    1. Running From Monsters

      by , 05-05-2012 at 04:05 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I was being chased by some people or some monsters. I was inside a building. Dark-yellowish tint. I was in the hallway. Behind me, there's a humanoid monster. I ran, but then found there's another one up ahead. I found a small, open "space" seemingly "carved" on the wall, with a couple of small boxes. I went there and covered my head and feet with the boxes, hoping it's too dark, and that the monsters are too stupid to realize it was me. Then, a spotlight moved about, and found me. The monsters went after me. I struggled and ran out.

      I went outside the streets, jumped down the overpass, and grabbed on to the cyclone wire as I was falling down, and ran down the street to find a car. I found an auto and jumped in. I asked the driver where he's going. He said a word or place, but I forgot what it was. He looks cute, and he wears semi-formal clothes.

      He does not seem to mind I'm there, and I think he was even humming as we drove through the traffic. I keep looking around, in case we might actually be headed where I don't want to be.

      Then we were walking down the street. I keep looking back at him in case he gets snatched by the enemy. He looks very calm.

      Fast forward, we were "racing" on the street. Running. There are people and monsters ahead of us. I raised my right hand, and a great light shone from my palms, and the enemies scattered. Then the "road" was a river, and then suddenly, the water fell below us: a waterfall. Yellow sky. I grabbed him and "redirected" our fall to a nearby wall.

      We hid there. It's a small space on cliff, surrounded by low-lying walls. Just across, we can see it's a "base" of the enemy. We just waited there. Eventually, an ally passed by. A security guard who feels familiar. He probably has been in my previous dreams. He said everything's safe. We went "down" to the house. The one across has a new owner. Looked like my high school classmate Ken. He's with his family there. For some reason, I thought he might be angry at me for "killing" something or someone of his. A pet? I think I killed his "pet" to protect mine. Our eyes met.
    2. DB Goal Attempt, Post Apocalypse, Short DEILD, Nuking an Alien (March 6, 2012)

      DB Goal Attempt

      This dream was very blurry and fragmented. I was standing outside a tower that was similar to the one I trained fury mode on. Chris was standing next to me and mentioned something about "60 seconds". At this moment I remembered the Dreamer Base goal of the month and became lucid. I quickly started running up to the tower because I knew there would be a mailbox at the top. A dragon was flying outside the tower as I was running up the stairs. It started shooting fire at me, so I shot fire back. I was assuming the letter would tell me how to defeat the dragon. When I got to the top I saw a green mailbox. I don't remember what happened next though.

      Post Apocalypse

      A blurry and fragmented dream again. I was running up Main Street in Loudonville. The city was abandoned and desolate. It looked like it had been nuked or something. I remember I was being chased by something. I think they were mutants. I ran inside my grandmother's house, which was surprisingly unaffected by the nuke. I ran into the basement, somehow thinking there would be a way to escape there. Much like the Missing Baby dream, there was an optical illusion down there that hid a staircase and hallway from view. Remembering how this happened in that particular dream, I did the nose plug reality check. I was able to breathe through and I became lucid. I ran into the hidden hallway and ran down the stairs. The dream was really unstable though and I woke up.

      Short DEILD

      I managed to remain aware of my awakening from the last dream. I kept my eyes closed, didn't move, and focused on the dream I just had. It was only about 10 seconds before I slipped right back into the same dream from before. I was lucid of course when I entered the dream. I was lying down on the floor where I had left off. I was having trouble moving at first, but eventually got past that. I started running along the dark hallway again. Sadly, something woke me up again. Maybe it just wasn't the right time of night for a stable dream.

      Nuking an Alien

      Yet, another blurry and fragmented dream. I guess it was just a problem that night. I was lucid right from the start and I think I might have used DEILD. I'm not sure though. I was on Mars and there were a hundred Aranian soldiers or more riding around on flying scooters. It was a very sci-fi styled dream. They were all flying around some floating alien and shooting lasers from their scooters. The alien was generating a shield and shooting lasers at the soldiers. I noticed that the alien had many crystals surrounding its body. It was gathering energy from them. That's probably one of the main reasons the Aranians were trying to take it down.

      I was just standing there and watching the awesome fight passively. The general then started to speak to me through a radio. "Dragonborn! We need your help!" He said. I then remembered that dropping a nuke was something I always wanted to do. I locked onto the aliens energy and then made a downward motion with my hand. A nuke then landed on the alien and blew it to pieces. Unfortunately the explosion was so powerful that my dream destabilized and I woke up.

    3. Searching for Claire (March 5, 2012)

      DreamLucidAwake

      Searching for Claire

      Well, when you don't write a dream until 2 months later, things become a little blurry. It started out with me walking along some part of Honey Creek Road in Ohio. Chris was also walking with me. It was rainy and a little foggy. We were looking for something, but I wasn't quite sure what we were looking for at the time. The setting of the dream and the fact that we weren't succeeding made us feel kind of bad. "I'm getting sick of this rain." I said. Right after I said this, I noticed a girl ahead who doesn't seem to be bothered by the rain. I'm pretty sure it was my dream student, Molly.

      Some sort of weird dream thing happened where I started seeing the world through her eyes for a moment. Through her eyes, there was no rain, but only sunshine. Everything was just fine and happy. There's something I learned from that about positive thinking, but I don't feel like explaining it. When my vision returned to normal, I felt a lot better. The rain quickly disappeared and the sun started to shine brightly. We walked over to Molly and greeted her. I can't remember what was said, but she agreed to help us.

      As we walked along the road I saw a town off in the distance. To the side of the road I also notice a sign with a few things about the town. There were pictures of different things associated with the town. At the bottom right corner of one of the images there was a man reading a newspaper. I saw Claire's picture in the paper.
      I finally became lucid due to all of the obvious signs I was dreaming. I realized that Claire is who were looking for. She was missing and was apparently last spotted in this town. I looked away from the sign and said, "I think Claire might be in this town!" "Why do you think that?" Chris asked. "Look at this picture." I told him. When I looked back at the picture, the newspaper showed an article about a car crash instead of Claire.

