dream fragment

I had a hard time sleeping last night, so I didn't take notes whenever I woke up, rather than move and spend another two hours trying to fall back to sleep, I tried to lay as still as possible so that it's only take a half hour or so to fall back asleep. I did jot down the notes I could think of when I woke up, but by then most of the details had left me.

Spoiler for Music:

Dream One: I'm glowsticking in the street again. (We live on the end of a street in one of those round turn arounds, so we never get any traffic except our close neighbors) I've got yellow glow sticks this time, and I'm alone. My husband walks up and tell me I need to stop so he can show me something. I think I'm semi lucid at this point because I stop, and I get this feeling that makes me very excited and happy. I'm thinking he's going to take me to Kurasawa because that's what I usually ask dcs to do, but then instead he takes me where our yard would be... but our house isn't there, all that's there is the ten we camped in at the beach a couple weeks ago. Inside, the lap top is set up and my husband is trying to show me something on the lap top. I'm only halfway paying attention, it's a video about glow sticking, but it's not a tutorial it's just some chic swinging her stick and I'm quickly growing bored and want to go back outside so I can do it myself. I feel my attention being pulled to outside, I just know Kurasawa is out there now. I rush out of the ten and a few steps towards the road, then I stop. Kurasawa is there, and he's glow sticking?! He's only spinning them forwards at his sides, but the circles are so even and his speed doesn't vary at all. I think, damn, he looks like he knows what he's doing... not just playing around like I am. Then He smiles at me with a mischievous smile, and I think he asks, "Miss me?" But them I woke up >.<

Dream Two: I'm again on the road, this time after spending a good two hours trying to relax and fall back asleep from waking up the first time. My husband is there and we're walking. For some reason though, I think I become semi-lucid. I realize I can just leave my husband standing there on the road and it won't matter. I walk up to this strange house that I've never seen and is far too upscale for this little redneck "housing" development that has more trailers than houses. I knock on the door, and realize that I can open the door and it won't have any repercussions. I also realize that I need to visualize the inside of the house as I open the door, and what kind of person I want to find there. I imagine a guy who looks like Johnny Depp in the movie Sleepy Hollow being there when I open the door. For some reason though I'm scared someone in the house will see, so I slowly open the door, when I see the sleepy hollow guy walk by, I call out to him, and he comes to the door. He quickly but gracefully slides out the door and closes it without making a sound. He takes my hand and starts walking me towards the street. I tell him we can't go too close to the street because my husband is there. He starts pulling me closer to the woods then. We stop at the tree line, and he looks around for a moment as if to be sure no one's around, then he cups my face with one hand and wraps the other around my waist. He pulls me closer and kisses me lightly as he holds me, and says something about how he cherishes these stolen moments. I wake up, lol.

Dream Three: I'm on a swing set, swinging with my kids. I'm at a strange house that I don't recognize though. A couple of guys, one with a lot of piercings, walk out of the house. They start talking to me, and I think they're related to my husband somehow. I ask them, and they tell me that they're not related, just share the same last name or something. Then they tell me I need to go inside and check out what they made. I walk inside, and my mom is at the kitchen table and there's a Christmas tree on the table made of green jello?! My mom claims the guys who just left showed her how to make it. Then she starts talking about what a pain in the ass it was to carve in all the little pine needle details. For some reason I think the thing needs to have more pine needle details and less "snow" because the snow makes it look weird.

