Ate dinner before bed but still craved a dessert. I think it affected my dream a little bit...

KFC beef burger



In town with my high school class, everyone goes to different places. I go to KFC. I get a beef burger and cook another steak on the public grill. I add sauces. The food is decent, but the chicken wings, which I didn't see at first, would've been better.

Mop towel game board

I'm a different guy in another family. Before dinner, I suggest we play a board game. My parents don't want to, even though they play it every day. Disappointed, I go back upstairs and wash the large mop towel I had prepared for the occasion, which would've served as a game board.

Dream
I was in some actor's house which had a massive decorated pink tub. I hid in there. Turns out I was breaking into his house bc I was unhappy about who they'd paired him with in his show and I wanted to change it (this justified home invasion in dream me's eyes). I confronted him and asked why producers love pairing people with negative chemistry. However his tv partner was signed on for several seasons so it was hopeless.

I hid under his bed but got caught so smashed his window and jumped out. In the end he forgave me.

Another lucid after a WBTB

I am on a beach. This time I am very lucid and I have no doubt in my mind that this one is worth counting for full points.

The beach is an OTD environment. The weather is cloudy with a dark storm out at sea. The clouds are very vivid and detailed, they seem to be stacked up and up as I look into the sky in this massive cumulonimbus cloud. It is windy but it is not raining though I occasionally hear a stroke of thunder.

The beach also has a strange pattern, like there is a subsurface layer of concrete or stone with sand over it with corrugations or waves about every half-meter. Man-made in nature its not a natural formation. Thus the beach (or at least this section of it) alternates between a thin layer of sand and raw stone. I remember as I am walking (barefoot and by the looks of it in-form) the ground beneath my feet properly changes texture and resiliency. I experiment with it, seeing if the pattern is correctly maintained even when I am not looking just judging where my feet should be.

I think that this is a lucid dreaming competition, and a lot of points are awarded for dream control so I had best start racking that up. I set an intention to keep the dream long and stable and remember all of it. I decide to start simple and start running. This form is much more capable and athletic than my waking form. Even on sand running at great speed is effortless, and there is no strain in my knees or ankles or no difficulty breathing. I don't know if I could take points for super speed its tough to say if this was just a fast run but one that a normal person could do.

I took off and launched myself, pushing energy down to create my rockets. This works though there is still lethargy in the rockets, the flame is pitiful and doesn't provide much propulsion. I still get a long leap traveling down the beach, maybe two meters vertical and ten meters distance. I try again pushing down a little harder and get a bit more altitude. Still I'm barely flying but I manage to stay in the air long enough to fly in a circle and do a flip in the air before landing, but I'm still dealing with impotence. I decide to land and surrender that task, supposing I've done enough to count for basic flight. And because the dream is really vivid even this very low-level flying is exhilirating.

I then meet a dream figure, a larger man carrying a large white bag it looks like it would contain topsoil or rock salt or something, but the label says like "Moo Moo Strawberry Milkshake Mixture Powder". The man starts talking to me trying to convince me to try/drink his beverage because it has health benefits. He shows me the drink in some small cups set out on a table and I think I should try it (knowing you can get points for eating or drinking something). But I don't get around to drinking it. Instead, for some plot reason I don't remember he gives me a black thumb drive and tells me to read the data on it. The data is the formulation for this mixture.

The dream scene transitions to a library or study in a fancy mansion or old university. I use a summoning trick to pull out a slate (a slate is a small highly advanced crystal computer which I have used a couple of times). I use a sort of adapter to connect the modern flash drive to highly futuristic crystal computer. I try to activate the device though it doesn't seem to work, the device won't even activate.

I shrug and surrender that this isn't working and that I'm not particularly interested in this plotline anyways. The dream scene changes again. Now I'm in my childhood home. The dream is substantially less vivid. I decide I will attempt to summon Manei, even though I have been in this situation many times before, having lucid dreams of being alone in my childhood home attempting to execute dream control. I think about how my theory is that mundanity and grounded-ness of the location might unconsciously stifle all my dream control attempts as I think of it too much as a purely 'real' location. Thus the rules of waking reality are imposed.

