Non-Lucid Dreams
I saw my dream in different perspectives, one of me going for a job interview for... something. One of two employees discussing how hard it is to get a job with the interviewer. I was given a stack of forms to fill which I don't remember filling. It took forever. I also had the perspecrive of someone else who came to the interview. I waited at the office to be accepted to my job but I woke up first.
Vague fragment about looking out window and a man is sleeping on the roof.

This was almost a nightmare. In one part, Homer Simpson had to crawl through a tube stretching across the ocean to get to the Futurama universe. After that fragment, It cut to a sixteen year old girl with black hair and a black dress visiting a medicine shop. She asked for some medicine meant to make her smaller. She did this every day and as every day passed, she appeared to be younger and younger with a higher pitched voice every time. On the third day, she looked ten years younger. That day, she took a different treatment. Instead of the usual srynge into the arm, she got it sprayed all over her body. When she returned, she appeared to be between the ages of 5 months old to one year old. After that, she was probably the size of a Game Cube disk. By this point her voice was made of unintelligable high pitched scratches. She was then taken to a small living room like compartment where everyone else who did this was forced to live. I remember that one of them was trying to scare another one. It might have worked, but I don't remember that well. I then woke up.

Another crappy recall night. I wasn't feeling well, so I went to sleep at 9PM and woke at midnight lol. Then I crashed again 6:43AM and woke at noon... but it was too cold to get out of bed so I slept for another hour. Then I talked to hubby and lost the dreams I had managed to hold on to. Except one. I dreamed I had a baby girl but I forgot about her for 4 days and she was in the car. I was terrified that she was dead, but when I opened the door, she had the sleepiest, sweetest, happiest smile. My ex-hubby was the father and I was living with my grams. That's it. I know I also dreamed of food and clones (thanks to binging Orphan Black) and cats, but I've lost the specifics. Fitbit info: 6:43AM- 12:01PM (it never gets my wake up right). 5 times restless for total of 1hour 16 minutes. Sleep equivalence of 4 hours 2 minutes. I kept waking in pain. My shoulder was subluxing as was a hip. My nose stopped up every time I laid down. Perhaps it's time to start considering a real bed. I started sleeping on a desk because it was the only thing that kept my back from hurting. Now my back is starting to hurt all the time but so is everything else lol
8/1/16 Dream 1: I am in the car going to a football game with my family Dream 2: At the cricket with a bunch of people, find a diary book as a present, five i back to whoever had lost it Dream 3: In a castle like hogwarts, invisibility cloak, almost getting found, play basketball after, my opponent cheats, then discus politics Dream 4: I was in a bookshop, see a lot of classics, a nietzsche book and a chinese classic.
This was from my dream journal notes from the night of 1/05-1/06. Unfortunately I did not remember any dreams from last night. Even though I got a good amount of sleep, the quality was poor and I woke up a lot. Dream 1: I was riding an Evolution ride, with a bunch of people. This included my tulpa, Tess, and an African American gentleman. I don't remember who else was there, but I remember many of the seats were filled. The difference was that we were inside, with a floor beneath us, so it wasn't as scary as the one I rode in the waking world a few years ago. Anyway, after a while it started going higher, and we realized that it was actually on the inside of a sky tower. So cool So we were actually riding a ride inside of another ride. Some weren't too happy about this, but I was excited. We reached the top of the tower, and then our cabin containing the Evolution dropped and free fell, which took me off guard. I wasn't expecting that at all! After the ride finished, I got off and I found my brother and sister waiting for me by the exit. I'm not sure if they rode the ride too or not. There was an exit sign that said to exit through certain shapes (there were differently-shaped holes in the fence). I found a random hole in the fence and exited the ride, and then the dream faded. Dream 2: False awakening! It was a Sunday morning. I was lying in bed, sort of waking up, but it was still like 6 AM so I decided to go back to sleep. I was looking for something in my bag. I found a thumbtack in there for some reason, and I immediately started having OCD fears about poking myself in the eye with it. I remember finding it weird because prior to that point, my OCD hadn't bothered me with that. But it wasn't quite enough to make me realize that I was dreaming. I got very close, though. Then I accidentally turned a kids' meal toy -- a puffball -- into a purple-black color, and it yelled out something. So now we have talking toys. Then my brother responded to the toy and then he woke up. (?) Oh, right! We BOTH woke up at an apartment in college, but we were roommates (not true in the waking world). Then he said "Oh no it's like 9:39!" and