non-lucid

Had to get up extra early today to get my grandkids around & gather everything & feed everyone so I told my husband about my dream which was a non-lucid cuz he has a great memory instead of writing a few lines for me to help my recall but I'm exhausted & drawing a blank but I know it wasn't a lucid. Sigh. My own fault.

I'm at a LDing camp which is just about over. I pondering if I should took the advanced LDing camp now, which had been offered to me.

I knew a very friendly cat with reddish/orange fur. I think she lived in a shelter, other cats were around too, and maybe other animals. I can’t remember. Some people around me were trying to do something with cotton balls, some kind of kickstarter project. They were inspired by cat to make red fur from cotton balls. The process was to comb through a cotton ball until it was strands and then dye it red and sell it by the bag. We all thought it was a brilliant idea, although can’t remember what we thought people would want with w bag full of red cotton.

More red: A red-haired guy gave me a ride home. He seemed creepy, in a pushy way. He wanted to come in to my place for some reason, and i think I let him, maybe to go to the toilet or something. Then wanted to stay longer and I told him to leave. I remember he had a weird smile on his face as I basically forced him out of my front door.

I was at my mom’s house (random made-up dream home) My uncle was there and we were talking. I saw a crow, wanted to feed it peanuts. I told my uncle to hold on while I went inside to get some nuts. I grabbed some, and I was holding them up in my hand so I could show the crow that I had some nuts to feed it. My uncle was laughing at me, and he took a nut and said, ‘Here’s how you do it!’ and threw it at the crow. I was angry because I thought he scared the bird and was being rude.

I had a friend– sometimes her hair was red, sometimes she was a blonde. She was a newish friend, and I felt I didn’t trust her completely although we were spending a lot of time together. At one point, I was in the back of a cab, she was on my right and my husband on my left. They seemed to be getting along well. I was considering the fact that I don’t drink anymore, and they both do. I felt that my husband probably thinks this friend is more exciting than me.

I was going to move back in with my mom for some reason, work related I think. My husband was now some guy I had only been dating for about a month. Up until now we both lived in a house we shared with other people. I wasn’t sure this guy even really liked me that much, the relationship was new, and I think the guy had a reputation for dating lots of women before me. This friend was moving in to this house when I left, I was not happy about this. I was trying to have a discussion with this friend about how I felt about her moving in. Friend was polyamorous and acting like I was being unreasonable and prudish. Right before I woke up I was deciding that I just needed to break things off guy because none of this was worth it.

I was in car with my mother— she was driving and we were on freeway. She was driving erratically, and I asked her if she could slow down. She said she drives slow.
I told her i felt afraid, and said I always have dreams with her driving and we wreck. [Good chance to be lucid here, but did not. I think we actually wrecked.]

I was eating a salad from a white cardboard to go box, and I saw what I had thought was black pepper move and realized that they were little bugs. I discreetly chewed the last bite and closed the box so no one would know I had been eating bugs.

I have been starting to remember dreams quite a lot lately, despite no attempt at a dream journal. Heres one dream I literally just had, and will probably never forget.

I remember it starting as I was on the inner part of the field of my old elementary school, walking along with this guy a little older than me. He was tall and lanky, but cute in a weird way, even if he was really awkward. We were flirting it up, walking along as we came up to one the little "cell block" things they had, which was right next to the courtyard and disconnected from he school. I didn't notice it, but the he turned into a she (still cute, thank god i'm bi) and got this stick and decided to use it as a crowbar to take off one of the vents underneath the cell block thing. I knew for a fact I would get into a shit ton of trouble if she was caught and I was around, so I started fast walking away and put my hands up as a cop was running towards me (even if i've never been to anything close to prison, i knew how not to piss off a cop). The cop ran right past me and I saw her getting arrested, rather forcifully actually, but I was in no room to start talking about police brutality. Their was a package she threw in my direction though, it was a small amazon box, and she said it meant a lot to her. I snatched it real quick before the guards noticed it, and went back to my regular shit.

