Reading With My Eyes Shut

My Notes
Non-lucid
Lucid
Awake

I tried the Iso tone again. I tried to WILD, but I have a sore throat (the result of a cold) and couldn't stay still. WBTB also failed me, unfortunately.

I'm at a small town. I don't remember who, but a man is telling me the government has collapsed, and that the people will go out of control. I assure him that it's a nice town, and the people are smart enough to know rioting won't help them. We pass an old white two-story house. My friend –who I think was Joel– next to me says it had been destroyed once, then it was rebuilt. I think to myself, if it were rebuilt, then it's no longer an old building.
I'm now inside the building. Jennifer Aniston and a man who looks remarkably like Chuck Norris are sitting on a single mattress on the bare floor. The man is saying very romantic things to her. She seems eventually won over, and then he asks her to marry him. When he asks this, he sounds very pathetic and desperate. She obviously is unimpressed. She gets up and walks away. Before she gets to the door, the man stops her and tells her how the house is worth millions, and that they're both rich. She agrees to marry him.
I think to myself that it would be an empty marriage she was only in for the money.

The second dream was just a few fragments. I'm at my friend's old house. He also has his friend over. I had just bought a new G Shock digital watch. I press the button to turn on the lights. Unlike a normal watch, the lights come out of four lights on the sides. I have the watches hands. They glow in the dark, and they need to be screwed in somehow. I notice a black screw I could use, but I'm nervous I'll break the watch.

I don't know how well WILDing will go tonight. A sore through really screws with concentration, plus I have to constantly swallow.

My Notes

Awake

Okay, so this is my first DJ update in months. All my previous entries are archived at mattbrox.co.nr. There are 101 entries in there I believe. It's password protected, so to view an entry just add /"dream number" to view that dream. I've noticed in the months I haven't kept track of my dreams, that every night I would always remember at least 1 dream. I've just yesterday (the date this was added) began to start lucid dreaming again, and this time I'm going to try to WILD.

My first dream was very brief; all I remember is being in a large shopping centre, and a dark-skinned lady gave me a cooked piece of meat. I was incredibly thankful to her in an attempt to be polite.

The second dream was mostly just fragments. I remember being with my friend, Joel. We were walking toward a large building with roman architecture. The inside was completely large, long and empty. It contained a large red rug stretching across the floor. At the end of the rug were some small steps that led to a room. We went into that room, and as I passed I brushed my hand against a strange dragon figure that had been carved into the wall. As I brushed it I marvelled at the roman architecture.
I don't remember much about the inside of the room, only it was dark and that there game rooms in there which made me slightly nostalgic. After the rooms I remember being outside. The grass was dying, and there were rusty roller-coaster tracks going in and out of the building. One of the tracks was yellow.
Underneath the were two people: Simon Pegg and a random DC. Simon was saying something about how new expansions to the building would upset the community.
Me, Joel and Nick Frost were next to a grey building that was also deteriorating. In the distance we could see the building I'd just left. The yellow roller-coaster rail seemed to be flinging about, and Simon and the DC were arguing. We all shrugged it off. One of us had called them something nasty, but I don't remember what.

I awoke to the sound of my alarm. I'm using a free phone app (not iPhone) called LucidWeaver, and it has an alarm which wakes me up and then turns itself off. I remember when WILDing you need to stay completely still, so I did. I was comfortable because I was still in my sleeping position. I remembered all the tips and just lay there. I began to feel a slight numbness sweep over me. After about 5 or so minutes my phone went off again. It wouldn't stop, so I was forced to turn it off manually. I was annoyed to find that I had accidently set the normal alarm on before I'd gone to bed.

Better luck tonight I suppose.
