Lucid Dreams
Old LD from 7-4-07 I took a little nap this afternoon and had another lucid dream in which I attempted the Task again. Nap Lucid: I know the dream was longer, but I'll start when I became lucid. I was somewhere, and I suddenly needed to go home and it was going to be a very long walk. I decided that it would go a lot faster if I just flew. So I took off flying. I flew along for a moment at a height of about 6-8 feet off the ground. Suddenly it hit me--if I'm flying, I must be dreaming. And--I'm lucid. I decided that I really wanted to try the Task again to see what other Dream View Members I could find. So I started looking around for people. I flew a little higher so I would have a better view of the streets I was flying over. At first I was seeing no one. Then I looked out in front of me and I was a group of guys playing basket ball in the street. I got excited becasue I just knew I was going to be able to make at least one of them be a DV member. But as soon as I got close enough to start making out features and trying to decide if anyone looked familiar...I woke up.... Still it was a good feeling to be able to become lucid again... and so naturally. I really hope this means my dry spell is really over.
I woke up in my dorm room. I felt as if I had woken up too late. I wanted to look over to see if my room mate was still sleeping. I turned my head over and tried to open my eyes but I was having a lot of difficulty. They felt glued together or something! I managed to look down finally for a brief moment and saw that my room mate's bed was empty. I looked up and suddenly she was screaming in my face! Startled, I jumped out of bed and did a reality check. Six fingers - Dreaming. I looked around the room and wondered what to do in this lucid dream. I thought about flying, but considered that I should do something else. I realized that I really should have came up with some more lucid goals while I was still awake. Perhaps I could visit the MDRC as I had been planning to months ago, before I got distracted by something else? I just wasn't really too sure. So I stood there for a moment just thinking about how I should spend this dream. I thought about jumping out the window and flying off, but then I also thought about how this MIGHT not be a dream, though I was pretty sure it was. I looked out the window. I was pretty high up. I turned back around and noticed that there were strange pajamas hanging on our door. They were silk and had bat wings on them. I didn't remember my room mate having these. Swimming also crossed my mind. It would be pretty cool to do that too. And then, I got a good idea. Dream drugs! I decided to drop dream acid. The room around me expanded outwards like a fun house mirror. I walked to the mirror and looked at my reflection. I looked really weird. I stared into one of my eyes. Slowly, my reflection began to twist around. Everything but the eye I was staring into began to swirl and orbit this single eye until it morphed into intricate circular patterns.
Old LD from 7-3-07 Lucid dream /Tasks: I have vague memories of sitting on a chair at a round table and staring at the ground. I remember things being somewhat fuzzy. As I was looking, I suddenly realized that this was a dream. Everything still felt extremely fragile for a moment while I got myself fully immersed into the dream. And then, there I was. I am unsure where this went from here. Several things happened in this dream, and I am trying to get them in the right order. I think at this time I stood up and looked around. I was in a big school auditorium. There was a small stage in the center of the room. It looked like a band was getting ready to come on and play. I could see other people (maybe 20) hanging out. I suddenly remembered I had Tasks to do. I searched the crowd. There had to be a DV member in this crowd. I coldn't see anyone that I recognised. I then saw some band members coming out. I thought, "This will be so easy. I'll make sure CoLd BlooDed is the guitarist." But then the guitarist came out, and it was a guy with blond curly hair. I was beginning to feel frustrated that the DV members weren't appearing. This was supposed to be something I was good at. The next thing I remember was being in the air spinning around. It came to me that this is the first time that I had ever spun in a dream. I was glad I was doing it, because hopefully it would help me to stay lucid even longer. After spinning. I started flying across the room, back and forth. I then decided that I should try the Advanced Task of going through a portal. There were no mirrors in the room, but I did see a dark dark spot (about 3 feet diameter) on one of the walls. I decided to aim for that spot. I sped up and went feet first into that spot. I was successful. It was a portal. All around me I could see more circles that I was going through. And the feeling was incredible. I came out in another room. I had to do it again because it felt sooo good. So I started flying around the room and aimed for the dark spot that was on the wall in this room. The same thing happened. .....the continuing circles and that wonderful feeling. I did this several times going from room to room just enjoying the