FryingMan

earlier:

+ (f) on a race-track? Zipping around, there are large distances involved, I see a giant horse-head (like a chess knight)?

later:

+ walking on roads/paths, I see a sign on a downhill path labelled "for sh ->" (programming shell), enter home, I'm leaving through back stairs leading back up to road, woman of the house speaks to me and we realize that she knows my son S2.

+ enter a house, (DO?) a guy goes into the kitchen and uses a strange tool to quickly pick/get the template of the lock on the kitchen door, and runs outside, before the woman in the kitchen sees him

+(f) some old Chinese guy in a canoe?

+ in a house/room talking with people/friends. A woman is pregnant. I'm stepping on the floor and notice a loose tile. I bend down to look and it's a large cube-shaped brick that's loose in the floor because it's sitting on top of crumpled up newspaper underneath. I'm saying "but are there any restrictions/problems with being close to the wi-fi radiation (for the pregnant woman)?"

+ in an office/cube setting, I'm talking to a guy there and say "wouldn't it be great if there was an entire wi-fi free area, so that we wouldn't be subject to the radiation?" They're planning some conference and marketing girls are walking around with big handfuls of ribbons. I ignore this and turn to my terminal/screen, start to log in, and think about playing some game.

+ [vivid, present] outdoors/daylight, walking up an uphill curving path with two other guys, one is a CEO (of company N?) and another guy is an older visitor. The older visitor starts breathing very very heavily, wheezing almost, like this is an extreme exertion for him. It's quite loud and distracting and I think that guy is in terrible shape, all my attention is on the horrible sound of this guy's labored breathing. We reach a sharp switchback on the trail and I look down and see that part of the path is made out of a 4-5" diameter PVC pipe embedded in the ground, the peak of the pipe sticks up and makes a slipper foothold if you walk just on this part, and I say so. The CEO guy says his legs got really tired by squatting for a long time by the side of the path.

+ [vivid, present] some sort of old-west "steampunk" environment, indoors, half-lit, there's a woman on a podium dressed up thematically and dramatically, some narration about her. Then a snake-oil salesman type sitting on a buggy starts his pitch. He talks a lot, a constant stream of chatter. He's talking about the benefits of marijuana. He reaches down into a pouch low on the coach below his feet and takes out a handful of the "weed." It actually looks like a handful of small pine branches. He says something about "fathers and daughters and uncles and nieces." He then bends the handful of branches in half and holds them tightly, and lights one end (the end which is mostly sticks) and offers it as a free demo. He says the cost of this would be $500. My (wife?) is near me and I know she would disapprove, but I take a toke anyway. I blow on the end to get the fire a bit higher, smoke is starting to emerge from the front of the pile of (pine-weed). I take one deep breath in (get a bit of smoke), exhale, then put my mouth on the front of the pine-weed and take a deep inhale of the smoke. I hold my breath for about 10 seconds and then exhale strongly.

This kind of night makes all the day work worthwhile. Not a great deal of lucidity, but some lucid moments, but fun Fun FUN dreams: flying, sexy moments, dueling, magic powers, weird/bizarre things/sights, just chock full of awesomeness!

early:

+ library, librarian unlocks collection of super rare books, the last in the world, "it's like Farenheit 451" as I caress the large, square, thin books.

+ freeway path gets progressively rougher. Sandy, hills, bumpy. They're doing construction on the road while we're driving on it. Large machines are stamping the sand in front of us. Then they turn into tall skinny naked male giants with huge flat feet and hairy butts which are fiercely stamping down the sand as we walk behind them. I don't like being so close to their hairy and smelly butts [don't actually smell anything]

+ SuBu, hold, stomach, sits chair, look in her fridge, empty but lots of stuff for making sandwiches; book report: I must gather oil from the pages (accumulated over years of fingers touching them), must scrape the oil off with something with a long thin edge like a ruler, I ask for an empty bottle with a stopper to gather this oil, I think this will take forever to gather together by scraping it off the pages.

WBTB

middle:

+ (LD#150) in office, people are gathering boxes, packing up their offices to leave, I look for the pile of flattened cardboard boxes, see a small pre-assembled boxes (sized for video tapes), keep looking, find pile of flattened boxes, pick up some (are missing some of the flaps?). Head back to my office. Catch sight of a pretty blonde girl sitting to the left among the offices/cubes. Something goes "zing!"and I'm (weakly) lucid as I walk over to her, bend over, and plant a kiss on her lips. Signature "lip pulling" as I stand up, feeling the contact, amazed at the sensations that a dream can produce. I then imagine I'd like some attention from her and sit down and bring her over
but it's vague from there, lose lucidity, or just transitions.

+ on bus S2 cracks tasteless joke, I'm sitting in middle row of bus, girl in the front (dark, middle-eastern looking with short dark hair) laughs. Turn back to look at S2 he's surrounded by girls on the seats all around, the bus is full; girl on bus playing with barbie-like dolls: one in each hand, she looks really intense, and plays like one of the barbies is shooting the other one, and shakes the hand of the shooting barbie and makes boy-noise gun sounds: "tut tut tut tut!…"; the bus is approaching the big stadium (university?), I think the driver should get much closer before he lets us off.

+ batteries outside of store, I'm working in front of the steps, blocking left entrance, a woman tries to go by, I say just use the right door. Guys sitting to my left, they say "I fucking hate batteries." I look down and I'm working on some electronics project with a lot of batteries, I echo shortly thereafter "I fucking hate batteries."

+ (vague, impressions, fragment) playing squash, serving, changing service boxes, lose count of score, playing a few points

+ I'm in a car, sitting on the front passenger seat. Then there are two investigators there standing also in the passenger seat area, rifling through the contents of the glove compartment, I'm in trouble for something I'm stashing in there? Wake up and relieved that my life is not ruined.

