    1. First entry since trying to improve dream recall

      by , 12-05-2010 at 02:01 PM
      I had 4 dreams last night, and the weird thing is I know there were 4 dreams but I only seem to remember a tiny tiny thing of one, and then the entire last dream.

      Awake, Comments, Non-Lucid, Lucid

      Dream 1:
      I was in the subways in Brussels, a city I have lived 4 years ago, and I was together with someone (don't remember who though..) All I remember from this one was wanting to light a ciggy while waiting for the sub, but dropping my lighter on the edge of the platform, and said lighter breaking in half.

      Dream 2:
      I am in my appartement, and am having dinner with my dad, two sisters, and my mom.(Since my parents are divorced for a couple of years now my mom isn't supposed to be anywhere NEAR the appartement so I guess this could be seen as quite the DS right?) After dinner, as I always do, I go outside on the balcony to smoke a ciggy. Said balcony has bankerai flooring with about 1cm space between the planks. As I finish my ciggy I want to put it in the ashtray, but it falls on the floor and between one of the cracks.

      Next thing I know, a lot of smoke starts coming from under the planks, and a bunch of very angry wasps fly out. Panicking I run inside and close the door, but 4 of them manage to follow me. I grab the nearest thing (a newspaper) and furiously start trying to hit them with it. This succeeds, but next thing I know my dad yells that there's a scorpion on the ceiling. As I look up I see this black shiny scorpion about 5 cm long, that's just letting go, so I jump aside, throw away the newspaper, grab a shoe and crush it with that. (Ever crunched a cockroach with a shoe? That sound:p) All of a sudden there's a whole lot of scorpions in the appartement so I try crushing as much as I can, smacking one of them off my dad's leg. By now, the scorpions have changed to these big, sandcolored ones. I could see all this in quite nice detail, I mean, if I stared at one of them I could even see the innards through the back of the beastie.

      Here the dream jumps, but I'm still in my appartement, still with the scorpions, I'm just standing somewhere else right now, and my cat is sitting next to me, hissing at the scorps. (Another major dream sign, my cat stayed with my mom and has hence never been in my appartement...) My dad is yelling at me that I have to take a little bottle of water and use that to hit the scorpions, but first I should hit my cat on the head and behind with it (which I proceed doing). I then all of a sudden notice a hole in the wall through which the critters are apparently getting into the appartement (by now the scorpions have been joined by cockroaches as well). I grab a roll of kitchenpaper and try plugging up the wall with it. (Eh..what?) But the critters just push it out of there and keep coming.

      And another jump. Now I'm in this paperstore, talking to a guy and his wife. The guy looks like the guy from the shop where I buy my tobacco, his wife I don't recognize. I'm telling them what happened in my appartement earlier, but suddenly the conversation shifts, it went like this:

      ME: "Yeah I saw this hippo being attacked by a crocodile today."
      GUY: "Oh yeah I heard that story, that hippo certainly put up quite the fight against that snake right?"
      ME: "Dude, didn't you hear me, I said crocodile?"
      GUY: "Yeah that's what I said, huuuuuuge snake!"
      ME(getting pissed off): "Are you deaf or what?! I said the hippo was attacked by a crocodile!"

      And then I woke up next to my girlfriend, immediately closing my eyes and trying to remember. Weird thing is, at first I knew nothing, until the word scorpion jumped to mind, and then it all came back

      Comments: First of all, I was really pissed at myself when I woke up, since my mom being at my appartement, AND my cat being there, should've made it perfectly clear to me that I was dreaming, but apparently it's not all that easy and I'm just not trained enough yet:p I'm happy about the clarity of the dream, and the level of detail I remembered
      One weird thing I noticed though... this just came to me while typing it all out... The short first dream seemed to be about a lighter breaking while wanting to light up a ciggy. The second dream everything got started by a ciggarette, and in the second part I'm talking to this guy which my brain apparently gave the face of the guy I buy my ciggies from. What does this mean? Anyone willing to comment on it, you have my gratitude