I don't know when this part happened, but I think its safe to assume it was right after the box incident. I was in a classroom with kids ranging from my age (14) to like 17 years old. I knew in the dream this was my new school though, which might be related to the fact that I recently moved from Washington to Michigan in real life. I was laughing to a kid who I guess went to my old school that our language arts teacher looked like a offbrand of our old language arts teacher. We were joking about this shit for awhile. Then I remember, it was end of class or something, I don't know, it was fuzzy. I walked out of the cell block thing, thinking it was still recess (who thought to keep those unlocked) and I noticed their was no one around. I knew I couldnt get back inside, so my only choice was to get the attention of a guard to bring me back inside and hopefully he would believe it was an accident. I walked towards the right part of the building, as I noticed this random couple (i noticed from a mile away their was something off with em) said "Here he is." to something behind them, which I assumed was a guard, and was confirmed as a guard starting jogging towards me. As he got to me, instead of putting me in handcuffs or something, he took this big ass metal bike lock thing and said "You know I could do a lot with this thing, he he." The couple was joking around with him too, and honestly I was starting to get scared for my life. The stupid guard let the bike lock slipped though, and it fell on the womens neck, pinning her to the ground and crushing her neck. I helped get it off, but I knew that I know had my handprints on it, the guard wore gloves, and the man didnt do jackshit. I said "please, please don't blame this on me. I wont tell on you guys" multiple times, and the women said "You have two choices, fucker, either run while everything is quiet and try to escape, or wait to see yourself get a bigger sentence." Stupid panicked me picked the former, my logic was that the judges might favor a guard and a couple over a young inmate and I would probably been in prison for life at that point for attempted murder. I started running, and I looked back and realized that the box was in my direction. I ran back and tried to grab it, but it seems the couple wanted it to, but I finally got a good grip on it, and bolted out of there.

Somehow I made it out with little resistance, and suddenly it was nighttime. I had just escaped and was just in the general area of the prison. I was going through backyards and shit, trying to find a route deeper into somewhere so i could make an easier escape, but in the end my only choice was to get back on the main road. I tried to walk to the side, in the shadier part, but I knew I was going to get fucked. Their was cop cars coming from both directions for some reason, and their was checkpoints everywhere. I decided to stop running, and try to explain my side to the judge. I was tired of running. I couldn't get the box to her/him, which made me really sad. I stepped over this this cliff thing (it was nearly pitch black, could barely see) and noticed their was a beach not that far down. I slid down, and said on a rock. I noticed a few red dots on my legs, but I knew if I didn't resist I wouldn't get shot. I heard some yelling and saw the snipers laughing and dancing. I was sobbing the whole time. I woke up shortly after.

Got to Barcelona where there has been a lot of stormy weather but none transfered to my dreams

D1 - Someone had the idea of raising money by creating a ride. Customers would plumet marrionet style, flipping over and over. She decided when I expressed concern into one freefall drop ending in a flip to the ground level. I felt this would be probably fatal but was most concerned about her state of mind for designing it LOL

D2 - A boat was being stabalised by placing gold bars into it, they were strangely shaped and ornate.
D2 - Staying in a poky flat, I needed to take my hamster to the vet. I felt quite worried for it. Anyway I went out , deposited hamster then went dentist.
On returning I realised I forgotten about hamster.

I appear to be associated with a group that is being hunted down by this large ship. We're out at sea with no land near at sight, so as are little boat is being attack. I tell them one of them that I will be back with in 10 minutes. I use a rope and did some good atheltic moves to clib to the bigger ship. As I get it I realize I have a gun and tell the enemies that I am rich now. I give off the impression that I could take them all out. The leader assumes I have a gun and shows me his. I quickly surrender with my hands in the air saying ok you got me. The leader appears to be chubby with a hat that doesn't look so pirate like.

He then orders his two henchmen to drag be down right to a spot where I notice a camera. They were filming me for who knows why. Suddenly I see he leaves and his two henchmen were not focusing on me. I make a simple run for it which actually works. I soon found other prisoners who wanted to break free as well. I make run for the stairs as they followed me. There was a woman in a blue dress who had notice me trying to escape. I assume she is working for the weird not so pirate like leader. I kept running and soon found myself inside a office building. I could hear her screaming wait as I had to make a U turn to continue running,

I begin stumble on my feet and fall for a brief moment. I could feel her beginning to hold me down as people in the corwd tell her to back off. I am guessing they help me as I was able to move again and continue running in till I notice a window. I didn't care how high it was from the ground. I just wanted to leave. I open the smaller window but realize I am too big to fit through it. I see a larger one right next to it and decide this is the one for me. I go through it and keep my balance, I thought to myself maybe playing Uncharted 4 wasn't such a bad idea. As I continue going down I notice the outside world wasn't so far from me.