      I got a little annoyed and tried to figure out how I thought I saw Claire. "I could have sworn I saw Claire in that picture." I said. "I remember you told me that sometimes text changes inside dreams. So maybe it works the same for pictures." Molly said. That actually made sense. "Thanks, I think you might be right." I said. I started walking towards the town, but then it felt like I was alone. I turned around and realized they were still standing next to the sign. "Aren't you guys coming?" I asked. I saw that Chris was looking a bit nervous. "Claire scares me sometimes." Chris said. "Alright, you two can stay here, but I'm going to find Claire." I said. I then proceeded to walk towards town.

      The dream skipped here and I was now inside an indoor basketball court. Claire was one of the coaches for some reason. I was going to talk to her, but I somehow ended up being put in the middle of a basket ball game. I used my lucid powers to give myself a little bit of an edge in the game. I was doing things like using strength to make power shots, moving very fast, and slowing down time. When one of the kids finally realized what I was doing he became very angry. He started to have some sort of violent anger seizure thing and had to be taken to the hospital. I think I woke up after that.

      Dream #1 Oneironaut's Plan.

      Im in some huge warehouse with Oneironaut Zero. He shows me this huge map on a table and different locations of places that we need to investigate. He is wearing some black shades, and a militant uniform with badges all on him. I reach in my pocket and grab my hawk coin and sit down in this chair while he is explaining to me this plan that he has devised.

      Picking up Sinoblak.

      Im in the backseat of a car, while Oneironaut is driving. It is night time, and we are driving on a highway. Oneironaut is telling me something about blending in at the place where im headed so we don't blow our cover. We pull up to this building and pick Sinoblak up. She is wearing a long black trench coat with some dark shades on and has black leather gloves on and tight leather pants with leather boots.

      No turning back now.

      Oneironaut is going over the plan with me and Sinoblak again. He tells us that this is no easy walk in the park, and that we need to be careful with our words once in the building.
      I get out the car and Sinoblak gets out and i walk up to this building and SB stops me and hugs me and says to be careful.

      4:30 -4:45 Am. Did some subconscious training and went back to bed.

      WILD - Dream #2 The Romancer.

      Im in some Boat, It is night time. with this beautiful Greek woman with long dark hair, and slanted eyes, and a very curvy figure. Im in bed with her telling her something about i have to leave because im putting her life at risk. She cries telling me please don't leave her and letting me know she wants to go with me. I kiss her and look back at her as i leave. I walk back to her and give her my Maroon Moonstone totem and tell her to keep it. I also mention to her that she will see me again when the time is right. We kiss eachother passionately and i head for the docks and flee thru the forest.

      On the Run.

      Im wanted for something, and im fleeing thru the forest hearing dogs barking and helicopters going over me. It is enough to make me lucid, and i decide to continue on with my scenario. I hear swat team members talking, as i head for one of my hideouts. Its another boat area, and im, setting up different traps and baits trying to be as quick as possible. Im hearing windows shatter, and footsteps enter the boat as i am preparing traps and things on the boat. I reach in the fridge, and grab some soda and throw some sort of pill and small object in the bottle. I duck behind the kitchen counter, and toss the bottle hearing a loud explosion. I run thru the smoke, tackling thru all the members and even taking their weapons. I shoot, stab, and take out an entire swat team of these guys.

      I dive thru the carpet floor and wake up.

      5:35 - 5:45 Am. Did plenty of reality checks with my totem. And a little bit of subconscious training.

      Dream #3 Snake Charmer.

      Im in my 2nd home fighting this giant snake lady. She has a face of a goddess, but her body is a long snake. She takes her tongue and tries wrapping it around me, I am caught in her tongue.. and managed to flee from her grip by biting her tongue. She screams and lets me loose. Im running thru different rooms as she is slithering thru the halls and take her rattlesnake tail and bashing thru walls trying to get me. She is hissing and laughing at the same time this is being done. I look at the wall as it is a dead end, I turn around and look at her and fall backwards and wake up.

      False awakening.

      Im in my 2nd home again and wake up in my bed I look around and notice that im here in my 2nd home, and start becoming lucid i started thinking about the TOTM. I went outside looking for a DC to possess no one in sight. i started walking around and noticed a old man sitting down at a table. I walk up to him and hear my alarm going off in wl and wake up.


      Notes: I am fairly happy with my recall now. I could have went back to sleep after my last dream, but had to be up 2 hours later.
    5. Being in middle age turns to Buenos Aires

      by , 05-04-2012 at 09:32 PM
      I was on a test with a teacher called Silvana, but I was outside school. The place was like a prision of india.

      After that short dream ended I woke up by the alarm. It was 2 am so I wanted to try WILD.

      In the process I fell asleep normally so I didn't achieve WILD, however in the dream I said ""Damn it, i fell asleep, i couldn't do WILD", but even saying that I didn't become lucid. Maybe it was because the dream was still not vivid, I had to stabilize it.

      Later I dreamt about an old console I had with a cool game that I still want to play. It was Sega Genesis, but still the games I had were completely different.

      After that I changed to a completely different story that lasted until the end of the dream. I was in the middle age. If you watch Game of Thrones, I was on the side of the Khaleesi (Emilia Clarke) so we got into a castle, infiltrated. The Khaleesi was with another man and as there wasn't anybody on the castle yet, the man fucked her. But they didn't know that their troops (which were outside of the island waiting) were decimated. When the Khaleesi knew that the people were hunting her she started to run upstairs, and she appeared in a hotel room. There was a chinese, master of Kung Fu, that wanted to kill her so she ran to a different room. Nobody was able to help her and that chinese reached her. She had to defend herself, but something amazing happened: she saw the future and she saw that she almost killed that chinese. Therefore that happened. Then they appeared in a big city, Buenos Aires, and the chinese went to play the violin into a bar. That was the time where the Khaleesi could scape so she did it. Then the Khaleesi transformed into me and the guy with her into my sister, but still in Buenos Aires. We were looking for a hospital, and we found one very close. We went there (it was night by then) and a lot of low class (guachos) came from the end of the street. Clearly they were going to steal to us, so we hid. Many of them passed through but the last ones saw us and they started threatening us. I couldn't fight him because I was tired (fought the chinese) so he stole all of my money.