Dream Four: I'm in some sort of Classroom, then I leave and come back. When I come back, there are people arriving dressed in cosplay. There's one girl who's actually got four pony legs and feet instead of her normal arms and legs. I marvel over her cosplay for a moment, and think I've seen her before with shorter "legs" and ask her about it. She tells me that yeah she's put them on stilts to look more life sized. I see a box on the floor nearby, it's a box with the Disney movie Tangled's princess on the front (Rapunzel). For some reason I run over and grab it and try to open it. Then a guy comes up behind me and says, "Hey! That was my box!" then he sees I tried to open it and starts crying. I'm not sure what to do about a full grown man crying, then he cries, "That was my birthday present! I was supposed to open it, not you!" I appologize and make some weak excuse that I thought it was a classroom puzzel and didn't realize it was his, then I ask him if I could tape it back closed would that make him happy again? He says yes, so I start looking for tape, and he starts crying again, "There's no tape! You can't tape it back together!" I tell him there has to be tape we are in a classroom after all, and all classrooms have tape! Then I see some on the teachers desk and tape the box back and give it to him. Then I walk to where I think my seat is, and notice everyone is opening their text book. The textbook has Black Butler on the cover! I start looking for the page, number 835, but my book only goes up to 350, then I flip back through the book looking for a page that looks like the page everyone else is on, and I find it, but book 835 is out of order and in the 250s. The teacher starts talking about Japan and I realize this is a Japanese class. Our first lesson is on Desu, and when the teacher says desU, I point out that "Don't they say Des? isn't the U silent?" and she tells me she doesn't know where I heard that but it's not the case! And she goes on talking about japan with a horrible southern woman drawl... not the sweet kind you'd hear in a movie like gone with the wind, but like the catty and snobby white and trashy woman kind. I think to myself that there is no WAY I need to learn to speak Japanese from this woman, it'll only get me laughed at if I ever actually have to speak it! But then I realize that I can ignore the way she says shit, and just learn the meanings of the words so I could read Japanese manga and not have to wait for someone to translate them. Then I wake up.

Dream Five (Fragment): I dreamed that my best friend went to her sisters house and washed her hair, then posted the video on face book. I was watching the video in the dream, so it's hard to remember exactly what was being said and done. I just remember her sister being uncharacteristically happy about having her wash her hair, and her normally straight dark hair looked lighter, curly, and frizzy. Oh, and they used the sink, so no one was naked lol

So I keep waking in the night with an abrupt start...adjust my hair, and turn over to fall back asleep. And this is the result...




I am E-Con, God of Lucid Dreaming. It is my duty to send out bolts of lucidity to all the dreamers in the world, and I take in energy from the people on DreamViews.

I am in a white room, though 'room' isn't a good descriptor. It's more like a place that can't be quantified by mortal dimensions. Behind me (visually) are what appear to be cloud-like walls, though I suspect they are just a construct of the mind to give an area boundaries.

Before me is a large spinning disc, electrically charged with the power of dreams. As it spins bolts of energy (lucid dreams) are sent out in all directions to be absorbed by the dreamers of the world.

I seem to be angry...or perhaps determined...as though my task required a lot of attention and I had nothing to spare for questions or diversional thought. If someone were to walk up to me I would probably respond by yelling or simply ignore them as unimportant.


And I wake up.


I think I like my job better as a DG.




I had at least two other dreams but I can't recall them now. Too much headache going on today. :(

{This one is from last night.... 04 June 2012}

(Non-Lucid... Fragment only)

I’m inside the 'airside' departures at a large international airport, airside, like Amsterdam Schipol..
There is a huge area of glass window.. Its just slightly light outside... I think its really early morning
I'm looking out across the tarmac, and runway, thats all 'lit up' seeing planes taxi-ing, taking off and landing

My dad makes a strange type of pasta. It is infused with caviar and fish. He tells me to try it. I say okay and get my chopsticks.

It's been a while, and yes, I've been slacking off.

Anywho, this first dream occurred two nights back. It was certainly interesting, and certainly enjoyable. Water seemed to be the main theme of it. It began with me starting to play some online flash game of some sort. It was for three players, and each got to be Tom & Jerry-esque characters, either a dog, a cat, or a mouse. I was a mouse, and the other two were the cat and the dog. The person playing the cat's voice was strikingly familiar, though I can't recall who. It was a strange, yet fun game where we'd be zooming through streets on miscellaneous objects, flying through pipes and construction sites. Things in the like. The part I remember most vividly is when we were on a board attached to a boat that was going considerably fast. We got pushed underwater, and were still on the board and attached as well. I saw many creatures that concerned me, having a strong fear of going underwater in the ocean. There was a sea turtle that was much larger than us, and it tried snapping us as we passed by. I then closed my eyes, and waited for use to reach the surface again. I don't remember much after that, besides me leaving the game and walking around, only to find an apartment where I could hear people mumbling about where the mouse went. The next part was strange, but very relaxing. We were at a concert, one that was much like "Woodstock", except we weren't in a field or a forest or anything. Instead, we were in tree-huts that were stationed in tropical palms. We stayed in these for a couple of days. The stage wasn't far off from our huts, quite nice of a distance, really. Each one of our huts had a title of sorts. Mine had to do with lizards and my mom's, who's hut was right next to mine, had to do something with houses. My brother's was farther off, and he kept making fun of the names of our huts, though the insults weren't quite clever. He said things like "You hear of cats and dogs, but never lizards!" which, I didn't take much offense to, really. We stood over the ocean in the day, a good 100 feet over it, and it never seemed to be sunny, but only cloudy, which is my visualization of paradise; a cloudy beach. From a small window in my hut, I could see large and lavish hotels with pools and quality service. I kept saying "That's a beautiful home." for some reason. When we were to sleep, for some reason our huts would move lower towards the ocean. My hut had a bit of water flooding into it, but I could still sleep on the ground, though I kept waking up in fear of this leopard shark that seemed to wander near our area. I never did hear a single band play though.

