Gonna post a new entry as soon as possible to get my recall back on track.
Aeolar's Dream I am in this building, with a bunch of other people. A woman walks out of a door with a cute little baby. She has a loving look on her face. She sets the baby down in a carriage out in the hall, and walks away to take care of something else. A scientist then comes up and kills the baby by smashing it with a heavy object. I watched as this took place, horrified. I began to cry, and a lot of other people do as well. I swear revenge against these cruel people. I gather up as many people I can who believe in what is right. I tell them that we should be known as the "All-Americans" and paint ourselves blue. We all go out onto the battlefield. We see the bad guys. They are on horses, and instead of wielding shields, they have bronze statues of General Custer, which blocks some of the bullets we are shooting at them. There are about 100 of us, and there are thousands of them. There are just too many enemies. 2 women ride up to our front lines, not wanting to fight. A blonde haired woman, and a brown haired woman. Earlier in this dream, this blonde haired girl was on the internet, saying how she wanted to free someone, but didn't know that the man was now 60 years old. An old woman was there as well. ------------------------------ I remember being with another guy, and then going to a white van in a parking lot. I opened the door, and saw a man in there. I think I knew him as Shrader, but he could have been someone else. He showed me something on a computer terminal that is really hard to explain. It was like a birds eye view of this area and we were searching for something. It was reminiscent of the Matrix. I look up at the room around me, and it looks like a sanctuary or something, maybe a secret lair. But the 3 of us were the only people there. --------------------- I am a special soldier in the army. I think that I am comparable to a Spartan in Halo. We get deployed in the craziest way. We all (about 5 of us) have to get on top of an SR-71 Blackbird, attached by grappling hooks, and then get launched into space. Now, while we're in space, the craziest thing happened. The world was literally in a bottle, and we had to pull out the cork in order to re enter orbit. We did, and began hurtling toward our target. We actually survived the fall and began walking to this house. There was a balloon that had a "Word of the Day" on it, which I read but don't remember what it was. When we got to the house, I looked in the distance and saw a pack of wolves rather close to me. Immediately I ran to the other side of the building. It seemed as though the others in my group were oblivious to the wolves, and the wolves were oblivious to them. I think that's why the wolves started to chase me. We played Cat and Mouse, more like Dog and Human, but they eventually caught up to me. 2 wolves latched onto either thumb, and it felt kind of strange. I yelled for the other soldiers to shoot them, and they seemed confused at first, but they did shoot them. I watched to my amazement as my mangled ground beef thumbs regenerated back to normal, with barely a scar. ---------- I am standing on this rock ledge, overlooking a feast taking place. This group of all women made an all fruit dinner for a very large group of people. I made my way down there, and checked out the event. There were paper plated to eat from, but they were soaked with pineapple juice. Dream skip. I am talking to this important old lady. She says she lost something, and I go out and try to find it in this store/hostel place. This lady supposedly runs the group of all females. No more recall.
I was at gamescom with a few friends, so I had no way of updating my DJ. I'm a bit foggy on the details since this dream is from 2 days ago. This was after being at gamescom for a day. I'm walking through one of the massive halls at gamescom in cologne with both of my friends. The big camera I'm wearing around my neck is quite heavy and annoying to carry around, but I definitely want to make some good photos. Suddenly I notice a booth right next to me. It's pretty huge and I nearly walked by without noticing it... how weird. The booth itself is closed off, as is common with 18+ games, you have to go inside to see what's going on. Outside, the booth is covered in surreal paintings which I like a lot, and on top of it there's a huge led sign saying "DREAMS". How interesting, there's a game about dreams? How come I've never heard of it? I proceed to take a picture of the booth. I have some trouble using the camera... it acts weird, but I end up getting my shot. Then I notice I've somehow lost both of my friends... how annoying! It's going to be a pain to find them in this crowd. I just remain still for a few seconds, hoping they'll turn around when they notice they've lost me. But they don't... I can't see them anywhere. Annoyed, I take out my mobile to call one of my friends in order to meet back up again. Unfortunately, I have trouble navigating my contacts list. The names appear to be out of order and I have trouble reading names. I decide that my mobile is bugged and put it back into my pocket. I initially wanted to restart it, but I just noticed that there is no queue to get into the dreaming booth, but oddly enough, a lot of people are approaching it. I quickly get in line so I can get in. I'll just reboot my phone after this and call my friends then. Inside there is more surreal art, and very weird lighting. I like it a lot though, it has a very nice and "dreamy" atmosphere to it, which is obviously what they were aiming for. In the center of the room there's a very big mirror, stretching all over the room. But I can't see any computers anywhere... What kind of game is this? Is there no demo I can try out? I overhear someone explaining the deal about "DREAMS", that it's not a game you play on a pc, it is a game you play with your mind. I get an inexplicable shiver when I hear this. He proceeds to explain about the mirror. According to him, only "dreamers" can enter the mirror. You can spot dreamers because they have no reflection in the mirror, so they can walk straight through it to the other side. Looking closely at the mirror, I can see that I have no reflection, but everyone else seems to have one. Wait... I can't believe it took me this long to notice... the clues were so obvious. I'm dreaming! The guy giving the explanations realizes that I have no reflection and starts mentioning it very cheerfully: "Ohhhhhhhhhhhh! It looks like we've got ourselves a dreamer everyone!"He approaches me, clearly wanting to interview me. Nope I think, and quickly approach the mirror. I want to know what's on the other side... I need to know, I am driven by curiosity. I walk through the mirror without resistance and exit the booth on the other side. I'm still at gamescom, but everything is different. The booths are different, the lighting is different. All games are played by dreaming, people just enter them with their mind. I am amazed by this idea and I want to try every single one of them Excited I start running towards the first game I see, but then everything darkens... Shit, I'm an idiot, why did I not stabilize and try to control my excitement? The dream ends...
