(This is from September 23rd, yesterday.) There was some kind of gathering for a Christmas pageant. It was in the middle of the desert and surrounded by a chain link fence, so I climbed the fence and jumped over to join in the Christmas festivities. There was a stage with a bunch of people practicing a nativity play, and they were singing Christmas carols. I wanted to be in the play to play one of the angels, but then I heard the director say that the play would involve a daily commitment, and I knew I couldn't come every day since I technically didn't even belong here. I walked among the crowd of people around the stage, the actors singing "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" and I sung along with them as did most of the crowd. After a while I remembered that I had a huge collection of reindeer hats and I wondered if I could sell them there, so I put one on my head. But as I was adjusting it, someone on a megaphone said they were going to have a contest where you had to tackle the guy in the antlers to win a prize. I immediately took off my reindeer hat because I didn't want to be mistaken for the guy they were supposed to tackle. A person came up to me and said they were having problems finding parking spaces for all the cars coming to the pageant, and he asked if I could help out by putting down markers showing each parking spot. I climbed back over the fence and started putting down markers, and every time I put down a marker, a car would appear out of nowhere and park there immediately. I was in this camp, it was sort of like a colony, there were booths set up all along the bare dirt ground and festive-looking gypsy caravans around. All the people in the colony were seamstresses and tailor, and they all had different "animal attributes". Like there were people who were cat-people, who had cat ears and a tail and claws, and there were rabbit-people who had the fluffy bunny tail and bunny ears, etc. I was a cat-person and a novice seamstress. There was a celebration going on, and we pulled out a giant dragon pinata the size of a car, and everyone hit it with sticks until it exploded. But instead of candy, little miniature versions of clothes spilled out. They were like doll clothes, but we used mini clothes as sort of patterns to make actual clothes, so they were very valuable. Everyone got down and collected some loot, I remember picking up a mini plaid shirt and a weird pair of pants that had one leg a long jeans leg, and one leg a short-shorts leg. I thought it was very odd so I showed it to people saying "Look at these weird pants I found!" but none of them seemed interested. As I was scouring the ground, I saw a piece of paper that had about ten pairs of mini-pants glued to it, and I knew that wasn't part of the loot, it was a part of someone's portfolio. So I picked it up and I went over to a friend of mine, who was a rabbit-person with shoulder-length dark hair and glasses, and asked her if she knew who it belonged to. She took it and looked at it, and said it belonged to another person whose name was Kat, and was a cat-person like me who had grey cat ears and grey hair, and looked very anorexic. She gave me the paper back and I took it over to Kat. However, when I gave it to her, we both noticed it wasn't the same pants I'd found on the ground, it was a paper with a couple dresses on it! We realized my rabbit-friend had stolen her pants designs and switched them with some old dress designs. Kat was super pissed off but didn't want to confront her, so she stormed over to my friend's caravan tent, which was bigger than everyone else's and looked more like a two story house. She said she was going to climb up the side and through the window to see if her designs were in there, proving my friend stole them. I didn't want any fights to break out, so I whined and begged her not to break into the tent and said we could all work this out civilly. Kat would not listen and climbed up the side. I ran over to my rabbit-friend and told her Kat was going into her home to find the designs, but she didn't seem to care. I urgently told her she could easily run into her home from the front and beat Kat into the house, but she seemed to want Kat to find the designs. I think they had some kind of beef with each other and were just looking for a reason to fight. A dream involving Bill Nye but I can't remember what it was about. I think he was yelling at me about something. Yosemite Sam said he could stop my seizures by operating on my brain, and for some reason I thought that was a great idea so I got onto the operating table. He gave me anesthesia but not enough to knock me out completely, so I was still conscious and talking while he cut my head open I just couldn't feel anything. I heard the sounds of drilling and the vibrations, and then I saw him pull out a piece of my brain, it was like a little sphere of brain matter and reminded me of the Brain Surgeon from Dexter. He even put it in a little jar just like it. But I was really happy thinking I would never have seizures again, and then he sewed my skullcap back on and told me not to move my head around too quickly or the stitches would fall out.
