NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Day two of the "Month le natural", and I had a few interesting dreams last night. Small adventures, no lucid though.

21.00: Sleep

04.10: My uncle's children
I'm on a bus with a few coworkers. "You gotta be jealous of me" one of them tells me. "I mean because I can do all physical things, but you can't". "Yeah I am, I can't even hit back if I'm being attacked because of my damn wrists..." I say and make my eyes glossy for maximum empathic effect. We arrive at a house and I follow a guy in. I recognise the place, and the woman who greets us, but I'm not sure from where. I get startled as a few animals runs past me. I look around and see alot of chickens. A white duck shows up. "That one has killed over a hundred eggs, he's a real egg-killer" the woman tells me.

I walk around a bit and spot my uncle in a room. The door has been covered with a board to keep something small in. I walk over it and spot three beige puppies. "Oh, so my mom hasn't sold them yet?" I ask and kneel to take a closer look. I lift one of them up, it has transformed into a baby. He seems to like me and giggles. I hand him to my uncle, who looks very worn out. The next one starts crying as soon as I lift him up, and the third one aswell. All of them look the same, my uncle's triplets.

04.10: Fragments
*I'm with Monica and another person. She's trying on different dresses, none looks good though. She finds a beige one and tries it on. It looks amazing. There's a gap that shows her abs, and a long one down her back. She can't stand it though and complains about it being too tight, soon it lies on the floor. I've got a green coat or something on, and I jump with it and flutter the cloak. "I'm batman" I say in a hoarse voice. No one laughs at all, hmm, weird.

*I'm drinking blood orange juice. It tastes great! I think of my coworker "Krull". He usually has juice like this.

05.10: Offlimit
I'm with two guys, Dennis from work and some other dude. We're in the middle of some warehouse street, and infront of us is a border. A guard is guarding it with a machinegun. The random dude decides to try to cross the border. The guard quickly guns him down. I take a closer look and to my surprise it's my childhood friend's mother. She gives me a grin, showing all her teeth. Suddenly Dennis runs across the border and she tries to shoot him down, but she fails. Dropping the gun, she pursues him on some weird vehicle. I pick the gun up and shoot the remaining shots at her.

I hit her full on in the head with several bursts, but nothing happens. She has the important part of the gun. I run after them and walks around the area for some time. I bump into the guard again and I hand the gun over. "Thank you" she tells me. Suddenly I hear something behind the building we're standing infront of. I run to the back of it and arrive at a stream. Dennis is on the other side. "You lose! You can't cross the borders in this game, that's against the rules" I tell him.

05.10: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 8 hours

Supplements: None

That's it! Woop woop.

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

I went to the doctor’s office with my mom. Our doctor was an interesting woman with a voice and a personality like a man’s… Deep down, though, she still had that motherly instinct. She had a terrible habit of smoking in the hospital, which a blond nurse kept coming into the room to ask her to stop doing in front of us. It made no difference to her. The doctor explained that she only checked teeth on the first visit, so she had us each open our mouths and show her our teeth for three seconds. Once that was done, she took off her rubber gloves and shrugged.

“That’s it. See you next time.” Before we could leave, however, a white-haired man with glasses came into the room. He smiled faintly when he made eye contact with me.

“Excuse me, but I’d like to step in as this boy’s doctor starting next week,” he said. Our manly woman doctor put her hands on her hips.

“What? Why?”

“I think I understand why he’s here… Would that be alright?”

“Well, sure… As long as he’s fine with it, too.” Everyone looked at me.

“I don’t see why not…” I said. In truth, I just wanted to get away from this doctor’s smoke. Now that all of that was settled, we were able to leave the doctor’s office. I overheard my new doctor whispering something to the woman after we exited the room.

The dream jumped. We returned to the doctor’s office sometime later. My doctor was late, so the woman doctor took me into her room anyway. I noticed she wasn’t smoking… That was a good sign. She checked our teeth again, but she was a little more thorough this time. She paid particular attention to my teeth, and I thought that meant they weren’t doing so well, but she smiled after each of the three rounds of inspection. She only had one complaint.

“Try not to go so hard on your front teeth,” she said. “They’re in pain.”