Was jason stackhouse in some village. The other tribe was trying to get me and I was trying to escape. I finally escaped and started running through the forest trying to get to the other tribe. When i got there I killed the tribe leader really fast and started hoping up in the sky trying to get back to my home tribe. There were three jaguars trying to eat me but I was faster than them because I could jump really high. Body shift achieved. I woke up from that dream and didn't move. I heard loud music and amplified it by listening in. The music got consuming and I started brain squeezing. My body started pulsing with energy and I tried phantom wiggling. My hands were moving out of body. I was ready. I opened my eyes and saw out if my real eyes and my astral eyes. I did it too soon and didn't fully roll out of body. I went back into my real body. I was at school where runescape was the status of who you were. I had a low level and was lower class. They teacher treated me bad and I would keep leaving. There were giant crowds of people watching a show of some sort. The king gave me a chance so I went out and started spinning. I was doing good until another came on stage and spun with me. She really sucked and got booed off stage. The king made me leave too. I was in a computer room and thought maybe I could get my old runeacape account back. I got adams account back. I was excites to be the lead of the class. When i got back kara was sad that she would doing bad in the class so I tried to help her. I made the teacher like me and invited everyone in class to my mansion where I could convince the teacher to give us a good grade. Fragments: Sold two pairs of jeans. They were supposed to made out of a certain material but were the wrong ones. The guy who bought them wanted an explanation.

I am at safeway shopping alone. The store is pretty busy. There is a man standing with his cart. The wooden floor rips beneath him and a great white shark bits him all the way up to his torso. The shark holds on and doesn't move. The man starts to scream " not again" as this would be the third time it has happen to him. We all are standing in fear for the man but we know that the floor is not going to rip beneath any of us and no sharks are going to bite the rest of us. After a while the mans screaming subsides and he is only moaning now. He pushes his feet through the bottom of the shark and continues shopping making small quick steps. *memory laps* Im in the forest. There is a small tribe of people that live amongst the trees. I can't speak their native language but I was sent to teach them how to make wells with clean water. Apparently I knew this skill in my dream and I wasn't worried about not knowing how. The problem was that the forest was very dense and wet and there were jaguars everywhere lurking in the trees. The natives were not afraid of the jaguars but I still was. I decided to go back to the house I was going to stay in while helping the native people. It was an elegant sprawling mansion and I couldn't speak the language of the people that lived there. I was beginning to become frustrated. Me and allen for some reason are living at allens moms house again. I believe leo lives there too. Allen left in the morning and I was supposed to go to work. I couldn't find a shoe so I laid on the bed. Allen came back and said he needed a ride. We both hopped into my car. We were driving around some back roads and farms. I was late for work but I didn't care. As stopped at a farm with one farmer boy and two farmer girls. I realized that I would never be a farmer. It was getting late and we drove to Nancy's. We were gonna live there now. They cleared out a room for us and I had to blow up an air mattress. Nancy made spaghetti. It was the single most delicious plate of spaghetti I have ever tasted. She sent me and kyle on a mission to deliver some food to a poor old man in a house with two grand daughters. We had trouble finding the house. The man was deafer then shit and it was impossible to talk to him. Was driving me and dina to the grocery store. As I started downhill my oil change light came on. I got really scared and I drove back home. I asked some random guy that was dingy looking wearing a ripped up jean jacket and jeans. He was super dirty. I knew allen didn't know how to change one. I parked. He came over and was just standing around drinking a beer, looking at the inside of my car. I started to get angry, the guy was wasting my time. I noticed that in the apartments next to mine tiny creatures were dancing and circling in and out of the apartment. They were super dirty colorful and they were quietly singing a chant. I couldn't make at the words. They somewhat remind me of the aliens that appeared in one of my lucids that actually took place in that very spot. Weird since I've only encountered them those two times.