    6. Riverside Snipers, Basic TOTM, Advanced TOTM (May 4, 2012)

      Riverside Snipers

      This dream started off at the pavilion at Riverside Park in Loudonville. The pavilion was rigged up like a bunker with sandbags and barbed wire protecting it. I was there with about 20 other people maybe. There were tons of different guns lying on the tables, but mostly sniper rifles. There were a few officers there that were giving orders, tasks, and equipment. Before anyone could tell me what exactly was happening or what my job was, bullets started flying towards us. "They're here! Get to your positions!" An officer yelled. I looked towards the other side of the park and saw a bunch of people with guns shooting at us. The battle had begun.

      I moved to the left side of the pavilion where there only seemed to be a couple other people. Because I didn't have any orders or any idea of the situation, I thought it would be best to stay out of the way. There were some automatic weapons on this side. I grabbed what I'm assuming was an M16 rifle and ducked behind the bags of sand before I could get shot. When there was a break in the bullets flying towards me, I got back up and started firing at them. I hit a few enemies before they started to hide behind the trees and park toys.

      It wasn't very long until my clip went empty. Right when I stopped firing, a girl with a sniper rifle came out from behind a tree. My danger sense activated on its own and I looked right at her when she fired. I then slowed down time and just barely dodged the bullet. Time control had saved me once again.
      I became lucid at this point because I recognized time control as one of my dream powers. I ducked back down behind the sandbags and thought about my situation. I figured it would be hard to hit people so far away with an M16. I decided to try my hand at sniping.

      I ran over to the right side of the pavilion while staying as low as possible. I then picked up a hunting rifle that was painted red. I looked through the scope and started looking for people to shoot. Using time control, I was able to speed myself up to quickly find and shoot targets. I was moving a little too quickly though and accidentally shot one of my own guys. He was just standing out in the open with an SMG, so i assumed he was an enemy at first.

      "Oh shoot!" I yelled when I realized my mistake. "Dude! You just shot one of our guys!" Someone to my left said. "He was just standing in the open so I thought he was an enemy! Well, I didn't like him that much anyways." I said. We then carried on with the battle and sniped more enemies. I started to feel really guilty about shooting the guy though. "Okay, just kill me now. I deserve it." I said. The guy to my left pointed his rifle at my head and said, "Okay." I wasn't afraid of being killed, but I remembered that guns are very loud. That didn't make me feel very comfortable about it being pointed into my ear. I really hate loud noises. "Wait! I change my mind! That's too loud for me!" I yelled to him. "Okay." He said and went back to sniping.

      I can't remember what happened after that. I think I might have woken up voluntarily.


      Basic TOTM

      I was somewhere in the desert way out west. I was standing outside some old west styled town. I was on some sort of mission, but I can't remember what exactly the goal was. I tried walking into the town, but a few snipers were hiding around the town. They recognized me as someone who is a threat and started shooting at me. I remembered how snipers were a theme of the last dream and became lucid. I slowed down time and dive rolled behind a building. Strangely, they acted as if I didn't exist anymore and the town's residents became active.

      I sat behind that building for a moment. I was trying to think of a way to sneak in without getting shot at. I could feel the energy of someone walking towards the building. I knew this person would see me and cause a panic. I suddenly remembered the basic task of the month for some reason and linked it to my problems. I waited for the person to come around the corner and prepared to turn into a shadow. A woman came around the corner and I turned into a shadow. Before she had the chance to scream, I phased into her body. I'm not 100% sure what I did once i was inside her. I sort of attached my shadow to her body while mixing our energies. I waited until it felt like her body felt like it was mine. I moved my body around a little to test it out. I had completely taken over her body and she probably wasn't aware of anything.

      I casually walked back into town. I watched the snipers out of the corner of my eye and they didn't sense that anything was wrong. I had a feeling that I would need guns for my mission. I walked into a gun store and looked around. Surprisingly, no one was there and there was only a few sniper rifles lying around. I would have expected to see some revolvers. I grabbed a rifle and walked outside. I was only inside for like 10 seconds maybe and there were already a few black cars parked outside. Some government agents like the ones in The Matrix stepped out of the vehicles. They could have been pointing their guns at me because I was holding a sniper rifle. I get the feeling though that they knew I was trouble.

      When they started firing at me, I slowed down time and started dodging bullets. I flipped behind the porch of a building and took cover there. I was doing my best not to get shot while in someone's body. When I heard their guns go click, I went out into the open while slowing down time. I looked through the scope and killed an agent who had an assault rifle. A couple agents with hand guns started shooting at me. I did an aerial to get out of the way. Half way through the aerial I shot one of the agents in the heart. When I hit the ground, I was still being shot at, so I rolled behind one of the cars. I then stood back up and quickly shot the last too remaining agents.

      As I reloaded my rifle, something started falling towards the Earth. It was some sort alien monster machine thing. It had four steel tentacle legs that it used for walking. The main part of the creature was a giant brain inside a dome. It landed on the roof of a building and showed me some spinning blades at the end of its tentacles. I shot it a few times with my rifle, but the bullets only bounced off of it. I tossed the sniper rifle to the side and summoned my crystal sword. It swiped at me with its spinning blades and I blocked it with my sword. When I knocked the tentacle away, I focused lightning magic into the crystals of my sword. I jumped towards the monster and slashed it a few times. It appeared to cause damage and pain to the creature. I was about to strike its brain, but a tentacle came from the side and grabbed me. It swung me around the air for a moment before throwing me back down towards the ground. I surrounded myself with earth magic before I hit the ground to absorb the impact.