experience, until I was back in the original auditorium. I looked at the walls. There were murals painted on the wall. Some were paintings from the Peter Pan movie. I could see one that showed Neverland. I decided that I really wanted to go to Neverland. So I decided to make the painting of Neverland be my next portal. I flew again, feet first at the painting. I went through. There were no circles this time. I tried to make out Neverland. I wanted to be in the sky looking down at the island. I could see it. But the detail was so bad. It was like looking at a poorly done painting. I didn't have the feeling of actually being there. I suddenly decided that I had done enough with portals and that I really needed to try the DV member part of the Task now. So when I came out back in to the auditorium, it was now filled with people sitting at tables. I decided that i would make myself confident and assume that this was a DV reunion. I sat down next to a lady at one of the tables. She looked like she was dressed up to be in a movie. She had blue make-up all over her face and had what looked like a bleached blond wig. She also had glasses, and I believe she had a bright green shirt (or outfit) on. I didn't recognise who this was. But I realised that it could be any number of DV members under the costume. So I sat next to her and asked, "Which DV member are you?" She answered and said "Clairity." I said "Hi Clairity, do you know what other DV members are here?" She points to a table and says, "Well, that's Gomer, and that's Ivan." I felt disappointed because those were not DV members that I knew. Gomer then stands up and comes over to Clairity and for a moment I think he is about to flash her. But he doesn't get his pants down very far before he bursts out laughing like it's some inside joke. Gomer then starts to take charge. He is holding a clip board and some raffle tickets. He then announces that everyone needs to get a raffle ticket if they haven't yet. They are only five dollars, but this is covering the cost of the reunion and everyone who has a ticket will be able to take home an audio recording of this event. For a moment I feel a little insecure--I have no money with me. But then I realize again that this is just a dream. And at that moment I woke up. Edit: I just checked. There are DV member named Gomer and Ivan...both are lurkers with no posts. Funny how I was able to pick actual names of Members. Although with a site this big, it's not that great of a coincidence.
Old LD from 6-6-07 I just had a mini lucid. I had slept in some and was going to get up, but I felt disappointed that I really didn't remember any dreams, so I decided to try one more time to try to squeeze out a dream or amybe even a lucid. Dream: I was looking at a house with my mom and sister to buy. This one was for Sale by Owner. It ened up being a ver big house. But there were many odd things about it. It was very junky--the previous owners had left all their junk and garbage. There were many floors. The top floor was about four stories off the ground and had a great view. But there was a part near the front where the floor and the wall didn't meet so there was a 10-12 inch crack. The previous owners had put some chicken wire across it so that nothing --or no one would fall through. On the way down I noticed that one of the staircases was wobbly. I wiggled it a bit and heard it it crack, and it then broke free and fell to the lower floor. That was the thing that made us decide that we really didn't want the house. I told mom, "This house is really big, but I don't think it was built very well.". The next thing I remember is that I am going down a school hallway on roller blades. I tripped on something and almost lost my balance and thought, "Whoa, that would be very embarrassing to fall down here in front of everyone. So I was extra careful after that. I got to the Kindergarten hallway. I noticed a display hanging on the wall. It was how one of the classes used cooked lima beams (mashed) and jello to create this wonderful moldable substance. They had displayed a jack-o-lantern and other things that they had shaped out of the stuff. The color was a light clearish orange. Another teacher came by and she also mentioned how neat she thought that was. I pulled out a paper and was about to write down the recipe. Then two more teachers walked by. They were talking about weightloss. Then I was back in the original big house. I was standing by the window. I saw a very tall cypress tree by the window. I notied it was moving. I thought it was moving because of the wind (it had been very windy in real life all night). But as I looked closer, I noticed that it was actually moving past the window. "It's walking!! A walking tree...just like the last Lucid Task." I thought. "I am dreaming! I'm having a lucid dream! I have to find my cat so she can talk to me..." I looked around. I saw the garage door in front of me I knew my cat would be there if I were only lucid long enough. But of course at that thought I felt the dream start to fade. And then I woke up. But this is a great sign. This often happens to me before I get it right. So I am hoping/expecting to get the Task done in the next night or two.
