I was in some competition. It started with teams & then it got down to 2 people. There were food competitions where logic was so out of the window & abstract. It was hard to understand let alone explain. No lucids lately & I just don't get it. Which is surprising because I saw the documentary "The Nightmare" on Netflix about sleep paralysis & my husband got a glimpse of the kinds of things that I have endured do to sleep paralysis. For me I believe there is something in our bodies to keep us from acting out our dreams but there are definitely other entities present around us all of the time. I would highly recommend this documentary.
I'd led my friends into an abandoned house to hide from the group of rebels. They've found us now, five rebels armed to the teeth against six or seven unarmed civilians. Well. And me. "What's this?" The leader sneers. "Snivelling collaborators, hiding with the trash?" He smiles, and it's an awful little thing. "Get up and fight us!" "You still outnumber us, after all," says one of the rebel women, a smile in her voice. That won't do. The group of civilians are removed with a mental gesture, hustled through the aether. It takes me a moment to think of a place to set them down, where there won't already be a crowd. I settle on the dirt pile next to the Ixburg house. I blink, coming back to the now-emptier abandoned house. The silence has been drawn like a bow string, the rebels staring at me. "Seems fairer now," I explain. The leader swears. "You don't understand," he says, anger colouring his voice. "When our enemies came in and overthrew the last regime, they turned my country into HELL. They needed diamonds to fulfil the promises they made to their allies; they worked the citizenry like dogs. This is our chance to set things right." "Of course," I say mildly. "By marching into people's homes and murdering families in cold blood. Setting things right. Definitely not starting on the same track your enemies did." Face red, the man shouts a war cry and charges at me.

I just woke up so sad. In my dream, I was working at an editing place similar to mine. I had been assigned to edit a video my family was doing and Papa was the producer. It was a dream so I didn't really care about the video. After being assigned it I instead headed out into nature and watched the cycle of life as a momma predator and cubs were in the jungle. The momma was killed, and the cubs roamed around until foxes ate them. At one point while filming them, a gorilla came sprinting from behind a tree trying to kill us for proximity. Suddenly I was in the world's largest warehouse. Our filming team was checking it out, 200 foot ceilings and rows of items going all the way up, the place had no end. We were filming in there when the lights went off and we were attacked by gorillas again. Simon got extremely mad because we didn't warn him as a prank, and he turned into a gorilla and went after me. I somehow dropped all of my money in the chase, and it went into a pit in the factory. I lost $2 million. I went in to work to do some stuff and begin earning it all back. The guys at work sat me down, and as gently as they could said my grandfather disliked the video I made and that I could not come back in tomorrow. I was floored. I had just lost all my money and now I was fired for being a shit editor. I flew away, jumping around the warehouse fucking shit up and crying. I left into the night, and found a random party. I tried to join but was too sad. The next day I went back in to work and strolled right into the office. The guys were there and they were surprised to see me. They were interviewing a new kid. I told him I was sacked and he was replacing me, and that before I go I have to know exactly everything I did wrong and how I can improve. They told me some stupid rambling explanation that made no sense and was just purely insulting. I left even more pissed. There was a group of nice girls nearby that I tried to party with, but one of them was an editor as well and knew that I was shit and fired and kept trying to make me feel better. It was so humiliating. They stopped at an apartment block for a massive Jam, we were on a block where every single building had a party on every single floor and people were dancing in the streets. I just simply continued walking in my leather jacket at night, and strolled into the darkness. There was a building that had a tunnel through it for the sidewalk, and it was lit up internally with a beautiful white glow that played off the puddles around it, it made for a beautiful shot and I noticed it and thought I should use it as a film location. In the last moment of the dream, a girl from the group ran up to stop me from leaving. She tripped and spilled chocolate milk all over me. I got even more upset. I basically teleported back to work where I could shower, and emerged to see the guys confused and worried why I was still there. I said "Didn't you know? You didn't just fire me and fail to teach me what I did wrong, but yesterday all of my money was stolen by a gorilla. My life is over." They asked me what I would do now, and I said eat 6 bags of mushrooms and commit suicide. Then my alarm went off. I think I'll go back to sleep and try to start the day on a better note.

