FryingMan

+(f) (vague, impression) work, large buildings

+(f) guys tossing small glass vials from shelves into the air and swinging at them with baseball bats

+ I'm looking up at the top of my instrument and I notice the 2nd to the last key hole is entirely uncovered, the key mechanism seems to have fallen inside the tube! I'm trying to figure out what happened, I won't be able to play the lowest notes

+ (long, vivid) lying on bed in (4th grade?) classroom start of school day, chart on wall with recycling terms, boy rolls over me I grab him with both arms an roll with him, 2 boys on counter are reading the chart with me; French class, huge pronunciation char on wall, I read several of the (nonsense) words out loud with French pronunciation.

In house lying on bed, I'm visitor no my house, father (big guy) comes in with a huge pacifier in his mouth (WLAT moment, "Whoa/WTF! Look at that!), he takes it out and holds it up against a vent in the ceiling which looks like a large round sprinkler-style showerhead which is a vacuum sucking air out, the pacifier flattens against the surface of the vent from the pressure of the air moving out, this is I know to sanitize the pacifier. I'm telling the tale of my trip back to school, saying how I was reading the charts, and the mother is saying "Oh! Oh, how wonderful, Oh, that's great, Oh!" to everything I'm saying (I just hear her she's not visible).

Boy on 2nd floor hallway putting on a bright blue full-body condom (more like a garbage bag) over his head (it drapes down his entire body to the floor, I think that won't be a very comfortable experience, and I think it's hilarious) with the help of his mother, his (ahem) gets bigger (baguette, french bread), I start feeling myself the lubricant inside as if I was wearing it. I think the Then downstairs his dad is naked (but not erect) and his wife says "Oh this was just an excuse to get naked with me!" Then their "daughter" comes home, she's older like late teens or early 20's, she's staggering and has a glazed expression on her face, to me it's clear that she's completely smashed, the mother notices then and hovers over her saying "Oh, what's wrong, what's wrong, baby!?". Then the father starts speaking in a super basso-profondo voice, so deep that it's almost impossible to understand what he's saying. He's talking about the planning of a party, and says to the drunk "daughter", whom he calls "Debbie," and at this point I realize she's a fake daughter, like an actress, not a real one, because of the name change, that she can come to the party only if she doesn't bring her drunk/loser friends.

Then I get the feeling that the entire think was like a show I was partially participating in: my view now is inside a medium-sized theater in the 1950's, my perspective is from the left side (looking out) of the stage looking into the audience. I see people, particularly women, are dressed in the 1950's style. The theater is about 40-50% full, there are ample empty seats around but it's still a decent-sized crowd. Down front in the right-middle section is a large man with short dark hair, a chiseled look, wearing jeans, also like a 1950's "tough guy".

Then I'm seated in the section near that guy, but facing back up towards the rear of the theater. The actors from "The Munsters" appear in the aisle by me and walk down, first the Herman guy comes and sits right next to my on my left, I immediately hold out my hand and shake his hand, then the other actors huddle standing around me, and I touch each one of them, and I say,

I've touched 2 famous people in 2 seconds! <touch another one>
I've touched 3 famous people in 3 seconds! <touch another one>
I've touched 4 famous people in 4 seconds!

Then I look to the left and there are some women actors there and I say "...in 11 seconds!"

Then all of their faces are pushed up right into mine our cheeks, etc. are touching, I'm wondering a bit about my breath and there's some removal tooth partial in my mouth that isn't seated correctly.

+ I'm turning off and on some electronic security attached to a desktop computer system outside at a "fair". I'm inserting a USB flash drive into the USB slot of the computer. Later I'm inserting the entire drive into a door into the front side of the computer and I think this is really convenient because you can store the USB drive inside without risk of breaking off the attachment. You can retrieve it from the other side.

+ standing outside in a backyard garden. There is a pineapple plant on the ground mostly gone, just the bottom portion remains, I slice off a portion to eat and a massive cloud of hundred/thousands of fruit flies buzz up around my face, so thick I can feel them as I swat them away. The owner of this yard comes up and is really angry that I'm eating his plant, he picks a second plant which was still growing, and hands it to me sarcastically, saying "here, why don't you eat this one, too!?". I tell him he shouldn't have done that. I see now that I'm several yards away from my own yard and feel a bit bad about eating this guy's pineapple, I say I'm sorry several times.

+ I'm walking outdoors at the foot of a steep tall hill right next to me. There's a large square-shaped mansion nearby and I start scaling the front wall which is made from bricks. The facade of the house quickly becomes an impassable overhang, and I'm hanging off of the wall with one hand holding and looking up and trying to see a way forwards, but I can't. Then I'm floating/flying up along the side of the house, this is (Ronnie Lott's? Some famous 49er or football player)'s house, someone is criticizing him for quitting but I think it's fine to retire. I'm concerned about flying too high over the roof line because there may be automated gun turrets up there, I see tons of security cameras on the walls. There is a neighboring mansion that also has a lot of security cameras. I'm flying and I'm gaining altitude, and I head towards the flat roof top of a house nearby. I land and get a good running start and take off again.