“His teeth are in pain…?” my mom wondered in amazement. I understood what the doctor meant, but there was no way I could explain it to my mom. She lacked the experience to assimilate it. The doctor asked about my life and studies, so I explained my academic interests and lucid dreaming practice.

“I also work at an airport,” she said after I mentioned studying electrical engineering. “My job is to assess risks and input danger zones in the airport mapping system. We isolate areas with cones and what have you, then put the danger point in as a user under the protection platform with a timer for removal.” She shrugged her shoulders. “It’s a pretty complicated job sometimes, but I enjoy it.”

“That’s so good of you!” my mom complimented. “You’re keeping people safe at the airport.”

“Yeah,” I added, “and most people at the airport probably don’t think about…” My mom interrupted me, but I let her finish. Neither of us really listened to what she had to say. It’s not that we didn’t care, but it literally could not be anything important – we both understood this as a fact.

“Go ahead,” the manly woman doctor urged me after my mom was done speaking.

“Well, as I was saying, most people at the airport probably don’t think of it as dangerous. The ones who are terrified of airports are either scared of the people or the planes, and the people who don’t have that fear see airports as a fairly safe place. Without people like you, that wouldn’t be possible.” The doctor smiled. I almost expected her to give me a fist pump. The door to the room opened, and in walked my new doctor. I noticed he wore a white sword on his hip, but I didn’t say anything about it. The woman doctor started smoking again, and I covered my mouth and nose so I wouldn’t get a headache. Smoke gives me serious headaches…

“Oh? Are you smoking again?” my doctor asked. “When we met last week, you said you were going to stop that dirty habit…”

“It’s not me, it’s…” She trailed off as a red portal appeared behind my doctor. He drew his sword.

“It’s her!” A fancy, red car appeared beneath the huge portal. It drove out of the building and down the street. I saw it long enough to notice a woman with pale skin and fried, blond hair in the driver’s seat. Her eyes were as black as the night. Both doctors rushed to the front of the building, and I hesitantly followed them. My mom came along to tell me not to wander around the doctor’s office.

“We’ve got to do something…” the woman doctor said in a hoarse, choking voice.

“Well, that’s what he’s for, isn’t it?”

The dream jumped. I was in the basement of a store in the Imperial City of Tamriel. A bunch of women with bizarre, neon hair colors lurched around the building naked like zombies. I cut through their bodies with Apheri, and they dissolved into black shadows. I felt that this was all part of Oblivion. I wondered why there were still NPCs here, thinking that I’d deleted the mod that implemented them. I supposed their zombie-like behavior was the result of null dialog and a lack of AI presets; they didn’t know how to behave, so they just wandered around aimlessly. Anyway, once I destroyed most of these, I saw a girl sitting with her legs crossed on a rounded ledge built into the corner of the room. She was wearing a shirt, frilled black skirt. Her hands rested at her sides until I approached. Then she looked up at me and screeched. It was the woman who came through the portal at the doctor’s office! I saw her name for a brief moment – Lusark Decidies or something like that. Her black eyes seemed to suck me in, but then she transformed into a bloody heart. Her membranes attached themselves to the floor and the ceiling, suspending this pulsating lump of organic material in the air. I slashed across it, and she howled again as her blood shot out into the room. She transformed into a web of needles next. The area around her became a fireplace. There was some kind of weird, razor-sharp curtain attached to the mantle. When I rotated a wheel on the base of the mantle, this curtain was moved in line with the woman’s needle web. The whole time, electricity was shooting out of the walls at her for some unexplained reason. I heard voices talking in the back of my head.

“That final boss was boring,” one guy said.

“No way! The lightning was really cool.” I continued cranking the curtain wheel. The woman groaned at the pain. She shot needles at me, but I didn’t care. I was pretty sure I could survive if I just killed her quickly.

“You know, a lot of people compare her to Lady Gaga, but I don’t see the similarity.”

“What? She’s Lady Gaga’s oversoul. Didn’t you know?”

“I don’t think so…” I kept cranking the wheel, and the curtain got stuck on the corner for a bit. When I got it through, it started going toward the wall. If I could get it all the way to the wall, I would rip out all of her energy – I just knew this instinctively.

