    1. Dream Journal Entry #8: Consoling SBM's Bad Trip, Synchronized Dogs, and Dane Cook's Penthouse

      by , 08-13-2019 at 09:41 PM
      Dream: I recall being at a park, with a winding leading to a hill which gave a vantage point of the park. Some friends that I was skateboarding with, particularly, CM joined me and I noted how there were dogs positioned at the corners of the field's quadrants. At each quadrant point there was a new breed of dog and they seemed to be acting in unison, performing a random action at each interval until. The actions were diverse, like sniffing the ground in zig zag or jumping three times,or spinning. I thought it was funny

      Dream: SBM, said hi to me as he approached me from the left of my visual field. I was standing between gates leading into a theatre. He looked very worried but continued to make conversation as if nothing bothered him. I tried to continue on with his facade until I couldn't bear to see him in pain any longer at which point I asked him if he was having a bad mushroom trip to which he nodded yes. I suggested we sit under the gate cubbies and talk, and so we did. People were passing into the theatre and SBM and I talked about what I can't remember until he calmed down somewhat.

      Dream: I find myself perusing through a very nice apartment. The colour scheme is gold and white with black accents. There is a shower room in aqua with many showers, there is a bathroom with a toilet that has jets in it. There is a bedroom with a king size bed. And there is a room with many girls to which I assume Dane Cook owned as prostitutes. Sure enough, Dane Cook comes and tells us we can have our pick of them. I am with a girlfriend of my own. She's tan, wearing a red shirt and black shorts, and we start having sex on the beanbag in the hopes that the others might be tempted to join in.

      Dream Title: “Hang gliding” (Unintentional LD)
      Dream: Note: So for health benefits I started eating one large meal per day (23 hours of fasting then 1 hour of eating a lot of food). This has helped me get lean and improve my overall health. One of the side effects is that I’ve been waking up to urinate more often during early morning hours; as my meal is dinner and I get more liquids (from the food and drink) than usual at night then have to urinate during the night. I’ve had a couple of low level LDs since I started eating one meal per day which I have not recorded; I believe it has been at least 3. (I remember one was about my cat who died recently. I say him and instantly knew I was dreaming because I remembered he was dead. I went over and patted him and placed my ear to his chest to hear him purring. I could hear and feel him purring as well as the warmth of his body before I woke up. Another had to do with my wife and I back in high school. I don’t remember much more because I didn’t bother to write it down.) It seem that by eating a lot of food and drinking tea and water I have a tendency to wake up in the early hours of the morning to use the bathroom. This becomes an unintentional WBTB (wake back to bed) situation that happens often. So, last night was no different. I awoke due to the urge to urinate, looked at my phone (3:52 am), stumbled to the bathroom, then stumbled back to bed and dozed off fairly quickly. I find myself hanging on to a metal bar in front of me with by body stretched out behind me, suspended by some straps. I know that I am hang gliding. I can see blue sky all around me. I can see the tops of trees below me. I can see the red, yellow, and blue stripes of the fabric of the hang glider above me. Without a reality check I know that I am dreaming. I’m lucid, but at a very low level. I shift my weight forward to direct the glider to descend to the ground. As I glide lower I see a large swimming pool below me and glide right into the water. I quickly strip off the straps and move out from under the glider. I swim to the side of the pool and climb out. I see an old cabin nearby, and I appear to be at some kind of camp ground. There are many large pine trees all around. I move toward the cabin and see a dirt road leading off to my right. As I pass the cabin, which is on my left, I see a very short chubby Hispanic woman wearing a light blue maid uniform (like a real life version of the maid from the Family Guy TV series). I turn to my right to follow the road to see where it leads. But then my urge for sex takes over. I turn back and walk up to the maid. I sit on the ground in front of her, take hold of her hands and gently pull her down toward me. She has on bright read lipstick that reflects the light. I will her to morph with some success as her features become more attractive to me. I begin to kiss her deeply and feel my body ignite with even more sexual energy. I try to keep my eyes open as I know closing them can cause me to wake up or have a false awakening; but fail and close my eyes which causes me to wake up.