      I got back off the ground and ran right back towards the monster. When I jumped towards it a blue bubble of energy surrounded both of us. We were then teleported to the monster's home planet. It was a dark, cold, rocky planet. Three more of those monsters appeared in front of us. Rather than killing me though, they actually started talking. "Junior! What have I told you about rampaging?!" The bigger one said. "It isn't nice..." The monster next to me said. "That's right! You're grounded!" The big one said. "But mom!" He said. "No buts! Come on, we're going home." The big one told him. The two other ones next to the mother started laughing. "Mom, you're embarrassing me!" He said. "You should have thought about that before you terrorized this little girl."

      After this very unexpected discussion, they all left to go home. I think there home was a giant hole in the ground. I waved to them as the walked away and the mother waved back. I woke up after this.


      Advanced TOTM

      I was sitting on the couch at my grandmother's house in Loudonville. It was night time. Bill offered me a cup of coffee and I accepted it. I've never had coffee before and I felt like trying it for some reason. I took a sip of it and it tasted horrible. I'm not even sure how to describe the taste. I then went to the kitchen to find a way to improve upon it. I found some maple syrup and decided to pour a glob of that in. Everything is better with maple! I also found a container of sugar. I poured that in until the cup started over flowing. After mixing it a little I tasted it again. It tasted better, but the coffee taste was still too much for me to tolerate.

      My sister came through the door and told me that it was Halloween night. We were apparently supposed to attend some Halloween seminar or something. I didn't really want to go, but it was either that or drinking coffee. The seminar was supposed to be in a big white building at the end of Main Street. It felt like it was too far away for me to simply walk. I like to run. I started sprinting ahead for a few seconds before my sister yelled at me. I forgot that she hates running and doesn't like being outside at night alone. So I ran back to her, lifted her onto my back, and started running. It was a bit of a challenge because it actually felt like I was carrying someone.

      By the time we got to the end of Main Street I was tired out. My sister had to drag me across the floor at this point because I was too exhausted and lazy. When we walked inside there was a huge crowd of people, a podium on the other side, and a bunch of Legos on a table in the middle of the crowd. A lady was at the podium giving a speech about something. I can't remember anything she said though, so it apparently wasn't anything I cared too much about.

      I stood there for a while and tried to keep myself busy during the boring speech. My attention was then directed towards the Legos. There was a little girl that was some how able to command them to magically walk on their own. I think this little girl was actually Lucia.
      I became lucid for what I am not quite sure. It might have been because of Lucia or because of magical Lego people. I remembered the advanced task of the month at this moment. I remembered that I wanted to make Lego people become life sized. There were two of them on the table that weren't moving. I did what Lucia did and poked both of the Lego people. They suddenly jumped to life and started moving around. These two Lego people then ran into each other, and the motions they were making looked kind of odd.

      I noticed that the Lego people had energies like living people. I focused on this energies and tried to expand them. When I did that, the two awkwardly moving Lego people grew to about my size. The attention of everyone in the room shifted to them now. It turns out those weird motions were them trying to have sex. Everyone in the room found this kind of disturbing. I summoned a camera and aimed it at the Lego people. "Let's try to remember this moment as insufficiently as possible" I said. I think by that I meant we should try to forget this as much as we can. I then took a picture of them and tore the picture apart. When I did this, the two Lego people disappeared and everyone forgot it had happened. I had captured a moment in time and effectively erased it.

      I can't remember much of what happened after that. I sat through the boring speech for a while. I decided that the speech was boring enough for me to want to remember as insufficiently as possible. So I walked outside with my camera and aimed it at the building. "Let's try to remember this moment as insufficiently as possible!" I said. I then took the picture, tore it up, and walked back towards my grandma's house. I think I woke up before I got there though.

    7. Oh yeah, this is what euphoria feels like!

      by , 05-04-2012 at 08:50 PM
      Oh yeah, this is what euphoria feels like! [Trip Report]
      Alcohol, Cannabis
      Date: May 3rd, 2012

      Dose:
      repeated, oral, Alcohol - Cabernet Sauvignon
      repeated, smoked, Cannabis

      Yesterday afternoon, K, the same K I always talk about but who from this point on I'll refer to as R, texted me saying that his evening plans had fallen through so I asked him if he wanted to hang out. I went over there without really intending to get too far away from sober, but at one point we decided to go get drinks at Sonic and then buy some wine and beer afterward. I'm still trying to not really drink these days, but I figured it'd be okay as long as I got a set amount and stuck to it, and stayed away from liquor. I bought a bottle of red wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon, and R bought a six pack of beer, and then we headed back to his apartment.

      After R found a neighbor with a corkscrew, I started drinking pretty quickly. We watched an episode of Metalocalypse that R wanted to show me and then listened to some music, and I was feeling drunk pretty easily. Alcohol tends to hit me pretty hard most days the way I normally drink, especially when I haven't had a drink in a while. I barely checked what time it was at any point in the night, so it's hard for me to say the time frames beyond this, but we just talked about stuff for a good amount of time and kept drinking, and eventually I started to notice that my memory didn't extend very far beyond 10-20 seconds back. I decided to give it a rest as to avoid a blackout.

      Ever since my tequila excursion before last where I blacked out for the first time I've been faced with a problem. Once you're on the verge of blacking out, how do you directly enhance the alcohol's high without losing awareness? But then, R brought the solution straight to me. Smoke weed! Sounds simple, no? But I realized then how accurate of a solution it is. Alcohol is said to raise phenethylamine levels in the brain, which causes D2 activation. I've had enough clothes-shedding tequila experiences to believe this is true, since my mindset, imagination, euphoria, dissociation, EVERYTHING I get from drinking tequila, and to a lesser extent other alcohols as well (I just don't drink them as fast as tequila), is characteristic of D2. The beauty of this is, THC works by raising phenethylamine levels too, to an even more significant degree than alcohol at least for me, so the D2 effects will stack without increasing the GABAergic amnesia! R only had a small amount of weed, but he had wanted to get rid of it anyway. We loaded a bowl and quickly smoked it, and it was pretty high quality. I'm also fairly certain I took another hit or two later on, but I'm not sure exactly when it was. Some time in there I also drank the last bit of wine from my cup (yes, cup ) and put the rest of the wine away; I can't remember if that was before or after that last bit smoking. There was just enough wine in the bottle left for another cup of the sizes I'd been pouring, so I took out a pretty good amount of it.