This was my first time actually being able to do a lucid dream on purpose. And it just so happened to be a nightmare that I've had before. It was middle of the day I was sitting in a medow with a pond with my right foot in the clear water and suddenly the sun was setting and it started to get cooler I got up and was starting to walk away from the water when suddenly a dark shadow was looming over me. I didn't turn around, but the hair on my arms and back of my neck were standing on end and I started to run to the house. There was a large Weeping Willow and I nearly tripped over the root caught myself before I could trip and I ran into the back door...like literally ran into the back door before I was able to open it and slam it close. As soon as I slammed it shut whatever was chasing me slammed into the door. I ran up the stairs, ran down a long hallway and I could hear heavy footfalls on the stairs. I stopped at a small door opened it, and fell down a long dark tunnel and into dark blue water, I could only see a little past my chest but other than that the water was dark. I heard whatever it was that was chasing me make a horrible growling noise and I dove under the water and swam through another tunnel where I came up for air there was a table with a chest on it, a small night stand with an old school tv with the rabbit ears on it. I don't remember what was on the tv, but as soon as I got to the chest I woke up. Just like always. Does anyone know what this means I've been having this nightmare for the past year, the house is always the same as well as the tree, but everything else changes.

Morning of September 24, 2013. Tuesday. We are living in a different house, seemingly some sort of apartment that is somewhat like the King Street boarding house except that the area that would otherwise be the downstairs foyer is extended out into a much larger living area, oriented east and west. At one point, a light-haired young man comes in from his own entrance downstairs at the east side of the building, yet it seems the staircase is part of a larger room of our own living area as I am able to look up and see him walking up the steps. He yells really loudly to someone as he is walking up the steps and I hear his friend upstairs yell back. They are still talking at a ridiculous volume even when right next to each other. I am very annoyed. It reminds me of people in real life who talk as loudly as possible even though the other person may be close or even right next to them - have never made much sense of why people are like that (even when I was a child), and it is not when the person is angry, either. It is just another way to impose, while having no self-control or respect for others, I guess. However, I take an odd approach to how I confront them. One of them comes downstairs again. I say (not aggressively), “Could you please stop shouting? There are other people who do not want to hear it.” I seem to be implying to him that I personally do not mind all the yelling. Strangely enough, he does not get angry. We have a somewhat lengthy and friendly conversation before he continues out of the building. I seem to be in my own place, near the middle of the living room, and he is in his own place by his front door at the bottom of the stairs, even though we seem to be in the same general living area (even the same room), yet living in our own separate homes at the same time - a scene/environment that would not make any sense in real life other than perhaps as with an apartment building with a shared court or similar area for such as hanging clothes or parking or such. Time passes and things are picked up by an “invisible force” and thrown against the wall, including some of our children’s toys, such as Lego blocks. The furniture is not disturbed that much and I also feel a slight breeze as the curtains are swept back and torn somewhat, like as with larger claws - but I still do not feel very alarmed. I speak out so that my wife and kids (who are in other rooms) are aware of the events. “It’s a poltergeist,” I say, rather unemotionally, informatively, and with authority, but as if it is not that big of a deal at all. I notice that the other man has returned and is in my family’s living area now. There is also a (fictional) hallway that runs north and south along the east wall of the foyer. I now realize that the other two younger males are ghosts, but usually not all that mischievous. He (the one that had used the stairs) makes a comment about how he has “been like this for awhile” as if he is uncertain of his place in life. I look at the east wall of the hallway near where there is also a door. The other (dark-haired) ghost seems to be having problems getting through the wall downstairs just to the left of another actual door. His hands come out, glowing green, creating a somewhat interesting unknown emotion (not fear). I make a note of it to my family as if we are watching a performance at a circus or music venue. I go over and help him by pulling on his hands to help him complete his act of going through the wall. The two ghosts are thankful for my help. I even throw a few things around (not in any violent way, just sort of tossing a few unbreakable objects about) supposedly to help them gain confidence in knowing what to do in their apparent new roles as “bolder guys” (poltergeists) so that they can do more of what they are supposed to be doing as ghosts. I then hear some sort of instrumental music, sort of like a harpsichord, but it seems to be coming from an iPhone that one of the ghosts has(?) Eventually, I am aware there are words to the song but I only hear the first few lines, something about waiting at a bus stop and the weather being nice and sunny (from a ghost’s perspective or as light coming in through the window of an old dusty room) as I wake. Even though I was annoyed by their shouting at first, ironically, I come to “understand” that the poltergeists are normally less loud and annoying than living people in the neighborhood. Oddly enough, before I actually took any notice, the last three dreams on here (before mine - this being in reference to the dream journal site only) include some of the same scenes or details (not all of which I even included in this shorter entry anyway - but this has happened quite often before and I do not always comment on it): Exorcism 2 Dragonflies Grandmother’s Haunted House
9/24/2013, 11:38-5:50 I couldn't sleep, so I read a book. Despite that (or maybe because of it), I remembered one dream. Dream 1: I was in a bohemia interactive rpg (eg. Fallout 3, Skyrim). I needed to go talk to a bunch of characters to finish the game. I remember a wizard, a guy, and a woman. I had to do tasks for each of them. The woman was in a gazebo, and the wizard was in an apartment building. After I finished the game, I killed everyone. The end.