“She doesn’t try to stop you from finishing?” I asked the voices. The curtain was almost to the end.

“Sure she does.” A hand reached out of the web of needles, grabbing the curtain and crushing it. She was much more powerful than me; even turning the wheel at full force, I couldn’t keep her from jerking the curtain back. I put some more effort into it, but it was no use. I was losing. I heard the door of my room open and felt my physical body roll over. What would my roommate think if he saw me turning an invisible wheel in bed? I woke up.

I had a dream last night that I was in a kingdom. The kingdom was surrounded by empty space and if you walked off the edge, you would fall into nothingness.

I first remember being a person of royal blood in the castle but I'm not sure how or to whom. For some reason there was a queen who would decide who would be king and she was going to pick this one guy who was well known in the kingdom (I was not, I had no attention from others). I went into a room with the man and the queen and before she picked him, she picked me. After that, I never saw her again in the dream, but I was given the status of king. The other man was now general and left the kingdom to fight our enemies which I heard were Orcs but I never saw any. My subjects never payed any attention to me despite the fact that I was king.

I later found a guitar that was given to me because I was now king. It had guitar hero buttons at the top (5 buttons: green red yellow blue, orange was not there) that all lit up when I pressed them (Idk why, I haven't played much guitar hero since I got a real guitar 3 years ago). The guitar had a shiny black neck, sparkling red body, and the strings on it only went from the 15th fret to the 23rd fret, the rest of the guitar neck had no strings or frets, only the 5 guitar hero buttons at the top and the strings at the bottom 9 frets. There was an amp that was an ordinary amp. It was black and about 2 feet tall and 2 feet wide. I was excited about my new guitar and amp and started playing. I could only make higher pitched notes so basically all I did was fast solos. Random people in the kingdom started liking me and enjoyed my presence.


Looked like this kinda except with the guitar hero buttons I mentioned earlier and the frets.

I brought the guitar with me on my back everywhere I went. People started doing anything I said and if I wanted someone to come to me for aid with something, I would play and they would come. I am not that good at playing a guitar in real life but when I thought of a guitar solo sound in my head, my fingers played it. In the kingdom I walked around for many hours playing guitar and talking to people.

I remember one of the craziest parts of my dream was when on the side of the castle, there was a bus/RV that had about 10 people on top playing drums and trumpets and guitars and singing (it looked just like the intro to rock band 1 when they were all on the bus. I grabbed my guitar and amp and hooked it up and ran to the top of the RV and started playing with them but they all stopped and stared in amazement. I enjoyed all this fun in my kingdom but then it came to a halt.

There was a new enemy, my friend Jon who wanted me removed from the kingdom (he is one of my good friends so idk why he was the bad guy). He started making disasters in the kingdom like fires and he lied to people about me. He soon had control over all the guards and most of the people and some of whom were good friends of mine. I had 3 friends that didn't betray me who were not real people I know in real life just dream projections. I was arrested and taken to a room of the castle that had no ceiling and high castle stone walls around me with a gate. I heard an evil voice over the intercom say that I was going to be out of their way soon. I was very depressed. My kingdom was taken from me, my guitar and amp were taken, nobody believed me or trusted me, and I hadn't heard from my 3 friends for a long time. I then ran to the gate and saw another subject that used to like me and he told me to get back traitor! I told him the story of how I was being set-up and he said he still doesn't believe me. I then said, "Trust me". He then said okay I will and opened the gate. From then on anytime I told someone to trust me they did. I ran through the castle and encountered 2 more guards who I told to trust me and they did. I knew I had to get to my guitar and amp. I got to a room near the RV (the last place I remembered playing the guitar) and grabbed it in a hurry. I heard guards coming and knew I had to get away.

I ran outside and saw the RV along with the 3 friends I saw before. I started climbing up the RV and saw the guards in the distance coming through the hallways of the castle. I told my friends, hurry! Plug in the amp! They were setting up the amp when a guard grabbed my ankle just when I got to the top of the RV. He said, "you are under arrest for crimes against our kingdom!" I told him I did nothing wrong and I was innocent and then told him to trust me and he did and let go. I climbed up onto the RV and started playing as the guards started surrounding the RV. I could see Jon's face on a TV screen above the castle and he had been watching me the whole time with an evil grin until that moment. He looked at me with shock when I started my guitar soloing. Everyone stopped and stared in awe. I was back. I then told them that I was set-up by Jon and this was all a lie. They then were happy for my return to the throne and I climbed down from the RV and went into the castle to see Jon.