      Dream Title: (LD #76) “This is not my phone!”
      Dream: I find myself at church with my wife and I want to leave. I am feeling annoyed & frustrated because I can’t find her, and there are many children running around and being loud and annoying. I decide to call her; so I pull my cell phone out of my coat pocket. But, what I pull out is not my cell phone…it is a large square device, which is all black, with a broken screen (it reminds me of an old 1980’s hand held video game). I feel confused for a moment… then suddenly realize that I am dreaming without a reality check. I’m lucid, but I didn’t engage my senses, say “I’m dreaming!” out loud, or anything else to stabilize the dream. Because of this my lucidity level was very low (maybe a 3 on a scale of 1-10). Suddenly the urge for sex overwhelms me (I’ve had this issue in the past and it is very annoying). I begin looking for a woman. Suddenly amount of light in the building dims. I start walking to the exit door, open it and walk out into the yard of the last house I lived in. It is night outside everything is wet like it had just rained. I look around and everything looks exactly like my old neighborhood. Two of the children follow me out into the yard (A girl about 10 years old and a boy about 8). They are asking me if I want to play a game. I’m frustrated and want to get away from them. I jump into the air to fly away. I float up into some tree branches and get caught. I’m no incredibly annoyed! I drift back down to the ground, take a deep calming breath and try to fly again, being careful to avoid the trees. I succeed in flying up around the trees, over the road where there are no branches. I fly slowly down the street (about 30 feet off the ground) looking at each house. I see one with all the lights on and fly to the front door. I land and open the door and step into a well-lit foyer. At this point I completely lose lucidity. The house has no furniture, white painted walls, and very shiny hardwood floors. I walk over to a closet door directly in front of me. I open the door and there is a flat screen TV on the wall to my right and a low shelf to my left. I move to the shelf and sit on it. I’m waiting for the TV to turn on. Suddenly I realize I am no naked. Then my daughter walks in and I freak out! I cover myself and run out of the closet and sprint for the front door…the dream fades and I wake up.

      2/19/2018: Started new technique I call the “See the Sky” technique. It is very simple; when I see the sky I ask myself if I’m dreaming and do some kind of RC (count my fingers, look for something to read, etc) In many past LDs the sky has always been amazing.

      Date: 2/26/18 (Monday 3:36 AM – work day): Before I went to bed I set my resolve to look for the sky and become lucid in my dreams. I don’t remember a lot about this dream. I was with my wife and her family at some cult/church event. I desperately wanted to get out of this place. It was taking place at a park near a lake. I’m waking among many pine trees and rocky outcrops. I reach the top of one of those outcrops and can see the sky. My mind “clicked” and I remembered to reality check when I see the sky; except I had no need to do any form or reality check I knew I was dreaming immediately. The sky was more beautiful than any sky in real life. The blue was darker, the clouds were white and silver and absolutely perfect. I just looked at the sky in awe for a few seconds and woke up. I’m very happy that I had some quick results from this simple technique. Hopefully I will get better with it over time. I’m still not remembering to do my “See the Sky” technique every time I go outside. I need to make this a habit.

      Dream Title: (LD #75) “Kissed 3 different women” (unintentional WBTB)
      Dream: This is day 76 of my “lucid mindset/awareness” experiment. First a bit of background: I was having a mild allergic reaction to something yesterday and had some swelling in my hands. I took 2 Benadryl at about 8 pm and watched TV until 9:30, by that time I was falling asleep on the couch. I then went to bed and dozed off very quickly. I woke up from a dream at around 2:30 am, got up, used the bathroom and went back to bed. At roughly 4:15 am I am awoken by the sound of my cat vomiting on the floor next to my bed. I get up, turn on the lights and proceed to clean up the mess. I was not happy. I lay back down and struggled until at least 5:30ish to fall back to sleep. I find myself in a place that looks very similar to my old grade school cafeteria/gym/auditorium (this large room was used for all 3 back in the 70’s). I am sitting in the very back row of folding chairs facing the stage. I lean back and my folding chair reclines and I then notice I have a blanket over me. Suddenly my cat jumps up on my lap, climbs up to my chest and lays down purring. I notice that there are 3 women, with their backs to me, sitting in the 3 folding seats in front of me. One has shoulder length blond hair, one has short black hair and the other has long brown hair pulled back into a ponytail. This all seems normal to me. For some reason I glance back over my left shoulder to the wall behind me and see an huge greyish-silver bug with 6 long thin legs and very long (twice as long as the body) antenna on the wall. Something clicks and I remember lying in bed trying to fall back to sleep just a short while ago. I’m Lucid! I shift my seat back upright and my cat jumps off my lap. I drop the blanket and I am feeling quite “aroused” (as most men tend to get in the early morning hours while sleeping). I go to the women with the short black hair (who is to the left of the other 2 women). I touch her shoulder and she immediately stands up and faces me. She is lovely with full lips covered in dark red lipstick. I look into her dark brown eyes, lean forward and press my lips to hers in a deep passionate kiss. My arousal level grows, but the dream fades and I wake up. I am mildly annoyed but very tired. I almost immediately doze back off. Amazingly I find myself back in the school auditorium standing in almost the same place as I was when I woke up. A woman with long blonde hair, wearing a loose fitting red, blue & white flowered top is standing in front of me. I know I’m dreaming. I reach up and touch cheek with my right hand and brush my thumb over her lips; which slightly smears her lipstick. I lean in and press my lips to hers in a deep passionate kiss, which causes me to wake up again. Again, I am mildly annoyed but still tired. I doze back off very quickly and find myself in a house I don’t recognize. I am with a woman with brown hair which is pulled back in a ponytail. She is wearing a light blue, zip up hoodie sweatshirt (which is unzipped) over a tight white t-shirt which shows off her small but beautiful breasts. This woman is not wearing any makeup, and she certainly didn’t need to. She is gorgeous. Again, I know I am dreaming. I take a step toward her, place my hands on her shoulders and begin to guide her backward toward and open door behind her. Just inside this room is a bed. We move together, me forward her backward, until her legs touch the end of the bed. Then I move my face to hers in a deep passionate kiss as I guide her body back onto the bed. I wake up….this time I couldn’t fall back to sleep. This is one of the strangest lucid dreaming experiences I’ve ever had. It seems like a strange series of events lead to this triple brief lucid dream situation. Probably a combination of the Benadryl, plus the unintentional wake-back-to-bed, plus how quickly I was able to doze back off each time. It was strange, frustrating, and fun now that I look back on it. (Lucidity level: 4)