I land on the ground and see a house that I recognize as mine atleast in this it is. I go to it and feel this sense of relief as I made it through this ordeal. I close my eyes and find myself waking up. I assume it was all a dream as I get up with this person staring at me. I realize I am outside on the streets, I assume I am dreaming and go inside the near by house beside me. I see a woman sleeping in her bed. I sit there and notice two men who have notice the window of her house is open. I'm sure the yare planninf on breaking in. I go out to the living room as I hear television playing the sound of tekken. Stating that a fight is about to begin. I try my hardest to open the door but the lock seem broken. I then wake up.

Boy, so many dreams again. My recall has never been this good before.

Number one. I was chasing a cop on a bicycle. The cop was in pursuit of a suspect. I saw a sign on the side of the road, saying Highway 7. The bad guy was riding a horse and carriage, the cop and me were on bicycles. The cop dropped his wallet. It was a Pulp Fiction "bad motherfucker" wallet, like mine in real life. I was determined to give the officer his wallet back, so I started chasing him. After a pretty long chase, I caught up to the cop (maybe he had caught his suspect?). I gave him the wallet. He seemed happy. Then he pointed out I had his phone too, somehow. And he was right. I remembered seeing an app on "my" phone I didn't recognize.

After the last dream, I was stuck on a nearby construction site. I don't *how* I was stuck, exactly. Every time I tried to walk out, something happened or something got in the way, blocking my path. At some point I got into a big truck, and thought I had started driving. But then I saw there was another truck in front of me who was doing the steering (it was like my truck was being towed, or was a wagon being pulled by a train), and I wasn't really in control.

Creepy view of a young woman or girl. She looked "plastic", and a tear rolled down her cheek. She did not move. I "knew" or heard a voice saying she was being turned into wood... Even her tear turned to wood before it fell.

I was leading a group of people on their way to find Han Solo. We got into a fight with an unknown enemy. We won the fight, but one of the men insisted they leave their children behind, as it had gotten too dangerous. The kids, girls aged perhaps 10, had fought alongside us wielding big guns, and had actually done quite well. I felt sorry to lose them. Alone, I quickly backtracked a bit to collect some "health packs", but as I picked them up, a turret started shooting me and chipping away at my health. Annoyed, I rejoined the others. I quickly jumped onto a ledge, and realized we had to "bait" the Millennium Falcon. We did this somehow, and the Falcon crashed. We continued, and eventually saw Han and Chewie standing high on top of a ledge/cliff - waiting for us to explain ourselves.

We were "interviewing" Han Solo. About what, I don't know. At some point I made a joking reference to Indiana Jones, but an older Asian man furiously yelled at me that I was not to mentioned other characters of the same actor to a fictional character, as this could cause a "reality collapse". I think I caught a glimpse of such a "collapse". I saw a major city literally collapse - skyscrapers crashing into the ground until all was dust and rubble.

Air battle. I was flying a jet in a dogfight against a bunch of other planes. I saw an invisible jet (it was blurry like the Predator when he's cloaked, and my weapon systems would not lock on to it) but I could still see it with the naked eye. I knew it was a Russian experimental jet. I became fixated on taking it down. Targeting it purely on feeling was hard. I chased it up, using my afterburners to climb higher - but the experimental jet had far more thrust. We reached space, where I lost all thrust (no air), but the Russian kept going and escaped. I got a radio message from command, saying to let the Russian go. The ISS would take care of him from space. I turned around and flew back down into the atmosphere.

In this fragment I caught a short glimpse of NYC from the air. I thought about how far it is from Europe, and how similar/different the climate and plant life are.

I was at a family gathering. My grandpa (on father's side) walked in. I greeted him. He asked me where Kevin (my half-brother) is. I pointed to the other side of the room, where he was standing in plain sight. My grandpa's mind in deteriorating rapidly, so I didn't blame him for not seeing him/not remembering.

I was with a group of people, navigating a strange place. Odd, large architecture, almost resembling ancient Egyptian. There was a section where we had to dive underwater and swim quite a distance. For a moment, the underwater corridors and rooms seemed to go on and on, and I worried I would drown. I saw an opening in the ceiling, kind of hidden away in a corner. I surfaced, and was somehow catapulted out of the water. I found myself in a large room. The ground had "pools" of shallow water in them. There was a group of girls lounging around, really cute Japanese girls. I think they were amused by the way I was launched out of the water. They were nice to me. I looked around, trying to find a way to get underwater. I checked every pool, looking for the one that wasn't shallow. I found it again, and did the most graceful swam dive I could manage. For a moment I worried I'd misjudged the jump and would hit the side of the pool. I didn't. I swam underwater, and suddenly I wasn't under water anymore. Puzzled, I backtracked a bit. Then I saw it: the water surface was vertical... all water on one side, none on the other. At this point things looked a bit "video gamey". The textures of the water surface... well, they looked like textures, not reality. I walked through, back into the water and saw a giant round boulder. I walked into it, and "lost health". At some point I realized my shenanigans had caused me to fall behind my allies, who were now pretty far ahead, and spread out throughout the "level".