It was a cold, overcast day. First I saw an entrance to my house, then I was in my kitchen. All my family has gathered there. Everything felt really big and going really quickly, I was small.
+(f) I'm driving and walking through narrow winding steep roads and paths in a suburban environment + chasing cat outside CH on street/dark, cat runs up stairs and I try to grab it it runs away down neighbor driveway and I grab its hind left leg and try to hold one while it tries to keep getting away + long discussion of API planning I'm working with engineering group and I ask for their plans + at party in house there is a man holding his hand up with some (squished?) mosquitos on it. Some people ring the doorbell and I try to look through the peek hole and don't see anything, I open the door and friends come in, I'm saying that my kids won't like the ratio (of men to women), then I realize SD (male) friend is approaching me for a friendly cheek kiss so I lean in for it and then move on
It's about 9 in the morning, been up since about 5. On the bed, I'm drifting in and out of consciousness, wanting to sleep. I have some awareness of the process and start experiencing hh, notably palpitations, which I allow to be, as I know my heart isn't really beating like that. I keep my awareness relaxed and distant and notice the images floating around behind my eyelids. A table comes into view and then it becomes more and more solid. I'm touching the table and then I realise I'm there in a room. The house is similar to the one I'm really in but also different. I look at my hands and try to stabilise but I feel very floaty and wispy. I notice some furniture -- a mantelpiece with some ornaments on it. I decide I'll conjure up a girl (I really should work on my self control). I float around the house quite excitedly and expect a woman to be behind a door. I enter to find a bedroom. It's very messy. There's nobody inside but there's a bed with a mess of duvets on it so I think she'll be in the bed. However, I don't feel stable enough so I decide to open my real eyes and the dream ends.
Non-lucid, Lucid, [Commentary written while awake] I'm in the office building complex north of Disneyland. I'm there to be cast in a show or parade there. [I don't specifically remember becoming lucid, but I do remember being lucid.] I'm floating around up by the ceiling, which is a high ceiling, when the casting director walks into the room below me. When I see her enter, I float down so I can talk to her. "Hi," I say while descending. She says I've been cast in [whatever show or parade it was], and to go and change into my costume for the show. I head out of the building to do so. Outside the building, I stand on a stretch of grass that ends at the top of a concrete block wall, about twelve feet high, at the bottom of which is a sidewalk. I need to get down onto the sidewalk to get back to my car. I know I can do a controlled fall, so I do. I jump off the top of the wall, control my descent speed, and land easily on the sidewalk. When I get back to my car, I realize I don't have any underclothes with me, and I can't be in the performance without any. I realize I'll have to go to a Walmart or Target and buy new ones, but I don't even know where there is one around here. I decide to set off and go looking for one. I'm at a freeway onramp, on my bicycle, still on my way to find the nearest Target or Walmart. [Why am I on my bicycle and not in my car? I dunno.] The onramp runs next to a high, tan-colored wall. On this wall, about a quarter to a third of the way down the ramp, there is a traffic sign that reads "NO BICYCLES ON FREEWAY." I start bicycling down the ramp, but when I get to the sign, I read it, sigh, and say, "All right, fine. This is me, not riding my bicycle on the freeway." I get off my bike, turn around, walk it back up the onramp, and start looking for another route that doesn't involve taking the freeway.