      Dream Title: (LD #74) “Lucid Dreaming with little blonde girl”
      Dream: This is day 61 of my “lucid mindset/awareness” experiment. I find myself at some kind of work event. There are a lot of people around and we are in an area that is part dining hall and part park. There are table and chairs and a linoleum floor, yet we are outside. I can see the skyline and trees. Everyone is walking around with plates and cups and many people are sitting and eating. It is a warm summer day as the trees are covered in green leaves. For some reason I decide to leave. A guy with whom I work (Chris), a woman I don’t know and a small blonde girl (about 3 years old) who look a lot like my daughter looked when she was 3, all head to Chris’ car. We walk a short distance to get to the car. Chris gets in the driver’s door, the woman into the front passenger door, I get in the right rear door. When I get in I see the little girl is already in the left side of the back seat. The inside of the car is red, with red vinyl seats, red carpet on the floor and the inside of the roof is also red. The little girl is wearing a white short-sleeve shirt, red shorts, and white shoes. She has short blonde hair (just above shoulder length). Chris begins to drive and I get comfortable by sliding my back down the vinyl back of the seat to an almost laying position. The entire backseat expands so it is almost the size of a bed (I don’t notice anything wrong with this). I glance to my left over the girls head and out the window (the windows have also expanded to at least twice their original size). I have a great view of the sky, which is an amazingly vivid blue. Then I see 2 clouds, but while they are puffy cloud shaped I can see space through them (like looking through a cloud shaped window). But the space I see is like looking a picture taken by the Hubble telescope. I can see millions of stars. In that second, with no reality check, I know for a fact I am dreaming. I turn away from that window and I am no longer in a car. I am now inside of what appears to be a gondola. It is just a large box with windows & seats on all sides (the interior is still red). I look out the window to my right and can a see grassy hill, trees, houses & a street. The pure blue gorgeous sky is above. I am so happy to be lucid again; I am filled with joy. I turn back to the little girl and say, “Guess what?” She replies, “What?” I say, with a huge smile, “We’re lucid dreaming!! Watch this!” I turn back to my right and the side of the gondola is wide open. I see a white Volkswagen Beetle nearby. I put my hand out like a jedi knight and will the car up into the air. It rises gently up to about 50 feed off the ground. I can see the pipes of the undercarriage of the car. I bring it closer to us and then lower it down gently to the ground. I turn back to the girl and she laughs. I pick her up and get out of the gondola. I carry her to a grassy area. There are people wandering around, I think this must be a park. I say to the girl, “You try.” She smiles and floats out of my hands, and about 20 feet into the air, like there is no gravity for her. Her mom shows up, but she is a different woman than before. This woman is overweight and wearing a blue sweat suit. She has brown hair, which is a mess, and looks like she just woke up. The girl floats down and into her awaiting arms. I say to the mother, “I’m teaching her to lucid dream!” The woman smiles at me and walks away. I turn around and see and strange room. It looks like a living room with only 3 walls and no ceiling (just expose to the sky). There is large fireplace (with no fire) on the back wall; there is brown leather furniture (couch and chairs) on the left and right walls. Standing in the middle of the room is an attractive woman. She is small and trim and has brown hair; in her 50’s; wearing a low cut, form fitting, deep purple dress which show off her nice figure (after I wake up I realize she is the actress Katherine Helmond from the show “Who’s the Boss”). I decide to have sex with her. I walk over to her confidently, slip my left arm around her waist, and pull her close to me. The dream fades and I wake up. (On my lucidity scale of 1 – 10; I would give this one about a 3. I knew I was dreaming and did act like I was dreaming. Yet I still interacted with the people and environment as if they were real.)

