I'm on a bus, and I'm trying to get to back of it, but there are people who don't want me back there for some reason. Slowly I work my way back as other people get off. I have a daughter in this dream who isn't my daughter in WL. She looks like she's mixed with German, and her name is Nichole. Nichole sits by me and says she's going to grab her toys, and leaves for a moment. I move back a few more spots, and some guy smiles and says "I see you're getting better". Nichole comes back with a small toy set that looks like it could be a farm, or ranch, or something that has a lot of small pieces. I started setting up the toys on the box that folded out, and asked her how were we going to pretend. Something told me that depending on her imagination, this was going to go on forever.
I hear the phone ringing, and my pops bursts into my room and says it's for me. I pick up the phone and my cousin L is the voice on the other side. Odd....she never calls me. She asks if I was sleeping, and I tell her in a groggy voice "a little bit". Then I figure it's probably something important. "Why? what's up?", I say. She doesn't answer....finally I find myself sleeping in my bed wondering if I fell asleep while waiting on her reply, then I'm up in my bed.
Kick the Dog [DILD] I was hanging out on the street in front of my old elementary school with J who also went there and O who didn't, though he might have been D for some of this dream.... Anyway, the whole building had apparently been reconstructed and now looked much fancier than it ever has or probably ever will, so we were just checking it out and talking about it for a bit. At one point we decided to go back to my house though, and even though it's literally like right on the other side of the alleyway behind the street we were on, we were suddenly in my car driving there. We come up to the garage and I park in there, even though I don't use the garage in waking life, and my dad's car is in there too but the actual structure of the garage is totally different from normal. This doesn't throw me off though, I just get out of the car and see that my two companions have now become JB, this guy who I used to hang out with all the time when I first started smoking, and DW, this girl I saw a lot in middle school drama classes. I didn't pay much attention to this and just walked into the house. As I walked in, I noticed that the whole inside looked wrong too, and there were four little kids sitting on the couch. JB has a little brother and I guess because I just saw him I immediately assumed that we must have accidentally come to his house instead, even though it looked nothing like that either. Also, three of the kids were black like JB but one of them was white, but I still assumed that all four of them were his brothers. His little brother in waking life would recognize me so I guess I also assumed that they all would in this dream, so I just started apologizing and asked if it was their house, and they said yes. I asked them about my dad's car in the garage and the white brother says that it's his car. I just kind of chuckle and smirk and say um, you're like 12, which he actually looked much younger than. He starts to get a little mad, but around that time I had started becoming lucid. When I had walked in the four brothers had been sitting on a couch in front of windows facing the street outside of the house, but while I wasn't looking the outside scenery had changed. We were now very high up in some apartment building in the middle of a big city, which seems to be a pretty common environment for me in dreams for some reason even though I'm literally almost never anywhere like that in waking life. I notice that there's some random dog running around in the room now, and I decided to see if I could make something else phase through a wall just like I can, so I kicked it toward the window and it passed right through it with no trouble and fell off the side of the building. Next my friend N's dog showed up too and I kicked her out the window as well, but as I could feel her presence falling down the side of the building I reached out with my hands and remotely grabbed ahold of it. I started raising it back up and soon I saw her come back up just hanging in the air outside the window. This was my smoothest telekinesis that I could really remember, so I just directed her around to fly through the air and then made her blast off into the distance, and she looked pretty stiff the whole time, like moving a 3D model that was just in its awkward default stance before being able to run its walking or idling animation. After that I wasn't quite sure what to do, but a strange thing happened. This black line appeared down the center of my vision, and I reached my arms out to the side only to see copies of my arms, facing me, so when I moved my right arm the one I saw on the left moved, and vice-versa, and there was nothing in between them other than the line so it looked very odd, no body or anything. I started waving them around trying to leave patterns and parts of my arms would smear out or random things would happen like my fingers would start multiplying, and it looked pretty neat on this downtown sunset sky backdrop, but then the dream faded away.