I recall a fragment. I was on a tropical island with my family, there was a zombie outbreak and we were fighting with them. Again waking world directly influenced my dream - when sleeping I heard father phoning someone, which resulted in him talking about sharpening knives of a planer when we were beating zombies.

D1: non-lucid: A nightmare in the twilight zone is the best way to describe it. I was in this house & I heard someone. People were popping in & out of existence! They would appear & disappear & then other people who appear & disappear. Most were coming back repeatedly & it was really creepy.

D2: non-lucid: I chained right into this next dream. There were orbs flying around in the sky. A cluster of orbs. Me & other people were chasing them through peoples yards & suddenly government people appeared. They had set a table with all kinds of technological devices.

I was watching a show about UFO's before I went to sleep.

Cyberman
I remember that I was outside during the day and there was a metal robot thing that kind of reminded me of the cybermen from Doctor Who. It was chasing me slowly, I turned to run away and it teleported in front of me. I tried scrambling away and then woke up.

Interstellar
I watched Interstellar for the first time a couple nights ago and it inspired this dream. I was in a spaceship but there were aliens on board, I had to get my suit on so I could open the hatchway to outside and still be able to breathe or something. The area I was in was pretty much a laboratory, and the alien that was chasing me kind of reminded me of a two-legged triceratops, there was also an elephant that started chasing me. I clambered over tables trying to fix my suit on as the creatures were chasing me and then woke up.

My husband and I had a giant house with too much furniture all over. Many couches, beds, tables in random places. It seemed some of this furniture belonged to other people who were at our house for some gathering that day. At the end of the day people began collecting their furniture and leaving. An old acquaintance, ‘O’ was missing her nice large table. I apologized, but she was ok, and she said she could take this other smaller table instead. I said ok. I was anxious to clean up the house because I thought it could look really nice.

I was back in Los Angeles. I've been there on holiday a few months ago. My brother was there was well. For a moment, I thought how weird it was that I could afford this. I have lost my job since then. Anyway, I was playing a console game in my room. My brother was going out to meet someone, and I think have dinner as well. He suggested I come with him. I didn't feel like it. We squabbled over this, he said I was a lazy bum and stuff like that. He eventually left by himself. He told me the street address of the place, something something Avenue. Left alone, I started to feel regret for not coming with him. I considering going after him, but his car was already out of view.

I was in a room with a bunch of other people. The Nazi's were going around and killing people everywhere. I remember seeing a pile of people, stacked up and then shot dead. Blood everywhere. It was gruesome. I hid, hoping the SS guys wouldn't see me. At some point they did find me. I ran outside, bashing past the Nazi's outside and fleeing through the city streets. I reached the "city gates", where I saw a strange monument. I heard the voice of the Führer, saying that if "he did not appreciate his new world, he should leave and never return", or something like that. Clearly referring to me.

I think the next scene was at a gas station (I think) outside the city (continuing the previous dream). I saw two older women, driving a bizarre kind of buggy. They were seated one in front of the other, like on a motorcycle, but almost laying down instead of seated. Weird. They were pretty oddly dressed, too. I almost suspected them of being trannies. The one in the rear had this weird "mutation" coming out of her chest. A small appendage, almost like a tiny arm. She was very self-conscious about this, but we nervously laughed it off. I asked for a ride, and they motioned that I had to sit on the rear one's lap. We drove back to the city. I remember the car having some kind of pole (?) sticking out (straight up) of the vehicle, and struggling to drive through a tunner or door (!). For a moment, I wondered why on Earth I wanted to go back to the city. It was Nazi-infested after all.

A half-dream, half-hallucination right before waking. I saw Nazi's violently forcing people (Mexicans?) into concrete rooms - gas showers.

I saw Jupiter, Mars, and Earth in one shot - obviously not to scale. Only Mars wasn't the barren red planet we know - it looked terraformed. I think I saw a continent on Mars, that looked like the Americas.

More fragments/forgotten dream.

I was lost in a big world. I ended up at some summer camp, and Adriana was with me. She said to me what she said last night. Then I left the camp to find my brother, who had gotten himself the must fucked up mercedes I'd ever seen, it looked like it had been left in a pit full of acid and human waste for 10 years. I told him he was so stupid for getting it and he said he'd fix it up... yeah right. He and devon started playing a game, and I joined them but they quit so I just woke up instead.