      Dream Title: (LD #73) “Ex Living in Basement” (Brief low level Lucidity)
      Dream: I overate last night and went to bed feeling too full. In my dream I am walking around a neighborhood which is a combination of the my childhood neighborhood, my late childhood neighborhood and my adult neighborhood. It just kept changing as I walked around. I was walking with Donna (from “That 70’s Show) and another woman who I knew in my dream but not in reality. At one point Donna tells me we have to go to the house where I used to live with my ex-wife. The house has been condemned and I need to check if anything I own is still in the house. In the dream this all makes sense (but in real life it most certainly does not). We walk a very short distance to the house, which looks nothing like the house I used to live in. The garage door is open and it is full of old junk. We walk in and there is an entrance to the basement to our right. The two ladies go in first and there is a dimly lit hallway in front of us and a white closed door on my left. We stop in the hall way and Donna is looking around in discussed at the horrible condition of the house. Something doesn’t “feel” right to me but I’m not sure what. I turn to the door on my left and open it. I see a small dimly lit room. There are windows on the right side of the room up high close to the ceiling which is just support boards you would find it any unfinished basement. There are dark red curtains over the windows blocking much of the light and giving the room a red tint. There is a “L” shaped couch against the back and right wall of the room, which is coved in a white sheet. My ex-wife is standing in the room waring a long white t-shirt which goes to her knees. She is overweight and has not aged well. I walk into the room and up to her. Things still feel “off” to me and I’m trying to figure out why. She smiles at me. I turn from her, walk out of this room and into the garage. I stop and look around at all the junk. I feel confused. I know something is wrong with this situation. Then it dawns on me that I must be dreaming, but I don’t follow up with a RC or engaging my senses; so my lucidity level is very low probably a 2 on a scale of 1-10. I walk back to the room where my ex is, walk up to her, embrace her and look into her eyes. She looks into my eyes and says, “I’ve missed you.” I know I’m dreaming and am considering having sex with her. I move my head down to kiss her and she responds accordingly. However I notice that her teeth look stained yellow. I pull my head back. She opens her eyes and has a hurt expression on her face. I realize what I’m doing is wrong because my actual wife would be angry with me for doing what I’m doing; even if it is just a dream. I push my ex away from me and turn to exit the room. The dream fades and I wake up.

      Dream Title: City Backdrop Behind the Golf Course (Brief Lucidity)
      Dream: (*Note: I woke up and looked at my phone at around 4:15 am. I rolled over repeated, “I’m dreaming” several times and dozed off.) I was having a dream where I found out that Jen was cheating on me. I was angry and broken hearted. I got to see the man and he was slim and at least 10 years older than me. For some reason I was walking with Jen and one of her female friends (who I don’t know in real life). We are walking up a hill in a suburban neighborhood in Worcester. I am distraught. I decide I am going to find that guy and kick his ass. I turn away from Jen and her friend and begin walking back down the hill. Something happens in an old parking lot, with tall grass growing out of many cracks in the asphalt and many rusty parking meters. Then I find myself walking up Upland Street, on the left side of the road right next to the golf course. I glance to my left and there is tall grass right along the edge of the road. The golf course looks normal, but on the far side I can see (through a haze) many tall reflective glass buildings like you would find in any major city. I turn back to looking up Upland Street but I realize something isn’t right. The center of Worcester (which I assumed was what I was seeing) can’t be seen from the golf course. I stop walking, turn and look at the city again. Now it no longer looks like real buildings. It looks like a backdrop (or a facade) of a city. It looks like someone cut out a huge piece of plywood in the shape of a city skyline with the building shapes painted black and the windows on the buildings painted yellow (like something you might see in a Broadway play/musical). For a moment I think that maybe the owner of the golf course put up that facade to provide more ambiance for the people golfing. But then I realize that that facade would have to actually be the size of real skyscrapers. I realize the ridiculousness of this and I am lucid without a reality check. Before I can take any action I wake up. I look at my phone and it is 5:05 am. I lay in bed for a while and then get up to get ready for work. Hopefully this is the start of my current plan working.

      Dream Title: (Unintentional LD) Moving Stars (Brief Lucidity)
      Dream: I am in my bedroom, in bed with my wife. I can see my comforter, dresser, walls and closet doors. However the ceiling is open and I can see the sky. It is not quite night or day. I can see clouds and blue sky but also stars. I am gazing at the stars. Suddenly the stars begin to move around like fireflies and I know that would never happen in reality. I’m lucid without a RC. I roll over to my wife with the intention of having sex. I wake up.

