non-lucid

non-dream dream lucid

Would be the perfect WBTB actually.

Nonetheless I do remember a dream, just not with too much detail.

-------
I am in a store, running around.
A DC is with me as well, telling me what to do.
I remember walking out of the store and it's during night, but the parking lot is well lit by the lights?

I got on a school bus and quickly took my seat. The bus continue to move, there was a person three seats behind me. We began talking about future accomplishments and how to go about them. Then we discuss about smoking and I ask him why was he interested since he knew it would only end up killing him. He said didn't mind the harmful effects. A kid one seat beside me was looking at me with disgust. I don't hate people smoke, I just don't see the point I said. That's when the bus stop and both of the kids I were talking to left. Then another kid sat next to me and ask me what are good ways to fall asleep faster? He proclaimed that he wanted to take a quick nap before his stop arrives. I began to tell him to close his eyes and to think about any question that can keep him guessing while also lying completely down. He ask me can he move while being in this process. I told him yes, but try not to move much. He smiled, and not long he fell asleep. The bus has stop, it was my time to leave. The bus driver got up and gave me a handshake, telling me he heard some great things in school about me. I thought he was joking because I recalled before in this dream that I had got in trouble. I pat him on the back and left. When I got off I was instantly inside my father room. I notice this and began wondering if this is a dream? I knew something was wrong because usually I would have t walk a long way to get to the house. I look at my fingers and realize they are bleeding with precise cuts on the very tip of them. That's not right, when has this ever happen? I quickly took off the short sleeve button shirt as I never recalled having it. But when I did take the shirt off my arms came off as well. That's when I lost the lucidity and began smashing my head against the wall for some reason. I soon woke up. Lucidity Time: 8 seconds

non-dream dream lucid

Stayed up a long time again due to Desert Bus for Hope. (Damn they have a nice stream layout this year and I've seen some awesome stream layouts.)

I started up my WBTB clock (goes off 4 hours after its started up regardless of when its started up) and went to sleep.

Woke up once, 2 hours before the clock, and immediately went back to sleep, woke up again 4 mins before the alarm and closed it.

I then practiced SSILD cycles, and went back to sleep.

----
I recall jumping in between falling shipping containers. I then recall gliding down a curved rail that almost looks like a spring.
I am then on a menu where OverTheGun is talking about saving the birds or something like that.
I am looking through a container with a glass window.

Eventually I'm in my back yard, the game having ended. It's very similar to IWL except the house is longer and there's more trees. Everything's also very blue strangely enough.

I'm here with the DCs from the ending of the game, sitting in a ditch. There's a bunch of kittens here.
I am talking to one DC, and then I start getting aware.
I start looking around almost immediately.
I then realize I'm dreaming, and I continue to look around for a bit, looking at how real everything looks. I feel the grass and I hear what it sounds like. I then say "I'm dreaming". I then realize that I'm probably about to wake up soon, so I tell the DCs that I'm about to wake up.

Everything starts getting really blurry, and I get pulled out of the dream. I then feel myself in my bed.

"Don't move! You can still continue! Just think about the dream lightly!"
I lay there for a few seconds, before a DEILD begins.

I'm in my basement after the DEILD, and I look around.
My mom is there, and I yell "I'M DREAMING!" right out of the Stanley parable.

My mom comes over and asks what's up, and i tell her "I'm dreaming right now". She starts hugging me and telling me "You're alright!". I feel the dream start to destabilize.

I tell her "The dream is destabilizing!" and I start rubbing my hands together. I can feel my hands rubbing together bug it feels very blurry as well.

It comes back but its slow. I then get up and look around, and everything looks crystal clear. The basement is much larger than IWL and there's more wood than normal. Most of my vision is taken up by mom though, oddly enough. I ask her "What is the best dream stabilization technique for me?". She doesn't talk, but instead she just grabs me by the nose and pulls me forward towards the steps.

We start walking up the steps and I recall the other LD where I woke up walking up the steps. I start thinking "This is bad shit, don't go up there!" but by doing this the dream is destroyed and I wake up.

I DEILD again.

I open my eyes in my kitchen, on a bed. Already strange as obviously there isn't a bed hovering in my kitchen IWL, and even if there was, you wouldn't want to sleep there.