I land in my CH bedroom, I'm crouched down next to the wall along the hallway, and there's a small cabinet with containers there. I pour myself a glass of white wine. There are several opened bottles of white wine, with just a little bit of wine left in them, with the corks sticking out of the top. I see my glass of wine sitting on the floor, the wine is a light amber color. My (dad?) comes and wants some of the tomato sauce (for his cracker?). The bottles are sitting in the little cabinet/shelf thing on the floor. I notice that many of the bottles have loose tops. One looks like an unopened bottle. Bottle after bottle which I open is spoiled, there's lots of mold in the sauce. I toss several of the bottles in the trash. My dad says he really wants some of that sauce. I get the bottle which I think was unopened but it's also spoiled and moldy. He starts to dip his cracker in a particularly moldy bottle where the sauce is solid green colored from the mold.

+ I'm standing in a medium-sized square room with GS friend NM. I'm staring at the walls: they are all painted with brick-shaped patterns in many differnt colors but mostly various shades of blue. There are multiple different patterns along a single wall, one pattern area fading into another, 3-4 patterns along the wall, and I'm trying to figure out which one was the real/original pattern, N says something about this.
N says "remember that huge table?" and I do [FALSE], it's a really large rectangular wooden plain-featured dining table. I "remember" how we fit 10 (20?) huge pizzas on that table during some party.

+ Outside daylight in some suburban driveway, [DO], observing a (mother and daughter?) how they leave the driveway and drive away on the road on some large inflatable water mattress. The mother gets on top, and the daughter crouches down on the side of it in the water (which fills the street). The girl then presses a button on a small wheel set into the side of the mattress, which then starts rotating, which drives the mattress forwards down the street, with the girl holding on and getting pulled along with it. I [DO] follow. The mattress soon enters the main street downtown, which has been shut down for the summer, closed to car traffic, and covered with inflatable jump house (inflatable raft) material, inflated, and covering all the street from curb to curb and extending forwards all the way down the street. The woman's raft "jumps" up on top of the street/raft base, and continues going forwards, the wheel moving it fairly slowly. I drift along [DO] behind it, observing the downtown. It is deserted for the summer, nobody is around. I look into little burger stands/restaurants which we pass wondering if they're open, don't see people inside.

At the end of the street we reach a water park and enter. The road is a driveway that curves upwards and to the left. There is wording embedded on the ground that "<some place> sucks". Some guy says something about "marketing" which should be ignored because it's not sponsored by the water park. I approach the swimming pool (which is on a slope?) and enter the water. There are various groups of women/girls around and I approach near some of the girls checking them out but moving on. I get out and go to some (dressing?) area where one of the girls (naked?) is eating a snack and looking at something, and I think about getting a snack from my locker. Then there's a guy there who I "remember" I owe some money to, might as well pay him now, I get out my wallet and pick through it, find a $100 bill and hand it out to him. I keep looking through the wallet but there are not many bills left in there now.

WBTB, read for 1.5 hours, some drowsiness returning
BTS

Took a long time getting back to sleep, sinking slowly into relaxation, doing DY (lotus, Ah) visualizations, relaxing breathing, relaxing SSILD. Start several times to get images appearing, noise in room distracts, but I tenaciously hold on to drowsiness and eventually return to sleep and dreaming.

there were quite a lot of dreams but as per usual for > 8 hours after bedtime, recall is vague, except for a few moments which really stand out vividly.

+ guys & sex demonstration:

Spoiler for yucky sexual content. ew.:

I'm next to some guys who are talking in great detail about male anal sex. There is one guy leaning over a bench sticking his naked butt out. There is a knowledgeable guy there who's mentioning the various sensitive spots inside. He's giving advice. Then he takes his erection and tries to stick it in the other guys' butt. I'm amazed that he's really going to do that.

+ I'm lying face-down & naked on a raised boardwalk with gaps between the boards where I place my (ahem). People are gathering in an adjacent field and there are some people in a building across the field, I wonder if they'll see me.

+ I'm coming down a ladder, speaking in a convincing fake southern accent several times (belated day residue from Orange is the New Black?)

+ lying on mats outside with several people, I look up and see 3-4 small birds like sparrows hovering right above us, I sit up, one bird lands on my mat and gets huge like a vulture, has a humanish/dolphinish round head, I'm concerned about catching some disease from it and shoo it off my mat

+ lying on table with thick down jacket discussing video system with its inventor (I say "13-14 bits per channel probably!", he says "no, 12", I say "what have you built with it?" He says "a kaleidoscope")

+ sexy time #1 (semi-lucid), starting with face up close, standing in mirror, say "no you can't leave", go to chair across room, call girl back again, go bring her back, sit down and BJ and wake/transition

+ fence latches old home side entrance, dial in kitchen going crazy, interacting with young/mid teens

+ sexy time #2 multiple at once (fingers) end with BJ

+ sexy time #2.5: barber shop for naked men, what gender are the (naked) stylists? See sexy pose of petite hot latinas, see (escort?) advertisements, find sexy latina and position her and wake

many scenes in later dreams:

+ red-white-blue basketballs, game of horse with (naked girl?)

