Thread: Prospective Memory Training Exercise - Silly Sentences To Help Remember Targets

I have been reading Stephen LaBerge's Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming, and *trying* to hit those my targets every day. I was pretty hopeless the first week, and this week has not been much better. So, I decided to try and make it easier for me to recall the targets by making a silly sentence I can easily recall and use to remind myself throughout the day.

Yesterday I took the Tuesday targets:

The next time I see a traffic light
The next time I hear music
The next time I throw something in the garbage
The next time I hear laughter

and made this sentence: I laugh when I hear the music of traffic lights! Such garbage!

I did miss the first instance of music, but it seemed to help.

Today, Wednesday, I made a silly sentence from the targets today:
The next time I turn on a television or radio
The next time I see a vegetable
The next time I see a red car
The next time I handle money

When I turn on the radio or TV, I see a vegetable driving a red convertible car waving dollar bills at everyone it passes.

I've hit two already.

I'd love to hear suggestions from other dreamers for silly sentences to make this exercise more accessible.