I was in Japan, staying at a house full of these girls who I presume were idols. it was morning, and they had to go to the beach for some sort of concert or photoshoot or something. There was a bowl of green soup on the table in the kitchen. I picked it up and drank from it, for seemingly no reason (I didn't even know whose it was). Then I went upstairs, and heard a girl cry out "who drank my soup?" I went down into the basement and found two kids (not japanese) playing a wii game like Taiko no Tatsujin. They handed me a controller and I played with them. Then, the dream skips to nighttime, and people were getting ready for bed. The basement had a few couches people were laying on, as well as blankets on the floor. We were going to go to sleep when some guy was obsessing over something (I can't remember what it was). Everyone told him to knock it off. (this part of the dream is really blurry, I can't remember it well). I think this bad guy showed up, and afterwards people were losing touch with reality and pretty much losing their minds. A doorway opened in the wall, which we walked through, and there was a huge endless pit in the middle of the floor. Someone fell in.
#177 - 5AM - DILD - 2 of 2 I don't quite remember the dream before but it was a sex dream with my wife that turned into a FA where I realize that I am just humping the bed. I don't care it feels good but my face is buried deep in the pillows and I wonder why I can breath. I think that I should be having trouble. I roll over. Check for signs of a wet dream. Clear. I do a nose plug but it fails or I think it fails. I become lucid anyway because I recognize how dream like this all is. I get up and walk into the kitchen. The light is on. I see someone that looks like my mom in the sun room. She spots me and hides in a dark corner. I think of the task again. I say "Hey. Hey you." She wont come out. I spot a pitcher of water by the sink and I take it up and slash her. Her only reaction is now she has the mop bucket and shes coming around into the kitchen to splash me back. I laugh at her and say, "You're not real." She comes into the light and looks like a very creepy version of my mom. She forgets the bucket and answers, "That's insubstantial and inconsequential." She rattles off a bunch of other big words that my dreaming mind didn't catch (I have trouble just trying to remember the first part of that) then says, "My Aunt warned me about you. You're a maniacal energy draining vampire." The dream starts to fade and I need to stabilize. So I follow her suggestions and throw myself on her to suck, not her blood, but her energy. As I do so the dream fades. For a Breif moment is see blue energy entering my mouth as I suck in. Then I bite but not hard enough to draw blood. Then nothing. I have another false awakening but this time I put more thought into the nose plug. I cleanly blow out and laugh a little to myself. I'm very pleased that I didn't fall for the FA. This time I walk into the bathroom and through to the other bedroom. I am still having doubts that this is a dream and I pause at the mirror. My face looks blurred and distorted. Ya ok I really am dreaming. I laugh and continue. The door makes a realistic sound and I slowly tiptoe past my sons crib into the living room. That that point I hear him cry out both next to me and in the other room. I for a moment the dream fades and I can feel myself in bed. I focus and wait a second. I feel my feet plant back on the floor and I continue out the front door. I notice the porch light is on and its dark outside. I run into the street and see a car parked with tail lights lit up. (I forget the other task of finding Falkor and am still hung up on DC's) I shout, "Hey wait!" and run up to the driver side of the car. The dream starts to fade again but I focus on feeling the car and it slowly comes back as I continue with the dream. The window is down and it looks like someone is in the passenger seat but looks really comatose. I feel the driver seat and realize it is empty. Now the dream comes fully back. I can hear music on the radio. The seat is gray fabric and the engine is running. I decide this car is waiting for me and suddenly want to "drive" to China for the TOTY. I excitedly jump in the driver seat and floor it. I drive around some slightly familiar roads and then the dream starts getting too dark. I try flipping on the brights but it didn't help. I say to the dream. "Clarity please." Nothing. I say with more certainty, "It's daytime." Suddenly the scene switches to a view of some kids in a back seat riding along in the daytime. I focus and the view come around back to my POV and the road vividly visible in daylight. I don't worry about who's in the back seat. I figure its just more extras. Looking around I notice the terrain had changes significantly. I ask, "Is this China?" At that moment I see some palm trees. Then, I come over a hill and see a surreal scene with mountains coming right up to a beach and a blue ocean. I looks crazy but beautiful. I think, It's the beach maybe I'll do the Australia task. The road ends now and I drive over small hills and through ditches. When I some to sand and water I flip a toggle switch in the car and say, "Boat mode." Now the dream fades buy I can still hear the music on the radio. It's like some electric guitar instrumental but it sounds familiar like a theme song to some old sitcom. I hold on a bit longer and visualize being out on the open sea. It comes into vivid view just for a second and then I am hopelessly wide awake.