Preface:
Bed at 10pm to catch up on sleep! Unfortunately, exercise had me worn out last night. No echinacea or vitamins before bed; I was too tired and I forgot.

DR 1
I am at a university or school event of some sort. I am with a friend, her boyfriend, and a child. Most times, this child appears to be a boy.
My friend and her boyfriend separate for some reason, and I am supposed to go with the boyfriend to get something or find something (papers from the school). I let him do his thing, because there is a small photography gallery showing that we (all of us, mainly the child) have been invited to. The child is very excited to see this, so we are rushing along to get to the room. When I get there, a man is handing out small booklets (prints of the show) for sale. The guy opens the book and its pictures of "cookies". All kinds of elaborately decorated Christmas gingerbread cookies. The one that I most remember is the one that appears to be strangled. Half of his head is coming off. Anyway, the child is so excited and wants to buy one of the books. He/she has given me his wallet, so its in my purse. I go into my purse to get the wallet and he tells me that the book is four dollars. I find four dollars in silver coins and I give it to him to pay for the book. The wallet is a long checkbook type wallet and has a rose pattern (black and pink). When I go to put the wallet back inside my purse. The child gets upset and says that its his/her wallet. At this time I cannot distinguish the sex of the child, because his/her face is so beautiful, dark brown curly hair (big ringlets), fair skin, rosy pursed lips and big brown eyes- a heart shaped face. He/she is so adorable. I say, "I have it right here! You gave it to me, remember? Do you want to hold it?" The child is okay with me holding it. We hang around a bit and then we leave.

As we are leaving, I meet up with my friend's boyfriend again. We receive news that half the world has fallen into the sea. This is huge news, and it seems that the world is going to be over.

Immediately, I become a third person, and I am looking down at the earth from the sky. In satellite view, I can see Spain and France flip over and fold into the water, as if someone has folded a piece of paper. The same happens to Africa. The rest of Europe, gets completely folded into Russia- and then everything goes under the water. I get freaked out and return to first person.

People are crying and there is a lot of commotion. We are oddly calm and begin to make our way out to find the car. We find my friend. She looks kind of upset. I can feel its because her boyfriend and I have been hanging out and we had a good time. She is not happy that she left her boyfriend with me (?). She's not even upset about the earth.
The university/school is huge! Its takes us awhile to get back to the car. I get into the driver's seat. Its a small sedan. The boyfriend gets into the front seat (?), and my friend and the child get into the back. Everything looks that dimly lit color again (golden brown sepia tones), only there are no torches or streetlights. I don't know where I am going but there is a lot of craziness about the earth on the radio. It seems that only the North American continent has survived.


Side notes:

Colors- Mostly the dimly lit orange/gold tones. This is a change from the normal white/grey color scheme.

Child- This child appeared so handsome and beautiful at the same time. This is new for me in a dream; I can usually tell the sex of people in dreams, if not by appearance then by feeling.

Coins- There were lots of quarters in my purse. In the dream, I had many of them in a plastic bag, which I took out to retrieve the coins. That is odd, but I do hate how change rumbles around and gets dirty in purses.

Cookies- These cookies looked alot like the gingerbread cookies that my small nieces and I made last Christmas. They kept putting too much icing and making them look so different, so I started naming them.

Earth-Probably the biggest calamity I have had in a dream lately. I didn't think I was capable of imagining that the world could just fold over into the sea. Interesting bit about Russia.

I was in a haunted house. It was a two storey building, or rather what was left of it after a fire. I was in a room upstairs, wandering around to find any weapons or ways out. Suddenly I heard footsteps coming from downstairs. The stairs were still intact, just slightly damaged. I looked there and saw a charred corpse coming in my direction. Then I turned into a wraith and flied around burnt rooms, looking for my prey. I found someone walking downstairs, it was a woman. She had dark hair and pale complexion. She tried to run away from me, but I was flying quicker. I finally caught her and strangled to death.

Suddenly I found myself in my backyard, it was an evening. I was heading towards place behind barn. I was holding a big pig in my hands. There was a fireplace lit up, but it wasn't my destination. I went there with that pig and started dancing tango with it (and I have to say that the pig wasn't a bad dancer). When I finished, I thought "Ok, I've just danced with a pig. Now what?"

Suddenly someone drove there with a car - it was mother with two of my sisters, they had some bags to which we started taking litter.