+ pool/billiards game, sign ups full, aims too thick & adjusting, price and quality and weight of pool cue ("you should keep it clean")

+ meal planned: bottle of stringed zuchini in mustard/mayonaise sauce, spooning it out onto a plate

+ with girl I like, avacado-sized head, cradle it in right hand, gently kiss her cheeks, she's says she's scared because I'm so big, I'm heartbroken but pull back and sulk quietly, not responding any more to her, she leaves, comes back, and hints that if we were to get compatible dentures on the right side from a dentist things could be different

+ the guy has returned: I reach to shake his hand and he leaves me hanging. He's all serious and says that he did not hear back about any positions for me and that there were not any recommendations. I get teary but try to hold it in and mention finally that "McCall (of Lonesome Dove) recommended my work" and leave, then I get cell phone call from my sister who's telling me that the volunteer traveling basketball team is accepting sign-ups, that there is no salary but there is a share in the earnings. I wonder if the team expenses would eat up all our profits and we'd not earn anything. I tell my sister "pass" (on the offer) and hang up the phone.

+ kitchen, steak (skirt [round], filet, third type on circular spit), ovens, cut-off switch, water on floor [DS] (sand, sponge), outside/glide inside [DS] snow on ground glide back and forth like on ice, floor is white I'm waving to wife as I glide

+ city B (food, beverage), maybe city SJ can be like B eventually

+ bus, put stick thing out back door so can throw things there and will stick, should practice, (keys), standing holding driver pauses look into neighborhood in hills see distances, only the steep plots don't have houses [DR] see steep plot construction, point out to son (LOOK AT THAT!), construction guys there see us pointing and start dancing I say "wiggle!" they're chiseling out gourmet kitchen sink from stone son S2 goes picks up stone hits it with a baseball bat over the ridge, my dad is there hope he doesn't get hit by it

WBTB, 2-ish hours

+ LD#198, I realize I'm dreaming, I'm in the dark, I do several nose pinches and can breathe, I figure that my dream eyes are closed so I plan to force them open, I wonder what I'll see, what sort of random scene, I do this and I do see something but there is a transition afterwards, wake or lose lucidity

+ in a school room with teacher, reading math problems on pieces of paper, someone criticizes the teacher and he responds.

+ riding in a car/limo with several black guys then they make room for several black girls, we're pushed closely together, we're on the way to some club.

Spoiler for sort of sexy time:

I'm trying to get my right hand under the butt of the girl on my right but we're so tightly spaced that I can't get my hand in there and I feel a bit self-conscious about trying this so I pull my hand back up and put it on the top of her leg and caress it while we're driving. I wonder if I'll have to pay her to do this, and wonder what the length of ride to the club is. If the charge is $6/minute and the ride takes 6 minutes I'll have to pay $36, which I think is fine, I'll just give her an even $40

More dreams, fairly detailed, but after about 8 hours of dreaming the recall becomes vague, also: woken by phone call

early:
+(f) sitting in the car with all the cousins, I'm looking around amazed because it has been such a long time since we've been on a road trip like this

later:
+(f) outside? doing something with very tall poles disappearing up into the sky (tall ceiling?) There is a moving metal chute attached to the poles, and I'm looking up at it wondering why it doesn't fall down, it is leaning away from the pole. On another pole the metal chute seems attached better.

+ outdoors, lots of activity all around. A (helicopter?) flies overhead and a bunch of skiers jump out of it. They're using their skis as parachutes to slow their desent, and so their skies are up in the air and their heads are facing the ground as they fall. They are falling into a little ravine/steep hill that allows them to turn upright and touch their skis down to the ground and get to skiing down the slope.

early:
+(f) some (people?) off in the distance, I come into a courtyard and enter into a room that has a soaking wet towel on the ground amidst a pool of water, and I'm hesitant to step on it [woken by wife snoring]

later:
+ [vivid, detailed]: on a farm, standing on a patio overlooking the fields. The farmer is to my left, I observe his (son?) going out into the fields. He goes into a grove of trees in order to get some farming equipment and I'm thinking that's a really long way to go to get and put back the equipment. He comes riding on a piece of farming machinery like a tractor. He's driving around back and forth on the thing, it has a huge roller on it with spikes that creates large divots in the ground kind of like a lawn aerator. There's a small animal like a dog or cat and it's running around the tractor and I'm concerned that it will get run over and the farmer and I are (trying to warn the driver of the tractor?). Then the tractor is a multi-legged "stomping" thing with about 6-8 legs on a side, mechanical legs and retract up and thrust down into the dirt. It is being used to break up the stiff dirt into soft dirt. Then the driver is walking in deep, wet mud with his own legs to break up the stiff turf.

I'm talking to the farmer and he's saying I'll need to be sleeping out in the fields. This doesn't bother me but I say I'll need more pillows, about 3-4 more. He wonders why I need so many, and I explain that I need 3-4 pillows in order to account for my bad back in order to prevent my back from sagging in the bed.