      Once it had all hit me, I was just lying on the floor staring at the ceiling in ecstasy. I hadn't felt that good since way back when R and I first started getting heavy into the drug scene! The weed high was mostly assimilated into the drunkenness, rather than adding its own effects it really just potentiated what I was already feeling. Everything around me was in a constant spin and difficult to focus on, but in a very pleasant way. My body high was very intense, and I essentially felt like I was blackout drunk but not blacked out. It was pretty great. R and I ended up just talking mostly for a while, and at one point we spontaneously started improvising a skit where I had already seen some unmentioned truth and I was trying to convince him that he was keeping himself blind by resisting it, and in the end when he finally admitted to it he couldn't bear the weight of reality and ended his life, and I silently lamented his loss. It was rather satisfying considering it flowed pretty flawlessly. Eventually we were getting hungry so we decided to walk down the main street his apartment complex is off of and find some food.

      The outside world was awesome! The D2 effects were in full swing here making everything look very intensely detailed and colors were highly saturated, and I felt extremely playful as far as perceiving my environment went. Combined with the memory fog of being drunk, it made the area look like a totally new place for me to explore again, despite having been there countless times. It was already around 1:00am at this point, or possibly a little later (it's hard to remember exactly), so we weren't expecting too much, but we tried to going to Del Taco first. Closed! There were people in there so we tried walking through the drive thru and they totally ignored us. We walked to Whataburger next and they were closed too, and we were considering trying the drive thru again since we know it's 24/7 for sure, but then R noticed that the Jack-in-the-Box across the street had an OPEN sign turned on in the window. Success! We stumbled over there as we had been this whole time and went inside, and I don't remember what I ordered but it was some chicken sandwich, and holy crap it was freaking fantastic. It was almost too much to handle, it was soooo good. I was still fairly full from earlier in the day when I had my 20 McNuggets celebration meal from McDonald's though, so after the sandwich and about half of my french fries I gave up. R, barely having eaten all day, ordered three sandwiches and a thing of cheese sticks, and finished my fries.

      After we finished eating we walked back to R's apartment and we were both pretty beat. I told R I could sleep on the floor but he wouldn't let me, he insisted that I take his bed. (There was nothing else to sleep on like a couch or anything, it's his new apartment and he doesn't really have much furniture yet.) I'm pretty sure it only took me about five or ten seconds to pass out after my head hit the pillow. When I woke up today I was fairly dissociated, I wasn't really comprehending much of reality aside from how comfortable the bed I was in was. I rolled around sort of in a trance until finally I opened my eyes all the way and saw that my vision was so blurry it was nearly pixelated, and there was a strange filter over everything, sort of a grid of yellow, blue, red, and green dots that was creating sort of a fuzzy static noise as well, but it faded away quickly. I didn't really want to get out of bed yet at the risk of being hungover, so I just rolled around some more trying to fall asleep again. I'm pretty sure I did at least once or twice, but I was also hallucinating a fair amount. Just hypnagogic and hypnopompic stuff, I suppose this combination made them come out especially easily. At least five or six times I saw R come into the room and try to wake me up for various reasons, though he never actually did, and I knew he had really gone to work before I even woke up the first time. I heard voices coming from the room next to me a few times too, but I think they were actually coming from outside. I also spent some time looking at the ceiling and noticing what a strange pyramid-like shape it had, only to later look at the ceiling again when I actually got up and notice it was flat.

      Surprisingly, there was no hangover of any kind. When I got home I did some chores and then got in the shower and felt very refreshed and energized. As I'm typing this I still feel fairly ready to do something. Definitely a good experience overall.
    8. Sex, night-becomes day, and the purple building

      by , 05-04-2012 at 07:27 PM
      I went to sleep late last night, later than I meant to. It may be the cause of my WBTB being so vivid.

      Dream 1- Don't recall.

      Dream 2 - I was lying in a bed and getting ready to have sex with someone who lives down the street. That's all I want to say.

      Dream 3 - I am somewhere downtown, though I can't correlate my location to any known area. I have an appointment in a research building for some kind of evaluation. I kow it's something important but the paper I'm holding doesn't tell me what the test might be. Just an address which I can't read.
      The building is in front of me, perhaps 150 meters long and approximately 3 stories in height. Windows are visible which should tell me how many stories but I can't seem to figure out if it was two or three. I just know it was tall enough for a three story building.
      What stands out about this building is that every line, every edge of the building is colored in an electric purpley-magenta color, similar to an effect one might get from taking too many No-Doz and drinking a lot of caffeine and not eating for two days. It doesn't quite pulse but there is an alternating quality to the luminosity of the color.
      I never get close enough to the building to enter it and the dream ends.