Lucidity Dreams Real Life Side Notes Dream Fragments Opinion Last night I dreamt I was lucid. I was actually flying with another person, who then told me I was lucid. When he landed, he got someone to chainsaw his legs off so that it looked like he was stood in the ground. They asked if I wanted to try and I said yes. As he was about to cut my legs, I lost my nerve and said "how can I be sure I'm lucid.?" They told me to fly up again and that lucidity was the only way I could do this. I was really scared as he went to cut my legs and I was screaming, then as he brought the chainsaw down and made contact, he made a buzzing sound with his mouth and the chainsaw was fake. They all found this extremely funny at my expense. I had other more recall too, getting trapped under a crane jib in the mud and thinking I was dead, being in the public toilets and finding someones shopping, which I helped myself to. They we're all shoes, loads of them and not good ones either. The best I could find were rigger boots. A young lad taking the piss out of two gays in a cubicle, when i asked him what they were doing, he made the hand to mouth motion that is universal for blow job. We both laughed at them, shouted fags and ran out off. As a side note, my dream recall has been terrible of late, however for the last few nights I've been watching two short videos just before bed that combine suggestion and subliminal messages and my recall has jumped right up again, including last nights dream of being lucid. So I'm gonna stick with that for a while. If you want a link, drop me a line.
Dream 1(fragments): I was in some video game and we were defending some place, there was something about zombies. Dream 2(fragments): I was in some outdoor area with a team of people, there was something going on and we had to fight someone and soon we have reached some foresty area. Here we started chasing some pirate that was turning the place into minecraft-like gravel somehow.
On a bit of a dry spell, probably due to not getting as much sleep. Usually 5-6 hours. In last 4 days only got 1 fragment in my paper log. Something about creating/play testing some video game. Also, recalled part of a dream where I was talking to one of my friends, but I was wearing only shorts, and remember feeling self-concious about it in a negative way.
