Fragments for 10-18-13 (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Something about doing rodeo while riding a flying horse (it was not a unicorn, it was a regular horse that could fly without wings) I was trying to catch another flying animal (that does not fly in real life)

Something about Atlantica Online test server.

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

I was at home and playing some video game.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was watching some anime that looked like naruto series then there was some fight and characters met someone in a cave.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing some platformer and there was one level in huge building with windows, lots of stairs and doors locked with keys.

Dream 4:

I was apparently in some shmup game flying through skies controlling some spaceship and i had to fight enemies that looked like mashup of fraxy parts and apparently lego parts. The level progressed into some kind of space station and my weapon became weaker. Then after a while i was randomly back at home, every monitor was playing various anime and i walked to another part of the house, i came to a window and suddenly i was back in shmup game fighting more enemies in the skies. Then level boss appeared which was some kind of grey space plane thing.

Dream 5(fragments):

I was in some kind of flatland place and i was talking to somebody, he was saying that we have not enough resources to get better at the game or something like that.

Dream 6(fragments):

I had to destroy some mechanism part by part and then there was some old man with pink beard.

I'm at Daryl's old house in my home town. I walk inside, and it now becomes a big factory.

I'm now watching Connor McGregor and someone who may be or looks like Mike Pyle. It's the first couple of seconds of the fight, and Connor catches Mike with a right handed jab, which makes him stumble onto his backside.

Now I see Diego Sanchez (DS). I hear someone say that they miss the DS of old. DS says that he could win the belt once he beats Connor.

I'm walking outside, on a deck that's built above the water. I'm trying to make my way back to somewhere. As I reach the corner, I see that I'm blocked by 3 ladies. I think it's a ladies only entrance. Some of the ladies get up and allow me to pass. One of the ladies jumps into the water, so I decide to join her and follow. I reach a door and see a box. I open the box, expecting something to be inside, but it's empty. I wander around outside, searching for something.

Dana White has told me that when I go inside the factory no one will be there. I realise I won't be able to see any dream characters etc. (I think Dana meant, when I'm not in the factory people are there, but as soon as I enter, they leave

I try and sneak around through the front door to exit the back door to hopefully fool one of the fighters into thinking I'm not coming towards them. I start to wake up and I see the back door, but it looks like it's fading. I try to focus on the scene which makes it more vivid, but I lose it eventually.

False Awakening:
I check my iPod touch to see how long I have until I have to wake up. I guess the time would be around 8.50am, but it's 8.35am

Dream Fragment:
I fall over unco and I get back up.

Dreamsign Missed opportunity

Clark's advice
I'm walking around in a bare house listening to Clark Howard on the radio. A man has called in complaining about discrimination against him at work. He says that for years, he's had ??? on his computer, but recently they decided that wasn't appropriate. The guy rambles, never really getting to the point, and Clark is getting annoyed with him. When he finally does get to the point, Clark is quiet for a while, and the guy says something like "Are you still there?" which annoys Clark even more. As Clark keeps asking him questions, the story changes. It's no longer ???, but now it's games the guys plays on his computer. He still doesn't see it as a problem. Now it seems that Clark has managed to remote into the guy's computer and is poking around. He doesn't find the ??? or the games - instead, he finds porn, and he tells the guy that he could be fired for that.

Graduation + bad driver
I'm at the Christ College graduation. I'm hearing (maybe giving?) a commentary on what's going on and what I'm seeing. My viewpoint is drifting slowly over a path as it winds back and forth across a small stream, past flowers, and eventually reaches a single banquet table. At the table are the president of the school, my father, and four young men who are graduating. I know one of them, and I'm acquainted with one of his friends. The banquet table is sitting out on the grass. It's a beautiful day.

Now I'm walking down the street after leaving the graduation, and I see the two graduates I know. I go up to them and comment that I'm amazed they've left already, and that at Tech the graduation would be going on for hours yet. I had to interrupt their conversation to say it, and it took some effort to get their attention. Both of them are dressed in black suites with a splash of red - maybe a flower?