+ In some area with a girl dressed only in panties and a bra, maneuvering along a seated/bench (sort of like a car front seat? Related to above scene probably). In the left compartment is her stuff included her graded papers, in the right compartment is my secret stuff and I don't want her digging around in there. We're exchanging positions shuffling by each other closely and I say "don't worry I'm not trying to touch you" or something like that. I do notice her sexy butt in those patterned panties and wonder if maybe I should...

late:

+ (semi) high on cliff over rich beach houses (hundreds of feet blow), I think I should return to this spot in future dreams. I fly/dive down to a high patio on one house, the patio is empty of people, but I see a big party going on on ground floor, jump down, move to hostess,

Spoiler for sexy time, don't read if you don't like explicit descriptions:

and catch a glimpse of the nipple of her right breast through an opening in her outfit -- she's wearing a sleeveless dress. I move right up to her and grab her right breast and take it out of her dress. I'm holding it in my hand and get a good like at it, it's a lovely breast. I then give it a quick kiss/suck on the nipple, and wonder if she's going to be embarrassed about being exposed with these people around

, I pull back and hold her in my arms and I'm walking backwards through the party main room, I'm giving her quick kisses and asking her something like "did he kiss you like this?" but she never answers. I do this until we reach the far edge of the room and then stop and talk to some people.

Spoiler for sexy contents, don't read if you don't like explicit descriptions:

I realize that I've just ejaculated (masturbation) sitting on some place. There are some people (guys) to my left and right. I look down on the floor and see my stuff there floating in a layer of water, and I reach down and swirl the water around to disperse it. I also see that I've landed a good bit of it on a knitted blanket, which I then push down into the water to rinse off.

The blanket is now all wet in my hands, and I pull it up out of the water and mention to the guy to my right, "don't worry, it'll dry out quickly."

I head outside: we're near the coast of the ocean, there is fairly heavy flog/clouds but there are some breaks showing sun/blue sky, and I think that I should fly up through it to determine how thick it is.

+ magic: create mac 'n cheese factory
I'm walking by some (kids?) and someone kicks a couple of plastic gallon milk jugs, one of them floats up in the air and I immediately use my TK power with a hand gesture to "push it into space". It starts going really high and far away. Then I'm working with it in the air above me, trying to force it to become brighter (and hotter?), it is a sort of blue and gold lattice. I decide I should make the golden stuff into mac 'n cheese sauce, which starts dripping down. I call for the kids to come and eat it. Then the whole thing changes into a floating factory with whirring gears that automatically makes mac 'n cheese and dispenses it down a conveyor belt.

+ duel, "I'm old enough to Shreve!"
In some building, some vague moments with people I'm in conflict with. Move around to different rooms. Leave, then return. It's a deserted looking industrial building. I look to the far side of the room and expect a platform elevator to descend. Instead, it comes falling down quickly and crashes in to the floor, and an oldish man falls off, he appears dead. I say "Mormont's dead!" (I think he's my father?).

Outside on the street a young man wearing armor jumps down and confronts me. He says "I'm not too young to Shreve!" (I think this means killing a family member). He's killed father. I pull out my sword. He is standing over me and is wielding a white makeshift mace with many spikes on it. We engage. I block the mace and take many slashing blows at him. In between our clashes I lunch forwards and stab him solidly with the point of my blade, this will cause wounds that will gradually wear him down. He's not hitting me. I think that he has become frozen (?) and I start hacking at his arms and hands and it's like hitting thick ice, little pieces slowly chip away. At one point we're scrambling up onto a raised platform and I loose the grip on my weapon which at this point is like two round concentric shields. My opponent reaches for them but I manage to grab them back.

These all may have been from the same REM. It's unclear what the dream boundaries are, so I just separate them based on scene/plot differences.

+ guards shout me down for using my cell phone, apparently a friend and I were severely reprimanded earlier and got into trouble for using our phones. I'm upset at all this unnecessary fuss, get up and leave and see some girl by a door (using her phone? and say "but it's OK for her?"??)

+ movies are showing in two rooms. In this room there's a Star Wars satire. I think I catch a glimpse of a "minion" looking character on the screen.

+

Spoiler for explicit sexy time stuff. don't read if you don't like that sort of thing:

I'm with a girl, she's naked and standing over me, I'm seated, and she pushes her v-jay in my face and indicates that I should start giving it some attention. I oblige orally and pause after a bit to dirty talk with her, "you like that baby, you like how I <bleep> your <bleep>?" I think I should have a turn and imagine presenting my (ahem) to her for oral attention, but this seems like an in-dream imagination rather than actually doing it.

+ encounter girl on stairs: compliement her, she says "Thank You!", I think of "getting together", but then some authority figure comes and talks to her and nothing happens

+ semi-lucid superman flying. I'm outdoors in a farm-like setting in nature. I take off, and soon I fly right over the peaked roof of some building, and I run with my feet along the peak of the roof (there's a flat horizontal strip of metal/wood at the peak about 3-4 inches wide), I think while I do this I'm very stable and won't fall. Up ahead of me is a large tree, I'm flying quite slowly at this point and want to go faster, I thrust my fist forwards quickly for high speed flight, at first I'm still drifting towards the tree slowly, but in a few seconds speed picks up, and soon I'm flying at high speed over green farm fields below me; I do a barrel roll. Drawn to a distant hillside by a colorful beacon I see flashing underground (with super vision), to grave of the 2nd son of Krypton on earth. As I approach I hear a recording playing that says "Help me, Father! Father, help me!" over and over again on a phonograph buried in the tomb

In a room live with him, he was a jazz pianist but acquired a disease that deformed his hands so he can't play any more. His hands are drawn into tight fists, I look at them placed on the table in front of him. He can move then a little bit to show how he used to play on the piano. But he can play instruments like clarinet and sax. He's then standing up and plays some Dixieland jazz on the clarinet but he hides the instrument under a bandana so you can't see his knarled fingers while he plays.