I'm walking up a hill past the farm and looking at the roads leading away. The (farmer?) is standing with me and points to one of the roads indicating that that's the one that people ride down. I start to correct him that I don't recognize the road but then I look and "remember" it, and I notice that there are a lot of people skating (skateboards) and boarding (snowboards, but no snow) down the road and hopping off of jumps and heading down the hill off the road. I start riding back down the rough asphalt road we're standing on, on a skateboard, back down the gentle slope towards the farm. I'm intently watching the road surface, there are some (not very deep) uneven places, potholes and exposed pipes that I'm riding over. I'm a bit concerned about falling with the speed I'm going and losing skin on the asphalt. I'm zig zagging to bleed off some speed. I eventually end up back in the farm house and I'm thinking there is some way to continuously skate back up to the top of the hill and keep on going. I'm thinking my legs are tired from all that standing on the skateboard.

+ very vivid: I'm in CH neighborhood, flying/floating/jumping on to the roof of a huge cement cube/building. There are dense areas of 2" nails sticking up from the cement and I have to choose my footing carefully. I'm looking off into the distance at the base of the hill going up S street and I'm looking for (opponents?). Some opponents come flying at me and I have to bat/push them away a few times.

+ (f) in the gym?

+ (f) top bunk of a bunk bed?

bedtime 21:00

02:00

+ outside, we sold something and got a big pile of cash which I set in a satchel. Two guys walk by and I see one guy give a quick hand movement and I know he stole our stuff. They're trying to walk away quickly but I block them and loudly accuse them of the theft, they deny, I shout "I SAW YOU take it" and yell for my friends to come and help get the money back. There's a scuffle, we move around and eventually grab the money back. I run for my car and yell at my companions "GET IN! GET IN! HURRY!" and they get in and I speed away. But then I need to walk through customs, and I see the agents there and recognize them (that were the ones who stole our cash?) at the border they're interviewing everybody who's taking (encryption technology?) out of the country and that's what we're doing too. They're talking to one guy and they're asking him why his hair is cut in that particular way, and they say they're gathering detailed information about the people who are doing this. I know they don't know me so I should go ahead to the next checkpoint on my own and hopefully because I'm an unknown, they'll let me go through.

WBTB @ 02:00
dufus talking so loudly outside my room that he woke me through my earplugs and I locked myself out of my room stepping out to tell him to be quiet, said "you gotta be kidding me, this is bad, UNLESS I'm dreaming..." did an RC, swore another oath, and then had to walk to the front office to get another key in bare feet

Up until about 04:00 - 04:30, then BTS

+ I'm walking with a few people going somewhere, we're walking in sand. I look to the right and there's an opening and there are palm trees there. I notice that one tree has a huge trunk, 4-5 meters in diameter. As we continue walking I notice that the shape of that tree is very strange: elliptical, wide in one dimension and narrow in the other. I point this out to my friends "Hey, look at that weird tree!" and I'm trying to think of the shape name (eliptical).
We stop on the sand to talk, and a woman comes and stands right in our midst and starts changing her clothes, I'm a bit annoyed by this.

Later, I'm with my wife. I'm giving her a passionate kiss. But she's talking about some other man. She's saying that she doesn't go be with him because he has some disadvantages that prevent her from being with him. This hurts me as I think the reason isn't simply that she loves me, but that she likes him less.

+ [vivid]riding motorcycle in a parking garage
I climb on my motorcycle and open some (glass?) doors and roll out onto the ramp of a parking garage. I'm driving and leaning in to the turns and sometimes turn wide. I stop on a downwards ramp stuck in traffic. A huge black SUV comes up and lightly pushes me a few inches, I feel the movement and look backwards in annoyance, the SUV driver says something?

WBTB 1hr, BTS ~ 1hr

vague scenes:

+(f) in a student/shared house, wrappers, garbage, food around, some girls?

+(f) in a team using a camera, we're observing something on the level below us

+(f) jumping on a giant trampoline, also a team-based event

+(f) sitting at a table with people?

+ [long, vivid] mansion epic
Driving/moving with friends. We're going by some large mansions on our right. I pretend to be a real estate agent showing off the mansions as for sale even though they are not. Some of them are in severely deteriorated conditions with peeling paint. In a car stopping on the side of the street, limosine, the rich guys in the back seat talk to 2 guys standing on the sidewalk, they exchange a few words about the house and we go on.

Near the house I remark that it has a custom-built church tower. Then me and one of the rich guys and someone else are up in the cramped tower. We're lying down on the ground on one level. It's like a multi-level children's play house, very small. I'm pointing out where the trap door is to the level above, where (an animal?) is hiding. The guy opens the trap door and an eaten ear of corn falls down. An animal races down and is trapped on the next level below, the guy says we can push down on the floor and squish it, I say "NO, don't kill it!"

Inside the living room of the rich house (which is not ours) I'm still showing it to the rich guys as if it were for sale. At one point I start playing a video game being projected on one of the walls of the living room. My face is right up against the wall. It's a space game and the little ships that I need to maneuver around are hard to see because there is a lot of light and glare coming from the room. I say for people to turn down the lights so there's less glare. The light comes down and I notice the screen with the game has moved to another wall (monitor?) and I decide it's OK to stop playing.

We're talking about this (these) mansion houses. I'm trying to get in a word but people keep talking over me and not listening. I'm trying to say that I remember that I've sample some of the sumptuous bath tubs in the house and they're amazing.