Now I'm in a parking lot with my wife and kids. A guy in a small red SUV comes in too fast near us and does a terrible parking job. He's just letting his family out, so he doesn't care. He's entered his spot at a fourty-five degree angle, and the side of his car is a fraction of an inch from the bumper of car in the next spot over. My family was nearby, and I'm amazed he didn't hit them.

Now it turns out that he was so close to them that they got pushed inside his car, and we're all in his rear cargo area. Now the car is driving back out of the parking lot. I try to get the guy's attention and ask him to stop the car so we can get out. He sort of acknowledges me, but he keeps driving. I don't know what to say. My wife says he lives on the island, as if that somehow explains it. I think that maybe he's taking us to a better place to drop us off, but then I realize we'll have to walk back to the car. I have a moment of confusion as I can't remember where the car is. I remember that it's where I was talking to the graduates, but I also remember that it's in the parking lot we just left.

For some reason, I don't want to speak my thoughts aloud to my wife. I consider writing them on the tablet, but that's too slow. I'm reminded of the trouble Robert had in Rainbow's End when he first started wearing and was using the eye-board.
Now we're at an intersection. It's just a 2-lane road either direction. As we're waiting to go, I notice he's listening to the radio.

Pizza and a baby
I'm taking my baby and another of my children into a pizza place to pick up our pizza. I'm not sure how I'm going to hold the baby and the box of pizza at the same time.

Ok, this time I did not WBTB but woke up around 5 anyways from a dream, so I was almost forced to do WBTB anyways.

Dream 1: Me and my family and cousins were in some sort of apartment watching a football game with weird furniture. It was a weird apartment with one big room with the door then there was a little hallway to bedrooms/bathrooms/etc. People were talking and not paying that much attention to the tv anyways, kind of like a family get together type thing. Anyways someone was trying to flip channels to find the football game and flipped through a news channel that was talking about police chasing an armed gunman outside. Nobody seemed to notice or care but I was very cautious and wondered if he was in the building. So I went up to the door of the apartment which had some weird hand-bar instead of a doorknob, and I had no idea how to lock it. Just as I was trying to figure out how to lock the door a hispanic looking guy my age in a white bandana put his face right into the window of the door. I knew at once this was the armed robber/criminal and a wave of fear went through me, I quickly pulled down the lever and by luck I locked the door, I heard him shoot through the wall to try and kill me. I didn't have enough time to see if he shot me or not because I woke up a couple seconds after I heard the bang.

Woke up at 5 am. Finally managed to get back to sleep around 6 or 6:30. Woke up at 8 and set a timer for 8:15 and went back to sleep. Did not remember to record down any dreams if I had any at that time.

I was thinking about how I would position myself in the apartment if the gunman walked in and with what gun and where to defend my family. I tried to put myself back in the same dream, which worked in some ways and failed in others.

Dream 2: I found myself in a mansion, I was not surrounded by family this time but friends. Me and my friend trey split up and I guess I somehow knew everyone was fending for themselves against something hunting us. We went around the house and eventually came to the garage. There were many cars there and we were thinking about driving away but the thing chasing us might be outside. I was thinking about whether to choose a crappy gun with a lot of ammo or this gun I knew to be a machine gun but I had no idea if it had ammo or not. I shot it at the wall and sure enough bullets came out so we left the garage. As I was leaving I noticed a bike giving off sparks onto the wall, and I knew it would catch fire but we left the garage anyways, didn't have time to put out the fire. After that I somehow knew I had to get up soon, so somehow I knew there was no point in fighting. So me trey and a guy with a whip were testing out the whip and he tried whipping our feet in different ways and we took turns doing it. Trey got whipped by the guy then me then the dream was over... weird lol.

Guess the gun part of the dream came from the first part of the dream, the whip might have came from when I was reading about Frederick Douglass in slavery right before I went to bed.

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps. Had problem falling asleep for some reason so pretty much about nothing to recall...

There was something about a treasure.

This little short snippet of a dream had me trying to find a toilet. One phrase that I said stuck in my mind "I'm currently embroiled in a race with my own bowels. The problem is that it is running for speed, and I for endurance. We all know how that kind of race tends to go."