I look around and everything is blurry but I notice that the walls of the kitchen are of the same siding that the living room is made out of. It's very dark brown. I get up and do a nose pinch RC, and I can breath through, noticing the same effect from the last LD. Interestingly I don't slip while doing it as well.

I then walk into the living room. Most of the stuff from IWL is here except it has a Victorian style. I look around again and everything is blurry, but I notice that if I stair at the same scene for more than a few seconds, that it becomes crystal clear. Clearer than IWL.

I walk into the hallway, and I look around again.
It's almost identical to the hallway IWL. There's a vacuum cleaner in the corner, and the white shelf from IWL isn't there. I walk towards the bathroom door, but I don't open it.

I notice a towel on the vacuum cleaner, and I look at it. I look at how real it is. I can look at every single thread on the towel with surprising accuracy.

I start walking towards the end of the hallway where the steps are, and everything feels completely real. To the point where the omnipresent dream feeling goes away and I have to actually verbally remind myself that I'm dreaming.

I then say "This is why you don't just become lucid from any random dream, THIS. Look how friggin real everything looks!". I look at the gate that blocks off the stairs (not that I was planning to go down them). I then turn around and walk back to the living room where everything fades and I wake up again.

I start doing DEILD again but I can feel my breathing this time. I then think about it for a bit before deciding to just get up.

I then start writing this down.

Spoiler for Temp:

temporary things:

I only remember fragments of this dream. I don't remember how they fit together.

running down a metal spring > standing beside a storage container > standing in the night > OTG switching character > end up beating the game. Apparently the end of the game is set in my back yard lol.


---------
I am in the back yard and everything is all blue, all of a sudden I become more aware, and then I realize I'm dreaming, just because the environment I know isn't part of real life. The DCs from the dream are here. I don't even remember their names except that a few were kittens.

I just kinda lay in a ditch in the back yard (which isn't here iwl) and I can feel the grass. Then the dream starts to fade, and I'm in my bed.

"Don't move! You can still enter a dream!"
I wait for a few seconds and eventually a dream begins.


I'm in a bed. I'm in my kitchen oddly, I get up. I think "yeah these aren't a part of my kitchen. Just to confirm I nose pinched. Everything around me looked completely real, completely immersive. However, moving around into unfamiliar places made my vision blurry. Looking at a scene for only a few seconds made everything crystal clear.
I'm not sure if this is how it works, or if I was supposed to be like this in the dream.

I walk into my hallway.
There's what looks to be a vacuum cleaner with a green towel on it. I look at the green towel and I can see every cloth on the towel. I then look back into the living room, but it's blurry so I turn back to the hallway.

I walk towards the steps, and the gate is closed. I look around again and everything feels completely real.

"You see, this is why you don't just become lucid from dream scenes, THIS."
I then notice that the omnipresent dreamy feeling kinda fades away at this point, and I actually have to remind myself that it's a dream.

I wasn't here to go down the stairs, so I turned around back into my living room when the dream destabilizes, and I'm back in my bed. The dream exited more forcefully and I can feel myself breathing.


I decide not to have another DEILD, and I get up.

Dream 1

I had a little sister in the dream and was trying to make a jam sandwhich with her. But I saw that it had something white in it and complained about it. When my mom heard me she said I was being a bad romodel and I needed to learn to try new things. Hearing her say that I just ate the sandwhich with a sad face. After that I recall a DC who was supposedly my mom's friend saying that I had to leave the house quickly to look for some ingredient that will cure a imperfection in the blood. They opened the front door and to my dismay there were lots of zombies walking outside and moaning.I was aware it was a dream at that time but hearing all the zombies moaning and vivid scenery made me want to stay inside. The DC started begging me to go out before it was too late but I said " It's already too late. The zombies are right in front of us." Than I just layed on the ground waiting for the zombies.

However, the zombies soon dissapeared and a lady who was supposedly my mom's friend came in. She said If I continued to lay on the floor I wouldn't win a free juice or candy. I got up and went to a table where I saw a bag and thought my mom bought me hair accessories. I was eager to try them but when I called my mom she wasn't answering me back. The scene than changed after that and I was in a hospital or the place where they take care of old people. There was a blonde nurse saying her temples and head hurt real bad as they were trying to get the old people to another room. When they were done me and a group of people around my age walked into a room where we could hang out and play games. There was a guy who looked Asian holding a deck of cards. I told him to let me try giving out the cards and he gave it to me. A girl than asked me if I knew how to shuffle. I said no. It didn't matter though because the Asian guy just started talking to a Asian girl and the whole group separated from me and left me alone. I think one of the African girls came to taunt me and a guy who was her boyfriend after they saw me alone. They were speaking another language and I asked if that was a language that started with a P? The girl paused for a moment than said no. I noticed the group of people around me was closer and out of no where it was like I got knocked out. I saw a beautiful forest scenery than woke up.