I meander around for a bit calling her name, opening doors with the anticipation of finding her behind them and using my old summoning command. Just a "throw crap at the wall and see what sticks." Though I know this has never worked. Eventually I get frustrated since I have dealt with this situation so many times before over many years (clearly no longer fully lucid at this point as I am getting tainted by emotion) and try to brute force it. I just concentrate on an area and visualize her appearing very intensely, like imposing your imagination on waking reality. This actually seems to partially work and I can see her starting to manifest sort of like wet paint being washed away in reverse the right colors and shapes are starting to come in. Each time the visualization starts to unravel or she is just becoming me talking to myself I yell "stop!" and try to keep her 'physical' form from unraveling. I managed to get her left hand completely solidified and started to pull on it, trying to get the rest of her out of the fog. But the physical effort translated to the waking world where I was yanking and thrashing in my bed, causing me to wake up.

NONLUCID DREAM

Got McDonald’s and just got a burger and drink. I wanted fries but I panicked and ran out of time putting in the mobile order and wasn’t expecting there to be literally no line. Also, I had accidentally put sent the order through and didn’t have time to cancel it so I just had to get what I ordered because I didn’t want to make a second order. I went inside and the cashier asked me to write a review on the kiosk (idk why I had to pay when I already made a mobile order) and that theyre only asking women to write reviews. I thought that was cool so I told her as such. I was writing my review I kinda didn’t know what to say and suddenly the review box was separated into 6 boxes kind of like a egg carton or box of chocolates and I felt bad that my responses took up 3 boxes, even though 1 box I put a rose and another I put a chocolate idk what I was doing lol. So I took my food and left and I ate it really fast and was sad because I was still hungry so I was thinking about how maybe I can make some bourbon chicken later. Also I remember another place I had went had me do the women only review thing too

Before I went to McDonald’s I had been walking around Walmart looking at stuff, I remember looking at the football themed stuff for some reason lol thinking tbat ok damn wait Walmart actually has game like this stuff doesn’t look too bad some of this stuff would make good gifts, there was a huge brown real leather duffel that was supposed to look like a football, they had water bottles, trophies all kinds of stuff.

I also looked in the Christmas area and almost bought something but told myself I already had that thing at home and just had to find it and stop just repurchasing stuff when it got lost and I didn’t feel like looking for it. So I put it back, and when I got home I actually did find it

Also when I got home, by where I found that thing, I also found a pillow under my bed tbat I didn’t remember I had so it must have been under there a while. I was confused bc it was the matching pillow I had to a small pillow on my bed so now I could put them by my side but I knew I didn’t have 2 of that exact pillow irl but I just followed dream logic and shook off the confusion and put the pillow back on the bed and then I woke up

DEILD
I woke up without moving or opening my eyes. I knew that + the fact that I had just woken from a dream meant I was in the perfect state for a deild plus my whole body was tingling. I started to get thrown off by the fact that I could hear my fan and was I even really asleep and I started to get scared that I was wasting time and missing my window to have a deild and in my head I was like should I just do dreamWalker instead and not even try deild, but I remembered it’s easier to re enter dreams you just woke up from instead of making your own scene so I started remembering my dream but the part when I was still at Walmart, not in bed with the pillows
After a few seconds of this, I opened my eyes and was standing in Walmart


LUCID DREAM

there was 2 workers in the aisle with me one was asking if the shelf she’d be working on looked good and the other was a supervisor and she was saying no lmao. I wanted to get away and work on my personal goal in private and when they both turned toward me I got really mad bc my dream characters are always trying to interrupt me and distract me and an angry scream directed toward them started rising in my throat but I managed to tamper it down and control myself 😂😂😂 Bc I know from experience my DCs dont tend to react well to that so I tried to politely ask where was the bathroom bc I was planning to use the mirror as a portal to the void again but when I passed an empty aisle I ducked into it and decided to use the spinning technique instead so I just started slowly spinning in a circle affirming to enter the void aware and I got into it so I was extremely excited and affirmed for my wish list but then it turned into me floating in a galaxy so I knew it was just another fake and i woke up soon after that. I thought about trying deild again to dream chain but wanted to write down the experience