apparently we had church at 11 and ran the risk of being late. I freaked out for some reason, even though that should have been sufficient time to get ready, and then I woke up. Dream 3: Okay, I don't actually have any personal recollection of this one, but hey, it's in my dream journal. I was working at an office. There were a lot of people. Including an African American guy. (Same as before, maybe? I don't know why my brain keeps brining that to mind, of all things). Someone asked "Will you take the plates?" so maybe I went to a restaurant? I don't remember. Dreams from 1/06-1/07: I had already packed my DJ for college, so I had to type these into my phone, and boy is that annoying when you're half asleep! Dream 1: I was chased by some "sketchy people". One of them had an accent. I nimbly jumped away. Dream 2: I was on a boat, and it was rocking quite a bit in the water. I talked to a friend of mine that I haven't seen in forever. Dream 3: I was at a zoo. I can't remember which one. I was trying to talk to a lady there (an employee), but she was not interested in interacting with me or anyone else there. There was a panda that had been transferred from the Santa Barbara zoo. There were some little kids who I thought were annoying who wanted to watch a movie. Just a disclaimer: IRL, I actually don't find little kids to be annoying at all. I think they're cool. But we have different opinions in our dreams, I guess? :O This is the part where I became lucid. This is the gist of what I said: Within a dream, I was walking fully clothed in a river with many other people. There was an attraction of some sort. Might have been the river itself. Then, a typo reads "Loodpskarr mentioned case which I forget. My phone amen skethblkm are sodden." I have no idea what I actually meant by that, but I think I must have gotten my phone soaked in the river. OH! It was a Samsung! That's how I realized that I was dreaming! I talked to my aunt, who just randomly happened to be there, and told her that I thought I was dreaming, since I don't use Android phones IRL. I'm an iOS kind of guy. And then I woke up. :/ No time to do anything cool! D: After only 20 minutes, I had another dream. I was taking a Spanish class, and could do it but I was rusty. However I was confident that I could improve with time.
I was in my house. I entered parent's bedroom for some reason and saw my father in chains as if he was locked in a dungeon. The chains had control over him, making him aggressive. I immediately rushed to free him, breaking the chains. There were three chains and with breaking each one of them, a fingernail from my father's finger was torn. I finally managed to free him. Then I found myself in school, just before an exam starts. Curiously my father was taking an exam too, though it was different. I can't recall much from my exam sheets, but I remember father asking me about some other countries and details about them, even stuff like coal mines.
7/1/17 Dream 1: I was playing board games and some custom books and things like that with some cousins at a party Dream 2: I was at the shopping centre, buying some alcohol and food from the supermarket Dream 3: I was part of an army and the general was using a clay model of me for some purpose
I was at a slayer concert with my friend and everyone else in his family. (I am not usually into slayer in real life). After a song played, my friend's mom said "we shouldn't be at a slayer concert for christmas! We should enjoy christmas with a fun zombie outbreak game!" I agreed with her statement. Suddenly, it wasn't a game. Everyone around us became a zombie except for the people I knew. After that, we headed to the house, where everyone was starting to become zombified. Me and my friend were defenseless, although my friend did have a stick, but what would that help with? Anyways, after that, we disguised ourselves as zombies and pretended to play the piano to a slayer song. The way the song we were pretending to play to was being played was strange. It was on a vertical record player and the record was half broken, but seemed to work anyway. The record sounded like South of Heaven possibly. Finally, we were noticed. "THEY'RE NOT ZOMBIES!!!" a zombie from below us screamed. After that they rushed right into the house. Eventually, everyone but me was a zombie, but before my friend became a zombie, I asked him if he knew where a gun was. He pointed to the right. In his finger's direction was what appeared to be a pistol wrapped in two layers of wrapping paper. I was pacing around so that I couldn't get hit and once I finally got to it, I discovered that it was a revolver that ran on clips. I then proceded to shoot my zombified family before realizing that that maybe isn't the best idea because I could possibly find an antidote. Before that, I ran out of ammo in the clip I was using, so I used my friend's clip. Eventually, everyone turned back into a human and one of the people I knew said "ok, let's stop this." My friend then got mad at me because I used his clip. He said that it was supposed to be his present because he wanted to go out by the lake and do target practice. I then woke up. There was also a zombie leader somewhere in there, but I don't know where to put that in the story besides after.