I'll try to be more consistent with these.

I am at Ahmed Elian’s house. I have slept over at his house. I wake up and ask him if he had a Lucid dream. On his iMac, he says “no”.

Dream One (Fragment): I'm sitting "Indian style" on the ground and I have pink glow sticks in my hands. I'm just fiddling with them, giving my eyes something to focus on while I'm listening. Vesta is walking circles around me, and we're talking. I'm telling him about what's going on in my life right now, and apologizing for not calling him lately. He doesn't seem angry though, I'm not even sure if he's capable of being angry, lol. I can't remember what he said back to me though, it was mostly an emotional unloading for me.

Dream Two: I dream that we're going to the beach again (my husband, kids, and me) but we decide to stop at a zoo on the way. When we pull in, it's obvious this isn't your typical zoo. The parking lot is small and made of dirt. There are two white tigers by the zoo entrance. Instead of having black stripes though, one has sky blue stripes and the other has cotton candy pink stripes. They're real, not statues, and when we park they slowly make their way towards us. They sniff me as I get out of the car, and I tell the kids to stay in the car until I've checked out if this place is safe or not. It scares me to think they let these tigers run loose because even though they may mean well, I've heard that tigers can think your playing with them and accidentally injure or kill you because they don't realize how much weaker than them people are. I walk to the gate to talk to proprietor, and I am assured that the zoo is safe and that the tigers wouldn't hurt me... they're just guarding the place. This seems like a contradiction, guards would hurt intruders... how do they know where not intruders? I start to go back to the car to tell my husband and kids that we should leave, but they're already out of the car walking up a wooden ramp into a side entrance in the zoo with my bff and her husband. I start to follow them, and there's a beeping sound at my side. I reach for it, and it's a pokewalker (the little things that come with Pokemon heart gold and soul silver that are like pedometers) It's beeping to alert me that there are hidden places in this zoo that I need to find to earn some sort of prize in game. I decide that since my family is already inside, I might as well go in also. A map appears on the pokewalker screen to lead me to the first point, but then I have to find the others on my own. The paths through this zoo are made of wood planks and some are even enclosed. The animals aren't in cages that I can see, they're just roaming free. What keeps the visitors separate from the animals is that the walkways are all up high. I remember seeing some rhinos, elephants, and giraffes in a field from one walkway. I also found a pond at one point full of giant goldfish. I think these are Goldeens (the pokemon) but then my rational brain kicks in for a minute and I realize that pokemon aren't real... so they must be regular goldfish or koi (that was such a missed reality check!) Then I pass a couple who are standing over a wooden door like what you might see leading to a cellar. The guy is telling his girl friend that through that door, under ground, is where the zoo is breeding it's snakes. He says something about how it was too dangerous for the snakes to be frozen and shipped here, so the zoo started breeding it's own. I walk back into an enclosed walk way wanting to put distance between me and the snakes, and I wake up.