At one point another buyer guy comes in to the living room and says why don't we split the cost of the house. The original guy says no, he is not interested in joint ownership.

Outside, we're talking about the cost of the house. One guy is saying that he can't afford maintenance on this place, that he'd have to cut down the size of it because he can't afford 5,000 (50,000?) gallons of paint to cover it.

One guy is asking another guy how he managed to afford his place. "You have 'Man's Dream 1' will you use it to finance 'Man's Dream 2'?"

+ opel/chess/sleeping bag
There is a white Opel parked on the street, I have a hovering view about 15 feet away, I recognize it as potentially our old family car when I was growing up. There is a man sleeping in it, he has pulled a "blanket" over himself consisting of heavy construction paper/material rolled out going from the dashboard to the back of the hatchback, to cover the sun so he can sleep.

I'm in my car, I'm cold, I'm pulling my green down mummy bag sleeping back on top of me like a blanket and I'm thinking about down as an insulating material.

I visualize a chess board (flat, as if on a computer screen) and I'm planning my move. Black is my opponent. His king is exposed still in an uncastled position. I'm looking for check double attacks that I can use to win material. I think I see a black knight on the right side of the board around f/g 3/4 that I can win with a check. I also note my a-file rook is pinning a black pawn that has moved to the black a-file rook and I can take his rook if that pawn moves. I continue looking at central attacking possibilities due to black's exposed and centralized king.

+ scouts in park at night
I'm with a boy scout troop camping in a large city park at night. I'm walking and talking with one scout and looking up at the night sky. There are stars visible there, but they're faint. I explain this by saying there are some clouds, and the lights from the city are preventing a clearer night sky.

We're talking about sleeping locations, it's not hard to find good spots because of all the flat places on the ground.

A tree branch is poking directly into my eye. I'm trying to move backwards and away from it but it continues to poke my eye. Eventually I get away from it. I look up and pluck a ripe walnut from the tree. I open it easily and I pick out the meat and start eating it. I look up at the tree it is covered by dark pod hanging down, others come to pick the walnuts.

+ lego / mom
A young scout patrol member is being praised for stepping up to the role of patrol leader. He is reading the rules of lego / D&D, there is a little miniature rule book. There is a table full of lego, lego is organized into generations of different kinds of pieces. The pieces on the table in front of us are fairly early, of the Star Wars type. I start playing with it, picking up one plane and flying around making "Boy Noise" (Vroooom! ). I notice out in the hallway (this is in my CH bedroom) that my mother walks by the door. I want to play but feel compelled to go spend time with my mom. I walk behind her as she goes down the stairs to the first floor. I hear my dad say "I don't which I should ask you about: if your knee still hurts or if you need to pee?" I now want to ask if her knee still hurts. She turns to show me the apparatus attached to her feet. She's sitting in a wheel chair. My left foot gets caught in the fabric wrapped around her right leg and I hop on my right foot as her chair continues to roll backwards. She's talking about the pins in her feet? I see that each foot is in a sort of medical metallic cage, the bottom platform is covered with little pins, head up.

+ tennis training
DO, overhead (about 20 feet up and a bit to the back) looking down on a tennis training session. About a dozen students are lined up in a row, each one with an instructor (or two) in front of them. They are all performing the same drill: the instructor bounces a tennis ball really hard off of the ground, and the students must do a two-handed grip on their racquet, and smash the ball back down into the ground right in front of them. I think what's the point of that since they'd lose the point. Then I realize they must be practicing for overhead smashes at the net.

+ ice/bomb
I see a white tube going down into the ground. Then I see another one, but it is almost completely filled with water, and it has a funnel top about 1-2 feet in diameter. I'm walking along the ground and I notice things under the ground. One place has buried huge ice cubes about 1-2 meters on a side under the ground. There is another building with a control center in it and guys working the controls, there is talk of a rebellion and setting off a bomb, but there is a poster on the wall about how the authorities (some name) know about them. I climb down the outside of this bunker, lowering myself to the ground and breaking my fall by holding on to the edge of the bunkers as I go down.

BTS

+ train/Jack/weird ties
(maneuvering and driving in cars, backing up, police cars? vague).
There is a train stopped at a crossing. We're waiting for another train. I wonder if the other train is really small to be able to fit on the small side tracks nearby. No the other train is 80 cars and coming on a parallel track. Are we going to be unloading from our train to theirs? The other train arrives I get on to a car with some others. "Jack" is managing this entire thing and the other train will be going to Florida.

There is a lot of equipment strapped to holding pockets on the wall, we need to unpack it and set it up. It is really confusing. Do we set up these strapped hooks on the inside or the outside of the train car? Will they be used to hold firewood for feeding the fires while we go? I put some a hook apparatus tentatively in one of the pockets in the wall.

I'm shirtless in the car, there are some girls there, the car is moving/bouncing and I'm flexing my abs and wonder if they'd find me attractive even though I"m older.

The train car starts moving and I'm concerned that Jack may not be able to find us, I move through the inter-car doors ahead to see why we're moving. I glance down and see a children's picture book.