#176 - 4:31 - DILD - 1 of 2 I was driving along in the morning with someone in the back. I was telling them how sad I was that I had another failure and now its too late to go back to sleep and try again. I start thinking about what when wrong and why. I say, "Hell, I might even be dreaming right now." I do a nose plug. "I am dreaming!" I remember the task to tell a DC they aren't real. I don't think of whoever is in the car but see people driving by in the light traffic. I realize that I am stopped and fumble the door to get out. The street looks like North Main near the VFW and that tank they have parked out there. I run to one car but they keep driving and staring at me. I run the other direction and see a woman with her kids turning toward the VFW. I yell, "Hey! Hey lady!" She slows down and tentatively stops. Before I reach the car the dream fades. I try for DEILD. I hear myself singing. "Nose plug for the win." I stop startled. It sounded real but I can also hear the ambient sounds of the room. I wait. Now I feel vibrations. I try to move but my real body moves. I have heavy high. I visualize the first thing I think of. I see my hands so I start counting Huperzine A pills. The vibrations come back but then I hear the cat yowling. I go back and forth with the vibrations for a few minutes until I finally give up and DJ. I just couldn't go deep enough.

Dream recall from today's naps. I dunno what's up with dream length recently, maybe just bad REM timing or something. Dream 1(fragment): I was doing something at home then i went to bed. After a while i suddenly start having weird sensation, i open the eyes but before i can do anything else i wake up. Dream 2(fragment): I wake up and i am thinking about something then i take off headphones, still hearing binaural beats, thus realizing that i am dreaming, but dream fades out. Dream 3(fragment): I wake up and take off headphones, binaural beats still playing so i am dreaming, i get up and rub hands but suddenly the view goes weird and i can't move, dream fades out. Dream 4: I was in my bed trying to fall asleep, but suddenly dad came into the room and started making alot of noise walking around and annoying me. I pretended to be asleep but he started trying to wake me up saying something about windows. He then left and i opened eyes, there were alot of windows in the room, all open. Then dream ended.
Dream 1: I remember only the end part, but at least I remembered most of it. I was in our pool, playnig tag with my cousins, but our people was different. There was these platforms at sides of our pool, it was of a black metal. It stretched about 1 metre from the side over the pool, still at ground level. It had railings, same metal as the platform, It had vertical bars of metal and a metal cylinder fused at the top for grip. The cylinder had these black switches, it looked like black light switches found in your house. All of them where marked numerically "R1, R2, R3, R5 etc". Each switch teleports you somewhere in the pool or on the platform. While in the dream I thought if they were safe, like you wouldn't teleport onto something, then I thought, obviously it is, if it isn't he would never have them. I used these switched to teleport away from my cousin who was IT. At the last moment my cousin stripped her of her clothes and ran around on the platfrom as if we where still playing. Then I woke up. I could've DEILD easily, but it never came to mind. When I awoke I was pefectly still with my eyes closed. I thought about what the hell I just dreamed about. Soon I fell asleep again. Dream 2: I was on a large space ship, I was infront a heavy door. This was a video game, I could feel they Playstation controller in my hands, but I looked at no screen, I was watching in third person normally like in the game. I played as the four penguinsd from madagascar, I could switch control of of the current penguin to the next. Before opening the door I switched control among them and tried out their attacks separately. I decided to stay Kowalski (or however you spell it) and I opened the door. On the other side was a mini hall with another heavy door closed at the other end. The hall was packed with enemies. THey looked like a mechanical goo type thing, the lesser enemies had a green glowing disc for an eye, the middle was black like it's skin, it