D:1 My aunt Jill & I are kids again. She's only a couple of weeks older than me. We are in what looks like my childhood bedroom but it's hers & it has another window in it. We are covering the windows & hiding from people but I don't know who. Non-lucid. D:2 There are lots of people & I'm walking through a college. Mike is with me. We walk into an auditorium. I can't shake the feeling that this is some kind of set up. We start walking into a classroom but it's like the ones with hard wood seats & the rows are like a theater. The professor is walking slowly down to the front from all of the way in the back. He never quite reaches the first couple of rows. Katie, my grandkids aunt is in the front row. She's a little younger than me. Mike looks at her her & leans down towards her & she is looking at him different. I feel someone lean forward from the second row to tap me on the arm & it's Christian. He is my oldest friend & I trust him with my life. I look back & Katie is pulling Mike to him & they start kissing. Christian grabs my arm & looks straight at me & tells me that everything will be okay. Then I woke up. Non-lucid. Explanation of details: I was just talking about Jill & my old bedroom. I was also just talking about Katie & Christian. Yesterday we went swimming & when we were walking up the steps I could see that there were a lot of people kissing in the lazy river. I've been looking up people I went to school with lately so that probably explains the class. Or it could be that I deleted a picture of a rented book I had taken. It was the one I returned to the college when Lisa died. Side Notes- Too burnt to go swimming again today so maybe I'll take a nap & try to get a lucid.

I haven't had a dream set in this location before. Typically my dreams are in more familiar locations or completely fantastical. It was a three story brick building, like an old New York Firehouse, with fire escapes on the outside. It was a school setting, and each student only had three classes per day. I remember sitting through one of the classes, and the desks were crammed very close to each other. I was doodling on a pad as I half listened to the professor and the other students. I knew that I wasn't a student there and didn't belong, but the others accepted me. Suddenly, I had a bad feeling. I left the room and ran up to the top story. There was a fire that began, but it wasn't a normal fire. It was sentient. As I walked through the smoke and flames, that's when I gained lucidity and realized it was a dream. I put up a forcefield to keep the sentient fire back, and began barking orders at students to get out of the building and back up, because it was going to explode (even though I realize it's a dream, I still like to play it out). Some students didn't listen and I had to go back up and get them down. A couple students had their face melted off by the fire, the faces literally melted like rubber or putty to the ground. About at the point, I woke up to my alarm.
Basically average life in a different town. Driving around, getting pizza, hitting the movies, not much special. I got the name of the girl at the movies, "Mia."
Dream One- I am at work, and we hear a loud sound. Everyone in the plant rushes to look out the front door. One of the skirt ladies's car has been struck by lightening and is on fore. Our Jeep is parked nearby so I run out and move it so that the fire can't spread. My boyfriend climbs in and we just leave work all together, we go to a doctor's office where our pregnant friend is having an ultrasound. Our pregnant friend grows a penis and we make futanari jokes. Dream Two- My boyfriend and I are at the mall trying to find a new spot that we are supposed to meet my mom at. He is lost, as usual, but I am pretty sure I know exactly where to go. There is some construction in the middle of the mall, a new store I guess, so we have to go around that. We also see Christmas stuff set up for a pictures with Santa kind of thing the mall is going to be holding. We find my mom in a Cafeteria type area with a stage on one end. There is a lady giving a "motivational" speech on the stage. She's going on about how we create our own destiny by choosing the right path. Something is said about attracting a man with positive energies, and my mom acts all over the top about how she needs that. The whole speech though makes me think I had dreamed about something similar. I take out my phone and start searching my dream journal and dream notes looking for it, but I can't find it. The speech is over, and my boyfriend is ready to go home, so he kind of rushes me saying it doesn't matter, we can find it another time but we need to go. Dream Three- I dream that I am staying at a strange apartment with one of my coworkers. Her husband and my boyfriend are on a company trip together, so we are waiting for them to come home together. I don't remember much about this dream, just a scene where she is laying on the couch talking about how her husband texted her that they were having a lot of fun. I also remember being in a kitchen and getting a call from my boyfriend that they were on their way home, and to wait for them at the apartment b/c they were going to go straight to that apartment and not stop by work on the way home.