Old LD from 5-30-07 I got to have a good nap today. And I ended up having a nice mini-lucid. I don't remember how it started but i was at the top of a very tall building and I started thinking something like, "If I were dreaming I would jump". And then it hit me that I was atually dreaming. So I let myself fall. At first I was thinking how I didn't feel any wind on my face as I fell, then as I thought that and became conscious of it, I did start feeling the wind on my face and the wonderful sensation of falling and knowing that it was okay. I must have lost lucidity at that point because that is all I remember of that dream.
Old LD from 5-23-07 Yes--I had a Lucid Dream!! It started in my neighbor's backyard. I was talking to my friend N who supposedly lived there. We were discussing the problems we had with our yards. As we stood there in her yard, I could see right through the chain link fence to see my whole yard. Both of our yards were very large. They were all sandy dirt and had junk laying around. I commented on how messy our yards looked. I said, "Look at how my yard slopes. It's hard to have a yard look neat when it isn't level. You're lucky yours is level." But as I looked at her yard, it was only level where we were standing, all the rest was uneven with ditches and hills. Then I looked at the green plants growing. I pointed it out to N. I said, "You see all that green stuff that looks like grass? Well, it's not. Those are baby tumble weeds. They are going to grow up to be huge and ugly, and when you try to pull them up, you'll get all scratched up with their stickers. She then said she wasn't sure what plants I was talking about. I said, "You can see them better if you fly over them." And at that point I started to hover in a horizontal position a few few off the ground and started flying over the little tumble weeds. "See..?" I said. She looked at me and smiled and said, "C----, you just like to show off." BLAM! I was dreaming. Of course, because I was flying. Funny that I had a bit of a delayed reaction in figuring that out. The first thing that comes to my mind is to complete the Advanced Task. I needed to find a tree. I looked over into my yard and saw two poplar trees. Unfortunately they looked dead. I didn't think I could make a dead tree walk around. So I kept looking. In the far end of the yard I saw another poplar. I stared at it really intensely and willed it to pull up its roots. I could see it start to come up. I could see its roots emerge from the dirt. I then willed it to walk. It started forward. As I watched it move, I realized that something wasn't quite right. I looked closer at the tree's roots. Under the roots I could see little wheels. The tree wasn't really using its roots to walk, but intead used little wheels that it hid under it's roots. I thought to myself, "Will I get credit for this? Maybe I should try again." So I looked over at another poplar tree. I stared at it until it too came up out of the ground. But this tree, instead of trying to fool me with its roots, just had wheels....and it wheeled itself away. I started feeling like I had to hurry. I started pulling up tree after tree at this point only to find that all my trees had wheels and no roots at all. To make matters worse, all the background in the dream suddenly went out on me. Everything but myself and about 8 wheeled trees was a flat light blue. I felt like we were in a computer--like the Matrix-- and someone had messed with the background color. Then it messed up again. I was now trapped in a dark blue room. I had to get out. I ran at the wall with the intent of slipping right through. But I hit the wall. After several times of being unsuccessful, I decided to try something different. I thought if I closed my eyes, then I wouldn't be fooled by a wall that wasn't even physical to begin with. So with my eyes closed I ran at the wall. I ran further than I thought I needed to go and started to feel like I had made it, then blam. I hit it with the top of my head. I tried two more times with my eyes closed. But after no success. I decided to just do flips--like I often do in LDs. As I did the flips I felt so good. I remember thinking, "This feels so good, why am I bothering to do anything else at all in my LDs. I should just do flips the whole time." So I stayed in the room completely content for the next few minutes just enjoying the sensation of dream flips. Until I finally woke up.