had these green circuit lines glowing across their bodies. Thei had no arms and had penguin-like feet. The larger enemies looks about the same but looked more shark-like. It stood on two legs and aslo had such a disc eye. It appeared to aslo have a fin on it's back. It bulked like a cartoon shark standing on legs. They also had teeth, though I can't remember how it looked. I used normal attacks like X and Square on the controller, they blocked it easily, then I pressed Triangle to see what happens. It was a much more faster attack, Kowalski used nunchucks in this attack. I easily swatted them it, ocassionally kowalski punched their nerves and flipped them upside down orogami style. While some lay vunerable like this I stabbed Triangle in quick succesion. On the bottom of my 'screen' I could see the Triangle siggn appearing like an combo, then it showed to go forward-down and press Triangle. I did this huge nerve punching and orogami folding-flipping move on one of them. Then I just whacked them all with rthe nunchucks untill their dead. I approached the door on the other side, with the other penguins following me. For some reason the penguins ahd horrible model quality put the enemies had these amazing quality. One of the shark creatures was stuck in the door, it had closed while he tried entering. He said,"Mind helping me?" I opened the door. "Thanks! you can go further on..I'll just follow closely behind." He sounded a bit shy but not at all evil. I moved left to another corridor. One of the lesser enemies scampered past me forwards. It had a yellow glowing halo above his head, though i could see a extension of something taped to it's back holding it up. I was curious to know what these things were. So I open the menu, It looked like Mass Effect's menu. I opened the codex and started searching from the bottom. I came across something else that looked interesting, though I thoughtt that those things would be in there. It said somethnig about Galaxy, I can't remember. I saw 3 things, first one I opened (can't remember all their names.) It showed a small explosion in space(it only showed a video, now narrative or description), but it soon became larger and eventually our galaxy's tendrils spread out from it and shaped our galaxy. For some reason this was overwhelming and I quickly switched to the next. I can't remember what the other two was, but I remember, after watching the other two videos I scrolled up to find the creature's file. I didn't have the chance to find it because my dad woke me up. Back on the road we go...
When I was there I stayed there for a long time and got to try out lots of stuff. This was a lucid dream. It turned non-lucid for a while, but I always realized that I was dreaming after a short while. I remembered everything crystal clear upon wakening up, saying or thinking to myself "wow that was a real nice lucid dream".. Anyway, lots of stuff happened. I was in my own apartment at first. It all started by me trying to get up and out of bed, knowing I was on my way into the lucid state. I struggled, took a few steps, tried to open my eyes cuz they were closed and everything was black. Soon I could open them. The state I was in was kinda fragil, meaning I felt that I easily could "go out" of the lucid state. But I fought to stay in it, choosing paths and places to go where I felt I would still be able to stay lucid. So I went to my balcony, where I've been before in lucid dream state. I tried the usual, jumped high, as soon as I started questioning if it was a dream i tried jumping to see if the physical laws where f*cked, and they were, so Yeah, I was dreaming... I did a lot of stuff, flying, sex, blabla, usual shit. But the one thing that im thinking most of now, 2 hours from wakening up, is this. I was at a basketball court, thinking it was another day from when I had the lucid experience I just did. I was talking to my buddy like "I had this nice lucid dream the other day, it was balblablalbal (everything I just had experienced). He came with a tip - "You should try playing basketball in your next lucid dream man!" Immidiatly after he said that I started wondering if I still was in my bed, dreaming, not lucidly though. So I tried to fucking slam dunk the shit out of the basketball thing. And oh my god it was a lucid slam dunk from outer space. Wonderful.