      Dream 4- (WBTB after taking my daughter to school. Major Sleep Paralysis)

      [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][/SIZE][/FONT]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]I’m inside my house, in my living room, and I believe thetime to be around 4A.M. I hear a sharp noise outside, like a hammer bang, and Iassume it must be someone hammering in a campaign sign across the street at theschool like they do every time there is an election day coming up. I dismissthe noise initially, but then think it odd because it wasn’t repetitive and itdoesn’t usually occur at 4A.M.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]I look out the window to see what is going on, and notice it’sa bit bright for 4A.M. I decide to go outside and investigate myself. [/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]Across the street is the school, and right in front is aportable building which isn’t normally there. As I come around the corner ofthe building I can see the source of the noise. Standing by the wall of theportable is my neighbor from down the street, a fellow parent whose daughter isin the same grade as mine. She is holding a small pry-bar/hammer and has usedit to remove a six to eight foot long piece of sheet metal from the side of theportable. Why would she do that, I wonder, and then realize it is probably tocover up her windows from an impending tornado. This makes sense to me.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]I look around towards the nearby playground and see that alot of people are out and about for 4A.M. and the landscape is awfully brightas well. There is no apparent sun but the scene around me would suggestotherwise. Occasional patches of light and dark would dance over the ground,alternating places as my mind tried to decide if it was night or day. I think Isaw the moon at one point and confirmed it was night, just a very bright night,brighter than any night ever. The sky changed color a few times, from purplishto white, depending on my thoughts at the given moment.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]Knowing it was night I checked my watch to confirm,something I read about on the forum only yesterday. My watched show it was3:23A.M. so I knew I was right about it being night but I checked again and it nowsaid 3:29A.M. I knew that 6 minutes hadn’tpassed since I last looked at my watch so the test worked and I must bedreaming. Still, even this didn’t surprise me.[/SIZE][/FONT]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]I started to head back in the direction of my house, thoughI am still on the school property. Ahead I spot a group of kids on thesidewalk, and I recognize one of them as a friend of my daughter’s. As theyapproach the kids become recognizable, though I never give them names. All arelaughing and seem to not be able to stand still.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]“Does your mom know you’re out this late, C?” I ask the girlI know well. [/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]“No.” She says this matter-of-factly, and gestures to thesurroundings which are very bright. “She doesn’t care.” [/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]I know I’m dreaming but it doesn’t alter my parentalinstincts. “Go home!” I tell her, and the group leaves. They walk down thestreet and while I know she doesn’t live that way I accept her actions as ifthey were normal.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]Inside my house the TV is on, and Jen is sitting in theliving room. I look out the window to make sure everything hasn’t changedoutside. Indeed, the light is still there, though it seems to want to change todarkness because of my thoughts that say it is night. Patches of light and darkalternate prominence in my field of view. I want it to stay light out and mywill is strong enough to keep it so.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]“Do you see what I see?” I ask.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]I don’t tell her what I see because I don’t want to suggestan outcome and have the visual change at my suggestion. I can recognize that Iam able to control how it looks outside by thought.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]She indicates that she also sees the phenomena and that itseems rather unusual. In my mind it becomes unexplained and in need of ananswer.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]On the TV a weather announcer is displaying the currentradar picture for Austin and talking incessantly about the storms. A green massis displayed right over the city, and it swirls around in fast motion, too fastfor any normal storm. It seems to cover several counties in Central Texas.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]Storms and tornadoes in this area, the weatherman indicates,pointing to the green blob. I zoom in to the image and I don’t see anythingsevere indicated, which seems good, but I also don’t understand why we arehaving a tornado, and it seems like an odd weather event. Perhaps this is whyit’s bright outside, an unusual weather phenomenon.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]Again I look outside and while it remains bright, there isno rain, contradicting what is shown on the TV. I can’t explain this, and takeit as another weird sign.[/FONT][/SIZE][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3] [/SIZE][/FONT]
      [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][/SIZE][/FONT]
      [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]I wake up, and my body will not come to an alert level. Ihave the sleep paralysis and it takes me some minutes before I can move. When Ido it takes great effort to move my legs and hand. I feel like I have beenperforming vigorous activity in my sleep. A full 15 minutes pass before I evendecide to stay alert and awake.[/FONT][/SIZE]
      [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][/SIZE][/FONT]
    9. Lucid Dream?

      by , 05-04-2012 at 07:16 PM (My Dream Journal; Mentis est Infinata)
      I just remembered having a lucid dream. Not sure if it was last night or not. It's VERY blurry. I can barely remember anything.

      All I can remember was me struggling to summon something/someone. I think it had something to do with a swimming pool.

    10. TOTM aka Giraffe Ride

      by , 05-04-2012 at 06:32 PM (Ophelia's Book O' Fun II)
      I had an impromptu WILD this morning. Hooray for sleep and 5-htp.

      I did my usual WBTB and went back to sleep around 8am, a little on the later side for me, but I was thinking about stupid stuff. A dog barked and woke me up. I was in the perfect sleepy state for a WILD, so I just relaxed, kept my eyes closed, and felt the vibrations come on. They waved over me a couple times, then I slipped into a dream. I 'awoke' in my bed, and Daisy jumped onto the bed with me. I knew it was a dream immediately because she never does that, and the door was closed anyway. Plus Daisy was outside irl. It was really fuzzy lucidity, and I had to lay on the bed for a bit, looking over my hands until things became clear. I commanded some lights to turn on which also helped my usual left-eye blindness. When things looked good, I gave Daisy a little pat, then I got up and left the room. I went outside and flew for a little while, really low to the ground. I like flying now, more control and no vertigo. After I did that for a bit I tried to remember the TOTM. So I looked on my porch and there was a little stuffed giraffe. I almost willed a Winnie the Pooh, my true favorite toy, but I changed my mind. I thought a giraffe would be better because I could try to ride it. So I picked it up and took it into the livingroom. I set him in the middle of the floor, stepped back, and did the hand stretchy thing that I usually do to stretch my DCs back to normal size after they shrink. He grew reaaaaaaallly big! And so fluffy! I just ran up to him and gave him a hug. I was scared for a minute because I was 100% sure he would bite me. He didn't. One would think that by worrying about it, I would make it happen anyway and ruin the whole thing. Lucked out somehow. Guess DD took the night off. Anyway, I went behind him and tried to jump on his back. It was so hard to stay on because his back, like a true giraffe, sloped down. I grabbed some of his mane, and he didn't seem to mind. Then he just took off out the front door, with me constantly slipping down the back, barely holding onto tufts of giraffe hair. After about a minute I was tired of getting hooved in the butt so I got off. I flew around some more, lost lucidity and woke up.