Kumara's Dream Dream fragment 1 - Something about choosing an iguana for each phase. The iguana image was very large, about calf-sized and with rippling, changing colors Dream fragments 2 - In a Mexican restaurant. Climbing a light fixture with a big bubble top, inside the bubble realizing it's the only one and doesn't go further. Climbing it by a long round tube of flimsy green plastic with tribal-style cutouts, trying to sort it out and untangle it and get inside. Also trying to fit in between the 'tines' of a metal something-or-other also hanging from the light fixture. I heard the phrase, "Protracted tectonic" and repeated it, it seemed very important to remember and write in my dream journal. WBTB I see a door, I know I am dreaming and stop and collect my intention to step into Chichen Itza when I walk through the door. It is dark, the door is already slightly open, the handle is one of those straight office-door handles, the knob on the right, the door opening away from me. I imagine how I will step into Chichen Itza and step through the door...then I am falling and falling and kind of enjoying the slow fall, I do a somersault/flip and then land, very softly, into a shallow dirt hole (the image that flashes through my mind as I land is of a story I recently heard of a woman giving birth in Tibet and digging a hole for her baby to be born into). I sit up and look around, it's dark and I believe I am at the foot of the pyramid, at a fire surrounded by many others I think of as "tribe". A woman who seems out of place is before me and to my left, she is blond and fat and has a similar nose to mine, and she is saying that she is pregnant. I congratulate her and am quite happy to hear that especially in light of the fact that I will not be bearing any more children. I ask others if they know Nomad or Atras and if they have seen them or maybe I'm trying to find them with my mind. There is a man to my right that I feel comfortable with and feel as though we've been reunited after a very long time. I snuggle in with him, and it seems as though we have merged, as though our bodies are puzzle pieces that fit together. I stay with him a bit and perhaps we chat...it's fuzzy ...and then I decide to make another attempt to get inside the pyramid. I remember looking for the beacon at some point but not sure when in the dream. I set my intention, and fly into the sky. I enter a portal that bursts into kaleidoscopic visuals, reminding me of 5-meo-dmt only the colors are more pastel and the patterns less complex. I land in what seems like my old high school. Damn. I look around, wander the halls, and notice I am in the science wing and wandering through the old chem rooms. "Whyyyy am I HERE?" I wonder out loud, annoyed...and a dark figure that is maybe in another room but I can still see him echoes back, "Why ARE you here?". I'm wondering if this is some old aspect of the past I need to integrate and so I say, "I love and bless you all..." but I don't really feel it, I just feel mostly disgusted with myself for ending up somewhere in the past murky muck again. Fuzziness...then I'm in an old western town...more fuzziness...then I am in bed with a short blonde person and negotiating sex, someone else is there questioning my choice...fuzziness. It seems like this may have been at the beginning of the dream, like it was a circular experience.
I just got out of my dry spell- Wouldn't really call it a dry spell, just two or three days of not trying to recall, I finally willed myself to do so in the morning. I was looking at my mustache in the mirror. I liked how it was, and how it had grown. The dream fades, and I'm in some sort of club. I'm a full-on adult with one of my friends. We were on a computer. We were assassins. We both had targets to take out, but we were also feeling like one of us was going to turn on the other, so we both secretly hired assassins to take eachother out once our targets were terminated. We went to a barbershop, I presumed that we had scheduled this, as we were there together. I had hired a stealthy assassin he wouldn't notice, and he had apparently hired a very large and muscular black man. My first words were, "Oh, FUCK!" I then ran outside, and the man followed me. He had a staff-ish weapon with spikes on it. It was huge, and apparent that he was one of the only men in the world that could wield it with such skill. He swung at me, several times, and I dodged each one. I had to wait until he swung, or else he would have gotten me, for with the weight of the weapon, he could not make it change directions once it was in motion. I then grabbed onto a non-spike part- most likely one of the handles, and shoved it back at his head. It hit him, but not nearly as hard as I had hoped, for he had grabbed that handle and tried to keep it from hitting him. While he was stunned, I ran off. Point of view changed to my assassin. He was pissed that I had gotten away. Kept, cursing and walked on top of some cars, then jumped onto a ledge, pulled himself up. A skinny white guy was sitting there, with a computer. My attention went back to what they were saying. He was talking about how I got away, and the man was saying, "I didn't get worse or better, he's just good... He was patient, he waited for the right opportunity..." I then woke up. I haven't been thinking about my mustache lately, so these dreams about it seem unusual... I'm only fourteen, and I don't even have to shave it, but it's noticeable.