He was sitting on a couch in a small room watching a TV screen with a security camera view on it. He was throwing a temper tantrum and shouting "its not fair!" over and over like villains do on TV. I decided it would be fun to ride on the RV again and play guitar and shouted hey everyone, lets go back to the RV! Everyone followed (except Jon) and I climbed up on top and got ready. I saw my dad near the amp plug and told him to plug my amp into an electrical outlet on the side of the RV. He grabbed the cord and started going to the outlet and then I heard the sound of a fan (my portable heater in my room) and everything started getting brighter slowly. I knew in that moment I was waking up. I shouted to everyone that I was leaving and that I would most likely not be coming back. They all waved bye and I slowly woke up.

So much adventurous detail I can't remember was in there on the part where I was running through the halls looking for my guitar but I do not remember much of it. I had realized I was dreaming a few times and was lucid a handful of times but it lasted for 5 seconds each time and I don't remember those parts very well. (I know, I know, too much colorful text )

1. Something about a truck full of macaroni and cheese.

2. One of my friends comes to visit, and we go to a restaurant.

3. Ginger ale and watermelons are illegalized in Nebraska, and I do all sorts of strange stunts in order to make them legal again.

4. My house back in my old-old town is all dark and creepy. I'm looking at my reflection in the upstairs television, and get so creeped out that - without even RCing - I decide that I'm dreaming. I keep shouting that I want everything to be normal, normal, normal, normal... but instead of normal, I get a pair of poofy shorts. So I change plans and figure that instead of normal, I should be Sora from Kingdom Hearts. I give myself the wacky hair, the outfit, the pendant, and the Keyblade, and then I wander into the basement waving my weapon (which occasionally turns floppy like a rubber toy) wherever I want there to be light.

5. I'm Robin, helping Batman on a mission. I get special gloves and boots to prevent electric shock so that I can get through buildings with electrified floors. Batman keeps getting injured, and I have to keep finding places to hide him.

6. I'm Batman, trying to get through the city without being noticed. It's dark, and there are guards everywhere. Most of the time, I just use my grappling beam to climb buildings. In one building, there's a woman sitting on a platform suspended from the ceiling, and assorted swings that I use to reach her. She thinks I have ill intentions and begins to threaten me, so I leave. When I'm outside, I hear gunshots and the woman screaming, but I just keep running away instead of going back to help her.

Dream - Lucid - AP

I was in some sort of cabin, I remember the lighting being warm and dim. I thought I might be pregnant, but I wasn't sure. My cat was pregnant, and for some reason this correlated with me in some way. I looked at an ultrasound picture of my uterus, and saw a small flicker on it. Then, I knew I was pregnant. I knew I needed to quit smoking. I was kind of anxious about being pregnant.

~

I woke up from this dream, rolled over to go back to sleep, and had a brief, vivid hypnagogic hallucination that I was Ryan, and I was working in an auto factory. There were some older men around me. Then I really felt the need to pee, so I snapped out of the hallucination.

~

I was going on vacation with my old friend, Bret. We were going to fly to a different country. When we got there, we were trying to find a hotel. We found one, but it didn't have free Wi-fi, though that wasn't a huge deal. I also remember thinking about having sex with Bret, but the thought was brief, as I'm with Ryan, I'm not attracted to Bret that way, and he's gay.

Then, I remember waking up on a blow-up mattress on the floor of the hotel room. Bret had slept in one of the beds, which he told me was not a very comfortable bed. We went down to the beach. It was a beautiful, sunny day. The ocean was very calm, and the shore was covered in small seashells. I waded in the ocean. The water felt warm and comfortable.

I remember being on a mountain, and seeing two huge dragons. One was a male, and the other a female. They were friendly and meant no harm. The male accidentally exposed himself enough to where the town below could see him, and everyone started to panic.