away a few days, catching up... 9/21/13 1115 515 SSILD. prior to wbtb dreamed of looking at houses in O hills...several were old and ugly..last one old but interesting with long lot mostly in back. It was steep and wondered what could do with it...sliding down hill on cardboard but need something to stop you safely at bottom. After wbtb wife & I are getting our cars at a big wide parking lot where we parked on different ends. I lose track of her and wonder if she headed back already. She eventually comes by and I say or think where has she been? DILD super realistic courtyard or quad makes me lucid. Fades at some point back to partially awake and vibrations DEILD but seem to lose awareness before gaining it back in a room with a woman ~28-32 sitting in front and to the left of me. She looks back and everything is so vivid I know it is a dream. She is fairly attractive with somewhat squinty eyes..she mostly looked eastern European. I reach over to her and run my hands over her shoulders, arms, back and hair as I am amazed how vivid she is and as a way stabilize. I then kiss her and the scene goes in and out of darkness but I just continue to make out with her touching her breasts and kissing and not worrying about the visual...feeling like I can get it back or teleport. I believe this leads to me in bed with wife or this was a FA. Wife & I are fooling around her top is off. We are in a smaller bed and house is laid out like my childhood home in E...but for some reason her mother & A are coming through the door..lose lucidity in here somewhere. I pull up the covers to cover my wife. Little A is playing around and tugging on mother in laws dress and almost pulls it off. They are looking for a boardgame and take it and leave. I find 2 more pieces and bring it out and that is when I see the layout of the house is like childhood home: hall, our two rooms to the right, brothers, then mine@end. Wife & I were in what was my brother's room. I went to my room to get or give the 2 game pieces. 9/22/13 1130+ 510 wake very drowsy. dream before waking up to go to the bathroom: me and son at some warehouse, son goes to the bathroom, there's an off limits area (marked as such) that goes upstairs to a loft I guess and for some reason I'm trying to clean some oil off the floor. People come by, they said there is a tour on the way and someone asks if they can take pictures in the bathroom. Son says well after I'm done. Later dream, I become lucid seeing a female wearing bra and leaning towards me I can see nipple on right side under the top edge of the bra . I cup her breast and we make out. Wake to static I turned it into waterfall again and started thinking I could visualize that I am under smaller waterfall and could go out and hopefully be at top of angel falls and dive off but it fades. Back in bed DEILD start floating very cool feeling once again this time I stay in my room and looking towards my bed I decide to take a peek to see my sleeping body(like CL did recently) but I am NOT laying there! Means anything? I start to think maybe I'm actually awake looking at my bed and do the nose plug several times every time I can breathe through my nose and I think it is the coolest thing I don't believe I've ever done a nose plug RC during a dream without it fading. I fly off to go see Girl Friday and she is in bed and i take off all my clothes and get in but it starts to fade and this time I am very awake in bed . I try to re enter the dream and then to re enter any dream but all I'm getting at this point are dreamlets. Some very interesting ones kind of like when I take a nap.

non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening I'm on a cruise on the US East Coast. There's a global warning of an asteroid to hit Earth in the next hour and a half, followed by a huge tsunami that will hit the US East Coast. People freak out. I feel mad because I have the clear impression they knew about this a long time in advance but chose to warn people only when they could hardly do anything about it. Many people on smaller boats nearby head to land, but there's forest for kilometers and by foot they won't reach far enough inland to escape the tsunami. I don't know what to do, the boat crew left and took some people with them, but I stayed behind with many others. My mother appears with her boyfriend and tells me he is taking her on his yacht to shore, where he has a private jet and they can fly away to escape. But he can only take her, does not accept to take me along. I tell my mother "you should go and save yourself" to which she doesn't offer any resistance, so she says goodbye and leaves. (My actual mother would never, ever do that!) Saddened by my mother abandonment, I accept my faith. I go to the dining room where people drink and eat and cry and sing and I decide to join them and embark on a cake eating frenzy. There's like half a dozen varieties on the tables and I eat two or three pieces of each. It feels so soothing. Then I meet a guy and start talking to him and he has some knowledge of sailing, so I have the nuttiest idea. Why don't we go far enough on deeper sea to avoid most of the wave (as it forms near the shore) and turn the nose to the incoming tsunami (it's what they do in the movies to try to navigate super storms and giant waves, right?). We gather a team of 4 or 5 people who still want to fight for their lives and we head to the ship's bridge and manage to put the ship facing the wave. When it comes, it's a fucking big wall of water and we hold on to whatever we can. I tie myself up to some metal tubes with rope, but close to an exit, so in case we roll over, I'll try to swim away. But I think the ship survives. Not sure, 'cause then I wake up.