8/20/11 DILD + DEILD Recall: somewhat poor The first bit of the non-lucid that I remember was in a park. There was hanging handle you could slide on. I jump on and use it. A group on black kids were upset that I used their thing. One of them was a big kid. They are being pretty hostile towards me. Will is there and they somehow get distracted for a second. I use this opportunity for a surprise attack. I hit one away and start stomping on the fat kid. Will stops me and asks me what I'm doing. I said they were about to attack me so I struck first. They said they weren't going to do anything. I apologized for acting rash. The dream skips to his big room. I am talking with some girl about dream sharing. We thought it is awesome that one dreamer can enter another's memories. We end up playing out a scenario where I am exploring a memory she had (still not lucid....). Eventually I get this big textbook that I was looking for and leave. I somehow become lucid and realize I have to fly somewhere. I have this backpack with a heavy book in it. I am worried this will ruin my chances of flying, and of course it does. I somehow end up this house with like 4 other people my age in the kitchen. They are all talking and I move over to the hottest girl and see if I can make a move. In response to my advances, she said, "let me see what you got and we'll see." We had to leave the room before she would try anything. I thought she might be into the kinky stuff so I just throw us onto the floor right outside the door. She is not impressed and leaves. One of the other girls knew I had trouble flying and needed help. She was upset that I was just using this opportunity for sex. She didn't believe I really needed help; she thought it was all a ploy for sex. I then became sad that I let her down and I really needed help. To prove I can't fly I open a portal next to her because it is my only means of transportation. I divert my gaze and draw a circle on the wall. A very lop sided red shape appears. And it is like 5 ft. off the ground. I climb into it and imagine my house. I fall out the other side and land in my house. I go out back to try flying again, no longer having the backpack. I failed again. My mom was behind me and told me to imagine how it would feel to be a fighter plane. I lose the dream I am awake in my bed. I can vividly picture the centripetal force with every turn of flying a jet. I keep this sensation in my head and DEILD. I am on my back porch again and excited to try to fly again using tactile imagination. I imagine the sensation again and try to fly. It worked for a bit, but it was not sustained. Eventually I lose the dream. The DCs were very interactive and helpful during this dream.
cant remember much other than i was in another different school, verything else is a blur
I keep having drowning dreams... I just had one a few days ago about drowning but I forgot it.. so this is another one from just last night. I was at this small waterpark thing with some friends and there was this steep tan slide that looked really fun and it led to a deep pool(maybe 30 feet). So I climbed the stairs to the top and waited behind this boy who was first in line. It seemed to take him forever to go down the slide and he kept repeating something, I forgot what, before he went down. Finally, it was my turn. I went down without hesitation and it was really fun! But when I splashed into the pool I just kept going down. I figured someone would see me not coming up, but then I looked around and saw about 5 or more people also drowning around me! A lifegaurd jumped in but started saving everyone around me. I was stuck at the bottom.
dad n bro telling me that i am always on my other bros side even when he's troublesome. parent using the new phone system.
