Speed-run ToTM and a dare dream, one-shot killing a turkey and brief chat with a DC (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I believe this is possibly the lamest ToTM I have ever worked on, and to be honest, I did not even see this coming. I have been coding for a new dream journal software like a maniac... and well, every time I woke up in the middle of the night, all I had in my mind was a bunch of code (that I wont paste here lol) and yet, I got a lucid dream. I naturally woke up around 7:30am (alarm clock triggers at 8:00am) and I was laying on my back, just relaxing to wait for the clock. After a while I found myself driving down the street. I was in what I believe to be a manual transmission car, as I had to switch gears manually. I got inside a building and I was driving down the stars, but now, I was riding a red bike:







I was driving through aisles and up and down the stairs, and yet, I had a manual transmission strick to switch gears, realizing how it could be even possible... realizing that it was impossible for a bike and realizing that my car just turned into a bike and I was indoors, so I turned lucid.

I was surprised by the dream, and feared that anytime soon the alarm clock was going to trigger. I saw a small child in the middle of a big empty room and I asked him:
- "What are you grateful for?"
- Chocolate! - he replied.

I was like, okay... and then realized that asking that was not a ToTM.
- What is my name? - I asked him.
- Manolo, like the supermarket - He replied (That is not my name nor I have seen a super market named like that.

I recalled I had to tell him that it was a dream, so:
- This is a dream - I exalted.
- No, I am awake, we are not dreaming - He replied.

I rose my hand and showed it to him, claiming we were in a dream. My hand looked perfectly fine, five perfect fingers... so I was like, what the hell. I looked at my hand again, perfect... another false positive. I knew we were dreaming because of the bike, I looked a third time and then, two of my fingers were overlaying each other and they were like holograms. I realized that the child was doing his own business, but since he replied, I was done.

I then decided to walk backwards, as I believed it was a dare. Simple task... I walked a good 50 steps backwards, but nothing out of the blue happened.

I then went ahead to remember the other ToTM without much success... so much coding, so little reading I told to myself. I believed that the bonus task was to steal the turkey that the President saved and decide its fate. I figured if I tried to fly outside the building and look for the White House I was not going to make it in time and the alarm clock would ruin it. I pretended that behind a door I was going to find the White House.

I opened the door and I could see grass and heard birds chirping. I was able to see the White House (even though it was a mix of the white house and Congress, looking something like this







I saw the President, but it was not Obama. It was a made up African American dude, dressed in business attire. The First lady was next to him, but also made up. I think she looked Chinese. There was a turkey standing next to them, so I figured it was the turkey they saved. I started feeling my cats in bed and started to feel I was waking up rapidly, so I had to do something... I just grabbed the turkey's neck and said, "Your fate is to die." I started to strangle it and little after, I woke up. Since the dare is to decide the fate, I'd say I completed it, as I have decided it would die. I wouldn't have made the choice though if I wasn't waking up, I would have done something much more exciting. This is somewhat short entry, this dream felt quick, very quick.

Futuristic bike with quartz tech (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was at a car dealer and I was about to buy a car, but for some reason, they did not have my car available so they lend me a bike to ride meanwhile. The bike had two pedals like if it was a car, and also it had the regular handles all bikes have. The bike was all black and it had a huge engine.







I drove all to some other place and I was talking with a friend and showing him my bike. I realized that it was futuristic and it had several screens, about four or five:







My friend told me that the bike was equipped with some high tech stuff, most of it was banned and I could get in trouble if busted, but the bike itself could conceal everything and no one would notice it. I told him to teach me about the features it had, seems he appear to be knowledgeable. He pullwed a quartz chip and showed it to me:



He mentioned that I could hack into any electronic device with the chip and then, placed it back inside my bike, behind one of the screens. I was pretty amazing to what my bike could do and wondered if I had to pay for it or it was a free compensation from the delay from the dealer. I definitely did not want to part from it, so I took another drive.

As I was driving, I had a huge time getting there. The bike did not accelerate properly and there was a lot of traffic on my way home. I realized that there were eldery people playing cards, sitting in front of several tables that were in the middle of the road.

Crashing road madness (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was driving my car at night and needed to enter a freeway that was pretty packed. I saw several cars that were crashing, but everything was in slow motion, because the car's were getting very damaged.

Suddenly, a black bike got behind me and started to honk. The bike hitted my car a few times and damaged it also.

The bike got in front of me and tried to force me to crash with him, getting on my way and braking, but I avoided him. I decided to get off the freeway and call the policy.

Nastiest driving storm (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I needed to go to work or somewhere else. I entered my car and started to drive. It was day and there was a horrible ice storm. I could see all the cars on the street, crushing several times. Everything was like in slow motion, but the crashes looked kinda bad.

I was driving, very uncomfortably, as the cars behind me were not driving as careful as the should, however, my car never got hit.

My wife was riding a red bike. She went into the worst traffic area, where the road was almost sunken. I saw how the whole bike was covered with icy water. My wife ran to me. She was mad at me and blamed me for what happened. I got mad at her and ignored her trashing.

After a while, my wife picked up the bike and brought it to me. The bike's engine was still working fine.