I actually took an entire Cyproheptadine last night so I COULD sleep. Hubby didn't want me up early, the kids had nothing for me to do, so I was going to sleep and attempt the ToTM. I failed miserably lol. I barely recall any dreams at all thanks to my bird squawking me awake and my dog pacing outside my door. I remember a stress dream about my daughter Destinee. She had a job somewhere but was bugging out early because the place was under repairs. I told her to get permission first and we argued. I then lectured and ranted about responsibility and not blowing the chance. Food was part of that dream too. I was going through the drive-through but I angled the car wrong. I still got the order (which I don't recall). I worried about not having enough money. Paula added a diet soda and plain tea and I worried about going over budget. And now I just got off the phone with hubby so my recall has even further deteriorated. I had my standard zombie and base building dream. The horde was attacking early and I wasn't prepared. I wanted to take a wrench to the AC unit outside before they destroyed it. Lumberjacks came up from the lower floor and almost killed me but I escaped out the window and up a hill. Then a pack of dogs attacked and almost killed me. And just like the video game, I took time to skin them even though the horde was feet away Okay... my Fitbit info: I turned on sleeping at 3:17AM. I woke up at 2:32PM I was restless 14 times for a total of 1 hour and 45 minutes so I got the equivalent of 9 1/2 hours worth of sleep.
I remember looking at a small white rose bush. I It has no pollen.

Subtraction I'm non lucid in a hall and observing a few rooms where I see my old best friend and someone else raising their hands while laying down. "Why are you all raising your hands?" I ask confused. A dc than comes by and walks me to a living room where a man approaches me and asks me if I'm ready to see the results of my test. I say yes and he hands me a paper with math problems that has a 30% circled on it. He than walks me to a classroom where he sits with me and tells me that its important to pay attention to the small parts so you can complete the problem as a whole. The problem he showed me looked like it was algebra though and looked something like (8X-2) and something else. Criminally Despicable I was non lucid in a classroom, sitting behind a desk. I had finished writing my two page essay and was ready to hand it in. However, the teacher refused to take it. She was also a sassy 12 year old girl who reminded me of the main character from the Disney show "Ant Farm". she wanted the papers to be finalized so I hurriedly tried to rewrite it on a clean sheet while she was talking and cracking jokes but than students started getting up and leaving. I begged her to wait but she wasn't willing to so I just decided to finish it up during the weekend. I left the class and ended up in a lunchroom. I took note at how vivid the scenery was than thought about where I should sit. I couldn't think about it in time though and lunch was now over. The lunchroom slowly changed into a classroom setting where students were pushing up their desks to make a circle. As I was about to walk out I pondered whether it was period 4,5 or 6. That's when a girl with black hair and purple highlights got my attention. She wanted to know what was going on. I said it was the start to another period and to not worry about it. I than tapped her on the hand and said goodbye. As I was walking through the halls I felt embarrassed by the way I tapped her hand than said goodbye. "Why did I do that?"I asked myself. I than shook that thought and looked around thinking where my class might be. I observed the walls, doors and people to try and remember my class. Oddly enough it reminded me of a school dream setting I had before but it did not trigger lucidity for me. I walked near the stairs than entered a room with escalators placed in unsafe spots. I walked down, went around and jumped over another as if they were obstacles so that I could get to the side. But I stopped and watched as a girl tried to slide down one . The teacher watched her slide down so I quickly shouted that it was probably broken. Her feet began to be crushed by it so I and the teacher helped pull her out. The teacher began to complain that she knew it was unsafe. I just looked at her baffled and asked her why she let the student slide down if she knew it was broken. She did not answer that question though and walked the girl, I and another girl near a wall where there was an office window. There she took a phone and began complaining to her boss about the situation. I looked to the girl's feet and she had a bag on it that was holding in her blood. This made me cringe from the thought about how it could have easily been avoided. After waiting there a bit the room and dream characters changed. We were now in a orange cavern as a 5'0 short dc guy was trying to get the English department on the phone. A lady answered but she wasn't responding well to him so I decided to take the call. "Is this the English department?" I asked