Estava de pé numa estrada de terra ao lado da casa de uma tia observando o cenário até que meu personagem resolve começar a voar, nesse momento percebo que era tudo um sonho e mesmo sem fazer nenhum reality check começo a controlar o meu personagem durante o voo pela cidade observando outros personagens no caminho. Ia subindo cada vez mais até que cheguei numa rodovia e nesse momento comecei a tentar modificar o cenário para um de minha escolha, mas aparentemente eu acabei concentrando muito nisso e por fim despertei.
DreamLucidAwake I had a dream character appear as a buddy in all my dreams. I don't think he ever said his name, but I named him Chris and he responded to it. Nightmare Tunnel I was running through some place we called a "nightmare tunnel" with a dream buddy. The walls of the tunnel were odd swirling shades of yellow. We were running along a bridge/platform from zombies. A trap door then opened in our path and I fell in. I was in a dark room now and I walked down the hall towards the light. Now I was in an arena like room with high walls that prevented me from getting back to Chris. Suddenly vents opened and thousands of spiders poured out of them. As they surrounded me I suddenly realized that if it was a "nightmare tunnel" then that means I'm in a dream. I slowed down time and did a high jump before they could start crawling on me. While I was in the air a few of them tried jumping at me from the walls. I teleported out of the way to a wall with out spiders and then leaped over the arena to get out. I found myself alongside Chris again and now running from zombies, ghosts, swordsmen, and spiders. The bridge suddenly ended and below was just a bottomless pit. Chris turned around to face the monsters and prepared to fight them. I decided to take the easy way out and push him off the bridge. I then jumped down into the pit myself. I saw a bright flash of light and I found myself laying in a field. I got up off the ground and found Chris. I explained to him that it was a dream and we could do anything. So we both got the idea to play around with the low gravity. We did a few jumps and flips before quickly becoming bored with that. "There's nothing to do in this field." Chris said. "Sure there is!" I said as I summoned a slinky. "What are you going to do with that?" He asked. "You'll see." I placed it between my hands and then magically expanded it to the size of a house. We then jumped on top of the slinky and I made it fly high in the air. I then added some spins and spirals to the flight to make it fun. Once we got past the clouds I decided to let the slinky fall and jump off. I was now happily free falling through the sky. I completely forgot about the landing part though and I hit the ground hard. I immediately got right back up full of energy. "Ouch, that hurt a little." I said with my hand over my side. "You just fell 1000 feet and you're okay with that?" Chris asked me surprised. "Ha ha, if this was real life that would be a broken rib." I said laughing. Sadly the dream started to fade away at this point. More things may have happened, but I can't remember. A Grim Future I was inside an old rundown building. It was abandoned and looked like no one had lived there in years. Chris from the last dream was by my side again and was exploring with me. As we moved around the house I started to notice that it looked a lot like my home. We were on the second floor but didn't find anything interesting. I fallowed Chris down the stairs and into one of the larger rooms. I recognized it as my living room and realized that it was my home. I then shined my flash light near the couch. In the light I saw the two dead bodies of my parents. "What the hell is happening here?" I thought out loud. "You time traveled, remember?" Chris answered. "How far did I go?" I asked him. "About a few years I think." He said. Through out the house I found more dead bodies of family members. I also found several animal bodies of pets I've had through my life. I woke up shortly after. The Honor Code I was in the living room of a very nice house. That's all I can really it say, it was fancified. I found Chris sleeping on the floor. "Chris, get off the floor." I said. "I was sleeping" He said annoyed. "Look outside." I said while pointing to the window. We walked to the window and looked outside. The ground was covered in a thick layer of snow and there were gray clouds covering the sky. We looked to see a caravan sinking into a pond and a many people drowning. Medieval soldiers soon arrived and worked hard to get them out of the water. "Shouldn't we go help them?" I asked. "Not unless we're in the army." He said. "Seriously? We can't help people unless we're soldiers?" I asked in disappointment. "I heard they're offering a 3 day trial period. That should be long enough for us." He said. "Well then let's go!" I said excitedly. I turned away from the window and saw a man of about my age in the living room. Looking at his clothes I could tell he was associated with the military but only a squire. He was messing with a few statues and antiques in the room. "Can I help you?" I asked him. I startled him and he dropped the small vase he was holding. We both looked at it as it fell to the ground and shattered. He looked up and smiled sheepishly. "It's not mine but you're paying for it." I told the squire. "I was sent to help you find the