I'm with Kayley and her family (P&D) at a random house. I find out that she has lost her child due to a miscarriage. I'm trying to sleep on the couch, until Kayley's boyfriend arrives. I begin to rub my head due to have a headache/pressure in the head. The boyfriend asks what's wrong? I begin to tell him about my issue, but not long after I seem to stop talking out of my mouth and begin to start finishing the rest of the convocation through talking in my head. I tell him I'm sorry if you didn't get everything I was saying, because I finished the rest of the convocation in my head and couldn't help it. He understands and is all cool. I pass him a empty bottle of something, where I had my sweaty hands around the lid. Kayley and her BF decide to bake a cake. I joke around by saying is that gluten free cake?! and Kayley says yes in a sarcastic manner. I look at the mixture in the bowl and it looks pretty chunky, with apples through it. I'm thinking about maybe helping them.

Dream Fragment: (DEILD attempt)
I see myself in the mirror, and my body looks very defined, ripped lean muscle. I see the dream fading and I catch it and turn it into a DEILD. I focus on the last scene I saw in my dream and the scene begins to open up, but I get too excited and try to enter the scene too early, which ends my attempt.
I've been impatient lately, I really need to just let it flow and happen

I was packing for an air plane trip, don't remember where to or why, and I realized I had prepared 2 water bottles, and can't take those through airport security, so I had to figure out what to do with them instead.

I cannot remember too much of this dream.

What I can remember though is briefly visiting a zoo (Not too many details there unfortunately..!), and then heading home. In my arms I had a wild bird that I found while visiting the zoo, who was badly hurt. I was taking care of this bird, tending to it. My parents kept trying to toss the bird out of the window though, but I kept it firmly protected and out of their grip for the journey..!

Park - Fragments (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was a long dream, but I did not have time to write down even key words, as I had a busy long day, so I ended up forgetting almost all through the day.

I was in some sort of park that was on a hill. The hill had iron tubes, some made of plastic and it was very stip. It was about 400 feet tall and kids would slide down. Some kids got inside a pipe and jumped inside of it. I wondered how the kids did not get hurt.

Dream 1(fragments):

Some video game, exploring fairly dark hospital place, then fighting some enemies on the streets.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was watching video of what looked like old tomb raider game, the level was located in caves and was pretty easy, but author was speedrunning it instead, perfecting each movement and jump.

Dream 3(fragments):

I was playing Terraria with some people and i had a minigun that could fire coins(Didn't looked like Coin gun though) and 800 gold coin ammo for it as well as 600 of 'normal ammo'. The map was pretty small and instead of dungeon there was a huge castle. We were building small base near it and game was randomly shifting to 3D at times. Then we used a skull to summon skeletron a few times and destroy it.

Dream 4(fragments):

Something going on in the desert.

Dream 5(fragments):

Some kind of GMod-like game, someone was playing around with huge futuristic car thing running over a ton of NPCs.

1. First, I dreamed I was with a friend of mine. We were walking down the street, somewhere in Florida (I think), trying to find a park, and for some reason there were like sculptures that turned into other things, or they came alive and followed us... I can't remember...

2. Then I dreamed I was in some sort of mansion with lots of halls and rooms. It was dark, gothic, and maze-like. There was some sort of party going on. I was with a friend of mine, who was some sort of monster/vampire/demon (but he was friendly... at least to me). He was actually a much younger looking variant of the Warlock character who shows up from time to time, but he wasn't (as) self-aware. We both looked and acted like teenagers.
I was looking for a different costume to wear, he helped me sneak into a room but told me to be very quiet. The reason was because there were demons behind some curtains, and noise would wake them up. I was scared and very cautious about moving around the room. The room was full of all sorts of costumes and garments, and I picked out some crazy stuff. Think goth-on-acid. Then, we left the room. We went back to the main party room, which was like huge theater, and there were sculptures covered in gold on the ceiling. We went to another room, which turned out to actually be outside, and there was a whole field of lilies in the clearing of a forest. We wandered around in the forest, and there were different clearings with different flowers, including some lilacs with kind of a yellow-gold hue. My friend made a joke about me liking lilacs (I don't remember what it was).