Then, we were going to try to find another hotel. Bret ended up going back to the airport to go home kind of on a whim. Then, Jeff, a man I don't associate with anymore in waking life, was there instead. I was annoyed at this. Again, the thought of sex came up, but, again, I'm with Ryan, and Jeff is kind of a dick.

Jeff wanted to find a hotel with Wi-fi, so we drove around at night, looking for a hotel. We found one and stopped at it. They had free Wi-fi, but not a continental breakfast, which was a big deal, because I didn't have a lot of money, so I needed as much free food as I could get. I remember being in the hotel, in the lobby. The front desk has a display case of foods and stuff to buy. Jeff was chatting it up with the person tending the desk.

Then, we were back at my house. Jeff was still there. I remember talking to my mom about the trip briefly. I was then in my room, and Jeff had dissappeared, and I couldn't figure out where he went. I looked into my mom's office, and he was there, going through files on her computer. He was looking at patient files for my dad's patients (my dad's a psychiatrist in waking life). I said
"Jeff, get out of here. Get out. What you're doing is rude."
He got up and replied,
"This is my ex, I need to warn people about this.", or something like that. He was referring to the fact that she had been seeing a psychiatrist.
I told him to get out again. He finally left the room.

Then, I went back into my room, and looked out the window. Two tornadoes could be seen in the distance. I said "Oh shit...", and went downstairs, leaving all my stuff up there. I got everyone in the hall closet. Jeff was in the cubby under the stairs, and there was no room for anyone else in there because it was so cluttered. I briefly thought about going upstairs to get my purse and stuff, but quickly dismissed the thought.

After that, I left the closet, and looked outside. The tornadoes had cut a huge path through our back yard. There was a lot of water flowing through one of them, kind of like a creek. I went to get my mom to show her. She stared with wide eyes.

We then went outside to assess the damage. I told my mom I hoped that Mary Katherine's family was ok. We were looking to see if any homes were damaged, but none appeared to be. It was just the huge path that the tornado cut through the yard.

Then, by the ditch behind my house, I saw a tornado forming. I ran back inside, and we were all in the closet again. Jeff and my mom were in the cubby under the stairs this time.

After that, I left the closet again, and the windows of the porch had been blown out, and the porch had been ruined. I saw some sparks flying around part of the porch. I wondered if one of our cats who lives out on the porch was alright.

Then, I went upstairs to my room to get my iPod. I picked up an iPod that was sitting on my bed and scrolled through it. It went to Facebook, and some Facebook pages. It also had an attachment on it that would buckle it to your belt. I then knew it was Jeff's iPod and not mine. I brought it downstairs, but dropped it on the way down. I picked it up, and the screen was cracked. It was very broken. I approached Jeff and told him what had happened, and he looked irritated. I was going to tell him I'd replace it, but I decided not to. I figured that he had enough money to do it himself, since he's such a big business man.

I was playing something on the piano in my family's piano room. It was my wedding day, and I was wearing a strapless wedding gown. I was reading music, and two of the notes kept on clashing. I kept playing them, thinking something must be wrong. Then, my brother said "It's Bethel, just go with it." In the dream, Bethel was the composer of the music.

Then, we ran upstairs, and for some reason, my brother and I were fighting. I grabbed the back of his shirt (like I used to do when we were younger and we'd race to get to the computer), and he was thrown into the wall. I told him if he broke any of my bones before my wedding, I'd be really pissed off.

I am walking through a snowy landscape with some friends. There is my brother,
a boy and his sister. I am not sure what happened first, but eventually I am walking
down snowy road with the guy while my brother is driving a snow mobile with the
girl on the back. After we get a ways down the road, we wonder where the other two
are. We head back and see a blue caution light set up by police. I worry that maybe
somebody has died again ( probably happened earlier in the dream ). I run over to
the part of the road where the snow mobile is. My brother and the girl are fine but
they keep pointing to something on the ground behind the snowmobile. All I see are
these pancakes. I keep looking but thats all I can find. Then the father of the boy and
girl comes over and picks up a little dog. It isn't bloody but the dog's upper jaw bone
is sticking out and half of its lower jaw is in the father's hand. The bone is perfectly
clean. I feel very bad for the dog and the father tries to figure out any way to get the
bone back in place but can't. The dog does not appear to be in pain but I still feel
pity for the poor animal. I stood there for about ten minutes looking at the dog trying
to find something I could do to help, but it just didn't come. The dream ends.