Dream 2

I was at my house and screamed at my cousin and my brother's friends for making too much noise at night. Than I went back to bed.I woke up on a bed downstairs and new it was a dream but I felt sort of sick. I went upstairs and saw a anime boy walking around and my parakeets flying. My birds were guiding me somewhere but than I appeared in the same bed I was in again. I bit my finger to see if it was a dream and it was. I went through the window, jumped the fence and started walking but than turned around to see a white van drive into my backyard. I pulled a bystander DC as a barrier and saw a cop running in slow motion in front of me. A guy with two guns was about to shoot me so I grabbed the cop's gun and shot him. His last words were " Do you know why I shot you in the left and the right?" Than I woke up

Dream 3

I was at my house and my younger brother was having a party because he was coming back home from school. I was annoyed though cause I had to do a lot of stuff for it even though I did not want to. I found a computer and started to message to my brother how stupid he was instead. I walked to a store to get something after that and a old lady started to beg me to buy something. She showed me a juice but I said I was going to get granola bars instead. I took it but than started looking at a statue of a iguana and jewels that were called the raspberry jewels. But than thieves came and started shooting at innocent people. They wanted to steal the jewels. I think the cops got them in time and I woke up after that.

I was up until 1:30 and went to bed with no intention of lucid dreaming.

Some old 8-bit game involving a rocket scientist who goes back in time to claim a rocket engine that he invented from another scientist who stole his idea. He travels back to 1929 or 1934 (Can't recall but those years were important to the story somehow.) In the end, he travels back to the present.
There was something to do with this huge fuel silo.
He then designs this weird asymmetric spaceship that falls apart before it even launches. He starts re-designing it.

The end.

I remember I was on vacation and I came back to this hotel. Very vivid and semi-lucid. I lose lucidity and come back to the very orange hotel with one of the capacious foyers visible from space that recur in my dreams. Nevertheless I show up and my $200 room is 12 square feet. I'm calling the cops on these assholes now because I am angry, but feel calm (dream emotion?) I just leave and stop at a different hotel. It's surrounded by trees. The road pattern is similar to the development I live near.

The second building came right out of SC 2013. I walk in and go to the elevator, but my luggage is missing. I have to go back to floor one. That is very unpleasant. I am on floor 64 and the time the elevator moves is always the same. At this height, the elevator might as well be free-falling downward. It's slightly painful when I "land", (at least the dream is vivid, I guess). With that bad memory, I leave.

Skating down, the neighbourhood, I fall after a complex series of tricks. I'm on a bike, running from a blob eating away from existence behind me

Now I'm in a car driving away from a wall killing everything and moving along the road. Now it's a twisted BMW commercial where the driver needn't worry while carnage and screams of horror are emitted behind him. I point out eventually he'll die too.

I go to a third hotel, somewhere where I won't be scammed. You have to climb scaffolding not very sturdy, but it's a nice room. Yet again, it's the foyer that seals the deal. It's like they care more about attracting than returning customers. Everything's white or wooden brown. Not Mirror's edge white, a wood paint white easier on the eye. There are tables for a buffet and obligatory steak joint. New dream exposition. I visited a relative and I'm leaving now. I feel oddly satisfied.

I was in Belen at night at the police station asking the Lieutenant why I didn't make it on. The Lt. said to look over my file but I somehow knew they had shredded it earlier. I asked again and the Lt replied "You didn't have confidence in your answers". He gave me the keys to a storage room where they keep files and I went through people's files, seeing what got them to pass. There was a loud knock on the door, which was weird so I found a way outside and made my way around the building.
I saw 2 guys trying to break in and a firefight started between us. The first guy went down pretty quick and I exchanged gunfire with the other one, who eventually went down. It was difficult to hit them because I wasn't aiming properly. I approached their bodies but found out that they were playing dead as they opened fire on me. I ran back around a wall and reloaded my pistol, which was extremely easy to do, and shot back. I knew the guys had me confused with someone else and when I finally killed the bald guy with the white shirt, I called 911 on my phone, which was hard to do because of how slow my phone was. The Lt I was talking to earlier showed up and we arrested the guy that was still alive.

