108: 6.2.10; 11:20AM In a Band with Austin. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I dreamed I was in a band, with my friend Austin as the singer. We played a show, which was rather energetic, and afterward I asked Austin what he happened in the last few years, since we hadn't seen each other for some long time beforehand.

107: 6.1.10; 9:00AM Girl Scout Cookies, and Relatives. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I dreamed I was handing out invitations to Julia's birthday party - or at least, I tried to, but couldn't find the invitations. I looked in my bedroom and found a couple boxes of Girl Scout cookies. Even though they were already open and I suspected they'd been there a long while, I grabbed a couple and ate them. Then, a couple spiders made their appearance among the cookies. As you can imagine, I said, "Oh my God."

The dream transitioned and continued to be around my house, this time watching a bus roll up with a lot of relatives I didn't recognize inside.

106: 5.30.10; 7:00AM Part 1: A Humourous Encounter with an Ex. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had a humourous non-lucid in which I was back in middle school. While there I went in search of my old locker, remembering my combination to be 13-49-15. I found the locker, and discovered that my ex-girlfriend Krystee was nearby and had noticed me. I acted civil toward her, unsure of what to expect, and thought of introducing Julia to her. Looking around, I found there were several people around me I didn't recognize, then I spotted Julia.

Taking her by the arm, I brought her over and introduced her to Krystee. I looked to Krystee and told her, "This is who I lost my virginity to," and she went insane. I don't recall if she started beating on me or if someone held her back, but I remember her screaming at me hysterically.

I found that to be pretty funny.

105: 5.28.10; 7:25AM Part 1: Protest the Hero Learning Session. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Among other dreams and fragments, I recall dreaming of learning a Protest the Hero song riff, while watching the band learn it as well.

26.05.2010

104: 5.26.10, 10:05AM Part 2: Rody from Protest the Hero Writes Lyrics. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had a brief dream in which Rody from Protest the Hero was writing lyrics and was getting suggestions from someone. I simply observed him writing and lent no help to the writing process.

25.05.2010

103: 5.25.10; 9:00AM The Au Aunina. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I recall discovering pictures or another form of documentation on an old French ship, the "Au Aunina," pronounced as written. There was more to this dream, unrelated to the ship, but I don't recall those details.

24.05.2010

102: 5.24.10; 9:00AM Meeting @danzr4ever. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I dreamed I met @danzr4ever in real life, and was talking with her about writing, telling her I rarely if ever have multiple drafts before I get to the finished piece. She wore a yellow dress and looked much like Penelope Garcia from the show Criminal Minds.

101: 5.23.10; 11:00AM Announcement of Donation. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was driving dad's truck out on some backroads at night, and after driving along the same road for a very long while, I turned left at an intersection in the hopes of finding something interesting. I wound up at a kind of church, way out in the middle of nowhere. I parked and got out, finding a lot of people standing around, waiting for a man in the distance to announce something from the podium he was standing behind. While the kids (and a few adults) talked and made a lot of noise, I watched the man and waited for him to speak, knowing he was going to announce that I'd made a massive donation toward whatever cause they stood for. When he began speaking, everyone continued to talk, and continued to do so until he was finished.

I figured that they'd heard the announcement through their uninterrupted conversations, so I advised one of them to get some rest, as they had school the next day, and it was around 4AM when the announcer had finished.

100: 5.21.10; 11:18AM Part 2: Gold Dust. (DEILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had a DEILD where I was on my computer on my bed, and was intently watching gold-coloured dust of some magical origin swirling around my laptop screen. I was concerned about not being completely "in" the dream, even though I was indeed lucid, which led me to choose not to attempt the Task of the Year like I'd wanted to. Thus, my time in the dream was spent doing nothing more than watching that gold dust floating about before the dream faded.

100: 5.21.10; 8:55AM Part 1: Running Down Bleachers + 6twitter Virus. (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I dreamed I'd left my Sociology class early, and as a result had failed it. (It's an online course so I don't know how I could've left it, but I somehow managed to do so.) When I found I'd failed the class, I found myself in my high school gym, running down the bleachers. The bleachers were far too steep for me to be running down, and I wound up jumping off of them due to my momentum, about 10 feet from the floor. I braced for impact, and doing so made me gradually lucid. This immediately slowed my descent. The dream transitioned and I found my computer to have a virus. I found two files named "twitter" and "6twitter" that were irremovable, placed by the virus.

99: 5.20.10; 8:55AM Racing Older Cars + Arcade Game. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I dreamed that I was in a really nice car of an older model, and was racing it down an incredibly packed and busy street in a city I didn't recognize. I saw other hot cars racing alongside me, so I kept up with them to see who was driving them - but never got to see their faces.

The dream transitioned and I was at Paul's house, his mom setting up an old arcade game cabinet called "DJ Pookster," which I found to be very funny. Julia was there with me, and we all talked and reconnected.

98: 5.18.10; 12:15PM Part 6: Clyde's Art on Public Display. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was outside the local mall with my little sister Emily when she handed a piece of folded paper I'd sworn I'd seen before in a dream. I tried to chase her down to tell her so, but found a couple of men arguing, which I figured was a welcome opportunity to intervene and put an end to the argument. I found a giant coloured drawing of a flying bird hanging from the side of a building, and when I approached it I identified it as one of my own works.

98: 5.18.10; 10:30AM Part 4: Julia's Letter + Out to Dinner with my Dad. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I dreamed of getting an especially lengthy letter from Julia while in a kind of classroom setting, but wasn't able to read it there.

The dream transitioned and I was helping two girls open their van door - come to find out, the lock/unlock switch was partially locked, which was the cause of their problems.

The dream transitioned again and I was out to dinner with my dad, and saw my high school history teacher Mr. Shahin there.

98: 5.18.10; 10:30AM Part 3: Steve Vai Shows His Prowess. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

A short dream in which I watched Steve Vai playing his guitar in my music room, showing that he could play two different lines of music at once: he did left-hand pull-offs on the high-e string while wildly tremolo picking the open low-E string.

98: 5.18.10; 8:21AM Part 1: Without a Trace. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was hanging out with a few girls I recognized, one of which being an ex-girlfriend of mine. We walked through a parking lot toward a movie theater, and she passed out cold on the pavement, in the line of on-coming cars. One of the other girls stopped the cars while I picked up my ex. We rushed to the theater and everyone but me and my ex, still passed out, had disappeared. I asked an attendant for assistance, but she said I should go next door for a phone and to get to the hospital.

A little traveling around outside, still carrying my ex, told me the entire area was desolate, and after exploring a few alleys and coming out of one at the side of a freeway, I realized I should use my cell phone to call an ambulance.

I debated if I should call an ambulance or try to find a hospital, as it would take time for them to arrive at my location and I didn't know any nearby addresses to give them a reference point to find me. Julia called while I was thinking, so I explained to her what was going on. By the time I got off the phone, which wasn't more than a minute's time, my ex was missing, without a trace.

Later in the dream, I heard a radio station saying she was arrested for a traffic-related offense, which I suspected had to do with passing out in front of those cars back in the parking lot.

At one point earlier in the dream, I had passed by a pawn shop with the group of girls plus my ex, and saw some dark-cyan/teal shirts on display that I knew were clothes Julia had left behind/sold some while ago, and it made me miss her to see them.