melatonin I remember being at Middle school again. In the lunchroom. Not much recall from here. I remember seeing people handing out these stupid prized but I didn't care about that.* Ma was driving a bunch of people home as a bus driver. I saw my engineering teacher in the road and said hey, that's Mr.Smith. My sister said, no it's not. Then one of the students from my engineering class in the back of the jeep said "Yeah, that's Mr.Smith". I was also looking at my phone and realized I think it was my birthday. I guess I told all my friends to meet me at this park but I forgot. When they were all there I forgot to check my phone an hour ago, so they were waiting for me for an hour but I still couldn't come. Emmie texted me, are you trolling with us? And I felt guilty in this dream. So much guilt. But we ended up in an Auburn looking Tacoma for some reason. Ma was driving in these neighborhoods saying she would turn around, but we were on this highway bridge with no exits. Everyone was waiting in the back.* I think I ended up at A park or someypthing like that. This must've been a fragment, but I remember everyone was fighting off these monsters, and as I went to range, I died. Then I went to magic, I died. The most successful one was melee and I started to tackle the biggest opponent within my range. It was a big ass talking dragon. I had to kill it in a certain way, kind of like the Tomb Raider puzzle games. I ran up its back and attempted to plunge it in his back a few times. The second time I did I think he died. This wasn't very vivid.*
ToneDeafMonkey's Dream My dream starts on the roof of my house. I sit there watching the sun until it hurts my eyes. My dog is on the roof and I'm like wtf? I give him a scratch behind the ears and then he jumps off the roof and runs away down the street. I dont want to lose him so I jump off the roof too and try and catch him. I nearly get hit by a lorry which swerves around me. The guy inside rolls down his window. He has loads of tatoos on his arms. Lorry guy: What are you doing?! Me: What the f*** are YOU doing? Driving on the pavement Lorry guy: This is the road We have an argument and then I ask where my dog's gone. Lorry guy: I dont know where your stupid dog is alright? So just go away. Then he drives away. I call out for my dog. He runs up to me with the paper in his mouth, which is something he NEVER does. So now I know Im dreaming and I need to go to the pyramid. I make Nipper sit and he drops the newspaper. I step into a bush and say When I get to the other side Ill be there. When I go through the bush, Im at my old shared dreaming place. Its an old shack under a cliff. Its really windy and all the sand is blowing about. The door is open on the shack. I go inside and its pretty warm because someone has lit a fire. We used to scratch things into the wood to prove we were here. Above the bench I see one of the glyphs that we carved. This one is a circle with two dots in, and is my mate Pigsy's symbol so I wait here for a bit. I decide he isnt still here so I scratch my initials in the wood. They look like a diamond with a line through them, because its hard to scratch curved lines. I try to leave, but the door is locked. I think it's probably Pigsy. Me: Pigsy? You here? Pigsy: Yes, but Im outside. I look out of one of the cracks in the wood. Its definately Pigsy. Pigsy: Will you let me in? Me: the doors locked! Pigsy: very funny. Its raining now will you let me in? Me: I cant. The doors locked!!! Pigsy: you by the door? Me: no Pigsy: Good. I watch through the crack and Pigsy kicks the door down. I'm pleased to see Pigsy again, because he moved to Australia. Me: Wow are we doing a shared dream. Pigsy shrugs. Pigsy: Probably. Itll be the first for a long time. Me: yeah sorry about that. Pigsy: no worries. Yoou still got that dog? Me: Nipper? Yeah, why? Pigsy: had a dream with him in the other night. Hey where are you going? Me: Im not going any where. Pigsy: dude, your waking up. I woke up and grabbed my DJ to write down my dream Fragment I try to do a wild but somewhere it turns into a normal dream. I'm in a dark room and I want to get to the other side. I think I might be trying to steal something because I'm trying to be really quiet and there are lots of red lasers that I need to get past. I hope i titled it right.

Nephanim's Dreams I didn't sleep very well last night. Basically, every time I woke up to write down dreams, it took me ninety minutes or longer to fall asleep again. I ended up sleeping later to get the same amount of sleep. Mike's Time Toilet I was at my parents’ new house in Texas. They were setting up a shed of some kind in their backyard. While I helped my dad with this, a device quite similar to a TARDIS appeared in the yard. It looked like the owner had worked fairly hard to maintain it with the least amount of resources possible. The door read: “Discover something new about something old… or something new.” The first letter in the first something crackled with electricity. There was some kind of bulb inside, and instinctively, I sensed that it was an error indicator. If this light went out, the machine was no longer operational. As I studied this device that appeared out of nowhere, I wondered whose it was. Out stepped Mike, armed with a bag of tools. He waved when he saw me. “How do you like it?” he laughed. “It’s my time machine.” “Wow, that’s awesome,” I said, walking around the door to study the interior. It certainly wasn’t a TARDIS; the interior was just as cramped as it looked. It looked more like a refurbished portable toilet than anything else. I even saw two extra large rolls of toilet paper inside. “While I was working on it, I heard that your parents built a shed in their yard… You told me I helped you build it. It was just too crazy an