+ on more stairs, I'm using tablet/laptop looking at racy pictures of girls, people come by and I try to blank the screen but can't. I'm sitting down in the stairwell with my back against the wall and some people come to talk to me?

+ I walk through a kitchen, see a stove, (there's my cat there?), I leave it through a small seated area back to a room where I started, there are two middle-aged women sitting at a table there, I move a low door out of my way and step gingerly over things in the tiny space, realize I went the wrong way and back out, closing the little sliding low "door" again, the women giggle and say something about me not needing to do that, I walk on.

Outside, I catch a glimpse through the window of a flash of fire in the kitchen I just walked out of. A bit later I look up and see a chimney on the room with a bit of fire flashing out, I think that's from the fire I saw in the window just a bit earlier.

My wife is arranging a group picture [IWL she always takes tons of pictures, telling people to pose, etc.]

+ (VERY vivid/present, "you mean that was a dream?!") I'm in a small building, looking out a first-floor window. A few meters outside the window is a pole with a 2-3 meter grey/black windsock on it. It it blowing in the wind. I'm watching it and thinking about how the wind fills it and blows it around. After a bit of watching it, a strong wind comes blowing from the left and fills the windsock and it is now blowing and pointing in a straight horizontal line to the right. I call out to people in the next room (to my left) that "There is a strong wind blowing from left to right, look!"

+ (f) church, priest, service, altar under a protruding "ceiling"

+ outside on steep slope, my cat is fat, because it is walking to a place where there is free food. I see an outdoor market (where food is on the ground?) besides me on the slope. My cat is behaving like something is stuck in its mouth. I think it's bones. I try to pull them out, and I take out a small segment of what looks like a fish spine of a small fish about half an inch long. I wonder if there are chicken bones in its mouth, too, but it appears to be just fish bones.

+ playing chess on a crowded dining table, it's my move, pull board to me, the table is quite crowded with plates and things and I have to push them aside first before I can reach for the board and start pulling it to me so I can make my move. Our fingers are dirty from the food we're eating, and the pieces have sticky bits of food residue on them, we'll have to clean them later. I get a look at the position and I'm confused, there are weird looking things on the board, a lots of what look like olive pits are all over the board. I ask what those are and my opponent says they're pawns. These olive pit "pawns" are everywhere, I don't remember them being there before. There are large clumps of them all along his 7th rank (my 2nd rank) about to be promoted. There are also a full row of them on his first rank. Now I know he's cheating because pawns can never be on the first rank. I say "there's no way! My queen is in the center of the board and I would never allow you to get so many pawns so close to promotion!" I'm quite upset at the cheating and we exchange angry words.

+ S2's girlfriend L is messing around with the airplane and we're getting concerned. I see myself(?) sitting under the airplane. I see that L is causing the propellers/engines to spin around, which are getting close to hitting my head. This could also damage the airplane. We run to the plan and stop her and roll the plane back to its proper place in the room.

+ pour myself a glass of champagne (or some sparkling beverage) in a quick gesture (wonder if it will foam over the rim of the glass but it doesn't, I stopped pouring soon enough) and drink it from a large champagne flute while sitting at a counter in a large, open atrium (in a casino?). A dumpy middle-aged woman with big blonde hairdo come and sits near me. She has some hair sticking out of her nose. I wonder if I should invite her to my room, I imagine being with her and it's not really an exciting prospect.

+ at the blackjack table, playing a hand. I'm sitting in the middle, directly across from the dealer. The guy next to me on my left says he's already seen 3 aces come out. I get dealt (face up) and ace. I think there can't be any more aces. I have a $10 chip in play. I take hits, I'm getting small cards, I'm trying to add up my hand. Soft 13? I get dealt 3 more aces. Still a soft total? No it's like hard 15 now. Hey, how can that be [so many aces], I ask the dealer how many decks we're playing with, he says "two," I say "ok that explains it." He deals me more cards. He's waiting for me to add up my hand. It's definitely over 21, I've busted. I bring out a $3,000 bill and say I want to change it for more chips. The dealer says "changing $100,000?" and I get a sinking/scared feeling in my stomach. No way, that's way too much money to be gambling. I look down and no it's just the $3,000 bill on the table. I tell the dealer I want it changed into half $10 and half $5 chips. The dealer is having problems figuring out how to do this change. I try to imagine how many $10 chips that would be, then to divide the amount in half and to double it to get the number of $5 chips. I think I should give this suggestion to the dealer. At some point I wonder what the minimum bet is at this table and I look around but I don't see the sign.

I imagine a guy doing a trick with his cards to change the amount of his bet after he's been dealt his cards. He waves his hand holding the cards over his chips and picks up on of his chips with his thumb and hides it against and underneath the cards he's holding. I think that's why they don't let the players hold the cards any more.

+ I arrive back in a small town to interview the residents, it's for some documentary. I've been here before, numerous times. I'm in a beauty salon, and I approach two seated people. I know them both but I've forgotten the name of the one to the right. I start interviewing them. More DCs approach, they're somewhat hostile, they don't like me doing these interviews. I recognize some as the founders of a startup I worked for. They're upset because the town (company?) is not successful and don't like the interviews. I see one young man who I "remember" was an underdog in life yet he became the successful founder of this beauty salon.