I was at a bar on a mountain or hill and ended up getting into a fight with some drunk guy. I got arrested for fighting and got sent to the prison I worked at. I was there for a few days while the cops investigated the case. I knew what to do in the prison as an inmate because I had worked there and as I lined up for Medline, all of us inmates got sent into a room. I recognized a lot of people and people recognized me, especially the inmates. After we got dismissed, I went to south housing where the grill was closed. I said "Hey Harold, open up so I can do a round!" He opened the grill and was surprised I was there.

I was outside at a large lake with a small building in the middle. It was some sort of swimming park but since it was so cold, people were just hanging out instead of swimming . Megan was there but she was hanging out with some guy and a black kid. They left and were going to the guy's house, which made me pretty jealous. When they got back, I saw the guy she was with and saw that he wasn't as attractive as me so I said that Megan didn't deserve me and took of my workout shirt and dove into the water, which was actually pretty warm compared to the outside temperature. I swam around and checked out the girls in the area but none of them were attractive. I was arguing with some girl that wanted to live off grid, trying to explain to her that doing that sort of stuff is difficult.
I kept swimming and saw Megan looking for something and talking to one of her friends in a building filled with water. I swam into the building and swam upwards towards the roof, grabbing onto some pipes. I said "This is so awesome!" I noticed that the dream had vibrant colors and I said "This can't be a dream, the colors are too vibrant." I decided to do a reality check and since I didn't have my watch, I just counted my fingers. I counted 6 and Megan saw me looking at her. We smiled at each other and I snapped that I didn't have the right amount of fingers. Shortly after I woke up.

Two ladies, the restaurant and C# (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was chatting with a lady who apparently was attracted to me. She wanted to open a restaurant. She was giving me a tour around the place and told me we could work today. I was wondering how I was gonna work there as I was not restaurant employee material. She was sharing with me it was going to be a very pricey place and we would make a lot of money together.

I designed the logo with Photoshop and with C# (I know... too much coding...) and she liked it so much that she kissed me.

From here, we went into her house, she lived in a crystal buidling, very upscale:







She had a small kid and she tried to have sex with me despite the kid being around. I saw a clock and it said it was 3 am. I lived in a building next to her in the dream and I went there, where another girl was waiting for me. She locked herself up in the bathroom with me, but i needed to grab a condom. As I went outside, I saw from my window the other lady's window and she was like looking for me.

I was on the street and despite being like 4am, there were a ton of teenagers getting drunk and eating pizza. There were a ton of ambulant food sellers and they wanted me to sell stuff. I went through a building that was a police station and a cop asked me if I was drunk, but I was sober so he allowed me to keep going on my way. As I got closer to the crystal buidling I could see it was dawn. I went back to meet the lady in the crystal building and she said her mom wasn't going to go to sleep soon because she just had coke (the drug, not the drink.) The lady told me she knew C# and she could help me code the Dreamjournal.

non-dream dream lucid

Had that nap, practiced SSILD cycles, had a really vivid dream that could've turned into a LD if I'da noticed a few things.
Went to bed around 8:30 or so, woke up around 11:45 or so?



Dream fragments:
Looking at Twitch, Twitch not working, Looking at Youtube, youtube kinda works and I learned of a gaming marathon. This was being advertised by some guy who had >1m subs on youtube. I think this is what I was doing on the airplane.

The Plane Crash
Lucid:no
Recall rating: 9

I'm in some huge airliner. I don't even know how I got here.
I'm on my laptop though. Pretty soon after I need to go to the bathroom, so I start looking around.
Eventually I find the area where they do laundry (I'm not sure they do laundry on planes, but they do here). There's some DC with me, and we start looking at these washing machines.

I'm in a medium sized white room with pinkish coloring. There's two rather large white machines in front of me with green pipes heading into them. Looking at the pipes I notice a yellow ring around the green pipe. The green pipe is also really wrinkled, as if it's just a green cloth covering it.

I look at it whirr for a few minutes before wondering how the machines are loaded. I then notice a passageway around the machines. I walk towards it, noticing that the passageway has quite a few steps in it. The floor at the bottom is a bit more dank than above. I then notice the fronts of the machines, which looked a gigantic front-load washer and dryer. I notice they both have windows.