Dream Three: I wake up in a hammock, in a little two room house (not two bedrooms, but the bedroom is one room, then a kitchen/livingroom combo is the other room) I walk out onto the porch, and my uncle is walking up the steps. He's telling me good morning and saying that he came up for a visit. He says he arrived late last night and all my lights were off so rather than wake me up, he slept in the car. I express that I'm worried about him because it's dangerous outside. I tell him that some sort of animal has been breaking into the yard lately ripping apart my kids toys and digging holes. (true story actually... must bother me more than I thought if I'm dreaming about it) He asks me what sort of animal it is, and says he never saw anything while he was sleeping. I tell him that the rest of the family thinks it's a wolf (we are actually thinking it's the neighbors dog) but that I was wondering if it could be a fox. Then I talk about how I feel really bad for the foxes around because people are hunting them and I don't want them to die out then go on to tell him about Kitsune supposedly granting households their protection in legends. I'm pretty sure the dream the night before influenced this one, but I'm not sure why I dreamed of Kitsune then because I haven't read any manga or watched any anime with them in it in months. None the less, something has sparked them to appear in my dreams. Suddenly my uncle becomes my dad, and he's telling me that if I want to protect the foxes, I need to do something about the hunters hunting them. He leads me down the road, where I see this hut with tv cameras and such set up. A big hefty redneck man is walking into the hut carrying a couple dead rabbits over one shoulder, and three dead foxes over another. I learn that there is a reality TV show where hunters are competing to see who can kill the most animals and get the most points. Foxes are apparently the highest points, so the hunters are mostly going after them. My father asks them to stop hunting the foxes, and they tell him the show makes too much money to quit and they won't do it unless he can find them another profitable venture. My father tells me and the men to follow him, and he leads us through some woods into a field. The field looks like a normal grassy yard that hasn't been cut in a week or two, except that everything is HUGE, as if we've been shrunk (Like in the movie "Honey I Shrunk the Kids") There are some yellow flowers that remind me of tulips but they are shallower and have orange centers that fade to yellow and lots of little brown spots. My dad is saying that these giant flowers look similar to tiger lillies, but they're not. Still he says, they are very unique and the man could make a huge profit from them. The hunter man says that we can hold a competition to see what makes more money, our giant flowers or his hunting show, and if we win they will stop hunting foxes. I start to walk to another giant flower, they're so pretty and I'm shocked I've never seen them before if they're so close to home. I hear a sound at my feet and look down to see a copperhead at the base of the flower, I jump back as it lashes out. I barely miss getting bit and I run back to the tv station to escape. When I go inside the tv station, I end up inside a room with another girl who is sitting alone in the only chair in the room. She's really cute, and she has her bleach blond curly hair in pigtails as if she's trying to appear younger. She's offering me my prenatal vitamins, but I look at her and she is so skinny and I can just tell that she needs it more than me. I tell her no thanks, she needs the vitamin more than I do, she looks like she's about to cry and starts talking about how she's pregnant and how she doesn't want to be, apparently she thinks starving herself to death is going to solve her problem :/ I get down on my knees, and I hug her and tell her it'll be ok, having kids is actually a lot of fun and she'll feel differently when the baby is born. She's got to just barely be preggo though because her stomach looks normal. She starts crying more but smiling at the same time, and I lay my head in her lap for some reason, but it seems to help her relax. She' petting my hair and I realize that we're inside the tv station and they may be watching us. I remember that my dad doesn't have a clue that I get crushes on chics too, so if he's watching I'm going to get yelled at. Then suddenly I remember the foxes. I have to win. I look around and all the doors are gone. All I can see is a door above my head set into the ceiling. I can't reach the door, but I have an idea. I ask the girl if I can stand in her lap to reach the door so we can rescue the foxes. She nods, and i try to carefully stand on her knees, avoiding her body and belly, and reach up. I pull a cord hanging from the door, and the door falls open. Plushie rabbits with big empty hole like black eyes start falling through the door filling up the room. I can hear the redneck hunter man yell out, he's angry because I've somehow beaten him by opening this door. I wake up.

Dream Four (fragment): I'm with two other girls. There's some sort of giant eyeball like monster with thick dark purple tentacles (anime fans, I SWEAR it's not THAT kind of dream, lmao) The girls have to defeat this monster, but they want me to help. They tell me I have the power, I just have to use it. Then the transform into animal like creatures. I can't remember what the one turns into, but the other one turns into a pokemon ( https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...xmhPjzBPfQ3JQJ ) and I feel like I'm glowing a whiteish blue, and then I feel myself falling forwards. Then I realize that I've transformed as well. I can see my feet are hooves, and I swish my head and feel like there's something on my head cutting through the wind. I'm a blue white unicorn! We charge after this eyeball creature, and I try to spear it with my horn, but I can't see to aim it and keep missing. I realize I need to practice before I can use my horn successfully in battle, and I should try something that I can see when I'm attacking with it. So I rear back and kick out my hooves and start trampling and kicking this monster while the pokemon chic tears into it with her teeth.