barracks." He said. "Okay..." I said expecting him to explain more. "We must go there for you to sign the honor code." Chris explained. "Lead the way." I said. We walked outside into the snowy weather and the squire pulled out a map. I tried reading it, but I couldn't make sense out of it. He pointed down the road leading to the village and we followed him. Unfortunately the dream kind of skipped straight past the village and into the barracks. The squire pulled a golden tablet out from a desk drawer. He motioned me forward and handed me a quill. He started rambling a bunch of nonsense that I kind of ignored until he mentioned magic. "This golden tablet is the honor code. It is magical device that will decide if you're with or with out honor. Just sign right here." He instructed me. I took the quill and signed the tablet, but it was more like random scribbles. I then stepped aside so Chris could sign. Neither of us blew up or anything so I figured we passed. The squire then scribbled something on a scroll and said we passed. The next thing I know I'm at a fair with rides and stuff in chainmail armor. I knew my job was to watch for crime and keep peace at the event. Despite this, I walked up and down the street trying to find Chris. "Chris! Where are you?!" I shouted into the crowd of people. "Right here." He said as he walked up to me. "Where the hell did you go?" I asked. "Rollercoaster." He replied. "I see you also got cotton candy..." I said staring at the bag of pink fluff strapped to his side. "Want some?" He asked. "Yup!" I said happily. So we spent the rest of the dream just sitting on a bench and eating cotton candy. As with all cotton candy, it was tasty. Pointjackers It was a bright sunny day and I was riding a rubber raft in the ocean. My sister and a weasel were also in the raft with me. I saw Chris in the water working hard to push the raft. "Why did we bring a weasel?" I asked Chris. "New dream law." He said. "And it's a law because...?" I asked confused. "There's been a lot of dragon sightings around here lately. Everyone is now ordered to have a weasel at sea. It will protect us from the dragon." He explained to me. I then saw a large white dragon leap out of the water nearby. It wasn't aggressive and it swam away. I noticed that me and my sister were wearing colorful electronic knee and elbow pads. I read the screen on my elbow pad (impossible in real life) and it showed 1000 points. I figured this referred to power points and could be used for defensive abilities and magical attacks. I placed my elbow on my sister's knee and gave her half of my points to add to her defenses. Thanks to our training from the last dream, me and Chris knew much more about fighting dragons than her and I was worried that the dragon could still attack. It appeared a few times, but luckily we never got in a fight. We started to approach an island with slides and swing sets. It looked exactly like the playground I usually visit in dreams except it was surrounded by water and sandy. We got off the raft and stepped onto the beach. Unfortunately Chris said he had more rafts to deliver. The whole island was essentially the playing field of a game. There were many children there wearing colored knee and elbow pads like us. I noticed many of my family members sitting on the beach, but I didn't bother to greet them. I kid then ran by me at a super speed and smacked my elbow with his elbow. "Ha Ha!" he taunted. "Fricking pointjacker!" I yelled at him. He had taken 35 points or so from me. I couldn't ask my sister for any of my points back because I felt that would be dishonorable. I also knew she would need them more because these guys were hardcore. I wasn't interested in taking power points from other kids either as that was like stealing money to me. I just wanted to play around like I usually do on the playground. I saw a wooden toy intended for climbing on past the swing sets. As I walked over there I stayed close to the swing sets where these gamers were too busy swinging. I got too close though and took a foot to the face and fell to the ground. I turned onto my back and saw a fat kid get off the swing in front of me. I stood up to face him eye to eye (sadly I was a foot shorter in this dream). It was the kid that accidentally kicked me in the face. "You tryin' to steal my points?" He said in an attempt to intimidate me. "No." I said firmly. "I thinks you are." He said smugly. "Just passing by." I said. I had already started walking towards the wooden toy again before he could get out another word. I wasn't in the mood for dealing people like him. So I started climbing multiple platforms and layers inside the structure. I stopped when I heard footsteps coming from the ground below me. I snuck to a position where I could remain hidden and observe. I saw the same kid from before wandering around below trying to find me. I jumped down and tackled him to the ground. I held him down until I had absorbed all of his power points. "Please go away now." I said irritated. "Mommy!!!" He cried and ran off. "Finally." I said to myself. I walked over to my family sitting on the beach and just looked out into the ocean. The dream faded away after this. End Chris seems to be a much better dream character than most. He just makes things more fun. Unfortunately I didn't take his hints that I was dreaming. I hope to see him in more of my dreams.