      I love giraffes!! They're hard to ride!!

      Some stupid hat dream too.
    11. 04 May 2012 Accident

      by , 05-04-2012 at 06:10 PM
      I was driving my boyfriends car and there was a guy on a bike coming directly at me, he was busy with his phone and didn't see me coming. I slowed down and wanted to go left to avoid an accident but the guy also went left. He hit the car and I stepped out and yelled at him; pay attention to where you are going instead of playing with your phone! Then I asked if he was hurt but he was oke. The car was scratched though and my bf was angry about it. Later on I found out it wasn't scratched but it was just ice on the car that looked like scratches and the sun melted it away.

    12. Finding neverland part 2

      by , 05-04-2012 at 06:05 PM (Tales from the sun chaser.)
      So I head out of my house and I see my car and there's someone sleeping in it. I open it up and I see my nieces. The younger one wakes up and says hi, and I tell them they should come to Neverland with me. She says something about being tired and I'm about to leave, and then she says "well give me a hug first dang". I gave her one and headed out. I went the same direction as last time but ended up some place different. It was like a school, but it had no sidewalks, and the ground was covered in brown leaves. I saw this one girl I knew from jr high, and I asked her if she wanted to go. I took her in the air and flew with he, and she said no. I put her back down and continued on. I met a group of kids working on arts and crafts and asked them if they knew how to get there and they didn't.

      For some reason I couldn't fly anymore. I just laid there on my stomach, thinking about how it feels to fly, and suddenly the wind picked me up and I was back in the air, but i was kinda out of controll...:the. The phone rang and woke me the fuck up.


      Next time I'm trying a door to darkness, she lives me not, or a good old fashioned scene change.

    13. 5-4-12

      by , 05-04-2012 at 05:21 PM
      Dream One: The dream starts out that I get a book in the mail. The book is a paper back book, but a translation of some sort of ancient Egyptian spell book. I'm very excited because I think it will have all sorts of cool spells to try, as well as recipes for making my own bath and ritual oils and such. My husband is outside when I get the book, and he's chatting with the oldest neighborhood kid. For some reason my husband decides he wants to go explore the attic, so we all three go inside and start walking up a spiral staircase into the attic. (In waking life, our attic doesn't even have a ladder, you have to climb in through the closet!) While we're up there I'm talking about the book I have, and my husband is doing the usual pretending to be interested when he isn't actually paying any attention at all :/ But then either he or the neighbor spots a mummified body in the attic! My husband says it's really old, so we need to take the hands in to the police for identification. He searches for a bag, and when he finds a brown paper bag he puts it over the hands of the mummy and breaks the hands off into the bag! It's all dusty and it stinks really bad. I'm ready to get out of there, all creeped out by this body, so we start down the stairs, but the boys go in front of me. I start joking that the mummy scared the piss out of me, and asked my husband if he'd give me his underwear if I really had had the piss scared out of me. He says no way, I'd have to walk around wet! So I say, "Oh come on, someone would have to man up and give me his underwear if I had the piss scared out of me! Your my husband, you should be more than willing to take one for the team and go commando so I don't have to walk around covered in pee!" He doesn't find this amusing, but the neighbors kid does. Then we are at the bottom of the steps and out of the house. We go to the other neighbors house (b/c he's a police officer) and it's the police station (<3 dream logic, ha ha) His ex wife is behind a desk as the secretary, and she takes the bag and tells us thank you very much like everything is fine. I start leaving, and the kid follows me, but my husband stays behind for who knows what reason. Then I overhear someone say that we found the body in the attic and they'd have to move their laser gun target somewhere else. Then the neighbors kid stops and asks me if I'm scared. I'm thinking this is some sort of undercover scandal by the police, and I totally don't want to piss them off! But then I remember I have my spell book. I hold it up and tell him, No way, I'm not scared, I have the magic I need to keep us safe. Then I wake up.

      Dream Two (Fragment): I bought pajamas for the kids from JC Penny with some sort of coupon I had.

      Dream Three: I'm trying to teach my mom how to play the Kinect, but we've got it set up outside, at the lake. So in order to be far enough away from the sensor, you have to be in the water, and right next to where the ground makes a HUGE drop from like 3 feet deep water to 9 feet deep water, lol. The kinect game it's self is awesome! For some reason you can be Link from the Legend of Zelda, and go running through Hyrule field by running in place. Or you can chose to exercise, with Link as your personal trainer. And it wasn't toon link or anything either, it was grown up Ocarina of Time Link. I remember thinking in the dream I'd work out all day long if I got to watch grown up Link bend and stretch the whole time! I also thought having the adventure mode was a really awesome idea. I wondered why I don't play this game all the time? Then I woke up!

      Dream Four: I'm watching in third person as Serena from Sailor Moon gets a present from her boyfriend, Darien. It's a little tiny circle ornament with her picture in it, but it's the cartoon version of sailor moon, in my dream I knew Serena was Serena, but they weren't cartoons. She asks what it is, and he tells her it's a pendant to remind her that he is always there, always thinking of her. She loves it, but then it's late and she's fighting with her family, and she runs away. She sleeps in a tree, and then goes to the store to buy some food, and her money is stolen right out of her pocket.

      Dream Five: Not sure how this happened, but I pretty much had the same dream twice, only this second version was a bit different. Serena's parents are splitting up or something. Her father moves out, and she goes with him, but her mom won't let her take her things out of the house. Her dad ignores her for the most part, and she's really sad and lonely. She's cold, and calls her mom to ask if she can just take one pair of socks to her dads because her feet are freezing. Her mother says no. The next morning, her dad sends her and her sister to the grocery store. They have a buggy full of canned foods, and they can't walk and carry them all, so they decide to push the buggy full of stuff home. There's a steep hill, and Serena's sister refuses to help push the buggy because she's one of those uber girly chics who refuse to do anything that might brake their nails. The sister then takes bitchyness a step farther, and climbs into the buggy claiming she's too tired to walk up the hill! The buggy starts going backwards down the hill and Serena can't stop it and is nearly run over by it before the sister finally hops out! When Serena gets it up the hill, she's crying. Inside her house, Darien shows up and gives her a gift for her birthday... and apparently it's shis birthday too! So she gives him a sweater or something she made herself. The gift he gives her is the ornament and a CD. She sees the ornament and says something like, "I'm sorry, I just don't get what this is?" Darien tells her to chill it's just something they there in the box when he bought the CD. But Serena says she loves it, and it feels like it's important to her and she was meant to have it, she's just not sure why it feels so familiar. The he tells her that he spoke to his guidance councilor about her, and the guidance councilor seems to think she's just waiting on him, so he wants her to know that he loves her, and he's ready when ever she is to run away together and start the rest of their lives.