opportunity to pass up.” “Hold on,” I interrupted. “That means you could’ve decided not to build it. Then I would’ve just been lying to you in the future.” “Right. I didn’t want you to have to lie, so here I am.” I felt kind of pathetic knowing that the extent of my honesty was limited by the motivations of people who could build time machines. Scratching my arm, I studied the inscription on the door again. It looked like most of it had been on there already, but Mike had etched some of the letters into the metal. “You didn’t build this, Mike…” I admit, I was really just testing the water, but I had a strong suspicion that I was right. He just laughed and started pointing things out to me. “Hey, could you look at this for me? I think there’s something wrong with it. And, you know, I need to go back sometime.” Mike pointed at the light I recognized as the error condition signal before. “This keeps going off, and then the machine doesn’t run. Is it just a light bulb, or…?” “It’s a fail-safe.” His aah of realization was but background noise to me at this point. I was already deeply meshed with the system of the time machine, studying it in fine detail. I could feel wires lining the door… Control systems, an internal clock holding the current offset… After a moment, I walked around to the back of the time machine and found a removable metal panel. Mike handed me a screwdriver before I could ask for one. When the panel popped off, I scrutinized the switches beneath. It didn’t take me long to find the one that was set incorrectly. I couldn’t possibly tell him what the switch did, but I knew it was wrong. I flipped it, and there was a flash of light on the side of the machine. I put the panel back on and walked over to inspect it. This time, the indicator light was totally dead, but I knew it wasn’t a system problem. “This time, it’s just the bulb,” I laughed. “We’ll get you another one before you go.” From there, we went into the shed to help my dad. I found Autumn sitting on the wooden floor inside while drinking a bottled water. She stared at Mike when he came in, but she didn’t find his appearance strange enough to ask any questions. He and my dad talked briefly, and then Mike switched places with him on the ladder. When he got to the top, he doubled over, clutching his stomach. My dad and I frowned. Without a word, Mike scrambled back down the ladder and hurried out of the shed. Autumn and I were bewildered, but my dad wore a knowing smirk. “He pooped his pants,” he explained. “Mike has that gastrointestinal problem, right?” I could just see Mike outside the window of the shed. It seemed like he was taking care of his business in the yard. I didn’t understand why; he could just as easily have gone to his time machine. I supposed Melissa was tired of cleaning out his waste. “Well, I’d better get him some toilet paper… Be right back.” I stepped out of the shed, grabbed a roll from the time machine, and brought it over to Mike. “Don’t look!” he warned when he heard me approaching. Respecting his wishes, I put a hand over my eyes and chucked the toilet paper in his direction. I explained what I’d brought him. “Good, thanks. Could you draw the curtain inside so they’re not watching me? Sorry about this.” I thought about reminding him that my parents have multiple bathrooms inside, but instead, I just went along with what he said. Inside, Chelsea and my mom started talking about how she drove when they moved to the new house. My mom was so excited that Chelsea finally had her license. In contrast, Chelsea seemed uncomfortable about the fact that our parents had let her drive. She said she didn’t even have her permit at the time… I thought that was a little strange, but it seemed like such a stupid detail for her to get wrong. I pretended I knew what she was talking about. “That’s the great thing about driving on the interstate,” I said. “People usually don’t get pulled over as long as they sort of know what they’re doing.” After chatting for a while longer, Chelsea came out to the shed with me. She, Autumn, and I talked about Mike’s time machine and what we could do with it. Presentation and Lost Items Autumn and I were visiting my parents. My dad kept getting mad at me for complaining that I didn’t get enough sleep. I assured him that getting eight hours of sleep was extremely important, and by depriving himself of that, he was likely to shorten his lifespan. He said he had been sleeping six hours or less every night since I was born, so he didn’t care if it made him die sooner. We argued in Autumn’s kitchen (even though we were supposed to be at their house) for several minutes. When we left to pick up fast food, we argued in the car, too. My dad finally lost all patience with me and refused to let me order food for myself. I decided not to argue anymore. When I got back to the house, I could just go to sleep… We returned home, but my dad insisted on watching me to make sure I didn’t try to sleep. I was furious. The dream jumped. I walked from Autumn’s house to the location of our IPRO presentation. I had to walk through a field of tall grass to get to the small town. The black shoes I wore were new; I picked them up on the way so I wouldn’t look like a slob. I also brought a copy of Inception: the Children’s Book. During the presentation, I just sat back and watched. They didn’t need me to answer any questions. Afterward, Kay sat down with me and asked me to help with her earrings. She just needed me to hold pieces of them while she took them out. They were these really elaborate dreamcatcher earrings with four pieces. I studied them as I held them in my hand. Once she got the first one out, I started putting it back together so she could store it safely in her bag. Apparently, there was some kind of trick to this. I had to push