I look through the windows, and next thing I know I'm on a huge white disk with a gap near the edges. I look around and above are some twisting pipes.
Next thing I know after that I'm looking at the machines again, and some of the backs are gone, revealing a huge window where you can see a huge tank of water with clothes in it. It's actually pretty blue water and you can see out the window the other side through it.

The DC that was there told me that it could withstand the plane doing loops without any malfunctions.

After that, I walk out, and I look around. It's like a mix between a house and an airplane. Drywall walls and ceiling bits, but it's obviously a plane! I want to get to the staff area cause I didn't know how I got here. So I find the stairs to the next floor, near a row of seats. The stairs have the same dry walls (with a window on the landing), and gray carpet floors.

All of a sudden I hear a loud sequence of beeps from the PA system. It was 5 repeats of a 5 beep sequence. After that it said "Please return to your seats and fasten yourselves in. This thread has been hidden from view." in a deep woman's voice, almost robotic though.

I immediately start running back towards the bathroom/laundry room. Once I get there I hesitate going in because the machines will be all over the place.

So now I'm in the corner between the stairs and the laundry/bath entrance. That's when I hear a muffled explosion from somewhere in the plane, and feel a hard rumble. I bolt for the stairs, but the plane starts rotating slowly (almost ominously) and before long those stairs aren't stairs anymore.

I grab hold of the railing of the stairs. I then look out a window while holding on (I guess I changed position?) and I can't see anything, just sky. Before long though I see an airfield start rotating into view. You can also see some woods surrounding it. We're really up high above the air strip so I don't know how they'd land it. At this point it's quite obvious that we're out of control, and if we're not lucky we're smashing into that airfield.

We continue rotating, now starting to dive while rotating, and we can see the field in more detail. There's a black airstrip with gray markings. I have loads of anxiety from this, quite understandably. I was breathing quite heavily. Miraculously the pilot manages to stop the rotating and begins to level the plane out, but there's too much vertical velocity and we smash into the airfield.

At this point, everything freezes, goes white, and then I wake up, thrusting my eyelids open with quite a bit of force.

I notice I've not moved once, so I try to recall some details about the dream, and then I try to DEILD. Unfortunately it doesn't work as I'd opened my eyes already.

I give up and start writing this.

"beepbeepbeepbeepbeep, beepbeepbeepbeepbeep, beepbeepbeepbeepbeep, beepbeepbeepbeepbeep, beepbeepbeepbeepbeep, Please return to your seats and fasten yourselves in. This thread has been hidden from view."

I was at my parents house at first and it was broad daylight my dad was helping me with this weeding device and wanted help doing his lawn. Some time went by and i realized he still needed help weeding. I began using the machine that was kind of like a snowplowing machine/ rotatil machine (to use to plow your garden) I had to hold it at a certian level to cut the grass just right to the smallest level. I began going and one of the blades broke so i had to replace it. Some time went by and now it was black outside, I began to cut the grass and found this blade was acting up and i was going to close to the ground and was starting to remove the grass and just have dirt underneath. I kept going and used my flashlight on my cellphone to see where i was going. After some time the blade also broke and i began to head in. it was about 5 am now in the dream as my parents were up and leaving for work. My dad saw me outside and said thanks for doing the lawn.

Dream shift.

I was inside a church kind of setting. I was getting married / engaged to my parents friends daughter. We got put together by both parents and were sitting down at a table together. We were making origami swans and coloring them while talking about different things with the family. I was being polite and asking different things that she might like and started talking about what color she would like for the swan. The options were different color of blues. Dark blue, royal blue, light blue and a few other lighter shades of blue. She picked a light shade of blue and said because it matched my shirt that I looked so nice in. I smiled and thanked her for the kind compliment. We talked about how to be a good couple and to do things for one another to make things better for both of us. I began sharpening a pencil and whne i pulled it out of the sharpener the end of it was bubbled and when i pinched it lead fell out onto the table in a chunk.

Dream shift.