      Dream Title: (LD #72) Ex in a Moo Moo. (**Lucid**)
      Dream: I find myself in my ex-wife’s house (she shows up in too many of my dreams). It is a very small house. I am in the kitchen area and everything is white; the floor tiles, the counters, the cabinets, the appliances, the table and chairs. There are boxes everywhere, like she just moved in. I can see an archway that leads to a living room which is also full of boxes. It is day time as I can see light coming in through the windows. My ex-wife is in the kitchen with me. She is wearing a large dress (a moo moo dress) that is a light blue color. She is hugely obese. I am here to help her unpack. She comes up to me and wraps her arms around my sides in a hug. She is so large that I can’t get my arms around her entire body. She looks up at me and I look into her strikingly blue eyes. She says, “OK. Let’s get this over with.” I don’t know what she’s talking about, so I reply “Get what over with?” She responds, “Sex of course.” I don’t know if it was because this became a “sexual situation”, which is a dream sign for me, or because of my awareness of the ridiculousness of this situation but I am instantly lucid without a physical reality check. I let go of her and walk away to a white door in the kitchen that leads outside. I am in the front yard of her house. The grass is green. There is a cement walkway which leads to cement steps, which lead to the street. The street runs from my left to my right in front of the house and there is another street directly across from where I’m standing which leads down a long hill. It is autumn. I can see many trees all around with leaves in brilliant shades of red, orange and yellow. I am so happy to be lucid. I take in the scenery. The sky is a perfect cloudless blue (I don’t see the sun). There are many small white houses in the neighborhood, all with well-tended yards. I decide to fly (yet again). I levitate off the ground and will myself to fly forward and upward. I am having trouble with control and begin to drift off to my left into some trees. I refocus my mind and remove any doubt that I have complete control of my ability to fly. I jet upward about 300 feet and then zoom off to my left. I am flying over a perfect New England town in mid-autumn, on a beautiful day. It is amazing. I can see the roofs of many houses below me and streets going in all directions. I can see a small pond below with perfect blue water. I see a white church with a tall steeple and fly over the large metal cross at the top of the steeple. I see acres of cemetery just after the church full of old head stones and red, yellow, and orange leaf covered trees. The dream fades and I wake up. (3:38 AM)

      Dream Title: (LD #71) Flying Car. (**Lucid**)
      Dream: (After being awake for at least 2 hours with stomach issues, I dozed off - WBTB) I find myself in my car driving on the main street of my town. It is dark outside and I know it is very late. I can clearly see the orange light from the street lights along the road. Brian (A man I currently work with) is in the passenger seat. I know that he agreed to come for a ride with me because I couldn’t get back to sleep. We are driving up a hill which leads to St. Joseph’s church (on the left). I was planning on going to see a man to whom I owe some money, but I realize it is too late at night. I glance at Brian and ask, “Where do you want to go now?” He turns to me and says, “Why don’t we go visit that woman from your dream last night?” The second he said the word dream I was lucid (this is a huge dream sign for me. Whenever I hear the word in real life, even when I’m barely paying attention, it triggers me to do a RC.) I can remember being in bed struggling to fall back to sleep a short time ago. I feel great at that moment and say, in a loud voice, “I’m Dreaming!!!” Then I say, “Hey, let’s make this car fly!” He looks at me with a puzzled expression. I say, “Just will the car to fly. I’ll show you.” I turn back to face the windshield and simply “will” the car off the ground. The front of the car lifts off the street first and then the back, so I am leaning back against the car seat. There is a very large maple tree in front of us (it must be late spring/early summer because the tree is covered in leaves). At my current angle I will go into the tree. I will the car to climb at a higher angle and the front of the car moves up until we are completely vertical. I can feel gravity pulling me against the back of my seat as I will the car to accelerate. I see no stars, just a dark overcast sky above. We are accelerating quickly and I can feel the G-Force growing. I am considering just going into space. The dream fades and I wake up (4:28 AM)

