriller stuff. I was in a dry grassy field, running with a gun, looking around. This wasn't a short dream, but I only remember that brief part and the overall situation.

      Another fragment about half a body on an autopsy table, a woman cut in half. There was a solemn feeling to the scene. It might have tied into the first dream.

      I like the adventure dreams, but I can kind of remember not liking my dreams as much after I started watching too many CSI type crime shows with nasty stuff in them.

      It was a big part of why I gave up the lucid dreaming project last year.
    6. 2017-07-19 Cafeteria cheating, weird chemical extraction

      by , 07-19-2017 at 01:58 PM
      Cafeteria Cheating:

      I was in a situation where I was being helped by my boss to either get free food that I wasn't entitled to, or more than I was supposed to be getting. He was kinda on board at the beginning, but then he said something about not really wanting to be getting caught doing it. I started feeling bad about it, and then work up.


      Chemical Extraction:

      In some food product or other mundane item, someone discovered that you could extract some potentially dangerous chemical could be extracted from it. This dream carried on for a while, but all I remember is seeing some guy at a table who was apparently carrying out the extraction.


      Shiba Inu:
      Someone had a dog that I wanted to play with. I was a bit worried that it would not like me, but it didn't get mad at me for petting it, so that was pretty cool.

      It's been a long time since I made any entries, and I didn't do an immediate journal, this is just what I am remembering in the morning.

    7. 11-06 Sci Fi setting fragmen

      by , 11-09-2016 at 10:48 PM
      A yard, a shipyard or something, a sci-fi setting. We were fighting different kinds of robots and maybe some aliens. It had a Start Trek vibe to it. There was a shape shifter guy was gloating about having beaten us in some way. We didn't interact with him directly, but that was a scene with him just saying that he'd won. There was something negative going wrong. I'd done something wrong somehow and was driving around.

    8. 10-30 Wandering around and brief lucidity

      by , 10-30-2016 at 05:37 PM
      I was walking around in a neighborhood looking for something. Someone said something about a defense system, but I knew they meant a security system. It was a nice neighborhood, nice cars and lawns. I ended up in a house on couch sleeping. I remember a short snippet of a guy trying to sleep in a bookcase with the wall kinda crumbling.

      Then the scene changed and I was seeing an a guy in an orange suit, a coverall like a prisoner would wear. He was just running, he wasn't a prisoner, he just had the gear on. I knew it was a dream, so I decided that I wanted be in that scene, and I was there. I kind of dropped into it like I jumped down and landed. I didn't really see much of myself. I looked up at a ledge that led to a parking lot or some other flat area. I was on asphalt only a little ways below it. I was still thinking about this being a dream. I thought about doing an RC, but I just pulled myself up. Then I felt like I was tangled up with my physical body, so I tried to get free by rolling or something. At that point I lost that scene. I had some blurry vision of trying to roll away from my body. I could hear what sounded like me moving in my bed and that woke me up. It really reminded me of my first almost WILD when I woke myself up trying to get into the scene that had formed. At least got to be in this one and do a couple of things.

      I guess that was my first lucid, such as it was. It was a MILD after yet another failed WILD. I'll take it.

    9. 10-20 to 10-23 Fragments mostly

      by , 10-29-2016 at 05:20 AM
      10/20/2016
      10:30 – 6:30ish

      Something woke me up and I tried to WILD. Saw amazing HI for a while. It worked up to the point of seeing a scene form, but then I woke up.

      Some random dream happened, but I don't remember it now. Kinda overshadowed by the other thing

      10/22/2016
      horrible sleep
      1:00 – 3:00
      7:00 – 8:00
      9:00 – 12:40 or so

      Explained something that I thought was real to some DC, a fight of some kind, but then realized that it didn't
      really happen. Pretty realistic conversation, but that's about all I remember.


      10/23/2016

      Kind of the tail end of something else. Some person from a dream something. They were trying to get interested in some gear they had. Without getting sick. They kept getting interrupted or something

      Kinda like a D&D thing, really meta-gaming. During the game people inside the game were arguing about one version versus another version, and how it would be different if they were playing a different version. Like it wouldn't be like this. They were arguing about this in character though and still arguing about that. It's funny now, but it was serious at the time. It was really snowy, with different types of characters. Very lifelike. There were different types of people not just humans. I think there were halflings.

    10. 9-17 to 9-20

      by , 10-29-2016 at 04:59 AM
      To start off, I'm going to transfer some DJ entries here, so there will be more than one day a lot of times, since they can be pretty light on info:

      9/17/2016:
      11:00 - 8:00
      - motocross/something on track, no sound, floaty, reentered
      same one with no vehicle for a short time
      • driving with no vehicle (ACTION)



      - Chicago police guy tries to get me to buy something for
      hockey tickets while showing website, really vivid, scrolling
      around. He said Red Wings tickets for some reason
      • wrong team for the city (CONTEXT)



      9/18/2016:
      10:30 - 6:00 (wk at 2:37)
      - heroes game, losing, new map
      - tried DEILD after jolting awake, some HI, but tried to
      RC too early I think. I did the nose pinch RC and just
      was awake
      <break>
      - getting back to sleep took a while, lost attention and
      just fell asleep, no chance to interact with transition


      9/19/2016:
      10:00 - 5:30 (wk at 2:15) (5 or 6)
      - heroes type game, more vivid running around
      - same, people mixed in
      • Not an actual game that I know about (CONTEXT)


      <break>
      - kinda talking to people or something, a couple
      sessions of that


      9/20/2016:
      10:00 - 4:15 (wk at sometime) (about 2)
      7:30 - 10:30 (2)
      - don't remember before the break
      <break>
      - pretty long, maybe SciFi salvage or something
      at the end was eating something greasy and good
      while being nagged about it by some female co worker
      • Sci Fi job setting (CONTEXT)
      • Felt the nagging pretty keenly (INNER AWARENESS)


      <wake at 4ish>
      - tried to avoid re-entering that last one to avoid
      being nagged and ended up not being able to get
      back to sleep mostly due to thinking about WL
      <break>
      - computer stuff of some kind. Something broke
      that we pretty much knew was going to break
      but didn't do anything about (had a deja vu later in the week)
      - back to the same setting, don't remember what
      happened, just slice of life I think