I was at home about to sleep when my cousin Sharif and his family arrived unexpectedly. I got up and greeted Hana first and then went to greet Sharif. I then saw something bizarre; I found my younger cousin Suzanne(11yrs old) lying on the floor with a mullet crying. At this point I realized I was dreaming and everyone other then my self just disappeared. I then decided I wanted to run through a wall at full force. When I tried I found all the walls were elastic like a rubber band but I could pass through it like a bubble. So I grabbed the wall and pulled it as far back as I could and then allowed it to fling me through the wall. When I finally got on the other side I found a strange combination of ocean and space. I had the sensation of being underwater but the view of planets and stars. When I didn't think the dream could become stranger I saw a large spherical object in the distance with blue and white lights on its band. It was spinning and moving rapidly to my location, as it approached me my brother sleeping in the same room as me sneezed very loudly and "woke" me up ending the lucid dream. This was my second lucid dream and it was awesome all until my brother ruined it.
I was in an elevator with a classmate at uni. I suddenly became lucid and my classmate turned into a really ugly girl. I realized this was NOT COOL so I took a second to compose myself and try and get the dream under control. I had a few seconds of heightened sense, I could see heaps of details and everything felt very textured. The girl turned back into my classmate again, only now he had tattoos all over his body, and so did I. Then I got bored, so I tried to spin myself back to my house. I started spinning and the dream went black. I could make out some shelves, way up high, but they faded and the dream ended.
I was at my old job, working in the wareshouse. I was driving the fork truck and carrying out my duties. Then a stack of pallets fell over, people were scrambling around and it just felt weird. I pinched my nose and breathed in and out, at first it didn't work, then it did, but only in 1 nostril which was weird. So anyway, I know it's a dream now and i'm lucid, although not 100% in control, I begin to climb up the racking and for some reason, the racking is not metal anymore, its made of those cotton buds you're not supposed to clean your ears with, huge cotton thingys. All the contents of the racking is food goods, lots of sweets and chocolates etc, it's amazing. I knock something off the racking, I am very high up at this point, I see DC's running to pick it up, I find this funny so I do it more and throw chocolate bars at them, i'm so childish lol. Anyway, I am able to climb more and more for some reason, there are other DC's up there too. I guess this is where I lose lucidity as the last thing I remember is DC's chasing me. I am alsmost sure there was more to this dream however I just wanted it typed before I forget completely. Thanks for reading
Alright, so I was at the supermarket, shopping I assume, and saw an old teacher of mine. I went up to him and shook his hand - then I became lucid. The scene changed to my bedroom where I was on my bed observing the bizarre situation of myself frozen on the bed with another me in work clothes. Don't make me try to explain that any better. Then I closed my eyes and felt waves and waves of vibrations. I opened my eyes and saw a little blue monkey facing away from me on my desk chair. I remembered reading about seeing things during SP and so I closed my eyes again because I was sightly scared of the monkey. More waves of SP. I opened my eyes again and the monkey was staring straight at me. I pulled myself out of bed, because I wanted to go visit my roommate. I was really heavy and everything became blurry as I lumbered across my room. I shouted 'clarity' but nothing happened. The monkey was still watching, and I was freaked that it was just gonna like jump at me or something, but it didn't. As soon as I got to the door, the dream ended.