      Dream Title: (LD #70) Shirtless at church! (**Lucid**)
      Dream: I startled awake at 2:34 am because my wife was scratching at the bed in her sleep, I assume she was dreaming. I had been dreaming but struggled to remember any of it. But after a while I remembered a bit: I’m lying on the grass on my right side outside at some event. It is a bright warm sunny day. A man has just finished performing (can’t remember what he was doing) and I applaud without getting up. I see a woman to my left and many people sitting on blankets nearby who were watching the show. She has a baby with her and says “He won’t play with his ball.” I glance at the man who was performing and he replies, “Have you tried a balloon?” I glance back to the woman with the baby and she says, “That’s a great idea.” But I notice that her baby is now under a pile of plastic grocery bags. I can’t see the baby but I can see the pile moving as the baby moves beneath it. I find this strange and am very upset at this woman. Babies can be smothered by plastic grocery bags! I startle awake. Jot a few notes and try to go back to sleep while repeating “I’m dreaming.” And focusing on my breathing. But, I make a mistake. Typically I do this for a little while and then let nature take its course and just let my mind drift and fall asleep. But I kept focusing on repeating the mantra and became more and more awake. I glanced at my phone at one point at 3:20 am. I’m getting frustrated. I get up, use the bathroom, get a drink of water, then go back to bed. I continue to try to sleep but keep saying the mantra because I so desperately want to have another LD. I don’t know how long I laid there but it must have been at least another hour when I finally got control of my OCD mind. I laid on my back and let my mind wonder. At some point I dozed off. I am in church, except it looks nothing like my church. It looks more like an old fashion movie theater. There are rows of stadium seating, all of which have red velvet cushions and backs. The floor is also covered with dark maroon carpet. I am with my wife and there are many people sitting in seats and walking around the area in front of the stage (where a movie screen would be). Everyone is dressed in summer attire (shorts, t-shirts, flip-flops, etc.). There is a man on the stage (not my pastor) who has a large strange device which looks like the combination of a pipe organ and an accordion (I won’t even try to describe this crazy looking thing, but it was supposed to play music). The man can’t get the device to work so he tells us the service is over. People start milling around and talking. My wife hands me a strange piece of plastic and says, “Hold this for me. I need to run to the bathroom.” She moves away. I know in my mind the plastic thing is a name tag, but there is no writing on it and it is just a “T” shaped piece of white plastic. I’m feeling a bit confused. A woman walks up to me, who I know in my dream but not in reality. I also know that she has a crush on me, but I don’t find her attractive. She is wearing inappropriately short white shorts and a thin material white tank top through which I can clearly see her hard nipples. She is also barefoot and I can see her toe nails (and finger nails) are painted bright red. She is also anorexic skinny. She has short blonde hair and her face is so thin her cheek bones protrude, and she is wearing no makeup. I am shocked and discussed that she is dressed so inappropriately for church. She comes up to me and stands uncomfortably close to me. She asks, “Are you going to the picnic after church?” I now remember there is a picnic event after church at a local park with a lake. She leans in ever closer and brings her mouth very close to my right ear and says in a seductive whisper, “I would love to go swimming with you.” As she says this she gently caresses my bare chest with the tips of her fingers. Suddenly I realize I’m shirtless at church and I feel extremely embarrassed and confused. Why the hell am I shirtless!?! I step back from her and say, “I’m sorry but I have to go!” I turn and begin to rush to the exit door. I navigate through the crowd of people, none of which are paying any attention to me. I reach a short set of steps which lead to the exit when suddenly I realize the ridiculousness of my situation. I stop and ask myself in my mind, “Am I dreaming?” I think back and can remember being back in bed struggling to fall asleep. I’m Lucid! I run up the steps of the door and though the door. I am greeted with a bright gorgeous summer day. I am standing on a cobblestone street which runs to my right and left. I glance in both directions. There are many old fashion, decretive two story buildings of many different bright colors running down both sides in each direction. It reminds me of “Main Street USA” in Disney world. I levitate off the ground up to the roof of the building next to me and look to my left. I see a clock tower at the end of the street (about 400 yards away). I use my left hand to push off the side of the building and jet toward the clock tower superman style. I close the distance in a few seconds and zoom by the roof of the tower and jet upward. The sky is a perfect blue with no clouds. I can feel the wind in my face and it is warm and wonderful. (I don’t see the sun) I feel amazingly exhilarated!! Before me and below me I see a huge ocean bay. The water is exquisitely blue and tranquil, beyond anything I’ve ever seen in reality. I see many tiny white houses lining the shore along a white sand beach. Behind the houses the tree covered hills rise up and run out to the horizon. I am amazed that my mind is creating so much detail. I notice that I am feeling aroused and decide to fly down to the beach and find a gorgeous bikini clad women for some sexual activity, but as I jet down toward the beach the dream fades and I wake up (5:25 am)