      Dream Six: I'm at best buy to get a new Skylanders toy for my little boy (there's still ONE that we're missing, lol) I go to get my wallet out of my car, and some strange dude with a beard gets in my car. I ask him to get out of my car, and he refuses and starts laughing at me, so I start yelling at him until he finally gets out of my car. Then a heavy set blond guy (think the son from family guy, lol) gets in my car because he thought it was funny that I was yelling at the other dude. I yell at him and threaten to shove my foot up his ass if he doesn't get out of my effing car! He doesn't move, just laughs. So I open the trunk of the car, and I get out a stroller, and proceed to start hitting him with it. He just keeps laughing at me, he's not in any pain what so ever. I keep hitting him and he keeps laughing, I get so frustrated. Then I pull the stroller WAY back and hit him as hard as I can. That time it hurts, and he's all, "All right all right, chill woman, I'm getting out!" He gets out of my car and I fling the stroller at him and hit him in the back as he walks off. I tell him to think twice before he laughs at me again! Then I grab my money, and close the car and go into the store. Inside, there's a HUGE line waiting to get this toy. I hope in line, and spend a lot of time just standing there. I see a book nearby with a grey and brown pony on it looking at a muffin. I think it's a book about Derpy at first, and I get all excited, "Is that a new Pony book?!" but then I open it up, and I realize that what looks like ponies on the front cover is really a couple of bunnies on the inside. Damn. I close the book and put it back disappointed. I wait in line a bit more before I wake up.

    14. Wiz Khalifa's Birthday 4/5/12

      by , 05-04-2012 at 03:43 PM (Exosomniac)
      I remember being at a party type situation and somehow ending up on a stage with a DJ and various speakers etc. So I somehow was handed a microphone and was told by the DJ to "say a few words" so I faced a large crowd of dancing party-goers and began talking into the microphone (not sure what I was saying). I was just finished saying my "few words" when I was cut off mid sentence (my microphone broke I think) but any how the DJ continued playing music.

      Eventually I was on the dance floor, dancing with Wiz Khalifa, who told me it was his birthday. I remember red and green laser type light effects splashing over all the dancing DC's. Suddenly all the DC's on the dancefloor turned back to the stage and stopped dancing. Lil Wayne was on the stage and so all attention being paid to Wiz was lost. Wayne was introducing a new artist to his label. The artist took the mic and announced his name was dot-dot dash-dash (quite strange that my mind would produce a name like that for a rapper :S)

      that is all I remember from that night.

    15. More lucid dream fun 04.05.2012

      by , 05-04-2012 at 02:58 PM (The adventures of Vavanars Lucid World)
      I am in my hometown on one side of a bridge, made of wood, its in there in reality to, everything is in extreme detail, i would say, the same detail as in waking life, i realize instantly that this is a dream, i fly over to the other side of the bridge, when i land i rub my hands together and do some quick calculations, it has no effect, the dream is as stable as its possibly gonna get and everything is as clear as its going to get, i sit down and close my eyes and try to meditate a little bit, it has no effect, everything seems to be the exact way it is supposed to be and there is nothing i can do to change that. i fly up to my old school, everything is still at night and there are only a few skies, its a very clear night with beautiful stars. Inside the school there are a lot of people, i go into a classroom , wich is changed drammaticly from what it really is, and its A LOT bigger than what it really is, there are a lot of people in there, most of them got no faces at all, there is a black man and a white guy sitting with one of the tables, they are adults, they look at me and tell me, i am indeed in a dream, i ask them if they can help me remember every time i do have a dream, so i dont have to focus entirely on it on my own ( a LILD(Lucid induced lucid dream) ) They laugh, and say no, i ask why, they just keep on laughing, things start to loose some detail, but i go outside the classroom , and all of a sudden find myself outside again, where i started, there are some people chasing me, they can fly to with the help of an amulet they got around their neck, it is activated when their commander blows a whistle, i start flying away from them, superman style, i also try to summon a sword at the same time, i look away from my hand and i can feel the sword in my hand, i can sense how its going to be used, when i look in my hand tough, it isnt there, i also try to summon a banana by imagining how it tastes, and so on and so on, there is a guy next to me wich supposedly is my companion, i tell him to get me a piece of paper ( I intend to power up, by trying something i never did before) after a lot of papers wich are already filled with drawings i get a little piece wich you can actually write something on, i make a + and a - and start clicking the +, a lot... It helps me a tiny little bit, i land and theese guys attack me, i punch them all out and steal their neckleas, i also steal the whistle, i start flying, and then i blow the whistle, wich gives me a boost to my flying skills and makes me go faster, i then get onto this platform, there is theese guys wich is seemingly fighting against me, i seem to posses super strenght at this point, and i let him hit me as i feel nothing from it, i then throw him through a wall... He returns with his group of superheroes, wich is immune to thunder? And i dont seem to be able to defeat any of them, i also at this point have what is a false awakening, wich blends with the dream, i notice that it is a false awakening as im not tired, the second i open my eyes, i am pressed into my bed and am unable to move, there is also this blending light.. i go into another dream scene, where i do some backflips and such, still lucid and at the same place as at the begining of my dreaming... I then after a little while wake up for real.
