90: 5.8.10; 10:28AM Inside a Game: Leaving the Arabic City. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm inside a game that allows me not only to use various weapons but allows me to move as if in real life, which I utilize very much in the way of climbing vines and ropes and walls to go different places. I run into very interesting characters and even find myself fighting someone and trying to use martial arts techniques to beat them.

Afterward, I find myself in an Arabic city within the game, with a man who resembles Gaston from Beauty and the Beast, and I prepare to leave. He protests and won't go with me for some reason. I tell him plainly that I'm going, and I climb the vines that have grown on a massive wall, one that separates the city from the outside lands, and I head out. I find myself in the woods, and come upon a small house/inn with many people inside it, despite its relatively tiny size. They are very hospitable and welcoming. I make myself at home and talk with them while wondering if the Gaston-lookalike is following me.

89: 5.7.10; 12:22AM With Julia at the Carnival. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm jumping around on vehicles in a parking lot, setting off some alarms on my way to getting a ride in someone's truck. I manage to get inside a truck and the dream transitions.

I'm at a carnival with Julia. I run into the guys from the band and we have a lengthy argument, which is so long we wind up walking around while continuing it. Eventually I lose track of them and am talking to myself. I head back to where I'd left Julia, to find there are two very long lines at a particular attraction in which she's working. I get to the front after waiting in line a few moments, and she talks to me about going to Disney World, while I look over her emerald-coloured makeup and dress, seeing she's wearing a generous amount of jewelry.

Later, we're sitting in a store talking with one another.

88: 5.6.10; 9:15AM Birthday Party and Antique Dresses for Julia. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm at ma's house, during a birthday party for Julia. Sarah and some of her friends are there and start watching a movie on a massive TV, and I watch a little of it.

Later, I'm buying antique dresses for Julia.

87: 5.5.10; 9:45AM Part 2: Looking For Emily. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I am driving around in a truck looking for Emily, with the understanding that we're playing some game or are in some competition.

87: 5.5.10; 9:15AM Part 1: Steve Vai Guitar. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I order a Steve Vai guitar online, and it shows up in my hands shortly thereafter. I begin to play it fingerpicked, and I switch around some settings (either on a pedla, on an effects processor, or on the guitar itself - I don't recall) to get different tones he uses. However, none of them sounded quite like Steve.

86: 5.4.10; 9:56AM Part 2: Outta My Vehicle! (MILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I am in a red SUV that doesn't belong to me, and a bald young man gets into the back seat, requesting I drive him to his home. He's clearly a leech, looking to bum rides off people, so I politely try to get him to leave. After trying to reason with him, I lose my cool and turn around in my seat, shouting "You have 10 seconds to get out." He continues to talk and stall. I say "5 seconds!" He threatens to call his posse and pulls out his phone to call them.

I figure this is my chance - I wrestle his phone away from him and hold it out my window, threatening to throw it and start driving off. He leans against the window behind mine, where he is sitting, and tries to reach for it. I hit the button to roll down his window and he tumbles out. Rolling up all my windows and locking the doors, I drive off.

However, the window on my passenger side wasn't all the way rolled up, allowing him to latch on and try to pull himself inside the vehicle again. I grabbed him by the neck and forced him (very roughly) back out, watching him take a seriously painful-looking roll down the tall hill from the road I was on, heading straight into a park bench while clenching his throat and fighting for breath.

I turn my focus back to the road, celebrating by spouting profanities and laughing my rear end off from what I did to that guy. I see ahead of me some familiar signs and realize I'm in Las Vegas, which I had mentioned in an earlier dream (one I haven't logged from this night). I'm still excited and laughing about recent events and start shouting that I'm in Vegas. I realize I'm in a dream, and start shouting, "This is a lucid dream!" I keep driving, and driving well I might add, while I try to remember the tasks of the month. I remember to give someone a flower, and look around for someone to give it to.

Slowly but surely, people appear on sidewalks and benches, including an old lady in a light blue sweatshirt who's out for a walk. I figure she's a nice enough person to deliver a flower to, and I park the vehicle to hop out and hand her a flower. While I'm trying to summon a flower in my hand, the dream goes fuzzy and I slip into a false awakening in which I'm trying to DEILD, and find myself explaining it to someone who'd asked me what I was doing. I woke up thereafter from an external sound.

86: 5.4.10; 9:56AM Part 1: A Skylit Drive T-shirts. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I am inside my local Hot Topic and there are tons of A Skylit Drive shirts in stock. I search for one that I like, but all of them have designs that don't interest me, and are all purple on black. I pick out one that's mostly black, but I don't get a chance to see the design before I wake up.

85: 5.2.10; 12:05PM Part 2: Mental Institution in the Old West. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm out at a Burger King with a friend who works at McDonald's, so we decide to make a scene and run off.

I wind up back at my mom's house and see Sarah leaving, and I start looking around the house and leaving some items in hidden places that I'd removed from the premises earlier.

The dream transitions again and I'm in what appears to be a mental institution combined with a hospital, and I'm talking with a woman who is very thankful for my kindness and for talking with her. I walk down the long room and through the doorway when I hear her ask, "Who are you?" I turn back and after a moment's thought, reply, "I'm just trying to help everyone."

In the next room I discover, and one of the mentally unstable patients is out in the street below (this dream takes place on the second floor, and the town is looking every bit like an old Western town, by the way) with a shield and sword, and apparently requested a fight with me. Others in the room aim their rifles toward the window to shoot down at him, but I tell them to lower their weapons, that I'd fight him myself. I wake up before the fight starts.

85: 5.2.10; 10:25AM Part 1: Beaten with a Flamethrower! (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm inside a game like Socom 3, my adversaries being humans and some interesting blue and black armoured monsters. I have difficulty killing the humans because no matter how many rounds I pump into their heads, they don't die. I pull out a flamethrower-like weapon and burn some monsters to death, then flip the gun around and begin beating another monster to the ground, stepping on his tail to prevent him from escaping or moving.

84: 5.1.10; 10:45AM Matt Tuck's Credit Card. (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I am hanging out with Matt Tuck from Bullet For My Valentine. He's working on what appears to be homework, and sets his credit card down on the table while he works. I clearly see the numbers and consider taking them down, but I decide against it, not wanting to be malicious toward him. He asks me to help him with a worksheet of finding parallelograms, and I wake up thereafter.