+ (f) talking (to SaPav's mother?) about how once I fell into a tide pool and got all wet. I imagine myself trying to walk around a hole in the ground, I must have lost my balance and fallen in.

+ I've given a gift to SaPav [S2 classmate]: a large self-standing clothes drying rack. It's quite tall, it reaches to my eye level. S is really excited about this gift, and starts hanging all his family's clothing on it. I say in a foreign language [incorrect I think] that "you can also hang a lot of hangers on it!" and I run my hand through the dozen or so simple wire hangers hanging down from the wires on the right side of the rack. I look at the rack, S has hung up about 40-50 pairs of really brightly colorful men's briefs. They have filled the entire drying rack's surface.

+ in some campground, I call for my son S2 to bring me "some ice cold fresh water from the lake." He says that's a great idea and goes to get it in a bucket. I bring a dirty bucket with me but decide against that, I go back and see my Sierra cup on the ground and will use that to accept and drink the water.

+ I'm walking up a path that leads out of a building to outside. I'm talking to a female university student (behind me?), I say how I used to live in this neighborhood. We're walking up an outdoor stairway (over a small chasm?) leading to a theater. "And the great thing about this location is that you're so close to the theater!" This is the back entrance to the theater. As we enter the theater I hear a rehearsal in progress, we're a bit early. I wonder if they'll let us in to the seats yet. I hear two young women singing. They're supposed to be singing unison but they're not quite perfectly together. The very slight dissonance creates a lovely effect, more interesting that perfect unison. I'm wondering if we can go to our seats, (open a door, see a lobby?), (there are groups of young people hanging around here?)

+ (f) church, priest, service, altar under a protruding "ceiling"

+ flying alien ship descending down to river from high in the air, searching for sister ship, see it up against bank vertical, many other ships appear then getting in the way of my landing in the river.

+ overflowing poop from toilet from a really massive dump, not my problem

+ intimate contact with girl

+ playing in orchestra: the key signatures are wonky, the key is Eb but the two other flat signs are missing from the key signature. The brass instruments are playing one note but I'm playing an e natural instead of an flat? There are key changes in the notes but they're not structured correctly.

+ people standing in formation and singing, I move to the counter and the guy who was first in line steps aside to the left and does something there.

+ drinking the drink (smoothie?) that many others drank before: the jug/vase is large and dirty I go to wash it. This drink has passed through the digestive system of countless people before us.

+ wife building bad roof, doesn't cover the edge of the building on the ground, the entire structure wobbles badly, thick rows of nails stick out sideways from the beams instead of being hammered down on top to secure the boards on top of the beams. The ceramic wire case will require welding, a special welding for ceramic. I hold the broken ceramic wires in my hand and fit them together, they go together well but will require the welding to hold them firmly

+ first waking: no concrete recall, definitely dreamed but couldn't move beyond vague impressions

busy mind. Calmed it with modified SSILD (fogelbise style, all senses per one breath)
got back to sleep!

+ (LD#149) I'm on a bus. Sitting in front of me is a girl and (her family members?). My hand is one the back of the chair. She's wearing an open-backed shirt and my hand is really close to touching her skin. I think about brushing my hand against her skin "accidentally" but I don't. The girl then turns around fully, kneeling on her seat and seems to be looking right at me and starts talking, but I figure out she's talking to her "sister?" who is right behind me. (The girl in front of me has red hair & blue eyes?). I glance behind me and see the sister, she seems to be a twin of the girl in front.

I decide to do some "stuff" hidden by blanket on top of me. At one point something comes in to view briefly and I wonder if the girl behind me sees it. I cover up with the blanket again.

I look up and see a reflective mirror strip near the ceiling of the bus. I look into it and see a row of girls a few rows back. 2-3 of them look like identical twins (like the sister), and one more of them looks similar enough to definitely be a sister.

(discontinuity?)

I look forwards and notice that the girl and her family who had sat in front of me had moved across the aisle, I think they moved away from me because of my "stuff." There is another family sitting in front of me. I notice I'm sitting next to a girl on my right, rubbing shoulders with her. I turn to look at her, placing my right arm over her seat back. I get bold and lean down/over and kiss her. I'm lucid now and I say out loud, "I'm dreaming." I continue to kiss her, several "smacks", lightly pulling on her lips a bit for the sensation, feels totally convincing, and I fade to awake.

Very stoked about the LD. Get my self calm again with SSILD and am just about asleep again when I get a phone call, and then get up for the day.

+(f) in some room, there's a friend there, narrator/thinking about a gun that kills by silently (boiling the blood?), what if somebody comes by our window with that gun and shoots us while we sleep?

+ in my camping tent which suddenly collapses, something happened to the main lines. Friends offer to help. I realize I didn't stake the perimeter of the tent at all. The tent is on a raised rocky ledge so staking will be hard. Friend puts long metal stake on one of the corners

+ parking lot at night, cars are pulling in and out I'm trying to find a space? I'm trying to get out we're going somewhere other cars are pulling into and out of spot and are in my way. I wonder how I'm going to find my way (in a caravan of vehicles). I see on the main street that a large long tourist bus has arrived (it's going with us), I'm relieved, I'll just follow that bus even if it's slow, there are some other cars pulling to the curb that are in our group.

+ someone (wife?) says son S2 should take off his ring (?). I'm looking at our area, and I see that all of our firewood everywhere is smoldering, with coals, and burning in some places. Everywhere I look, our wood is catching fire. This is very dangerous we could all get burned out! Someone piled the wood on top of the stoves and it is getting to hot and catching fire. I look into one stove and the fire has almost gone out, I want to light it again, so I blow on to the embers to get it blazing again. DC comes up and we kiss deeply.