So I haven't been sleeping well lately. I also have not been having LD's for a while. I had two very brief ones over the course of the last week. I wrote about one already. The next day I also had a very brief one. I went to bed about 3-4 am and couldn't sleep. I stared into the blackness and tried to get some visuals going. After a few hours of nothing I began to see bright colors, vivid techni-colors like walls. I imagined it like a tunnel and tried to create an opening like a circle at the other end. I could see through the tunnel and on the other end was my dream space. I had been thinking earlier in the night about dreaming I was in Florida by the pool. There it was right through the color tunnel. I managed to reach it and could feel myself split between my physical body and dream body. I was by the pool and in bed. It switched over to me just being by the pool. I was very excited. The dream wasn't fully formed. Everything was blank or unfinished. I remember jumping into the pool of water then going over to the side of the pool and picturing a girl there. She was there but she had no features. No face, just a blank body. I remember reaching over to her to bring her closer to me and the dream started to fade and then my consciousness slipped fully back into my body. As I lied in bed sleepless I began to slip off into small patches of sleep and wake back up again. At first I didn't notice but I began to recall having dreams. They weren't long. I must have been falling asleep for short periods of time like 5-15 mins tops then waking back up again. I tried to focus on the blackness and tried to "spin" my vision. Like a mini-galaxy I spun what little white there was around and around. It is a little hazy what happened next but I think I opened another "portal" and entered a LD state. I recall getting out of bed and walking up the stairs on the inside of my house. I know it was my house because as I walked up to the third floor I looked at the wall and saw there was no window. In my house there are two windows there and I saw they were absent. I remembered realizing it was SUPPOSED to be there. I was forming the dream around me and just had not added the windows. I walked into the third floor apt looking for people but no one was there and once again the place was not "fully formed yet". The place was being "built" around me. I don't recall much else except the fact that the LD wasn't very long and it faded away like the other. I sent my daughter off to school then laid back down to try to get some sleep but it still wouldnt come. Eventually I started to drift off into very small periods of sleep again (only a few minutes each) however they were semi-lucid dreams. I was lucid to a certain degree and only had control over my own actions, not the environment. I must have had about 10 of these mini segmented LDs before I finally just got out of bed.
(False) WILD within a Dream: I wish I remembered details better on this one. I do remember that I was involved with doing something within the dream. Then suddenly I started seeing the ocean. It didn't go with what was happening in the rest of the dream. My dream self suddenly "realized" that I just had a successful WILD. I felt so proud of myself. I decided I wanted to get closer to the ocean. Instead of flying like I usually do, I just pulled the ocean scene closer to where I was standing. I could see the setting sun gleam off the water and boats in the harbor. I remember just thinking about how beautiful it was and how real it looked. I also remember that I was conscious of my "physical body". I was very sure that my physical body was standing in the real world. I could feel my arms hanging at my sides. I thought it was really cool that my mind could be seeing something completely different from my real body. I continued to stare at the ocean scene in front of me. I then carefully lifted what I thought were my real arms. I placed my hands over my eyes. I could see a faint shadow of my hands which darkened the ocean scene. I thought it was fascinating how I could be conscious in two places at once, and how I could be moving my real body yet not really seeing it because my mind was in a dream. Then I "woke up" and went back to my original dream. This kind of dream has happened to be several times before where I feel like I have entered a dream, yet I still am very aware of what I think is my real body. Yet the whole thing is all in my head.
I remember being out in the field and taking other troops out. I don't know how I did it initially, but I ended up taking someones assault rifle and magazines after I killed them. It took me like 5 minutes to put the clip in because the clip had some dust cover that had to be flipped off in order to connect it. Anyways....more killing ensued...and I found myself in a car with Mrs R. She kept hinting at how she wanted me...and then she turned into SGT C. We were at a red light for minutes, so I knew it had to be a LD. I told her, we might as well do it right now in the middle of traffic. We started taking off our clothes and the sex started out pretty real and just got awkward. (for you people who never know how awkward my sex in dreams gets, I'll explain it) It was like her vagina and uterus was on the seat next to her and I was inside it, and she was tethered to it by random bloody tissue and ligaments. Anyways....I had to stop and wake up.