Dream Five (HI?): I'm in a car about to be hit by a bus, I realize I'm dreaming and wake up just before it hits.

Dream Six: I'm hanging out at Dominos, chatting with my old co workers while they work. My best friend's sister is there, and somehow she's now the manager. I'm talking about how much things have changed since I worked there six years ago. Ali (my bff's sister's nick name) asks me if I will come back and help because they're really busy. I say sure, I miss working there. I go back to find a shirt and hat, but I can't find them. I ask her where the hats are and she tells me that they must have run out and she's going to have to order some. I wonder if guys with long hair would have to wear hats only or pull their hair back in a pony tail under their hat like us girls, this causes me to wake up.

I walk into my bathroom to shoot a super intelligent evil brain that lives there. I open the door a fire a few shots then leave. As I walk away, I hear loaud explosions coming from the bathroom. I know somehow that the brain is not dead. Instead it transformed into a young Indian girl. I turn around and meet the girl. I say to the former brain, "so know you're a little Indian girl. A lot more happened, but this is all I can remember.

Monday 04 June 2012

I am in my grandparents’ house in Kentucky. I walk around exploring the place. I walk into the guest bedroom. I get on my knees and open a cabinet. I find some jackets in there. I pull one out. It is black and seems uncomfortable. I hear coins in it’s pockets. I reach in and pull out a handful of coins. They are Chinese yen. Cool, I think. I keep the coins.
Shame this is all I can remember. This was one of those dream epics.

I have a faint dream about the Boondocks. It is dark. I see a few of the younger characters. We are on a porch. In the background I see Huey Freeman hang upside down from a rope. He slowly lowers himself to a table and takes the objects on it.

Things are unclear but I remember something like this: I open someone’s bag ( I think Jenifer lopez’s) and I look through it. She had asked me to find her maltesers. I know they are there and I find them in the bag. I act and talk like I can’t find them. I then eat most of them

I don't remember much, and it wasn't lucid, but I remember being on a boat, possibly more of a yacht. The sail was white, with very thin black stripes, and the same stripes going across. so it looked sort of like the paper on the pages of my maths book! that would be the best way to describe it.

The other thing i remember is quite spooky though. The boat sailed itself across the coastline of an area i have never seen before. the assumption that i made of the appearance of the buildings across the coastline, and all the boats docked there was Monaco. As i write this i have searched 'Monaco Coastline' on Google and have found some of the pictures almost identical.

Maybe I'm destined for Monaco!

The one before about me being a mistress. Non lucid. We lived in this beautiful celebrity mansion. The man was a famous black dude, can't remember if it was for movies or sports or what. I was his mistress. The big, beautiful wonderful awesome bedroom belonged to his little blonde wifey (bitch), and he and I just hung out and slept in the entertainment room. Which was a freaking movie theater basically. We were watching something on TV, and I was settled on the floor, while he was on the couch, both of us dozing off, or so I thought. I felt something tap my ear, and it was the guy, fucking with me. I remember thinking that I didn't want to have sex, just like the assistant manager dream from the other night. And another thought that doesn't go here.

Later I went looking for my room. I assumed that's what I was doing. I was misssssserable. But I saw this amazing bedroom. It was so incredibly high up, and had beautiful, opulent furniture. Like the bedroom in the Zeffirelli rendition of Othello and Desdemona's bedroom. It overlooked the sea... like WOW it overlooked the sea. Then the shitfuck blonde came into the room and said it was hers. I was sooooooooooooooooooooo depressed lol. Then a few minutes later I found out she was sleeping with Ted Danson. Some drama later then I woke up.

I remember being so stressed about sofie and ziggy, because of the carpet. I detest carpet.

And then, Aaron dream.. I just, don't want to expand upon this.

And one the other night where I went to a vending machine to get my starving family a single bag of chips, but when I opened the swingy door part, there were bags upon bags of junk food: chips, honey buns, chocolates... the machine had just upchucked way too many, so I grabbed it all.