3. The dream shifted (definitely a different dream) and I was in a farmhouse. I had several sisters, older and younger, the youngest was about 8. There was an "evil" sister, whose skin was all white, and she had huge circles under her eyes, and ratty blonde hair... we'd thrown her out of the house, and she was even supposed to be dead.
I send the youngest sister out to go bury the seedling for a tree. I don't remember why. It was daylight, but by night she hadn't returned, and at night the 'evil' sister was trying to get into the house. For some reason, if we could keep her out until midnight, she would go away forever. We had nailed chicken wire over the windows, so if she broke them, she still couldn't get in. I also ran around closing all the doors and locking them, including one that she almost made it to. She was sort of zombielike but I was worried she'd still be smart enough to find and use a wire-cutter. I spent some time rattling the windows with a stick to scare her away, but it would just draw her attention. The youngest sister I sent out never came back, and I was worried that my older sisters would be angry with me for sending her out. I was also worried she WOULD come back, and we'd have to open the door for her, and risk letting the other one in.
I don't know if we ever won or what happened to the youngest sister. The dream faded.

4. I dreamed I was underwater. I could breathe just fine. There was some sort of short blond kid I didn't recognize. I got an octopus stuck in my ear and it was really gross. That's all I remember of the last dream.

Still recovering my sleeping schedule from that spicy food encounter, my dream recall is getting back on track. I set an alarm for 4:15 am and could not get back to bed til around 7 am no matter what I tried, I put on white noise and put a pillow inbetween my legs, read my calculus textbook and "relieved" myself, all things that make me sleepy but to no effect. My dream recall may take a dip because I plan on sleeping for a full 8 hours so that once my body gets used to it I can go back to waking up at 4 and going back to sleep no problem.

Anyways here are my dreams from last night, or this morning rather:

7 am
Dream 1: I am in some house in a rural area. It looks like a vacation home and I feel as if my whole family is there but they all went out to go somewhere and I stayed home. I had to replace the batteries in this one device, it had 4 energizer batteries and the one that I had to replace said "16 weeks" and no charge when I did the little test on the battery. So I replaced it with the other smart living batteries. Im amazed how realistic the batteries were when I put them in. I get the batteries in the device and put the dead battery in the smaller device that works with only 1 working battery and its some sort of laser/flashlight. I lock myself in this small room and feel like I left my phone outside but see it on the table. At this point I suddenly become aware someone else is in the house. I am in the small dark room and I hear their footsteps outside. I try to keep my hands on the doorknob in case the person knows how to unlock the door and he tries to rattle it as hard as he can but I hold on until I wake up.

8:30 am (false awakening)
Dream 2: I feel like I wake up and am doing something in the basement when I see a white widow spider on tv, this guy is on a nature show and talking about the spider in its natural habitat. The spider is this giant spider thats legs span about 8 inches and has a white marking on the spiders abdomen. There is some gap in memory of the dream here, then I see a white widow spider right next to me so I go upstairs. My mom made this beef stew thing so I start eating it. I start telling her I need to eat whole grains while I eat this meal. The meal Im eating has beef, tomatoes, a crapload of jalapenos, and some green leaf or vegetable. (sounds kind of disgusting irl). At this point I tell her theres a white widow spider downstairs and we go down. Then I show her where it is and it starts running across a strand of string it has and right on to my dog shadows face. Im about to try to kill the spider before it bites my dog then I wake up.

Whats strange is the second dream felt so real as opposed to my other dreams I had no idea it was a dream. Other dreams I somehow know they are a dream but don't have the full conciousness to realize im dreaming yet.

Dream recall from today's WBTB/naps.

Dream 1(fragments):

Something was going on at home and then i was watching some fraxy replay, there was some boss that spawned walls of bullets from the bottom of screen while firing pattern fro the top.

Dream 2(fragments):

I was at home and there was some loud radio and an hot air baloon flying outside, then i noticed part of wall gone AWOL and everything faded. I wake up and hear weird sound, and feel that i am dreaming, i briefly see miniature shadowy terraria-like slime jumping on the table but it shortly disappears. Then i go for balcony but dream fades and i wake up.