while holding the now amber colored cell phone. "I don't...I don't understand"she replied back. "Were trying to call the English department. Is this the English department? Yes or No?" I asked her seriously now. "No...Wrong number"she said as if she was really confused. I said okay than hanged up. That's when I noticed the cavern had an opening now and in the distance I could see a sunny desert. "They are gonna find us..."I heard the guy say. I looked into the distance having a feeling that I should have called my dad. So that if I die trying to get away at least he would know what happened to me. However, I ended up not calling him. The guy than shouted that they were coming and we dispersed. As I ran I saw Batman and Robin running into the park. The guy with me before mentioned that they were running to the burning hot sun which would slow them down. He said it in a narrator tone though.I became lucid now thinking to outsmart the dream characters by going my own way.I flew until I saw a museum that reminded me of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. After flying towards it the guy dc mentioned that it was a good idea to go into the museum to cool down. I knew he would follow me so I tried picking up the pace but I wanted to see what kind of objects the dream would come up with. There was a cute mouse/bunny purse or doll that got my attention. It was white with a light yellow and light blue shirt and pocket holder. "Isn't this cute?"I asked a little girl dc next to me. She nodded than I ran straight to the bathroom after noticing the criminal presence behind me. I ran into the mens room and looked under the stalls to see that the dcs were all black suited men."This isn't good"I thought than jumped to go into the wall but a few guys came in and started spraying me with a liquid. After that the guy from before pulled me back and changed my actions so that I beat up the people chasing me as he narrated that I was into cute things but a feisty woman at heart that wasn't going to let anyone mess with me. He than tried feeling me up but i pushed him away.I also looked slightly cartoon and totally different. I was white with red lipstick with a light blue cap, casual clothes and had light brown and puffy short hair. What's In Dawn's Shopping Basket? I was non lucid in a unknown house and was about to play yu gi oh cards with my younger brother. I picked up from the deck and put it in my hand. It was a sword card for offense. I than looked at my hand and took out a ball of light card and put it in defense position. I asked my brother if it was okay to put it with the sword in offense. My brother was pleasantly surprised by my move. Yugi's voice than appeared and light flashed us until it consumed everything. The next thing I recall is i'm moving my birds to a different room angrily after someone mops the rooms carelessly forgetting my birds were present. After taking them to a safe room I notice unnecessary materials inside my parakeet's cage. I quickly pulled out crayons and markers from their cage as a guy with black spiky hair and glasses watched me from behind. I'm complaining in front of him than notice its a dream."Wait a minute...I don't have to do this even though I really want to and care about my birds."I say out loud after realizing its a dream. I watch the parakeets disappear than look to him. "Why not?"he asks in a nonchalant manner."Because i'm dreaming" I say than get up and walk away from him. As I walk around I notice Dawn is present along with some other faint looking dream characters. I look into a plastic bin curiously and find a yellow/gray glove. It oddly feels familiar. I than try going up to Dawn but 4 of his friends grab me and hold me up while swaying me side to side. Its slightly fun but I'm also annoyed. The setting changes into a supermarket now and i'm contemplating trying the cereal. But the friends take me to Dawn who is on a huge line. I look in his basket and see what looks like a clear bag of cheetos chips and plantains. "Don't tell me your buying just that? You should get something more healthy"I tell him teasingly. He tells me its not that big of a deal than his friends drop me in his basket. I look closely and the cheetos chips change to baby carrots while the plantains open up and become watermelons. I lick the watermelon even though its piled with black seeds. "This is so good"I say amazed by the taste. It kind of tasted like watermelon candy though. Notes: It felt kind of disheartening to see my birds disappear in the dream after I was so determined to help them. But at least it serves as a dream sign now. (I do not own pic)