Im in a sporting place like a YMCA. I am in a swimming pool with a bunch of people and this one man/ thing is afraid to jump into the water saying he cant unless there is less people in the pool. After checking our swimming suits were still decent me and others got out of the pool and went upstairs. There I was with several family members. My brother was showing this old video of him for some reason when he was a baby and my mom was trying to feed him pickles. Inside the cup that had the pickles water spilt out though onto the carpet so you could see his arm reach infront of the camera to clean the water up. I see the pickles being fed to the baby as it makes weird faces from the sours. During this time I was given this big container of dog treats that i was eating. After almost eating the remainder of the treats a higher up person at my work asked if he could have some so i gladly gave him the container of dog treats.

Dream 1

I was on my parent's bed with my younger brother who was trying to sleep. Someone in the dream was giving me a message that something bad was about to happen. I found a wooden cube and through it out the window to see what would happen. That's when skull head zombies started walking in the house. I didn't think I would escape so I just lay on the bed to see what would happen. The skull heads just started breathing hot breath all over my face and pretended to eat me. I pushed them back and someone who gave me the message appeared. They brought me to my living room where I told myself I was going to wake up.The DC girl said O.k and I reappeared on my bed. I bit my fingers to see if I was awake and I wasn't. I decided to just go on with the dream. The girl came back and brought me to the living room. There I peaked down the stairs and saw someone was flickering the lights. I called for Dawn or Eye but no one answered. The girl than pulled me and showed me a iPad or handheld game where mini rpg characters were shooting arrows at a giant on the bed. She said he was getting stronger and the arrows weren't working. I thought she was going to give me a quest but than I woke up.

Dream 2

I only remember the part when I was being told something about dream guides helpfulness.

non-dream dream lucid

Went to sleep around 1:30 or so, which is a HUGE difference from when I've been going to sleep recently.
Woke up around 6:45. Might get another nap after this.

I can't help but think that before this, I might've had a lucid dream. Incredibly hazy though.
The only thing I can remember is I'm on my couch, and the bathroom light is on. No other light source exists and the room seems to be quite a bit different. The atmosphere is one of uneasiness, but it could quickly turn to anxiety if anything strange happens.

EDIT: I seem to remember something else.
I'm on my couch, and I'm moving around. There's lots of people here. It's hard to get comfortable.

But the main event is to follow.
-----------
Visiting Chicago for no reason
Recall score: 8
Lucid: no
TGMG: no

So I'm in Detroit. Lots of brown buildings with glass around us, as well as a monorail track above? We're in a pretty large open area, with lots of space. Lots of DCs around me (including television reporters), mostly centered around a rather large police van which at that point bursts open.

Two DCs come out of the back. One looks kinda like one of the police investigator types. Shorter, probably older and lacking hair, and has a really deep voice.
The other DC (taller, more mexican looking) is more aggressive, but it seems that the two have been together for more time than you'd think.

So they come out and now they're standing in the middle of this clearing with loads of DCs surrounding (I'm in the group). All of a sudden the cop pulls out a pistol and points it at the other DC. So they kinda just stand there for a second. I try to get as far away from their line of fire as possible. Apparently a lot of the other DCs are as its hard to move around even though the crowd isn't amazingly thick.

Eventually, and somehow, the criminal guy runs towards the cop, steals the pistol and in what seems like two seconds, the cop gets shot in the head. I'm immediately contemplating running like fuck, before everyone starts cheering. I'm like "wtf" before everyone starts clearing the area. I walk off, but I stay around long enough to see some of the TV stations come and look around. By this time it's starting to get dark out.

One of the channel 7 guys comes and videos the corpse of the cop, before remarking "Put this on youtube and watch it become the next viral video".

Next thing I know I'm walking down a street. Very brown, the stores are brown, the sidewalks brown, the awning that's above me is brown. There's a handrail to my right that I'm holding on to.

After that, I remember my mom picking me up and we drive back home. So now I'm at home in my living room, and my mom is telling me to get ready. I get in the car and then in what feels like 5 minutes we're in Chicago.

I get out of the car and look around for a bit at all the buildings. It's really really nice out, early morning, twilighty blue sky, and it's cold but not uncomfortably cold. I seem to recall a slight breeze as well.
I'm thinking "There's places here that I don't even remember!". Last time I was here was in 2004 or so.
Like the brown building with vertical glass windows and what looks like a wine cork on the top.

At that point I start looking at the skyline and thinking "on one of those buildings is the WLS ch7 transmitter!".
Of course, we had our own ch7 (WXYZ) but theirs is a lot fancier.
At that point I recall a dream fact that WLS and a few other stations moved their transmitters off the downtown skyscrapers a few years ago!