Most of what I wrote below is what I wrote at the time. "Dec. 12th - Dec. 13th I've been playing "The Saboteur" A lot lately. But anyway, The part I distinctly remember is when a Nazi standing in a checkout lane at Walmart told me to stop doing something in my awake life. I was lucid dreaming at the time too and I actually told him that I knew I was dreaming. I asked him to keep talking and he did. I don't feel like sharing all of the details. " (Now I do feel like sharing; This was speaking of mas--------on, Fill in the blank.) Next entry: "Dec. 21st-22nd (I'm guessing...) I remember a wedding at one part that went weird. The best man put the ring (Which was like a hoop earring) On his nose, I think the bridge took it off his nose and then saw it wasn't a wedding ring and ran off." I also wrote this little note later: "(Bridge? Did I mean Bride?)" Note - "His nose" = The best man's nose. Third dream: "Dec. 22nd-23rd (If you count falling asleep after midnight the 22nd) At one part I was Frodo Baggins in the Prancing Pony. It was weird, It went similar to the lines of the movie - Pippin said "Sure I know a Baggins, He's over there" And I may have went over to him. I'm not sure exactly how it all went, Some parts may have repeated but when I got the ring on I couldn't get it off and the eye was rather far away. What the heck is it with golden rings in my dreams lately? "

This is what I wrote shortly after I had this dream: "Great, I missed a few days and forgot some dreams. Dec. 11th - Dec. 12th (Presumably) I can't remember the order of how these things happened. I remember being at a curved wide path that was near the sea, Then at one part in my mom's bedroom she was taking one of my favorite music CDs, "Challengers" by The New Pornographers out of a CD player and she broke it after it was out of the player. The label wasn't correct on the CD, It had the album cover artwork on it. Then, the fragments of the CD were on the path and I found them near a rock. Later, There was a Bioshock 2 part and a whole room got flooded. I was presumably a Big Daddy without a helmet because I was looking for air. I looked and found some air but not much. Then, I think a little sister came up to me while I was still underwater and I adopted her, But I had a second op[tion - To set her attitude. I think I chose Y, Whatever that did. She said "If you want a specific attitude, You've got it" And disappeared. Then, I looked in a white fridge and there isn't much I can remember here except a dead dead bug or two that was trying to get to the ice cream compartment (That was on the fridge door) And there were also some little sister paintings or stickers below the dead bugs and a voice talked about the ice cream sandwiches. I opened the ice cream compartment, I'm not sure if I took any ice cream or not though. Then the last part I definitely remember was finding a 5 gallon water jug. I think I stuck my head in it and then took my head out and started filling it up with air, I may have been lucid dreaming at this point but I think I may have woken up right after this too." Notes: The ice cream compartment was on the fridge door. I think at the time, It was fairly recent when we'd started to get Mountain Valley Water so that's partially where the glass jugs come into play. Note added July 21, 2013: I had more than one dream involving Bioshock. Sometimes I'd be riding a cart from one section of Rapture to another and sometimes the darn track was broken underwater including the glass air tunnel, Leaving me to see a trip from one part of the track to the other off a rail!
That which is written below was written at the time. I posted my recollection of my December 8th dream and December 9th dream in the same reply to a thread on a different forum. (This is copied from a forum I frequent and the dreams from the night prior were posted in the same reply) Dec. 8th - Dec. 9th AAAGH I forgot parts and I had it fresh in my mind until I typed about the dreams I had yesterday! Anyway, At one point I realized I was dreaming and I think this may have been my first successful lucid dream! Anyway, Here's the parts I remember... In a store of some sort, Some woman told me to go away and I told her something like "I'm the star of the show here, It's my dream!" And she ignored me. Then, Later I was in an area with picnic tables with my parents (I think) And I had a Gibson Explorer Reverse guitar. Oddly though I was calling it a Firebird even though I know from the shape that it was an Explorer! (The two guitars are similar to one another) Then Phil X comes out of nowhere and I offer him the opportunity to play my guitar and he did, Then he starts talking about the guitar. That part was awesome. Next, I think my parents were going on a trip and I was running alongside the van until it turned into a Team Fortress 2 Gravel Pit "A" style area and someone stopped me. From there on it turned into more of a nightmare. I'm not sure of everything that happened, However I was still lucid dreaming to a point and I was in a prison like place. The people in cells were dead, dying or should have been dead. I remember at one part I went in a cell and someone was in a big box with an air hose. I opened the box to find a small skeleton that was similar to a lizard. I told him he should just die and so he did. Later, I thought I woke up because my mom woke me up going through the room but instead it was a false awakening. I went back to dreaming, I remember thinking that I wouldn't be able to lucid dream then but I may have kept on lucid dreaming. I'm not sure of the details from here on. Anyway... I watched the Harry Potter Half Blood Prince movie yesterday so that may have had a bit of an effect on the last part...