It is a very cold day in Texas. I am at a park, hiking with a group of people. We run into my old pastor who is diving into a crystal-clear lake to retrieve a ball. When he comes out of the lake with the ball he tells us what we already know: the water is freezing. I then translocate to my office, where I'm being accused of doing cocaine by some woman who is interviewing me. I admit to doing other things in the office during the interrogation, but never coke. The woman keeps asking me different questions, but I am still waiting for the specific question about the coke. When it doesn't come, I storm out of the office. As I walk outside, I see two buildings separated by a walkway. A man bumps into me on the walkway and asks where a certain office is located in the plaza. He is late for an appointment, but I cannot help him for I myself am lost and confused (the outside of my office building looks nothing like this in WL). And all I can tell him is, "I don't know, sir. It's a crap shoot." I know I need to record this occurrence, but I can't seem to find my DJ (a missed dream sign). Fade out I am now with my childhood neighbor, Meghan and her deceased brother, Rob. Rob is sitting on a sofa and petting a little dog who keeps pestering him. Rob's face is grotesquely disfigured with advanced stages of decomposition. I miss this obvious dream sign and translocate to another scenario where I am suddenly in an old truck -- a 1983 Ford or Chevy model. The truck belongs to Eric, my business partner. I am in an underground parking lot trying to back out of a space. I am blocked in and stuck (another missed dream sign). Up ahead, a black man is also trying to back out of a space but he is partially blocked in by a large motionless bus. He reaches out the window and pushes the bus. The bus topples over and a big fight ensues. People start climbing out of the bus and angry motorists start getting out of their cars. Some of them have knives, others have huge fork-like weapons. People yell and scream as they stab each other in the head and neck. I see massive amounts of blood spurting into the air and flowing on the ground as I sit and watch from inside my truck. Fade out Now I am at Eric's house, and he is offended with me because I stormed out of the office earlier (see first fragment). He feels I've betrayed him. His mother is there, and she is grabbing me and trying to pull me close to her. I am trying to write something while she does this. She is not wearing panties and I can see and smell her hairy, unclean genitalia. I look at Eric and notice his hair is different; it is short and neat, as though he just walked out of a barbershop. His mother is still clutching me. I am wearing only a tee shirt and boxers (yet another missed dream sign) and I am embarrassed that his mother and I are acting like this. I turn to Eric and give him a sheepish look, as if to say, "I am sorry she is grabbing me like this. It's not my fault." He turns to his mother and barks, "Dee! Stop it!" (Dee is not her name in WL), and she immediately stops. He gives her a stern look and then turns back to me. He asks me what I'm doing, and I tell him I'm very busy writing something. I show him the notepad, but notice with alarm that it's just a blank page. Again, I sense embarrassment. Eric gets distracted, and suddenly his mother is back on me again, this time with her genitalia cleanly shaven and freshly-scented. Eric's dad appears (her ex-husband) and he saves me from her by calling, "Dee!" He is wearing a neatly-pressed suit and tie. She goes to him, and I notice she is wearing jeans now. He puts her over his lap and begins spanking her. As he spanks her, I can't help but notice how well her jeans fit. I decide she is not as overweight as I once thought she was. Dreamt 12/19/2016

7-Jan-2017 - ND#2: Office - WILD#1: Ride dragon, destroy castle - WILD#2: Assault the black fortress, life a boy's life ND#1: Forgotten ND#2: I am at the office (!!!), close to F office, which is crowded; M, D, more people. We've just finished discussing something, I ask if I can move on, they ask me to stay, I may help them with some Excel formula. Ok. I take this break to focus on my surrounding, the office is really too crowded. I wonder if this could be a dream, but I wake up. WBTB/WILD#1: (7:30AM, est. ~20min) I start from previous ND, pretend I fully realize it's a dream, walk down the corridor, out of the main door, then I open lift doors, it's dark, I look up and see someone looking down, then I jump down. A lift comes up from below, I flatten against the wall. I open the doors. Poor recall here. I reach a castle, I'm in a big room, there are people walking by. I conjure a dragon close to me, a small one appears, I model it to my liking with my hands, adding horns to its side and flattening its top, now its top looks like an Ankylosaurus. Then I jump on its back and ride it. I fly it out of the castle (out of the window ?) I fly above some green landscape; I notice the side horns are kinda hurting my legs. I reach another castle. It's big, rectangular-ish, built with dark stone, with massive walls, and a high crenellated tower. The dragon attacks it with fireballs, some sections of the castle crumble down. The castle's occupants fire back with shotguns, cannons, fire and frost. I assume it's going to take too much time to destroy it, I have an idea. We land in a flat stone bricks area, I increase the dragon size to make it more powerful; it becomes very big. I take a candy/gum out of my pocket, put it in my mouth, and I increase in size too, matching the dragon so I can still