Im am on a cruise ship with my mom going around the world and were at open sea. I remember someone is ordering us to get back to our cabin but my mom puts them in there place and we continue walking around wherever we feel like it. When we get to a part in the cruise ship where theres a big opening and you can see a giant pool settings spread across from one side of the ship to another with water falls and fountains in the middle of the pools which was amazing because my mom and I really enjoy pools. The giant pool was being over looked by a balcony where there was another smaller pool at which is where we were located at the time. So then I offered to go get the camera in the room to take pictures with it and she stayed waiting by the pool side. When I went to go get the camera I saw that the cabins we were in were like a mini tent that you sung yourself in and a storage area right above where you sleep like it you were in an airplane and you store your carry on. So I couldnt find the camera I remember I found myself with Frank and we were exercising running up and down the stairs like if we were outside the cruise ship but it looked like a park sort of environment which was really moody. Then I remember I told Frank lets go get Mirsa to hit up the pool after working out and then out of nowhere I was like on auto-pilot but I can see Frank and Mirsa in my thought talking and Mirsa was crying on Franks shoulder saying why she didnt feel appreciated and that every time they go out Mirsa really never felt accepted or valued so then Frank started saying sweet things to her about all the memorable moments they had together at many events. Which kind of touched my heart in the way because Frank really didnt know she felt that way so then I left them together with a warming glow and then woke up.
Here I am ten feet away from making a deciision that can take me on a new road down the journey of my life. For years I have struggled with the inhibition of being too lazy to make a difference even to the most important thing to me: My own life. I stand here ready to walk forward; high and proud, However this is no dream of the fadish and unexplored territory of my own subconscious. No. This is a dream which I wish to explore and dive into in my conscious realm. So with this I mark my official first dream journal entry, but there is a small difference. My following entries will ensue the wonderful discoveries and patterns of my unknown, but THIS entry sets the tone which I will take my first steps from the waking world and take the living dream i have stashed in my pocket to the realm where this dream can grow and evolve into something limitless and extraordinary. This will be the only time I write about taking a dream into my mind and not taking my dreams out of my mind. I leave this thought as an inspiration and realisation that anything you dream can be done and anything you do can be dreamt. Let the dreaming begin.
Monday, 9/23/13 Last night, bed 2am - 8:40am I'm traveling with group of people by car. Before we go on a trip, we stop in a large bar. There is nobody else there. Bunch of empty tables and a bar. one of our group sits in the back at the table, I'm at the bar with another 1-2 people. We are talking to a female bartender. We wan't to try some beer. This idea just occured to us and I'm excited. She says "I thought you are gonna have beer when you get to Prague". We say "yeah, but this one is for the road". She hands us a handwritten list of beers she has. I ask for a dark one. She points to one on the list. She also points out a red beer and some american beer. Name has 3 letteres, H and X. We rule that one out right away. So she hands me a small glass of beer. I can feel the glass in my hand being warm. I'm like "it's warm". It was lukewarm, almost warm. She says "well, it's room temperature". But I say no, it's warmer than that. I have a taste and it tastes sweet and salty. And like a beef soup or gravy. It was pretty bad. I see the bottle the sets on the bartop, and it's a 750ml, clear glass wine bottle, with some clear liquid. (Man, my first dream beer and it tastes like this!)
So i just went to take a nap turned music on. sleepd about 20 mins and one moment when i just in ym dream dont know how i went to bathroom closed door ( BUT I DIDNT LOCK) to take shower i heard some ppl came in house.. so i try to check if door closed by opening it and someone opened it and laughed.. then i realised im dreaming .. i was like going to wake up but i went hard and continued the dream what the fuck but.. i went again to this bathroom and i was eating gum.. what i saw was 2 friends of me inSIDE THE BATHROOM cooking and i took my gum and throw it on the food where he was cooking on the pan , some potatoes and meat and i said good , he said yess good.. and i woke up LOL.
Dream recall from today's WBTB/nap. Was pretty low awareness lucid and i barely could do stuff. Dream 1: I am at home and i can't fall asleep, and i am sleepy, i am trying for a while in different rooms. There are alot of pillows and my headset turns into pillows. More stuff happens, i am still super sleepy and family is leaving to somewhere, i go to yet another room and it's very warm here, also there are weird scents and no windows. Then as i try falling asleep i notice sconce on the wall turning into some robotic being, it extends it's arm towards me and for some reason i can only barely move, i still manage to fight though. Shortly i wake up, and there's another robotic being floating around the room, which then attacks me, i fight a bit and dream fades out. I wake up again and there's someone in the room, dream fades out. Wake up again, feeling in the back, i finally managed to get up, someone's shouting about something and there's someone behind me dream kinda destabilizes completely and i lose lucidity and then shortly wake up. Dream 2(fragment): I was playing some video game.