the pointed end into the back of the earring while just barely pulling in the other direction. After I did it wrong several times, Kay took the earring from me and effortlessly did it right. The earring folded in on itself like jelly and turned into a hemisphere. She did the same thing with the other earring once she got it out. We walked out of the presentation hall together, and before going our separate ways, she hugged me and asked me not to forget about her. I assured her we would stay in contact somehow – although I wasn’t connected to her via social networking or anything like that. At the time, I wasn’t even sure I had her name right, but I didn’t say that. I continued outside alone. It was too dark for me to tell which way I had come from… I still had a long way to walk to get back to Autumn’s house – at least an hour and a half’s journey. I pulled out my phone and asked for walking directions to her house. It was running really slowly, though. I decided to start walking in the same direction as some other people. Before long, I realized something was wrong: I wasn’t wearing shoes. For that matter, when I checked my bag for them, I realized my book was gone. I ran back inside the building, passing a couple of old theaters similar to the Ramova. There were security devices everywhere. I didn’t have any trouble getting back in, though. I got on an escalator that adjusted its speed according to my will. On the top floor, I ran into Kay and a guy I didn’t know. I asked about my book, but they weren’t sure where I’d left it. The guy led me down to the library and tried to give me their copy. Obviously, I wanted to find my own… I continued into what appeared to be Dakota’s bedroom. Kaitlin was changing her diaper under a dresser. The whole room was in complete disarray. Instead of a crib, she had a mattress on the floor. The rest of the furniture was turned at strange angles in the middle of the floor as though Kaitlin was in the process of rearranging. When I told her what I was missing, she made a worried face. It was going to be hard to find anything in this mess of a bedroom. We searched together and eventually managed to find my copy of Inception. There was no sign of my shoes. At Kaitlin’s recommendation, I went through a portal into a haunted house to check there for my shoes. I found a ghostly skull in the room on the other end of the portal. When I defeated it, I received three books and the initial tokens for a quest corresponding to each. It was clear that Kaitlin thought I still needed a book even though we’d found that already. I went back to the presentation hall to check there. The custodial staff stopped me at the door and assured me they hadn’t found my shoes. They said I could check the lost and found tomorrow to see if anyone had turned them in. Disappointed, I walked out of the building. I ran into Autumn and her dad on my way down the dirt path leading back to their house. We talked about my family, especially Austin. The conversation seemed to revolve around how my dad never taught us to use tools. Phil seemed to feel guilty that he couldn’t give Autumn as much money as my parents gave me at the end of our visit. I furrowed my brow when I heard him say this; it didn’t seem like him at all. When we mentioned my shoes, he pulled them out of his bag. He had them all along! Equipped with shoes, I was eager to head home. Robbo Fruccini and the Elderly of Deadman Wonderland I was imprisoned in Deadman Wonderland with Autumn. As we stumbled upon his office, we discovered that Robbo Fruccini, the legendary mob boss who secretly controlled most of the prison guards from within the prison, was actually Autumn’s brother Rob. For some reason, I understood that he was Matt and Eric’s brother, but it took me a while to understand how he was related to Autumn… We met with Shiro and retreated so Rob’s men wouldn’t kill us for discovering his secret. The dream jumped. I watched a bunch of elderly prisoners struggling in their wheelchairs. Their younger relatives visited on occasion, but in almost every case, they felt such pity for their elderly family members that they weren’t sure they could ever come back. I watched an old black woman climb into a laundry basket and roll around on the floor. Her son covered his face in his hands and muttered something about what a burden she was. Bowling, Chess, and Searching for Hills I stood in line at a store. There was only one register open even though two cashiers were working. The two people in front of me weren’t that slow, however, so I didn’t really mind. When the guy directly in front of me swiped his card to pay, he walked off to get something without signing his name, so I had to wait. After he paid, he played some kind of bowling match with the cashier. I continued waiting patiently. When my turn came, he handed me a controller. A young girl with a bored expression took the other one. I chose a golden bowling ball for good luck. At the start of the game, we had to bowl on a gigantic lane with twenty pins and some obstacles to determine our turn order. My opponent only got two pins before her ball ricocheted into the gutter. I got three, but then my ball spun so hard that it turned around and came back to hit me. Anyway, I won, so I got to go first. I found myself standing on a stone bridge just outside a small castle. Below me was a bubbling marsh full of wrecked ships. The bridge made a J shape connecting my castle to a similar one on the other end. I knew without asking that this was the girl’s castle. I decided I would start collecting materials from the shipwrecks to fortify my castle. I lifted them out of the marsh with telekinesis and set them up on the bridge. After grabbing a few ruined ships, I walked into the castle to see what was available to me. I