ride it. I also summon DHL Megawoman, thinking that she fits our size well and maybe later we can have some fun together However, this doesn't happen, as I lose track of her almost immediately Then, as a giant dragon and rider, we continue the assault; I also shoot fireballs against the castle. Now our fireballs are big, and each one destroys a big section of walls and towers. After some fireballs, the castle crubmles down. We descend on the smoking ruins, return to normal size; I am looking for something useful among the ruins, however I do not find anything. Dream ends. My body feels slightly uncomfortable, I feel a yawn coming in my body, I move to my left side and keep sleeping. WILD#2: (~7:50AM, est. 15min) I am standing looking diagonally on a road, to my left, beyond the road, just a dark sky and nothing. On my close right, on the border of the road, some plants from PvsZ: coconuts, peashooters. Further right, pointy black rocks. I turn right, and those rocks climb up on a sharp black mountain. On top of it, a black tower. I sense evil in it. I imagine it could be the HQ of some Dream Villain, and I want to clear it I climb among sharp rocks, it's kinda heavy and I think about a shortcut. I stop in a flat clearing and conjure a dragon. I ride on its back and we fly upwards. Looking down I see a sea of sharp black rocks, like lavic basalt (I live close to a volcano, so it's a pretty common sight here) We reach an entrance, I get in. I walk in corridors and halls, a couple of small monsters appear and I slice them with my sword After some more corridor turns, to my right there is an open door; inside, a black family, very sad mother and father, a boy unconscious laying in bed. I enter, ask them and learn the boy is very sick and could die soon. I have to help. I ask the boy where he's hurting, he whispers chest; I open his shirt, conjure some white light in both my hands and put my hands close to his chest. While I do this, more image cross my mind. I wonder if this could be a projection of some real boy really approaching his death, and I am really pushing him back to life. This though feels me with awe and I shiver a lot. Then I return to the dream room, the boy looks better. I ask the family where they live, they say Washington. Time to chase evil again; I know they are responsible also for this boy's sickness. I walk in the black fortress again. I find a long corridor; it's actually a roofed walkway suspended over a black rock chasm, with windows. At the end of the corridor the black tower where I know the enemy is. I walk in this corridor, however when I do that, the other end gets farther away from me. I think that this happens sometimes in dreams, even if not to me. I walk some more, almost a run, but the same happens again, the other end becomes more distant. I think about a solution. I again grow in size, and walk on top of the roof; after few steps, I reach the tower; I shrink to normal size. The enemy comes out. He's hooded, tall and slender, stays 50 meters away from me. I sense much power in him. He attacks me with some red rays, I avoid a few, but one hits me in the middle of my chest, and I fall to the ground. While getting up, I conjure some defense, in the form of PvsZ plants, like at the beginning of the LD: coconuts and peashooters. From behind this protection I draw my bow, aim, the sight gets zoomed, and I see his head: it's a skull. I shoot my arrow at his neck. Then I conjure the (now) usual dragon, and while the enemy is getting up, we both launch fireballs to him, he goes up in flames. I get near him, draw my sword and with both hands I impale him at his chest and raise him up in the air; I approach a window and launch him on the rocks below. No more recall for this part. <JUMP> I am in a wide road. A big white truck crosses it from my left to right. I look at the environment around me, and recognize it as the main customs between two EU countries, a place I know very well I fly up, above the road, find the town, the houses, the small main street, then turn right and find the are I lived in. I descend, there is snow. I approach the building I lived in, get in front of the entrance. Dream ends, I wake up.
Non-Lucid: I keep having the same kind of dreams. I see things, ppl & events happening that are just out of the ordinary but other ppl can't see them. I saw ppl jumping off of a cliff like place but they would float down but others don't see them. It's a common theme. But when my husband is in these dreams he knows exactly what I'm talking about & he sees the same things. It's like we are a team. I'm in a really good place in my life right now after taking some time for my family. I feel good, I'm emotionally good & now my husband went back to work after his vacation. I'm sad he is going back but I'm sad "for him" not because of it. He just turned 55 this week & his 35 yrs at his job has made him sad. It bothers him that he feels enslaved of sorts to the system. Where normally a person would be proud that they had a steady job that long, he doesn't feel that way. I can't figure how all of this applies to my dreams.