I look back away from the skyline and I eventually see another building off in the distance. The building itself was another skyscraper but not nearly as skyscraping as the ones on the skyline. It was mostly blue and glass. It has a red and white tower on it. "That must be it!" I think to myself. And just in front of it I see a lattice mast with three small towers coming off the top. "Another antenna I guess".

So I get back in the car and before I even ask my mother to stop and get something to eat, she's already driving downtown towards a restaurant. Not in downtown but close. We stop and get out and walk into a building almost entirely composed of very thick green glass. It's a rather fancy restaurant, with lots of wooden seats and tables. We go and sit on one of the other tables to the side.
Lots of DCs around us, all really nice as well. I choose not to really interact, but rather just take everything in.

I can't remember what I ate, but I know it was on a plate. Was it fish? Fish rings a bell actually. Was really good.

After I ate, I looked around, and I could see outside the building through the glass. Loads of DCs walking by outside.

Eventually we walk out and we walk back to our car.
And after that, it's back home. I wake up not too soon after.

Moron Dog 11/05/2014
Before I went to bed, my dog had eaten a small styrofoam cup full of various candies. At least 3 bite-sized snickers and a couple of Hershey pieces. I was worried, but my boyfriend stayed up with him since I had to get up early. Apparently he only got really hyper. That worry found its way into my dream where I saw my dog who raided the refrigerator when we left the door open and turned away for a moment. He insisted on eating a tomato and would not release it when I tried to wrench it from his mouth, he just kept stubbornly chewing while I yelled "NOOOOO, DON'T EAT THAT."


Gypsy Symbol 11/06/2014
These are hard for me to describe, the telling of them will be short even though they felt complicated. The scenery had weight, depth. I met a man who had two children, this was well after the End of Things, maybe a follow up to the storm nightmare I just had? They called their appearance an anomaly, even a deformity, but to me they seemed beautiful. The three of them were black, but they had...metallic gold spots, like a leopard's. It almost looked like paint. They even had some on their eyes.
The man was in his late thirties, his boy was fifteen, and the girl...18 months? She was young enough to spend most of her time in a carrier. I see them in a house, though it is day, the days are mostly dark now. They had found some other people and weren't yet sure if the group could be trusted. The man instructs his son to keep an eye on his sister, always.
I remember him turning away from a piano to the open door where his son stands, and seeing the empty carrier on the front landing and snapping, "Where's your sister?"
They spent some time thinking that she had been abducted, her appearance was just as unusual as their own. She wasn't actually missing.

House
I have leased a house with my sister and we have already put money down. Until now we hadn't been able to closely examine it. We walk into the tiny, U-shaped kitchen. The cabinets are dirty white and of an extremely antiquated style. There were two white ranges, one at the back of the U, and one on the left side. We were dismayed to note that two cabinets were so mold ridden to rot, almost falling from the wall. The range on the left was on an odd little 2 inch tall platform, and when I insisted that we could improve the layout of the kitchen by moving it, we found that we would have to sit a cabinet on top of the platform and that the run would be ugly and uneven. I remember opening one of the rotten cabinets and comment that they couldn't get away with renting it to us in this condition and wonder aloud if they will buy cabinets to replace these. At once point I looked at the kitchen and saw only obstacles, the ranges pulled out, twice as many cabinets, and all stacked where the open space in the center should be. I said something about how I couldn't believe anyone would build a kitchen like it.
When we open the rotten cabinets again my sister and I find two....creatures. Honestly it looks like a writhing, levitating, dark stocking full of black flies, with puffy growths on either side. My sister says that they are definitely *insert word I can't remember*, because she's seen them before, this is the stage right before they hatch and swarm everything. Yaaaaaaaaay. I decide I can't deal with it and, hearing her promise to take care of them for me, I leave the house. That is entirely backwards, by the way, I was always the one to kill bugs for her.
The exterior of the house consists of thick, uneven, cream colored blocks. The lawn is astroturf green. It feels as though I am inside and out, that the sky is painted on the ceiling of a building. There are many people outside with me, and someone comments on the symbol carved into a top block of the house. It has been painted over, but was so deeply carved into the stone that it is still visible...if vague. I recognize it as a gypsy symbol, and we talk about how it is not the only gypsy marked building, a remnant from when they conquered the area. The symbol is an upside-down triangle with an upward, right-slanting slash that reaches past the border of the pyramid then has arms, like a crude arrow or an antenna. ((I know that there are such a thing as hobo or gypsy symbols, but I could not find one that matched it, and it has been years since I researched such things so I have no idea where this came from.))
I then witness a scene unfolding in symbols on a sandstone tablet. I know it is a folktale, about a man who travels through the desert and has to choose which he values more: the camel on which he rides, or the water strapped to his back.
At some point my sister runs past me and jokingly tries to hand me one of the dead creature husks from the cabinets. I flip out once I realize what she's offering to me. "Nope. NO. Nuh-uh."