+ camping on cliff, talk to scoutmaster DG, ask about his sons J and G, see my mom sitting there and I think I should be talking to her but I started talking to DG first.

+(f) in a group, on the outside table there are a few pieces of slightly stale pepperoni left over from a pizza and I eat one

+ swirling fast descent on an icy road including loop-de-loops, end by crasing through a fence

+ LD#194 in some sort of month-long retreat location, sitting with two middle aged but attractive women, I think I"ll probably sleep with both of them by the end of the retreat. I have to leave, and return to another place, I'm getting a ride there. I walk up a hill and turn to the left and BOOM, there's an amazing vista opening up over a huuuuge valley far below stretching for maybe 20 miles out before me, including a road down blow me wandering through the hills that is the one I was going to travel on to my destination. "OH!" I say in shock at the vista. And I think "I can just fly there ". I'm pretty sure I can fly, and that I'm dreaming I lean out over space and take off flying and do a nose pinch and confirm I"m dreaming. <more flight detail later>
At the top of the mountain I lose lucidity among the tourist groups. ending with "give us a kiss, love" girl (tweak nipple with lips then light kiss, the tweak is required with her I recall, I feel like I'm quite a playa) and the child racer who was #2 but now is #1 because the former #1 it turns out has just a vagina so he had to quit and his friends are telling him to open it up and look inside and see if he has a penis in there.

+ flying into a strip-mall building feet-first through a narrow trellace (showing off?), I walk through a wall and follow two male voices which are talking about (pork sandwiches?) I open my eyes and I"m following them and their moving away from me, one looks like and comes into focus as my best friend DD from Jr. High. Super high res visualization, and it is him, perfect in face, hair, etc. I go to give him a hug it's been so long he's a bit hesitant at first but them comes into the hug. I say "What's been up with you?" He says "2015 was a hard year, <some more>"


+ motorcycle in house in CH, I need to pack it up and take it somewhere, which car should I put it in? My old clunky FF or my newer one, they're both small though. Out on the street with my motorcycle I heft it up to see how heavy it is and to see if I can lift it into the car at all. I think it'll be heavy but I get it off the ground without much trouble. I ride it down my steep CH driveway into the garage there riding the breaks so I don't go too fast.

+ LD#195 leaving area with family and kids, their slow, people behind are getting mad at the delay, I signal out the back of my car and say "you'll just WAIT for my family!" on main road the guy is following us and I'm looking out the back of our car window (sitting in back seat) at him, he looses control, crashes into a fence on the side of the road, and is rolling himself on the road. HAH, I thnk, that's what you get! Our car takes off flying. The guy on the road himself takes off flying and follows us into the air. I think "WTF!? How can he do that, unless......<nose pinch>, I'm dreaming..
I start trying to shoot laser/energy bolts at the guy, but I see nothing come out. I shout to my friends in the car, "come on, shoot lasers at this guy!" but they don't. I feel confined inside this car, and I jump up through the roof and out into the air. I land on the ground and there are some girls around and I decide it's time for a bit of sexy fun. Pull one girl's pants down, stay in the dream by looking around every few seconds, pull another one, and while I'm trying to push myself up to look around

I actually move my waking body in bed and am awake.

family stress at bedtime. 2mg melatonin, but it turns out I probably didn't need it as I fell asleep quickly anyway

early:
+ I'm DO at first hovering over a view of a high snowy ridge and collapsing snowy stone bridges between peaks. A character jumps and lands on the other side and the bridge collapses. My view shifts to a bridge leading the other way behind me, and someone says "Nobody has ever made it going this way! S*&T! We're F^&*ED!". I'm on the ground now. We're climbing up a very snowy mound, it's steep and the snow is soft and fluffy. In front of us a small brown shape is in the snow. Someone says "just move that poop out of the way and let's go forwards!" The guy in front doesn't want to touch it. He then picks it up and tosses it down on to steep icy hill leading down to a waterfall on our left. It turns out it was not poop, but a long caramel pop on a stick. The caramel pop slides down and lodges under a rock overhang just above the icy river/waterfall. Some (kid?) in our group jumps down after it, and I say "Oh, great!" and jump and slide down after him. The caramel pop falls behind the overhang in a dangerous position. My feet are getting wet and I feel the cold. I carefully reach around the rock outcropping and pick up the pop and toss it back up the hill a bit. Then all of our group is taking turns on the caramel pop. I grab it and push it in and out of my mouth, tasting the sweet flavor.