+ I'm in a (tram?) high up and have a sky-diving apparatus on. There's another guy and a girl instructor. She's giving bad instructions, I'm panicking because I don't know where any of the important controls are on the vest. She's saying "pull this thing" and I'm saying "where!? which one?" I imagine falling through the sky without knowing how to deploy my chute. She's telling us how to inflate cushioning areas on the vest (to help with landing I wonder?). Our tram approaches the ground and it's basically right at ground level and I think "well, should we just step out? What's so hard about this? Is this all there is to it?" I step out on to the ground and get my pants stuck on a low fence and get untangled. A woman guide says "OK, let's go exploring now! Make sure to take your precious gold jewelry along with you."

+ (f) I'm in some porch waiting for some items from the clerks. They're all young people, the girls are saying the guy should deal with me, they don't want to. I imagine I'm old and unattractive so that's why they're saying that .
Inside a room like a dormitory with lots of beds laid out I see my cat(?) and then jump on to my bed and my cat jumps there too(?)

+ (f) walking on a sidewalk next to a line of middle-school students who are singing, I see and listen for a bit. I'm walking a little faster than they are. Up ahead are some more people including some girls who are standing around in a doorway.

+(f?) lightsaber on off, waving around, button cover falls off, still works but have to push harder, it's inconvenient without the button cover. The blade is a bright blue color.

+ giving superman flying take-off lessons: fly low over grass, then "pull up" suddenly into the sky. Barrel rolls preferred to avoiding obstacles over simply weaving around them -- give demonstration but a huge buffalo latches on to me and hinders my movement

+ driving to Reno: turn right, speed limit sign, signs look different in Nevada, you have to really keep your eye out for them, they're sort of small and square and blue-colored. I remember the speed trap approaching Reno and drive slowly. The road starts out as a very winding two-lane road [more windy than I recall] it soon becomes a high rocky path that I'm walking on (no road any more), then I find myself standing in a depression (formed by the feet of all the people who stood her previously) on two huge high abutting boulders, look at ground for best path down, it's to the left, jump down but go right, fall head-first put out arm, it'll probably break

+ entering room with renowned (movie directors/publishers?) and friend, everyones seated around a table for a meeting. We go to my friend's place at the table, he says I should have a place at the table, friend says I can find a place, there are name cards at the places, he's looking next to him, but I see my name on a card across the table from my friend [reading upside down!], I'm a bit surprised they know me and put a place for me.

+ in car, detour intersection, busses all turning right, I go straight, then walking. Guy wants to go to Azerbaijan, I point the way along the detour route. I try to say "detour" in <foreign language> [but in waking retrospect used the incorrect word that sounds similar to the correct not]. The guy starts following us and I think about telling him again the correct route but don't.

+ observing (elderly?) people stranded on steep tall cliff trying to climb/jump down, they're trying to slide slowly down vertically by digging their shoes into the hillside, a man is going to jump, is he close enough to the ground so he won't get hurt? He jumps and lands on his back against another rock, but he seems OK. Then DO flying over the scene the people on the cliff are talking about the woman who killed someone. She seems to be lying face down as if drowned in a rocky tide pool by the edge of the ocean, but she moves and says something.

+ getting into bed, there are tons of thick comforters at the foot of the bed piled up, I get in around the foot. I see a slow-moving large black mouse appear on top of the pile of comforters, it starts to walk around on top of the pile. I think there's lots of hiding places inside that pile. I shove it on to the floor, it moves slowly and doesn't avoid me. Then I see several large rats on the floor. I freak out and call for my wife, we put one into a cage, some discussion about these rodents.

+(f) in swimming pool, I find/am looking for shoes?

+(f) observing a pool game, one guy only does well when (a pig sits on him?) he slams a shot into the corner pocket which violently rocks around in the pocket before falling

+(f) in an assembly line and I'm excited that the big hunks of sliced salmon have shown up, I'm running around talking to someone trying to get the line moving

+(f) something about jumping on a high podium with a bear

Paying attention to senses during the night. Poor/light sleep.

bedtime around midnight 00:00 - 00:30?

+ (f) sitting around a fire(?) with guys holding huge stone axes, the axe heads are several feet in each dimension, this is because stone is much more fragile than metal, metal tools can be much smaller

+ work

+ tree/path/cars/bribe/toaster

I'm standing on a path looking to a hillside fairly far away where bunch of guys have wrapped their arms around the trunk of a tree (various side branches) and are trying to pull it down. The tree breaks and falls to the ground on top of / around the men. I call out "you've broken the tree!" (I see this process repeat once?). I see that one of the pieces of the multi-trunked tree has splintered and landed on top of one of the guys. Another guy is near. He uses his strength (he'll have to be really strong! I think) to move the trunk off the guy underneath. He's not wearing a shirt. I sort of expect to see he's been pierced by a sharp piece of wood but he looks OK.

Walking on the dirt path on the way I used to walk home from the science museum. The path is much wider and with established tire tracks now. A dune-buggy like car zooms by me on the higher part of the path closer to the fence. I'm annoyed by this fast traffic. I look back and see a large bush is separating the two parts of the path. I think of placing a large, metallic pyramid structure about 1 meter high on the high path to block the way of cars. As I approach the fence at the end of the dirt path, a small, bronze car zips by me at high speed on the lower path. I gesture with my arms and call out "slow down!" as I reach the gate and turn to look the bronze car stops and a (blonde?) guy leans out his head and calls something which I can't hear, but presumably to complain about my complaint. I call out "I CAN'T HEAR YOU!".