Stressed about a triginomotry class when I havne't been to class. Couldn't finish the exam because I started with lengthy essays. Feel as if I will not graduate with a passing grade. Somehow went lucid and got the heck outta there. Flew through the window and was flying up in a larger room doing somersaults in the air. While flying I decided to conjure my subconscious. When I land from flying there was a girl sitting at a desk. I know she is my subconscious but she doesn't want to admit it and she didn't want to talk to me.

That is the first time I've had my subconscious be uncooperative . Frustrating. It usually works wonderfully - they take the shape of a random person and answer any questions about myself. Pretty amazing stuff. Though one time I made out with my subconscious.

This one was short and not too memorable. Frustrating really.

Posting these today for yesterday since the Dream Journal system wasn't working

Dream One (Fragment): I was dressed up in a pony costume :/ No clue where or why though

Dream Two: I'm on the beach at night looking up at a sheer cliff. There are about ten women hanging on the cliff so that their backs are against the cliff. They seem to be suspended somehow by their upper arms or chest and all are wearing dark but flowing dresses. One woman with long curly black hair is talking, "We are the mermaids of this isle. We will rescue our friends from the depths of this ocean, and protect them from drowning. However if you should cross us we will not hesitate to drag you to those very depths and drown you. Murder is not beneath us if you threaten our harmony." Then the women kick their legs out and the dresses become tails as lightning crackles, then turn back into dresses when the darkness returns. They leap one by one off the cliff and land safely on the ground. The one who spoke motions to me and says this time, "Come." She leads me up a gentle slope cut into the cliff, and then we're entering some sort of house on the cliff. I see a bed, and a man who has fallen half out of the bed. There's a girl there who reminds me of Fluttershy for some reason and she's holding a green bottle of what I can only assume is medicine. I rush over to the man to help him back up into bed. The fluttershy girl seems very stressed and unsure of what to do, and she's wringing her hands as she paces from side to side saying something like, "Oh I just don't know what to do for him! He's been so very sick, and he just fell out of bed and bumped his head on the night stand. Do you think he's going to be alright? I can't even get him to take this medicine." I tell her to calm down, for some reason I fell like I know this guy and he's been waiting on me. Now that I am here he will be ok. I sit on the floor, and pull his body up into my lap. He groans weakly in his sleep, and I run my hand across his head shushing him and hoping to offer some comfort. I hear a door open nearby, and look in that direction, a younger girl walks out, she seems to be in her mid to late teens. She looks at me and scowls then says something. I can't remember what it was, but the dream continues that now I know that I'm in trouble of angering the mermaids because they've fallen in love with this man and they want me here to nurse him back to health, but they're afraid he'll fall in love with me and not one of them. The rest of the dream is kind of a blur. I get him back in the bed, I am washing my hand when someone interrupts me and my hands are covered in slimy pink soap but I can't rinse it off because they've pulled me away from the sink. The head mermaid is furious because all of the mermaids are fighting over this man, but she can't kill him because she's in love with him too and she isn't sure who to punish or how for disturbing their peace.

Dream Three (Fragment): I'm hanging out with Tom Cruise in an apartment that he claims is his. We're talking about our kids, and then he starts showing off all the hard work he did in remodeling the apartment. I am flabbergasted to hear that he did all the work himself and tell him that celebrities should have enough money to hire someone else to do the remodeling for them. He tells me that He likes to do it himself because he feels accomplished in it and he knows it's done right. Real celebrities probably don't humble themselves this way, but the dream left me feeling like maybe they're not the stuck up and bad people the seem like on tv and in magazines. Maybe some of theme are like the rest of us, hard workers who take pride in what the can accomplish themselves.

Dream Four (Fragment): I find my pokemon cards from when I was a kid. I'm so sad because the binder they're in is tattered and dirty. I can't even find my favorite cards! This dream woke me up for the day because as silly as it sounds, it's something that stressed me out so bad. I am so sure I never got rid of my pokemon cards from my childhood because they were such a big part of my life for a couple years. I may have gotten rid of all the common cards, but I for sure kept the foil cards! Only, now I can't find them anywhere and I worry that they were thrown away and I just don't remember. The dream made me anxious to look for them again to make sure they're ok and I couldn't fall back asleep I would so love to find those cards now that my kids are into Pokemon cards. They would love to see them.