My Friend's Stepfather 11/10/2014
It seems my subconscious cannot offer me anything nice, without at least a little unpleasantness. The next two dreams have that in common.
I don't remember much. It was sort of like I was talking to someone online and also in person, there was a detached manner to our conversation. Like it was text instead of speech. I am sitting on a bench, next to a handsome man in a suit, on a transport of some kind. It looked like a house, with one open wall, and nothing inside. In all honesty, he looks like Scott's dad from Teen Wolf. Except his eyes were light brown, instead of dark brown. He wasn't as broad-shouldered, either. He is a doctor of some renown, rich (of course), a world traveler (of course). We chat about me, mostly. He asks my name (very strangely, I reply with my real name, this has only happened a handful of times in my entire life). He asks where I am from, and I say I am living in Oklahoma. He says he lived at a Fort(something or other...I can't remember the name). I smile, delighted that he knows of my home. He is flattering me, I know. He mentions that he was only stationed there a few months, passing through on his way to Africa. The transport stops, and we hop off. We go to a truck where my co-worker M is sitting in the back. It turns out the man is her step-father. (In WL she just has her biological father, her parents are still together)...anyway. He climbs into the back of the truck and asks me if I have ever been to Paris. I say no, but mention my time in Italy with my father.
"I know, M told me about it."
I scold her for sharing information with him. Not because I really cared, but now it was one less thing we could have a conversation about. I was worried that he would realize I wasn't interesting and stop talking to me.

My Friend's Husband 10/11/2014
*sighs* I hate my subconscious.
It is morning, all the lights are off in the house. There is a man. I resist calling him handsome. He is attractive in a rugged way, he is incredibly manly. He looks like Hawley from Sleepy Hollow, except he is taller, broader of shoulder and face, skin more ruddy, hair more wavy. He, predictably, is Liam's height. That makes him about 6'4". I am myself, so I am 4'11". As you can imagine, he towers over me. Predictably, this makes him incredibly alluring.
It is very quiet in the house, we are sitting on a dark blue sofa. He suggests that I should join him, in bed, if I am so inclined. It is then...of course, that I remember he is my friend's husband ((Also not even close to the truth, her fiance is nothing like this man in any way)). I have a terrible moment of doubt about our moral compasses. He says it wouldn't matter to her, they are married but have not been a couple for many years. They are rarely in the same room together, they don't even sleep in the same bed, and they don't talk so much as argue.
There is a fragment his son (not with her). He seems sweet. For a moment I trick myself into believing that I could take care of a child, if I really wanted. That maybe, just now and just for him, it would be fine. I struggle to recall that I don't want children and why.
My friend returns and sits between us. They don't seem to hate each other, but they don't love one another either. She reminds us that the gathering will start soon, and to be ready. As soon as there are other people around, it's like he has forgotten I exist. I wonder if I was over dramatizing our interactions, if he was attracted to me at all, and then I feel like a terrible person for wanting my friend's husband to be attracted to me. I see how they are together, and all the ways they are perfect together. I remind myself it is a facade. Maybe. I wander away. He hasn't even acknowledged my existence, I decide to retreat to another part of the house with less traffic. I set my drink on a tall patio table and turn to leave. He is there, then. Very briefly touching my wrist. I look up at him. He gives me a small smile and then lets me go.


There's a handful of dumb fragments about playing World of Warcraft and a friend saying he found some people to run normal Siege of Orgrimmar. When we got there he said "I uh, have something to tell you. This isn't normal. It's heroic."
"Ben, my gear is terrible! I can't run heroic SoO."
"It'll be fiiiine. Just hang out in the back and don't stand in any puddles."
"They'll kick me out.."
"Naaaaah."