Suddenly a small car runs right in to me. It hits me across both my upper legs. It bumps against me again. I'm mad and I pick up the tiny car in my arms and throw it a few meters down the hill. I see that there is a female driver (young, blonde?). I then realize what's happened and say "You hit me with your car!…..YOU HIT ME WITH YOUR CAR!" I think I'm going to call the cops and get her in a heap of trouble. I take out my cell phone and there is a big conical damaged area in it that I push with my fingers and it goes in and out above/below the main plane of the phone.

I'm walking in a room and there is a man there who is trying to bribe me (about the accident?). He asks me "are you a member of CRSS?". I say "I don't pay any attention to [city B] politics. I just want it to be a good place for people to live. The people who live here shouldn't be bothered." He hands me a small stack of cash. I start to count through it and I see $1, $5, $10, $20 bills, and also some paper advertisement fliers, which means there's less cash here than I thought. He says not to count it here.

Walking out, there's a woman(?) giving a class on a chess program (like ChessBase or Chess Position Trainer, but it has its own name), there are several young (high school?) male students there. The teacher is apologizing to the guys, saying "I know you wanted to get in one more game." I'm with my wife and I want to head up the final hill home [to childhood home], but the stairway leads through a toaster oven which is cooking an open-faced sandwich which is blocking the way out. I open the oven and wonder if they'll mind if I take out the sandwich myself. It's really bubbling from the heat. There is a thin layer of meat, and some bubbling brown sauce on top. I want to put in a sandwich for my wife, I see some onion rings under the stuff piled on the tray.

+ fly LD(#148)
I'm on my childhood home deck at night [location not acknowledged in dream], I'm jumping high into the air, a cat is on top of the railing and also jumps high. This may be a dream/RC doing this jump, before was not conclusive even though we hung in the air a split second. Jump again and the cat also jumps with me, higher this time, I do a nose-pinch in the air and get lucid. I turn to look down the hill and see the city lights far below me in clumps in the distance. I stretch out my arms and start flying towards the lights. I'm losing a bit of altitude and am coming up on some neighbor's deck furniture below me pretty close but I decide I'm going to clear it OK and I do. A lock of hair is hanging down obscuring the view from my right eye a bit and I shake my head to dislodge it. I keep flying towards the lights and decide that I'm going to do my best to maintain lucidity and keep the dream solid and stable for a long time. Then my wife moves in bed
and I wake up.

BTS

13:30
final waking

+ arriving with group in car on steep hill. Our destination is down the hill below the parking lot. The guys in the car don't want to park so far away. I drive in to the parking lot (circling it first?) and choose a spot that is still pretty high. We get out and then the people help me to empty pieces of a bathtub into the parking lot (?)

+ I'm in some sort of scientific lab. I'm talking with people about the discoveries that have been made. It is apparently some sort of electronic brain. I'm saying that there has been a breakthrough in nerve signal transmission. Also something about the high amount of power it takes to drive this device.

Then I'm standing a bit farther down the room. There's a sign/thing that we are required to read and memorize only when the train arrive and we must repeat this word/phrase/code/thing before the train leaves. My friend lifts up the flap covering the code and reads it ahead of time, he's beaten the system he thinks. It reads something like "NOOOOMOOO". Then the train comes, and I lift the flap, and I see that the code has changed. The joke is on us, now we must quickly memorize the new complex code and restate it in just a few moments. We're not going to make it.

I had a bunch of wine before bed. About 5-6 glasses, it is a very weak homemade sort of wine, more like beer. The glasses were small. Probably equivalent to 2 regular glasses of wine, alcohol-wise. Also a few sips of Jagermeister .

Also had a bedtime snack of a scrambled egg sandwich with cheese, and a glass of milk. Think I'll be repeating this in the future!

No recall before the dreams that went lucid.

+ (LD#146) Law book, spider-master man, (LD) garage tour
I'm about to start studying a really thick book for Law School. We have to remember every single detail from the book. I'm a bit nervous about how I'm going to remember all this detail. I think I should prepare a notepad with me to take notes while I read. I flip through the book to see how many pages it has. The same page numbers (90-something?) keep repeating throughout the book, they don't keep increasing. I say "every chapter starts over at page one!" I go look for the table of contents to try to determine how many pages there are. I finally determine there are somewhere around 600 (?) pages in the book.

I start reading through the book. One one page there is a diagram towards the bottom of the page depicting and naming about 6 different styles of boat. Some of them look like little "Orion" ships from the computer space battle "empire", and are labeled "orion-<something>". Do I have to remember this, too?

There is a veteran lawyer in the room, he's busy working on something. I want advice on studying, do I really have to remember everything? I go up to him and respectfully say "excuse me, may I ask you a quick question, it won't take long" but he shakes his head "no," he's preparing for a client?

I keep studying the book some more. Then I go back to the guy a bit later and ask again "I just want to know do I have to remember every single detail from the book?" He says yes, you have to memorize everything.

I'm standing outside and the lawyer guy comes. I want to get away from him so I transform myself into a little spider and slip through a crack. He keeps coming like he knows where I am. Again I transform into a little spider and slip through a railing on a stairway and down to the ground floor. He keeps coming at me. I think he is the "spider master". I ask him "do you always know where all spiders are?" He says "yes." Then I either ask or he volunteers that there are thousands of spiders within the immediate vicinity. He says that there's a room (garage?) with zillions of spiders there, he detects them now, and offers to show me.