found a reference guide for playing this game. It was ultimately a game of chess, but I would have to build my chess pieces using resources. I set the reference guide on a desk in my personal office. A man serving as my assistant stood outside the door and said “Yes, sir” to everything I said. He didn’t really assist me much. I also noticed an enormous cicada on the balcony outside my room. I warned my assistant to keep the door closed – lest the world’s largest cicada decide to invade our kingdom. “Yes, sir,” he replied, rubbing his nose. I went back to my shipwrecks and dismantled them. Using the resources from these, I was able to create some pawns. I sent most of them across the bridge to attack my opponent’s castle. It was just a test run; I wasn’t sure what they were capable of. The pawns that remained behind helped collect shipwrecks while I reviewed the reference guide in my room. It mentioned something about using fireworks to strengthen enemy soldiers. I wondered why anyone would ever want to do that… The dream jumped. Autumn was talking with Alicia about sexual orientation. She said that liking men was worth two points, liking women was worth two points, and being bisexual was worth two and a half points. Naturally, I had a problem with this; I didn’t understand why liking men and women was “better” than liking men or women. She also claimed she had earned a total of nine points through her sexuality, and even if I gave her all the points she listed, that still wouldn’t come out to nine! I brought this to her attention, but she didn’t have a good answer. She just told me I didn’t understand. I argued that perhaps someone had pressured her into preferring one of the two genders, so she was giving herself double points for being bisexual and double points for that gender. That would be nine points if she excluded the less desirable sex, but then she wouldn’t really be bisexual anymore. Anyway I worked it out, it didn’t seem right. “Hey,” Alicia said, changing the subject without a care in the world. “Have you ever seen Legacy of the Jount?” “No…” I replied. Autumn hadn’t seen it either, but apparently, she had heard of it. Some random person asked me what it was about. “I don’t really know…” I answered honestly. As I pictured the movie, I saw a building with “FORMAL HIGH SCHOOL” written on it. I supposed it was about rich kids going to school. The dream jumped. Hibari tired of dealing with school discipline and walked out to his school’s parking lot. He managed to get into a car, but without the keys, he couldn’t go anywhere. Strangely, the radio turned on when he climbed in the back seat. He muttered something about the Japanese understanding how to make a proper vehicle. Gradually, Hibari and I merged awareness, and I took control of his body. I looked down and saw the car keys on the floor of the back seat. Grinning, I picked them up and began twirling them. I could leave – but where would I go? I pulled out my phone and searched for a hill nearby. I doubted I could find one of significant size anywhere nearby. After the search went through, I found a hill that was only 1.8 miles away. It was on the other side of an airport. At first, I thought it was on the airport grounds – which would be completely useless to me – but my phone showed a video of me, Omi, and Opi taking pictures on the hill. There was some kind of desert plateau near the hill. We also found a whole family of hedgehogs living there. I wasn’t sure I really wanted to drive that far, but if I wanted to go anywhere else, it would be much further. I hopped into the driver’s seat and started the car with a sigh… Anything to get away from here, I thought.
My dream last night was interesting even though it was not lucid. The first one that I can remember is that for some reason I was going to be taking a long vacation to Japan. I was caling up family shortly after arriving there, and I was living in not one of the popular areas like Tokyo or Akihabara, but are more relatively unknown city. I think I was living in an apartment or hotel in a fairly tall apartment building, and I walked onto the street to check out the neighborhood. I found this small arcade and felt comforted. I talked with the store owner for a bit about how I'm traveling, and it's nice to have a place like this only a few blocks from where I'll be living. I asked him about the area, and if there were any cool spots to go since this wasn't one of the more known parts. I forget what he said but this is where this part of the dream basically ended. Second part of the dream I was Captain America. Except I was living in a type of wooden military lookout in the middle of a muddy field surrounded by trees on 3 sides, and a highway on my left. I set it up I think as a way that people could come and contact me if they needed help, but instead of actual people in need of a hero, all I would get are people who dressed up as Cpt. America with guns trying to kill me. I would just take their guns and shoot them back (which thinking on it now is very un-hero like). I inherently knew that it was because they felt I didn't deserve the title of Cpt. America because I'm not a real hero, I was just a man who was stronger than normal who's acting like one. One of the people visiting was this fat guy who looked like he was wearing a polo shirt that had his name on it, I believe he worked at a retail chain. I got a bad vibe so I punched him in the face and grabbed one of his wrists, but all he did was laugh as he absorbed the blows. He grabbed my chest and ran with his arms extended, pushing me through multiple walls. I forget what I did to defeat him, but after that he turned into a small paper sticker, and I remember saying to my gf "I don't mess around." as I ripped the sticker up, assumingly killing him.