I am in Wildwood NJ and I go into one of the shops. The shop has a bunch of items
that any shop would have, figurines, lanyards, glassware, little trinkets... but they
also have Rosie O'donell T-Shirts. Don't ask me why but I wanted one. I leave the store
without getting anything and later come back hoping they still have them. The layout
of the store is different but the t-shirts are on a rack in the very front. I look at them
but then go on and out a door in the back. I walk out on the beach and it is night-time.
I walk under a huge wooden structure with struts coming down everywhere. A friend
from college is there and we look down and see a huge coin. It is a little smaller than
a man-hole cover. Apparently the coin is worth one dollar. We see two other coins. One
is half the size of the large one and another is about the size of what a real half-dollar
would be. We conclude that they are a half dollar and a quarter dollar. My friend and I
began to decide who gets what and I said I'll take the big one and she can have the
other two. The dream ends.

I am on the Enterprise D from Star Trek Next Generation. I am Picard and there is
a safe in the conference room that is open and has little gummy candies. Somehow
by eating these, they can destroy an entire race but the person who eats it will be
paralyzed. Londo Molari from Babylon 5 wants me to eat it but I want warf to eat
it. I take a red one from the safe, break it in half, and put a piece in my mouth. It
tastes bland with the texture of a large gummy. I spit it back out because I don't want
to be paralyzed. I contemplate it further and the dream ends.

First dream all I can remember is me looking around my house saying "I think I should put my contacts in, I can't see anything..." but I never did put my contacts in.

Next dream I was looking at my bank statement online on my iPod touch and I was wondering why I had less money than when I first looked at it since I didn't spend any money. It showed that 2 withdrawls of $12 came out for "bank fees". I showed my girlfriend and she said "you should probably call them" so I was about to reach for the phone and I said "Wait..." and looked at the date. One of them was a bank fee for February and one for March that came out on the same day, just late for February and early for march. Since my bank does weird crap like this sometimes I just let it slide

Kind of a boring dream...

I am a small boy maybe in middle school. I am in the super market. An old man starts chasing me. I am running away with the help of a woman? I go a long ways to my weird large house. I think I might be Finn (from Adventure Time). I harness the power of animals. Small sheep? Somehow I make it to my house. Then I go back out and run more. Then there is somehow a party on my roof. There are nets on the side of the roof like large hammocks so people don't fall off. They are filled with the small animals.

I am at a sleepover with a few friends. We're watching cartoons and one of them is playing Nintendo. We're all sitting/laying on a bed that's as wide as 3 king size beds all put together with many pillows along the wall. My friend's mom comes in the room and turns off the cartoons, saying “Don't watch TV, that will make your brain go to mush.” I grabbed the remote control and repeatedly pressed the power button, but the TV never came back on.

Okay, last night I hada short dream, but I really want to remember it sooo... yeah.

nonlucid

Jen and Ben (from Skillet) stood facing each other. Ben's face was scruffy as usual, and Jen's hair was just the same too. They spoke to each other.
Jen: Why don't you ever want a girlfriend?
Ben: Because I'd never get to see her.
Jen: Because we're always on the rode?
Ben: Yeah...
Jen leaned on him at this point, her head could hardly rest on his shoulder, so she rested it on his chest instead.
Jen: What about me?
Ben: You? What about yo--
Jen looks up at him: Don't you love me? You'd never have to leave me.
Ben smiles: Yes. I- I do love you, Jen.
Then they kiss each other and smile.

SUPER GREAT DREAM!
Too bad Ben is leaving Skillet

Good morning, everybody.

Dream #1

I was walking through a street in my old neighborhood. I came to a three-way intersection. The left road went past my old elementary school. The right road went past a grocery store.

It was night and dark. There were no streetlights. The sky seemed purple, as if somewhere in the distance there were lights.

There were a good amount of people walking around on the street. Nobody, including me, was acting as if there was no power and light.

I walked along the right road and crossed the street to get to the sidewalk in front of the grocery store. As I did, another man walked behind me, continuing along the sidewalk I had just been on.