I'm in a small pool doing a lap in the water. The pool only has two lanes and has an 'L' shape to it. Around the corner of the 'L', the pool rises up several feet. like a ramp. I get up it no problem and coming back down I'm just able to glide through the water without effort. The water maintains the ramp shape through here like it has Minecraft physics. I get back around the corner and I'm paddling hard. I feel like my technique is good but a person yells at me from the side saying my strokes are too long. I get out of the pool and go sit on the side. A couple of ladies start talking to me about the swimming and areas where I can improve. A guy, similar to Oliver, comes up and starts trying to sell me on some kind of course for swimming but I politely decline. I leave the swimming area and begin driving to the mountains to go to a ski resort. The roads are very slippery though and I slide up to a roundabout first, and then a stop light.

1. Hypnagogic imagery that consisted of me going to a nearby water park and seeing lifeguards, going down the slides, etc. Altogether quite pleasant.
2. (Full non-lucid): Water parks again! This is a very common dream for me. I was going down an indoor water slide. The slide tower had 2 different slides you could go down, and each of those 2 slides had 2 different tracks -- one chill and one more intense -- so a total of 4 tracks.

I went down one of the chill slides first. I was wearing my Zion Half Marathon shirt but took it off before getting on, and held it up in the air while I was sliding so it wouldn't get wet (dream logic).

Somehow, as I was sliding, a lifeguard told me that if I moved to the left side, where the slide somehow diverged in two, I would get a way bigger drop. I managed to shift over, but then my alarm went off right as I started to go down the slide. D:

Okay I'm back.

My sleep has been really disrupted the last few days. Some IRL drama really messed with my flow in this comp. (Here's hoping its one of those comps that gets extended and gets a third week.)

I did two WBTBs this morning until I got some results. It wasn't a good LD. Normally I don't count LDs for comps unless I'm really lucid, but I'm feeling generous to myself so I'll count this one.

I had some memories of earlier sections of the dream. I was on a beach with purple sand. The sand was crystalline, like grains of ground-up amethyst. I was also at my grandparents (father's side) house for part of the dream. The kitchen was rearranged weirdly and my grandmother was baking something. I rarely saw her cook or bake.

I was in some OTD environment. It seems like a dirt field, like an industrial junkyard with old broken concrete and scrap metal and stuff sitting around in piles, surrounded by trees. On one side the trees open up revealing a view. The field is on top of a shallow hill which stretches out over to a city with some tall buildings. I am there, (semi)lucid and in dream form with some dream figures.

One of them is examining my form, while a few others stand around. She is one of the 'higher ups' is being gentle and relatively respectful about it so I don't mind. I've spent a lot of time in dreams and immersive daydreaming tweaking it and I guess is schematized pretty well and she muses about it seemingly very impressed. I only stop her when she pulls up my shirt and starts poking me in the stomach. She says something like "you have a very interesting abdomen" and I sense that she is scanning me. In some variations of this form the internal anatomy is also changed. I politely asked her to stop poking me there as that (waking body or dream body) is generally off limits. She obliged. Seemingly much more moderate and willing to listen than most encounters with these individuals.

I remember her offering me to explore higher dimensional space as compensation for her getting to examine me. I agreed, knowing it would probably net some interesting results for the dream comp and creates a portal. It sort of looks and behaves like Dr. Strange's mirror dimension. I travel through the portal and find a strange alternate version of the space I was in. Everything is beautiful painterly shades of orange, red and purple. I take off and start flying through the trees, though I'm also shifting through higher dimensions as I do. The entire scene distorts and melts into swirling caustic blobs and the dream destabilizes around here.