(I knew I was dreaming but I didn't want to change the dream) I had been put into a team of 10 people around my age (15-17) and we was to live and work together our whole lives. When we did something good we gained skill points (Like on a game. '+1 Focus' for example.) As I got to know the people I was with (Never seen them in real life) it started to become more fun. In the group I was in, I was chosen to be the team leader as on the first day I protected the the entire group from getting attacked by ginormous frogs. These occurred as someone tried to gain points my going searching in a huge lake to take out an enemy. On his way back many of these gigantic frogs followed him without him seeing and was about to attack us. I took charge and instead of attacking these powerful frogs, I got them to listen and fed them which befriended them. This was where I gained my first point 'Bravery +1'. At this time of the dream I saw a girl in my dream that I liked. A few days later I was with that girl which made the dream 100x better for me as I had feelings for her. I have never loved anyone as much as I loved the girl in the dream. The problem was, she may not even exist... In conclusion, the dream after awakening, I decided that it was similar to films such as 'divergent' and 'Maze Runner' which is probably why I loved it so much.
+ hunt, chasing two animals, one a (rabbit?) with severed ears pumping blood; the member of the tribe who (harvested?) glass on the prairies, I see some glass crystals and point them out + [long!] follow car down hill, read its license plate, young tall blonde woman gets out near a gate, we must speak carefully because "they" are listening, I ask what's going on, she was driving to a conference and was captured and put to work. We're at a gate and there is some automated robotics that manipulate the controls to open the gate. Inside down in a bunker a guy who's been there for a while is taking me to my workstation, he's bringing a big box and he's putting it under my desk next to my tower PC. I don't want it there because it will interfere with my feet when sitting under the desk. He's telling me how I need to physically turn off this box when I leave or else it will begin gathering information about me and feed it to "them". I'm standing in a room with glass windows out to the outside, a rolling hillside. We're drinking beer? There is a distinct thin layer of fog at a particular elevation on the hill just outside the window and I point this out to the people there and watch it for a while. In an outdoor garden with people, one guy we're with starts behaving really weird and foaming at the mouth and out of his hands. I say "what's going on with him?" Another guy says "he's (summoning? transforming into?) the (cucumber beast?)" The beast materializes on top of the fence running around this yard. This thing just needs to touch somebody, and that person immediately starts to disintegrate. I'm freaked out by that thing and I jump up in the air and levitate around watching the ground and calling out "is it gone yet?" In CH walking in between dining room and living room, I know I'm still in captivity. I'm talking with my (cousin?) I'm back in the dining room and someone mentions the captivity and that it will be long and I freak out and start hopping back and forth from foot to foot and practically scream out, "I'LL BE OUT..." (OF HERE IN A MONTH I want to say) but I"m interrupted by someone loudly shouting "SHHHHHH!!!!!!" so that I don't speak so that the captives hear my plans. wake BTS + casino: I'm in a casino trying to get set up to play blackjack. It's pretty dark. I have a vague friend with me. There's a counter we're standing at at the end of a long room where they're setting up tables. My friend wants to watch the game on TV and is complaining that there's no TV in this room. He's being stupid I think because we've managed great conditions: only us two will be playing at this table. I tell him, "This is IDEAL for us!" hoping he gets the point but he is still unhappy and I repeat "This is IDEAL for us!". I see them setting up a table in front of us, small and straight/rectangular, and a bit below our level, not the usual kidney shaped BJ table. Now I have a close up of the table in front of me pratically with my face in it and the dealer is standing to my right and haded me a dual pack of cards and I'm shuffling them, they don't perfectly shuffle together and I need to push them together with my hands. Then I'm handling my money. I'm handed two wrapped stacks of bills. I plan to play $5-$20 so I try to pull out about $100 in $20 bills but the bills sort of spread over the table. I ask for $5 chips. I get chips and I look at them and they are marked oddly, some of them are "$35" chips, and some of them are hand-written with wording and $35 written on them. I'm suspicious of them and ask about them. Outside the casino there is a sign from the head of the casino about which games can