Updated 09-02-2013 at 01:04 AM by 61868
All of these are what I wrote at the time. Dec. 5th - I remember dreaming up some guitar riff that I liked but can't remember. Dec. 6th - I can't remember much except that at one point an Xbox Live friend (Who removed me from her friends list) Was suddenly on my friends list again. I'll try to remember more. December 7, 2009 The earliest part I remember is where I was punching Andy Partridge of the band XTC for whatever reason. I can't imagine why other than to get attention from him. Anyway, Two of his band mates (One who's name was Roger, Who doesn't exist but may have been a stand in for Dave Gregory because my dad's name is Dave, The other who I assume was Colin Moulding) Helped him out and started attacking me. Then Roger threw an explosive soda pop can (I read the manual for Zombies Ate My Neighbors before I fell asleep) And I went to stand on it but it didn't blow up. Then Andy gave me an offer to go for a drive with him and I took up the offer, Hoping to pick up my best friend on the way (Who got me into the band XTC in the first place and who lives several states away from me in reality) And I started talking about Andy's music, How my best friend got me into XTC and how I'm glad he did and how I'm going to get six more XTC albums this Christmas. Then, All of a sudden Andy turned into my dad by the next time I looked at him and details start getting a bit fuzzy around here. Our car went flying past an intersection once, Almost hitting a bus which was driving on the wrong side of the road. After we stopped past the intersection we came to the conclusion that we couldn't have stopped in time for the intersection. Maybe WE were driving on the wrong side though because Andy Partridge lives in the UK? Anyway, Other than driving around this part of the dream ends here. Part 2 This turned into a Left 4 Dead 2 style dream. In a Swamp Fever style area I ended up being the last survivor, Who seemed to be similar to Ellis and Nick. My teammates died, I got away from a zombie horde and I'm guessing that I was going to rescue the survivors from a closet or something but instead I was holding a cheeseburger on a plate, Then there was a picture of the burger on the plate and it was the last thing I saw before I woke up. Dec. 7th - Dec. 8th The earliest part I remember is when my dad and I were in a trailer court. The reason for this is likely because earlier this year we found a guy's wallet and returned it to him and he lived in a trailer court. Anyway, IWe may have been there to return the wallet in my dream but the earliest pert I definitely remember is when we went to visit some woman in a one room trailer that had windows all over every wall. There was also a mattress or two, Maybe three on the floor and all her stuff was on the floor since she had nowhere else to put it. I don't think there was a door, it was just always open. Anyway, After I left it turned into a Modern Warfare 2 meets Zombies Ate My Neighbors style game, Only instead of there being a bunch of monsters there were just chainsaw guys. So we're in this trailer park meets scrapyard level place and I'm just playing the game... And that's it for this part of the dream. Part 2 This was a Scooby Doo on Zombie Island style dream. I can't remember much about it except maybe being outside for a bit then going to the sacrifice room, Then going to the staircase that has a passage underneath it that leads to the sacrifice room... And then maybe seeing the Scooby Doo gang in there...
Below in between the quotation marks is what I wrote at the time. "Dec. 4 The only parts I remember are towards the end. It was in a park near a bay of water and a bank was going to be built there. A kid and Shaquille O'Neal (I think it was Shaq, I can't be sure... Does this remind you of the "Kazaam" Movie?) Didn't like it so Shaq went in at night to presumably destroy the place before it was finished being built. Unfortunately for him, He was caught by a watchman or someone who chased him out the door and Shaq's legs were caught in a tape measure as he was lowered down from the door (Where there used to be a path) And he was being shocked by electricity. It actually felt to me like he was being shocked too. Weird... " The path was a dirt path. I'm not sure how far he was "Lowered down".

Below in-between the quotation marks is what I wrote at the time. "Now, for December 3, 2009. Again, I don't remember all parts. The earliest part I remember right now is my best friend was at my house and I advised him not to step in dog dirt in the hallway as he went to bed. Then, At one part I thought A. C. Newman, Lead man for The New Pornographers (My favorite band) Wrote the song Electric Version Because he visited the town where I live. This is absolutely ridiculous because none of my favorite bands ever come within 50 miles of here, I live in Nowhere, Pennsylvania... Later, I had a lucid dreaming part but it didn't last long and I had trouble moving. I didn't make it far before I either woke up or stopped lucid dreaming. More to come. " My dog did do that in the hallway in waking life. I now don't think it's so ridiculous that perhaps Carl Newman did write the song because he visited here; I don't know if he did or not. The LD part was fairly early for me. I was stepping around outside, Excited to move and I think I may have fallen down in the dream.