      Dream Title: (LD #69) My wife booked a hooker party??? (**Lucid**)
      Dream: I’m standing outside on a street in front of a house that I know it mine in the dream, but it is not in reality. It is up on a small hill. It is painted white and has two stories. It looks run down but I can’t make out the details because it is night, but the moon must be out because it is relatively brightly lit for night time. There are several Asian children with me playing. The yard of the house is a mess and looks like it hasn’t been tended too for quite a while. I am not cold and there are leaves on the trees so it must be summer. I go up the front stairs, which are made of old stone work. I enter the house through the front door. I come into a narrow room with a TV to my left, which is on because it is the only light source in this dimly lit room, but it is facing away from me. My wife and her youngest sister are there and both wearing long silk robes with flower designs on them (Japanese style robes). There is a man with them. He is short (maybe 5’5”), darker skin (Italian), his hair is slicked back and he has 3 days of dark beard stubble, he has on a bright red satin zip up Jacket (I just watched an episode of “That 70’s show where Hyde wore a similar jacket) and black jeans. I know he is a pimp and I suddenly remember that this is a sex party my wife had planned. I am feeling very apprehensive about having sex with prostitutes. I sit down on the floor with my back against the wall and notice I too am wearing a silk robe, which is way too tight in the chest and arms. The man, my wife and her sister pay no attention to me. Two women walk in through the front door. Both are Asian, both are wearing pink silk robes with red flower patterns, both have their long dark hair up in a bun with a single chopstick holding them in place, both have on a single gold chain around their necks, and both are wearing dark eye liner and dark red lipstick to accentuate their facial features. The first woman is taller than the second (maybe 5’4”) and she walks over to the pimp, my wife, and her sister. The second woman is tiny (maybe 4’11”) and she comes towards me. She knees down right in front of me and smiles. I feel very uncomfortable with this situation. I know that if I do anything sexual with this woman, even if my wife agreed to it initially, it will end my marriage in the long run. I pay no attention to what is happening with my wife. The prostitute with me leans forward, reaches out and takes hold of the opening of my robe (one side in each hand) and begins to pull it open. Her robe falls open and I can clearly see her small but perfectly formed breasts. I am most certainly aroused, but I put my hands on the floor and push myself to my feet. The robe I’m wearing is uncomfortably small and tight on me. I say "I'm sorry, but I just can’t.” to the woman kneeling on the floor who then frowns at me. She looks like she’s feeling rejected. I quickly turn away from her towards where my wife was, but she is gone. I move to the set of stairs which leads to the second floor and go up them quickly. The stairs lead to a hall with several doors. The Asian kids, who were outside, are all standing in the hall and laughing quietly. One of them, a boy wearing a blue Yankees cap, a white tee shirt, and blue jeans, turns to me and laughs (I assume because of my too tight robe). I push past the kids to a door at the end of the hall where the pimp is standing. I walk up to him and say, “Is my wife in there?” He says, “Of Course!” I can hear the sounds of women moaning in sexual ecstasy and I know the other prostitute is servicing both my wife and her sister. I am very angry and confused as to why my wife would arrange this situation. Suddenly, I remember to question my reality when I’m feeling negative emotions. I clearly remember lying in bed repeating …”I’m dreaming! I’m dreaming!...., just a short time ago. I’m Lucid! I am very excited! I turn to a door to my right, grab the door knob and think “This door leads outside!” I open it and walk out onto the street in front of the house. There are many trees and it is dark, and only lit by the bright half-moon above. I look up and can see it clearly through the (now bare, like it is late fall) tree branches. I can also see enormous amounts of stars (like I’m looking at picture taken with the Hubble telescope). I stare in amazement for a few seconds just breathing in the cool fall air. I decide to fly. I levitate off the ground but the stupid robe I’m wearing gets caught up in the tree branches. I drift back to the ground but I’m still entangled. I try to remove the robe but it is too tight to pull it off my arms. I’m trapped. I tell myself to stay calm and remember that I can close my eyes and spin to change my location. I close my eyes and prepare myself mentally for a potential false awakening. I start spinning and can feel the robe tearing apart and falling off my body and the branches disappearing. I open my eyes and I am standing in the middle of a different street. There are no trees around me, just open field to my right and left. In front of me the street goes about a 100 yards before going through a small tunnel which runs through a small hill with train tracks on the top of the hill. It is still night, and is fairly well lit with a red glow. I look up and I am in awe! I see 4 red half-moons in the sky of various sizes. One of them is enormous and I can clearly see so many craters. The millions of stars are also red and I can see bands of them that make up the outer edge of the galaxy. It is breath takingly beautiful! I will myself to levitate upward and decide to try to fly to the largest moon. The dream fades and I wake up. (6:48 am)

