DILD

This occurred during a long nap. All of the recent dream fragments before it were FA's with me trying to wake up. Mostly I couldn't open my eyes and if I went back to sleep in the dream, I would FA into the same situation.

Also of note, I was able to get around my usual flying problem because my target was moving ahead of me.

For a period of time we were driving fast down this mountain pass. I was not driving, but I could see a car ahead of us barrel into a turn and hit the guard rail. I told the driver to slow down. We hit the rail at the apex of the turn, but it didn't have much of an impact. It was like Grand Theft Auto where you can turn and use the walls to help you complete it.

I was walking down the street of some town. There are a bunch of cars to my left in some traffic. I small, dark green hatch-back starts to maneuver strangely. I can tell it is trying to take off. I stop and look. It lifts off the ground and I yell, "Hey you can't fly in MY dream! I am the flying police...." I look to take off after the car but there is a ceiling of tree branches over the entire road. It is a thick mesh. I continue my statement, "....but I am out of my jurisdiction."

I run to the side walk and the trees end. I spot the car in the sky and launch. I feel the strong pull of acceleration. The car is really far ahead, but I am gaining steadily. When I start to get close, it banks to the left and dips back down. I give chase. I realize that the back bumper is just out of my reach--around 2 yards. I try to use a spider web to pull it to me. It works and I grab the bumper (I didn't really see the web but the car shot back into my hand). I used some angular leverage and hurl the car back to the ground with all my force. I lose the dream with a fairly satisfied feeling.

DEILD

I had a series of dreams that took place at the same setting in a row. I became lucid in the first or second, and I was able to either DEILD or DILD rapidly in each. I am not sure if I fully woke up in between all of them, or if the dream just "restarted". I forgot a few in the middle; here are the ones I remember.

The initial dream started with a group of people my age helping out the middle school theater departments. I had to help out with Brooks and Julian. I was walking up a ramp with Ben and Jack. I saw that Brendan was behind me, so I called to the other guys because he had been gone for awhile. Jack said he already saw Brendan and we waved and moved on.

I became lucid at the top of the stairs, and I tell my friend that this is a dream. I fly to the top of a light post and hang on. I do a few more short distance flights and lose the dream.

I am in the same place, and I meet with a girl and we get into a giant dump truck. I am thinking of doing things with her, but I play it off like I was trying to show her dumping the truck load (rimshot). I push the button and lose the dream.

I start at the top of the ramp again. Some people are getting into a car, so I get into the back left seat. It turns out there are 3 rows, like a station wagon. There are 3 people in the back 2 rows. I get in and say, "guess what? This is a dream! We can do whatever we want!" I look back and I see Lindsay V. in the back right corner. She says," No, this is MY dream." I am shocked. Is this another dreamer? She was in one of my previous non-lucids at this location. She was wearing a white sox hoodie, and I was deciding if I should wear the identical one I have. I look to the back seat and mention the hoodie. She never saw me in it, but I told her about it, hoping she would remember in real life.

The car is being driven by Margaret H., and we are going down Evans by DU. I am feeling the dream start to fade again and this time I remembered a lucid pill. I look in one pocket and only find some powder. I eat it anyway; it doesn't help. I put my finger under my nose (like I was going to stop myself from sneezing) and for some reason that stabilizes the dream a bit. I reach into the other pocket and find a pill. I break it open and eat the powder inside. I am feeling good now.

I reach both arms out and raise them slowly. The car begins to take off from the ground. Margaret doesn't have much of a reaction. We are flying over some prairie near the mountains. I dip my shoulders to the left and the car banks. I open the door and reach out to touch the water we are flying over. We straighten back up for a bit. I do another hand motion and the car corkscrews upside-down. I jump off my seat and land on the inside of the roof. There is a large amount of head room. I can crouch and easily clear the passengers heads so I do the russian "hut-hut" dance. The other passengers laugh. I then try a backflip. But right after I jump, Margaret reverts the car and I land on my head in my seat. I lose the dream soon after.