The man was on a cell phone. He was bragging really loud to somebody about having arranged things with the people at his work so that he could alternate work between New York and Atlanta.

I knew the man was trying to get my attention and trying to make me feel like he had a better job than I. I tried not to worry about the guy, although I did think that being able to live in one other place as well as New York would be pretty cool. Atlanta seemed pretty far. I thought Boston might be nice.

There was a tree in the middle of the street. It had fallen, but the trunk was still connected to the stump. It didn't seem too wide -- maybe only 33cm or so in diameter. But it was like I was walking below it. It was completely blocking the road. I had to get past it. I pushed against it, but I don't think I actually lifted it or moved it out of the way. I was then past it.

I was on the sidewalk in front of the grocery store. There was a pretty girl somewhere. I may have thought about telling her something about how I live in New York and Boston.

Then I started seeing black butterflies. They floated at about waist height, occasionally coming up to my head, and they flew very slowly. They were about 15cm wide, and in the dark they looked like living shadows.

I walked under the canopy of a scraggly sidewalk tree. There were more black butterflies. They were floating through what seems now like either the suckers of the tree or some kind of barren shrub.

I was shocked by the strange sight of the butterflies. I told myself there was no way these things could be butterflies. I told myself that butterflies didn't fly around in the dark. I thought they were bats. But they flew too slow to be bats.

Eventually I told myself they must be moths. That seemed more reasonable than their being butterflies, although not as mystical. But, still, I told myself, even for moths, these things have such a strange appearance.

Dream #2

I was in an area like a hallway for a smallish performance and rehearsal space. The place felt warm, warmly lit, and nice. The ceilings may have been high up, even though the space wasn't big.

I sat on a stool. I sat before a doorway. The door was the kind that has a split halfway up so you can open the top or bottom half only if you want. The bottom half was closed, and there was a ledge on it, which I was using for a counter.

A pale, white man stood on the other side of the door. Behind him was a room with dimensions like for a performance space, but filled with stuff like for a living room or bedroom. This space also felt warm and nice.

The man told me about some special cocktail he had made. I could see it in my mind's eye. It was very colorful. It had green in it, and possibly yellow, like pineapples. It may have been topped with whipped cream and a cherry.

The man offered to make me a special cocktail. I didn't feel like drinking, so I declined. But the guy seemed really intent on making the cocktail, which he seemed really proud of. So I finally accepted.

Im coming out of the classroom, we just finished our maths lesson. I walk to the hallway and theres some guys from the H class and lots of benches. I stand there talking with T and/or O and Im in HP's way so that she has to go around the benches.
Its almost time for lunch, but we are still going to have social studies lesson. The lesson is not in a classroom its in the hallway and theres just chairs there. Then Im moving some first aid kit to a corner with J and T. T is outside on the roof and I see him through the window. He says that I need to move the kit to the same spot where the kit is outside. The window is a bit dirty and the walls are made from red bricks.
After this the clock is already 11:20 and lunchtime is almost over so I ask T that can I go to eat now. He says yes and J should come with me, but hes somewhere doing something.
Im at the cafeteria and the cooks say that I shouldnt take all types of salad, I should pick only one salad. Anyways the food is bad.

Im in front of our maths classroom with T,S and A. We are sitting on the bench and talking to some 8th graders. The stairway is like inverted so that the end of the stairs is on the left, though it should be on the right.

Im in the classroom sitting on one of the front desks. R asks me to get a brush for him. At first I dont find it because the instructions were poor. Everyones like "Oh cmon cant you find it already??". I then find some brushes and ask are those the brush R wants, but they are not. Then R says its on the top of the shelf. I reach my hand out to the shelf and grab the brush. I take it to R and its some kind of "fishbrush" that I need to clean. I sit to my place and start to clean it from the golden scales.

I also remember that I was talking with N,J and J about some schoolbooks.

I had some dream where i was talking to D about daughters in general. We were basically talking about how we want to be protective but not too protective. There was another event where there was a lot of food and people were throwing it away, and I was trying to stop them and tell them to just donate it to the shelter. And another scene where I was trying to go out, but no one was available.
