+ (f) selling stock?

+ kissing the move star

In an open top car, a beautiful (movie star?) has her face up close to mine filling my vision, I kiss her several times (quick pecks)

+ saving child from car, "help me out!", sharp pipe dangerously close to "the family jewels"

I'm in the back seat of a car, driver's side, pulling a (child?) out to safety, I'm opening the door and pushing it with my body/arm, another (shiny blue?) car is pushed up against our car making it hard to get out, I sort of shove the blocking car a bit away. I ask "help pull me out!" to some (friends?) standing nearby, and they grab my left arm and slowly I emerge from the car. While they're doing this I look down and I see a severed vertical metal pipe with very sharp edges (like a traffic sign pole) move directly underneath my crotch, I'm barely making it over the pipe and I really hope that my friends do not drop me, I anticipate contact but it never comes. Once outside of the car I'm talking with people.

+ (long) invitation-only complex, sexy soylent-green

I'm approaching a very fancy complex in the distance, the entire area is invitation-only a famous guy must first invite you in but I go in anyway, along a walkway up to a mall-like complex. It's dark-ish outside. Approaching, there are several different "stores" there, all with writhing sexy people in them. The one on the right is "the hall of bestiality" which holds no interest for me. The one on the left seems like a strip-club of some sort and there's a line of people waiting to get in. One by one sexy women in skimpy outfits come out of the club to escort the next customer inside, most of them are dark-skinned. They also have some sort of object with them. One comes out and beckons to me, I do not find her particularly attractive and I see that she is carrying a large roll of something that I think she wants to wrap me in, I do not care either for her or the idea of getting wrapped but I do want to get inside the club, so I go with her.

She starts wrapping me in something in between cellophane and thin styrofoam packing, it doesn't hold well around my body and I have to hold it up to keep it from falling away and exposing me.

She escorts me to a shower area, there are a row of about 5 showers there with doors on the front, the two on the ends have higher doors then the ones in the middle, we approach the one on the right and it's in use but the guy in there leaves and moves to one of the middle ones, I go in and take a short shower, I see and feel the water.

Next she escorts me (I'm always being led from place to place) through a room that looks like some sort of industrial kitchen. I think "oh man I hope they're not preparing us to eat", I have a thought of soylent green and wonder if we're being prepared as some sort of food items.

In another room a man gives a bunch of directions for how the "customers" should be prepared, including applying 0.5 volts of electricity to their heads for 30 minutes. I'm thinking we may never get out of here.

My wife is being also escorted around by a young man (Jeff?), she mentions how she likes it so much but that she (realizes it's not genuine?).

(late)

+ orchestra strings audition; "don't follow me!", "I'm sleeping, not dead" @ grandparents house, buxom girl asks me incomprehensible questions, kids take pictures of dead body and post on internet

I'm observing a youth orchestra rehearsal, the cello/bass section are holding live auditions for moving up in the section, I see and hear various young female cello players playing a solo selection from a very familiar piece (can't name it), and they are dragging the bows across the strings to get double-string sounds very artistically, I think about this for a moment. I wonder if the bass players will also audition. I wonder if the auditioners will immediately move up in their sections or not. Then the orchestra (string section only) starts accompanying the auditioning soloists with very fast tremolo.

One of the young female musicians gets up and says "do NOT follow me, absolutely under no conditions should anybody come after me!" and a runs down the street. Well, I think, saying it like that is just begging to be followed, haha, so I say "come on, guys, let's go!" and run down the sidewalk after her. I have some notion that she was going to / or had encountered a dead body. We arrive at the driveway to my grandparent's house where there is a youngish woman lying in an open coffin, apparently dead. I'm looking at her and I start to see movement, breathing, her head's moving, she's not dead apparently! She opens her eyes and looks around but remains lying there, she says "not dead -- sleeping."

I'm moving through a large crowd of people on the driveway by the front door but there are too many people, so I go inside the house squeezing in the front door. Inside in the living room I see a youngish woman lying on her stomach on a couch with her head facing me, propped up on her elbows, she has large breasts which are hanging down and resting on the couch, a few stretch marks and no nipples visible. She seems familiar and I walk by her to the left and acknowledge her by briefly patting her head as I go by, she has bronze/brass-colored hair (with two short pigtails?). She (grabs my hand?) and turns and says something to me, she is not very pretty I realize, and I think that I've gotten together with another girl and hope this one isn't hurt by that.

I'm kneeling down by the couch and her arm is resting on my leg, and I reciprocate and rest my right arm on top of hers, I feel the contact/warmth. She asks me something I just can't understand, something like "How are you outside? And Inside? (meaning location, relative to this house)" but I just can't make it out and ask her twice more and each time she repeats the same barely comprehensible thing.

Back outside the house? I hear/think that my kids have taken pictures of some dead body in an open coffin and posted them on the internet, I think this is entirely inappropriate and intend to tell them so.

+ (The Phase success? lucid in the void?) power flight through structures, avoid titan, @parent's house waking at sunset, getting a slice of chocolate cake from the fridge (sister)

This is possibly my first successful "The Phase" attempt. I have tried once or twice earlier in the night but didn't find any success with it.

Clearly, *something* happened.

I'm lying on my right side and I realize I'm awake. I try to immediately separate by visualizing myself lunging out of bed but nothing happens. I then quickly visualize rotating on my vertical axis, hmm, something seems to happen, not sure, I move to attention to visual, and I see something like a pamphlet appear, so I "push" into this vision, and I feel like I've "entered" a scene very much like "getting lucid" feels like, and still see the pamphlet but a bit closer and more like "dream" vision. I think I've entered the dream state! But the pamphlet vanishes and I'm left with no visuals. I feel my wife moving in the bed but I remain in this dream like state in the void.

Then suddenly I hear a roaring grow in my ears, it gets extremely loud and it feels like my whole body is shaking. It subsides and then repeats, even more intense, sort of unpleasant, but I stay with it hoping it will lead to a dream (could already have been the dream in retrospect), but it subsides.

So I imagine a dream location I want to appear in and start flying, eventually I enter a non-lucid flying dream, I have some sort of girl on my back whom I'm showing around, I'm gliding at first but switch to powered flight, think about skimming the rooftops of the tall buildings downtown and impressing her, then there are some large reddish structures around, very tall, and I'm flying below and among the large shapes which look like red construction cranes. Some sort of giant (really big, bigger than the cranes) being appears and (starts shooting bolts of energy around?). I evade and head back the way I came.

I'm in my parent's house, I just got up, I'm in the living room, everybody else is still asleep, I look out the window and see a colorful sunset, my God, did everybody sleep through the entire day?

I go into the kitchen, thinking about food, don't see anything good, look in the fridge, and see on a lower shelf slightly hidden a plate of what looks like a white frosted cake with yellow (pineapple?) chunks in it, I take this out and it is actually a collection of many different slices of different takes with very ornamental frosting on top, I'm selecting a piece, I decide on a chocolate piece and am trying to scoop it out but can't. My sister appears and says something like how it takes so much effort to make these cakes and it nobody eats it she won't bother, I say that I like it. I see a piece lying on its side with chocolate chips spread through the cake piece.