I follow him and we walk around a corner in the hallway in this house and there's the door to the garage. I'm surprised by a large (reddish?) stuffed fish that is hanging from a wire from the ceiling down just above my head that starts wiggling in alarm when we come around the corner. I also glance on the far wall and see something crawling there I think it's a large spider. I do a nose pinch RC from the surprise/oddness of the situation and I can breathe, I'm lucid.

The man is continuing the tour but I decide to ditch and go back outside to the right where I met him. There is a DC there

Spoiler for sexy situation:

and I engage and kiss it briefly. It doesn't seem into it, but then I offer up some tongue and it enthusiastically responds and we french for a few seconds.

I decide that I want to go on the tour now. I head back to the garage door and the man is there and I say something like "let's go on the tour." We head in to the garage. There is a small group now of people on the tour. There are a bunch of rooms all connected, like garage/laundry rooms. There are no spiders, I note. In one room I glance in and see a bunch of stuffed animals. Very life-like. One is a small dog. I think I could transform that dog into my old dog "L" and bring it back to life. We walk on.

I encounter the DC I was interacting with earlier

Spoiler for sexy situation:

and give it a quick squeeze around its crotch area. I reach for its butt too but

mistakenly touch some woman who's walking by. At that point some kid throws something at the woman, distracting her.

We're then in another room. This is the family of jr-high GF KS. This room preserves statues (like wax) of the 3 girls in the family as they were at various ages growing up, each one riding the bicycle that they had at that age. Also extremely life-like. I notice one who I think is HS (brown hair) but none of the faces are right. I also look for JS but don't see her. There are lots of people in the group of various ages, I see the face of a girl, I do not know her. Dream starts slowly slowly fading
and I'm awake. Try to DEILD back in but am awake, so I spend time recalling the dream.
Time lucid: ~4-5 mins

+ (LD#147) dolphin, animals, "Sylvah"
Memory of the dream begins with me walking into a room and stopping dead in my tracks, because there in the room standing on its "head" is a dolphin! It's "walking" that way? It's also part cucumber? I notice in the next room beyond two tiny penguins (pigeon-sized) standing close together. I do a nose pinch and I can breathe, am lucid. I thank the dolphin (and pat it?) as I walk by out on to the deck [of childhood home apparently]. In the corner to the right are some shelves with pairs of little live animals. There is a pair of pigeons there and I choose a pair of little rodents and put them on my right shoulder to perch there. I turn to the right looking down the length of the deck and ask them "what would you guys like to do? Go flying? "Find" some girls?" I reach the corner where the deck turns to the left and on the other side of the railing I see a girl there doing something. I say happily "Hi! My name's <real name>, what's your name?" She comes up to the other side of the railing and whispers something which I can't hear. I want her to speak louder. She says, audibly this time, "Sylvah." I reach over the railing and put each hand under each of her armpits and lift/pull her over the railing to my side. I place her with her back against the front railing. I lean down in front of her and kiss her briefly. I then ask, "would you like to go to the beach under the bridge?" She shakes her head and says "No....too cold....". I then say "how about an inland beach by a lake, warm?" She nods her head "yes." I want to get her into her bikini. I lift up her shirt (she's wearing something like loose pajamas) and see a bikini top, lower the top, and pull down her pants and she's wearing a bikini bottom.
the dream fades at this point (or I just lose lucidity).

I then return non-lucid to the place where the animals were on the corner of the deck by the door. I'm taking some notes with a pen on a plastic transparency. I realize the notes will be permanent. I'm recording how large a dose of sleeping pills I gave the girl (?). I write a big cursive "g" and a 3? I think "3g, no, that's way too much, probably meant mg." I think I shouldn't be writing this here, people will come and find what I've written.

Time lucid: ~1.5 mins

+ (f, started full dream, eventually lost to fragment) with boy scouts (?) and stuff in the van?

+ locker room
I'm walking through a locker room looking for a locker to use. I have a padlock in my hand. I find a locker without a lock on it and open it but it turns out not be suitable. I walk back the way I came, looking at the shelves of lockers, small ones, each with a combination lock with different colored dials on them. I find a locker? I think about changing into my swim suit.

+ spider woman
With wife, walking by a glass display of a woman in side who is the "spider woman." My wife looks in and walks on. I look in. All I really notice is the face of a woman with a fairly creepy smile on it showing large white square teeth. I expect that at any moment she could lunge at the glass with her fangs out but she doesn't.

+ by the pool
I'm standing by some bleachers next to a swimming pool. There are other people in the bleachers.

Spoiler for nude talk:

I notice that on the other end of the bleachers there is a naked woman reclining, I have a side view. I see her breasts clearly and get a bit of a view of dark pubic hair. There is another woman standing up next to her also naked, with sort of weird breasts.

Later on I'm in another room and I see the two woman, dressed now, and think "ah, that's a shame that they got dressed"

+ FA wife, bed, student
I find myself in bed (prior house? not current). My wife is working with a student at the desk to the left of the bed. I reach over and tip my wife's chair backwards so that she falls back and sprawls in the bed with me. I massage her legs. I think the student's parent are in another room. I consider getting out of bed without clothes.

Nice to get an epic again. Hope this signals continuing return of recall.

+ military theme, mech girl, bike ride
I see trucks carrying huge missiles drive by.

I'm standing outside in daylight at an intersection with a cute girl inside a big mech warrior suit. I'm talking to her but she doesn't respond. At one point I stick my hand which is wearing a light and loose glove into the mech's arm/leg and some moving gears inside catches the glove. I realize that my hand is stuck and is getting pulled slowly but surely close to the moving gears which will probably at least take off a finger. I manage to dislodge my hand (by pressing on some lever on the mech?). I'm asking the girl something, but she just turns away and walks off with the mech into some trees, then heads back to the road and (I think) to camp. I think if I should try to follow her.