      Dream Title: (LD #68) Getting Sued Makes Me Lucid (**Lucid**)
      Dream: I woke up at 4:45 am from a previous dream. I took a few notes and tried to remember as much as possible, which wasn’t much. Then I rolled over, got comfortable and repeated “I’m Dreaming!” (Basically I did MILD) in my head many times. At some point I dozed off. I’m with my wife in a place that looks like a book store in a mall, but I know I’m at work. We are standing at a counter and I can see book shelves loaded with books, tables with small gift items, and glass display cases with other gift items all around. There is a tall, heavy set, balding man with black hair, wearing a maroon apron over a white short-sleeve collar shirt standing at the register in front of us. Jen begins speaking, “You know that kid who had his neck broken during the wrestling match last week?” I know exactly what she is talking about. This kid was at a wrestling match with my daughter’s high school and is now paralyzed from the neck down due to something that happened during the match. I reply, “Yeah, that’s horrible.” She responds, “His parents now have a class action law suit against everyone involved, including us!” I am shocked! I say, “What!?! How can they sue us? We hand nothing to do with this!!!” She replies, “We go to the same church as they do!” This makes no sense to me! I am angry, annoyed and confused. Suddenly I’m aware that there are many people in this room staring at us because of the conversation. I take my wife’s hand and lead her to the set of glass doors to exit the building. We walk through the doors and are outside the building where I work. It is an amazingly beautiful summer day. It feels like it is in the mid 70’s, low humidity, bright and sunny (but I don’t actually see the sun), and I can smell the scent of fresh cut grass. There is grass in front of the building and we turn left and walk along this strip of grass which is between the building and a low light colored stone wall. I can see the mirrored glass windows of the building to my left as we walk. I say to my wife, “This makes no sense! How can they possibly sue us!?! We have absolutely no liability for this accident even if they go to our church!” Suddenly I step into a swampy area and begin sinking up to my knees in water amongst the grass. I’m even more annoyed and confused. “This is going to ruin my nice dress shoes”, I think to myself. I turn to my right, grab the top of the stone wall, and begin to pull myself out of the water. Suddenly I remember to question reality whenever I have negative emotions, and I am very annoyed at the moment. I think “Am I dreaming?” and I can remember being back in bed saying “I’m dreaming” just a little while ago. I am lucid without a physical RC!! I see the wide expanse of cloudless sky above me and I know exactly what I want to do….FLY! I levitate myself up out of the water and keep going until I am about 100 feet off the ground. I glance around and can see lush green tree covered hills all the way to the horizon, with buildings and houses among the trees. I jet off, superman style, in the direction I’m facing. I feel AMAZING!! I am so incredibly happy to be lucid!! I am overjoyed to be flying again!! I can feel the warm wind against my face and my cloths moving against my body as the wind blows through them. I see a large group of tall pine trees in the distance. I dive down low as I get closer to them and then at the last minute cut upward so I zoom up over the tops of the trees, just missing them. I am exhilarated! I climb up higher and see a tiny yellow biplane in the distance. I push my hands forward to accelerate and head right for it. It seems to be flying in large circular pattern. I close the gap in a matter of seconds and can see the plane and pilot in detail. The pilot is dress just as I would assume he would be, “leather helmet, goggles, a white scarf (blowing out behind him), and a leather jacket. He waves to me as I fly by and I wave back, smiling from ear to ear. I zoom forward again and begin to dip low to the ground (about 50 feet off the ground). I am flying over a clear field of lush green grass. I see a large colonial style house ahead among some tall pine trees. I decide to explore that house. I fly up and gracefully land and jog up to the side of the left house. I start walking around to the front and pass a window where I see an older woman (70’s) sitting at the kitchen table. She is very thin and has a care worn face. Her short hair is jet black and she is wearing a long sleeve black sweater. I turn the corner onto a driveway heading for the front door, when the dream fades and I wake up. (6:26 am)

      Dream Title: That guy is too tall (*Brief Lucidity*)
      Dream: I find myself sitting at a long rectangular table, like one you would find in a school cafeteria. Reenie is sitting across from me and Ann is sitting to my right (I currently work with both of these women). I’m in a large room that resembles a school cafeteria. I know I’m at work, but this room looks nothing like the cafeteria at my work. The walls are painted white and I can see the lines of the cinderblocks under the paint. There are many tall windows which let in dim light. There is a DVD on the table to my left. I know Reenie brought it to work today to loan it to me. I have no idea what movie it is but she insists I need to watch it. I look to my left and there are many large wooden crates. Reenie says, “Can you believe how many customers are returning their gear?” I realize the area to my left is a loading dock. The creates contain product my company sells. Ann gets up and walks away to my right. I get up and say to Reenie, “I’m going back to my office.” She smiles at me as I walk away. I walk across the room (light blue tiled floor) to a glass door and pull it open. I enter a small glass enclosure between 2 sets of doors which lead from the cafeteria to a long hallway. Ann is standing in the enclosure looking through the glass wall to my right, back into the cafeteria/loading dock. I look at her for a moment because I notice she has changed her hair. It is now short and bleached very blonde (almost white), but it looks terribly dry and frizzy. She is wearing a white long sleeve button down blouse. She says, “Look at that.” I turn my head and see several men, in dark blue jumpsuits, enter the loading dock area from a door on the left wall of the room. One of the men has extremely long legs and stands at least 8 feet tall. This seems strange to me. I assume he is wearing stilts, like the ones ceiling painters wear, under his jumpsuit, but I can see he is wearing black sneakers. I dismiss my confusion, turn to my left and walk through the second set of glass doors. Ann follows me. I am in a long hallway that looks like a hallway from my old high school. Ann is now walking beside me to my left. She begins talking about all the returns we have been receiving recently, but I am not paying attention. I notice everything feels strange. I think to myself, “Where am I?” (just like I do in real life). Then I immediately think about doing a reality check, but Ann is right next to me and I don’t want to look weird by obviously looking at my hand. But things just feel a bit too strange to ignore. I stop walking and raise my right hand up in front of my face. I have trouble focusing on my fingers. They keep fading in and out. I try to count them and get to 7 all of them are fading in and out. I am lucid!...the dream fades and I wake up. DAMN!! (6:48 am)