be played by (card counters?), and which games they'll be killed if they try to play, I can't make much sense out of the sign. + intersection: I'm driving in traffic approaching an traffic signal. There is a building on the left that in an "L" shape. The traffic is think and I hope to make the light. As I get to the intersection the light turns red again and I see police waiting by the building to the left so I stop and wait. When I can go again I drive forwards and now I'm on a scooter and bank to the left and up against the short edge of the "L" part of the building around the corner so the police can't see me, I think this is probably not a legal parking place but I fit in here so easily that it should not be a problem. I see my wife out in the road and she walks a loop and comes to me. + LD#187. ...I'm out on the deck of my childhood home [major DREAM SIGN], it's dark/twilight, I come back in to the dining room through the sliding glass door and get the feeling/idea that I could enter the dream state by force of will, which I don't completely believe. I get a smile on my face and turn and run back out to the deck for in order to take of flying, now lucid. I stop at the railing and things are unstable. I'm flailing a bit for solidity and decide to put my face up close to the top of the railing and stare at it. I do this and it instantly comes into very bright, vivid, stable focus. "Whhoaaaa" I say as I look at the grain of the wood, and the "specks" of colored (sand) that are sprinkled around it. I remember my LD goal of looking down from the deck into the back yard, and I look over the railing. The yard is there at proper distance below me, but the ground looks "pixelated" with a frequent repeated computer-looking pattern/texture. I walk to the left towards the corner with my head still looking down to the garden. I think about standing up straight but I decide to keep my eyes on the garden below as I continue to the left. I see the wide brick stairs come into view. On each side of the steps are ceramic pots with plants growing in them. I notice how the perspective changes properly as I walk. The yard is super vivid. Then I reach the corner and look to see the lemon tree, and there it is right in front of me, bright green leafs and yellow lemons all over it. It is too close to the railing, I could almost touch it I think. Then suddenly, without looking away, it's seemingly gone, but I realize it has returned to its closer to waking position. Content that I've done this goal I start walking without a plan back to the sliding glass door, and the idea strikes me to summon my college GF. I'm at the corner facing the house and I reach my right hand around the corner and don't look to my left and try to feel for DB taking my hand. I pull my hand back to me and look, at first I don't see anything but keep imagining that I see her and a girl appears in front of me. She's cute but doesn't look anything like DB. I will her to look like DB and try to bring up DB's face in my memory to install on the DC, but it doesn't work. I give up and decide this is DB. I step up to her and give her a nice solid kiss on the lips. As I pull back I notice that my father is to my right on the deck, a 40yo-50yo version of him. He's sort of dancing around in a silly way and leaning back and looking at us and he says "Heeewww! Heeeeewww!", I ignore him and turn my attention back to DB. Spoiler for slightly sexy time: I have DB up against the railing and I ask her "why didn't we have sex?" [when we were going out]? She responds something like "I made sure that we didn't." I say "well, why don't we have sex now, this is a dream!" and I unzip her top. I'm trying to get her legs open and bring out my (ahem) but she keeps crossing them ... and I wake up.
4/6/16 Dream 1: I was part of a space training program, in competition with my mum I think. We had to try and both land a space craft and then search through it to find bits and pieces. We then headed back to the command centre and watched our performance on the big TV's. Dream 2: I was watching tv at my grandparents house. Fragment: Something about being frozen solid. Dream 3: I was at a giant theme park place with a few friends. We went on a cruise down a river, looking out across all of the different rides, then went to a giant shopping complex. Everyone there, including us, was dressed up in costumes, mostly of superheroes. We went into a book store and starting searching for books about ancient Greek mythology, but I think we got kicked out. We tried to sneak back in to get the book, but our plan was foiled. We then went out to a basketball court I think and started playing with some people.
3/6/16 Dream 1: I was reaching down to replace something with something else, there was something about a group of French people living in England. Dream 2: I was waking down the street with two other people, I'm not sure who they were but I think one of them was a girl I was interested in.