+ I'm standing with someone (wife?) inside, looking outside to large open area including one side of large stadium seating far to my right, pointing to an open field in front of me. The stands are empty. But I "know" that (cadet students?) sit there to watch sporting events on the field. On the ground level in between the stadium seating and the field, is a covered terrace. I know that I have participated in a ceremony on that terrace. I accompanied a young lovely girl there, and sat with her in the stands.

mid:

+ grief on the rainy hillside
I'm standing about 6 feet below the ridgeline on a long steep hill, mostly dirt but there is a small clump of trees to my right and a larger clumb about 15 feet in front of me. Down at the bottom of the hill is a line of trees, and I know that beyond the line of trees is a river. I'm imagining a system of buckets on lines dipping down into the river, and being raise up to the top of the hill I'm standing on, where they can be used/poured out. It starts to rain. I look around me and my/our belongings are strewn around the immediate area and are starting to get wet. I'll have to pack up, now. The rain gets harder, and I'm hurrying to pick my stuff up. I look down and see our cat L about 10 feet away sitting on the hillside looking at me. I take several big steps down the hill to get her and the dirt starts a small landslide, pushing my cat away, but I lunch for her and grab her by the collar and the scruff of her neck and place her on my shoulder, right among that lower clump of trees.
Just below the trees a man plops down face down on the dirt, and a large splat of blood is under his face. I think his eyes are bleeding. I call out to my wife, "I see your dad here!" My wife is with me, and her father plops down again in between us, sort of splurts/coughs and a huge splat of blood covers the area under him. My wife tells me in a heavy voice "our son S2 is gone! Gone forever! Overdose of Kool-Aid "Zip" (which I know to be a candy flavored drug). I'm stunned. I say "Our S2? Gone forever?" I try to think when I last spoke to him, and think we'll never again see him. I am overcome with unimaginable pain.

I wake up and it takes me a long time to calm down, with a pain in my heart. I think dream practice would suck if dreams were all like that.

get up and work for a few hours, make & eat breakfast. Then BTB and BTS pretty easily since I'm feeling quite drowsy/tired again.

+ turkey jerky
I'm standing in some large open office area with a square counter set in the middle, stairs lead down to the left, sort of like a large public library. The woman at the counter asks me if I've received my complimentary replacement shipment of 2 packages of turkey jerky. I have not received it and say so. She calls a man over to help me with the order? Don't recall anything after that.

+ nudist colony
A young woman is leading me through a series of doors and rooms. This is a nudist colony, and she's directing me to the swimming pool. I think (say?) that a nude swim would be wonderful and refreshing. I'm noticing that there are nude women sitting to the sides of the rooms, I see just their backs, a couple are in a hot tub on the left. As I walk past them I think there's probably a lot of free and open sex here. I walk up to one sitting girl and get bold and

Spoiler for sexy encounter:

whip it out and it dangles in front of her face, she opens her mouth and follows the swinging with her head in order to finally lead it in and starts a BJ

and I wake up. Probably lucid at the very end.

+ long non-lucid sex
... walking along somewhere in a group, a window at eye level appears on the right in a wall, I look in and catch a glimpse of a pretty girl. I stop, enter through the raised door in the wall, step up and go in, turn to the left and there's the girl.

Spoiler for sexy encounter,:

Long BJ, dominant/rough at times. At one point I lean down over her back, reach down her back in between her cheeks and insert a finger inside her (ahem). It's so tight it barely goes in, it's amazingly tight. I think I need to try that so left her up and initiate intercourse. It sort of fits but it's so right that it just doesn't quite go in. I'm moving her up and down to work it in, and finally it does go in a bit deeper. I reach around and hunt for the back alley entrance and stick a finger up there and feel it there for a bit.

+(f) weird dark witch scene
Dark building, freaky faced witch to the side.

+ pickpocket
I'm walking in a crowded outdoor area with lots of people and I feel a tugging at my left hand. I look down and see a guy running off from me, I'm holding my wife's bag/backpack in my hand and he just obviously tried to pick it. I look at him he seems vaguely Asian. Then I keep looking and I see two more guys, one a white guy who is looking back at me while he runs away and I "recognize" him [FALSE] as a pickpocket I've encountered before. I'm starting to run after them then I call out to the crowd in a foreign language "STop, thieves!" I think a better word to use is 'catch' so I call out "Catch them, thieves! thieves! They tried to steal my wallet!" and I see ahead of me some people are coming out of a (restaurant) and surrounding the guys and catching them. I run up to the group, where about 4-5 beefy young men have surrounded and bound the thieves (in what looks like large doggy circular no-scratch head shields). All the guys, thieves and catchers, have strange, slightly deformed faces, like droopy eyes or very bad uneven teeth. The catcher to my right indicates that the are an (undercover squad?) trained in capture, he's proud they caught them. I say in a foregin language, "thank you! they would have stolen my wife's ..." and I wonder what they would have stolen. I open up her bad and look inside and see several small things, including a portion of her broken gold watch bracelet/chain. I say if they had gotten that it would have been a real blow!

+ pool/girls

+ room & candles

+ work: meeting, food table, take pasta home even through supposed to pay

+ talk to old guy former colleague asking why I'm here visiting a competitor, I say "you have to keep your contacts current! Meet people, go to lunch. I've been working 20-25 years, and you've been working for like 50 (oops, that may hurt hi feelings

+ cosmetic counter, 2 beautiful clerk girls wearing amazing colorful outfits, I'm standing at the counter admiring them, and admiring their outfits. They are modeling the outfits which are for sale. One is a two-piece top and shorts combo in a green silk-like material, showing off her body nicely. The other one is a shimmering rainbow dress. I want the green two-piece girl to come over to me so I can see her closely. She does not come. I walk to the left around another customer to stand in front of her. She takes out a hand cream and is going to give me a sample. She pours a HUGE pile of it onto her hand, a giant pancake of it, and takes my two hands and smears the cream all over the palms of my hands, then the back of my hands.

As I walk away I'm wiping my hands and think if I need hold something like an axe or something with a handle like a weapon, it will slip out of my grasp

+ LD#193 I'm walking and I look down and feel/see that my pants are loose. I put my hands on to the top of my pants and flap them around a little bit, seeing how loose they are. Then it hits me: MY BAG IS GONE. Could it take been taken off of me by somewhen when I was sleeping?. I run back where I was before. I see my bag sitting on the top of a buffet/desk. I put it on. I look down and see that IT IS EMPTY. I freak out. I start running. I say/think "IT HAS FINALLY HAPPENED, I'VE LOST MY WALLET and PASSPORT, I'M SCREWED!" I'm running towards the main entrance but think that there's no hope, the thieves are probably long gone. I have only one hope, and that is if I'm dreaming. I reach up for a nose pinch.

I CAN BREATHE. YES, I'm dreaming. OMG what a relief. I stop running, and do 2-3 more nose pinches. I become aware of my surroundings, indoors in a mostly dark huge open space, the walls are very far away. I look at my right hand and it is translucent and I have fractal fingers growing out of the main fingers. I think about doing some meditation in the dream. I hear voices from far away, there is a wall 100 feet away or so, I head in that direction. I think it's taking too much time to travel by "walking." I continue to hear the voices and I see then a door/opening in the wall and catch a glimpse of people moving inside.

Then I'm past the wall and standing in another huge open area, no ceiling visible, but this is brightly lit, and there is a dance/exercise class going on. I'm standing at the front with all the class members (about 30 people in rows) in front of me. I look at them while I walk into the crowd. Vision is slanted at first, and distorted, like I'm looking through a strange lens. I walk up to a girl, and see more girls in the crowd but I choose this one. They're dancing, doing aerobics, moving in place. I get an idea to stop time and I snap my right fingers and will time to stop for them. They all stop, but they're not frozen like time is actually stopped, but that they're rather pretending to be stopped.

Spoiler for sexual situation:

I'm standing in front of the girl and she has attractive, open cleavage from a loose top, and I reach both hands in under her top to massage her breasts. She sort of stumbles to her left (my right) like she's losing her balance. I see her breasts and feel them. I say "You're time frozen, don't move". I look at her for a few seconds then

I wake up.

+(f) visiting the people who (invented?) volleying in tennis?

+ in a bar with friends. There is some intrigue going on, I'm walking back to our table, and I'm holding a (larger than a hand) strip of photos covered in plastic and I'm folding this and putting it away. The husband is talking to the wife and I think I have a secret (affair?) with the wife and I'm thinking "don't say it, don't say it" but she does and he gets really mad and I go to another room.

A strange thing with people who have left? Left some things behind, like a shoe, a wallet/bag, I pick them up and take them with me. One of the guys is Dwight Schrute from The Office.

+ [long, vivid, very semi-lucid/ weak lucid] walking night AH, take of flying, shine my "summon friend signal" flashlight into the sky but the enemies see it and come flying after me. We fight in the air, I have my lightsaber out and I'm turning it on and off, adjusting the length of the blade by pressing the rocker switch once, twice. I'm not feeling any feedback when I swing the blade through enemies, so I do it again, this time imagining resistance and sound. I get light resistance. Continuing to fly/fall down, the world is now entirely cartoon-colored. Bright colors. I think I'm back in a cartoon (dream?) eventually. I land and continue fighting with my lightsabre. I enter a room and there is a guy in there with his own pseudo-lightsaber, hooked up to some machine? With cables? I'm going at it with him and he's rejecting that I hit him, and he keeps on fighting, I reject his rejection and strike him again.

At the end I'm climbing up on to some very high platform where a large air vehicle has landed with the Big Leader. I'm walking with the Big Leader into a large hangar, and he has a very important piece of technology that he wants me to examine and study/report on. We walk up to it and I see it lying on the ground: it is the fighting equipment from the last guy I fought. The last view of the dream is me looking down on the hoses and things and laughing to myself, thinking this is like a funny/ironic end to a movie.

earlier:

+(f) with friends, inside one guy's house, go outside, then into another entrance

later:

+ [vivid] taping up the chair to block the entrance. Some other guys in the group have just placed a few pieces of tape bent at right angles sticking up from the back of another chair placed across an entrance. I'm rolling the tape around and around the chair. There is some conversation [forgotten] relating to what we're doing

+ Walking with a (maitre d'?) through a very narrow restaurant with people sitting to each side by the walls. We reach the door at the end of the room leading to the outside, and I think the maitre d' wants me to open the windows on both sides as I go out. I'm not sure the people sitting there will like it because people from this country do not like feeling drafts from open windows.

Another room? An end room with windows to the outside, there is a beautiful girl sitting here. I think I recognize her from earlier [day residue]. She is talking about wine. I think about wine, and say something about bouuet or taste of wine, and think they're all drinking white, but what if it were red? She is addressing me about something but I don't understand what she's saying. It turns out to be a something about a recipe (to and Asian dish of some sort?) and she is listing ingredients.