Follow on foot, or on bike? I'm then riding a bike (thought of my father?), like my old Schwin 5-speed with the banana seat and high handle bars. There is only one hand brake, on the left handle bar, and I use it to stop. I think about trying the pedals to see if there is a brake there, but there is no bake on the pedals. I'm riding down some hills, and I stop and turn around and ride back up.

+ epic: baseball stadium, colleagues, terrorists, space ship, captive?

I'm in a parking lot outside the stadium. Cars are parking. I'm on foot but want to find a parking spot. There aren't many spots left in the preferred parking. I walk to the normal lot and there are plenty of spots here, but people continue to arrive. I go to the parking ticket dispenser. I'm standing in a spot that I want to park in, but how can I reserve it, I need to keep this spot and go get my car and park here. Should I leave the ticket here on the ground?

Inside the baseball stadium, I enter and am at a concession stand. At the stand buying food is my old colleague from company R (then company N), WaDo. He's there with his young son [false]. He has a mustache and kind of crazy-looking "Einstein" hair. He son looks just like him, just a lot smaller, including the mustache! I'm standing nearby him and as he turns away from the counter and his gaze passes over me, I wave energetically and say "Hi, W!" and wait for him to notice me. But he seems not to recognize me. He's approaching some stairs going down and I talk to him some more. He stops to talk to me and places his tray on the top of the banister, but he misses and the tray falls to the ground, he doesn't seem too upset about this, he just says "Oh." Then he mentions that he never got that email from me about <something>. Then I "remember" that I did indeed forget to send it, it wasn't critical though just some question.

I see then colleague JiMa (company 3), he looks quite accurate. We're walking down the stairs, and I'm saying "do you know who that was? That was WD, the architect of the P-engine at (company R), he worked with famous guy JC on the application Q!"

I'm concerned about my ticket, it doesn't seem to have a seat assignment on it in the stadium. I take it out and it just has a number "58" (?) on it. My wife gave me these ticket stubs, maybe I'm missing the seat assignment. JM says that I should have the PDF file that contains the information.

I'm inside my room with my wife and (younger) kids. I see a door and go out. There's a second door beyond the first door, but I can't reach it without letting the door to my room close. I go out and the door to my room closes. I then go out the second door. I'm in a narrow twisty corridor with lots of unmarked doors. I start to panic and want to get back to my room. The corridor floor is curved (like the cross-section of a slide) and colored with "dots" (?). I'm moving through sequences of doors and finally emerge to a large open area.

The first thing I see is another concession stand but it's just a bar. I think "oh, so this is where my son went," to sneak away from us and drink beer. I see my son sitting nearby with a friend and expect to see a glass of beer in his hand but he's not drinking beer actually. I also see the end of some amusement ride: it is a stand-up ice slide. People wear slippery attachments to the their feet/legs and balance standing up as they slip down the twisty frozen slide. I see some attachments on legs that look like casts (for broken legs).

I hear no noise from the crowd and I think that means our team is probably losing. JM is there again with me. At some point someone narrates about tall glass buildings where the glass reflects the light and it gets in everybody's eyes.

I'm standing in a corridor and there are 3 suspicious looking guys. Their faces are covered by black balaclavas, and they have a lot of things strapped to big vests that they're wearing. I clearly see a hand grenade attached to one guy's vest, eventually I think he's carrying 3. They're all acting very nervous and are continually fidgeting and adjusting their gear, opening zippers and pulling out things and attaching them to their vests and then closing the zippers. I think they're terrorists.

I'm in a space ship, we're preparing for a massive battle with many other ships. Now the critical auction for ammunition is beginning. Our captain steps up (a man at this point), he's very experienced at munitions auctions and we urge him to hurry. He quickly steps up and says "15,000 for 15,000!" He ends up buying 355 missiles. These missiles are then placed as golden squares on the consoles around our ship. There is a lot of room for more missiles on extended munitions systems, but they say that these extensions are not reliable.

I'm walking through the ship talking to somebody (JM from baseball?), and am feeling confident that with 355 missile we'll triumph. I say "we'll (use lasers?) on the easy targets and mop up the rest with the missiles" (?). Our captain is now a young woman, and I point her out to my friend and say she is an extremely talented captain. I'm searching for the right phrase, and say "she's the Mozart of space ship captains."

I'm now wearing a vest with lots of pockets on it, and apparently I'm a captive being taken somewhere. I check my pockets and think that I put something in the pockets back in the baseball stadium. I feel for a small item but nothing is there. I'm looking for a weapon, like a knife. In a room I see a scalpel and a small round black plastic rubber ring/plug in a zip-lock baggie by a door, but I don't pick it up. I think I'll find something else in some room. I'm walking with (my captors?) through the rooms in the ship, and when we reach an intersection, they walk forwards and I quickly zip into the side passage (which is just another entrance to the same room it turns out), and I'm continuing to search for a weapon to hide but don't find anything. At this point a young man with black hair (who is the son of other colleagues from company K who got married), he's looking harried and is also a captive/stowaway.

Sense of many many dreams this night. Forgot some early ones. Dream signs in bold.

+ apple tree
I'm standing in a small quiet garden. Someone else is here. In front of me I see a small tree with an umbrella-shaped canopy. It's about 10 feet tall. There is one large red & yellow mottled colored apple hanging from the tree. I reach for it and pick it. It is slightly bumpy, not perfectly spherical. It is pretty heavy and I imagine it will be really good. I say something to the person there. The leaves of the tree are completely covered with light webbing from worms/moths like on in my apple tree IWL.

+ basketball
Playing basketball, scramble for the ball, the other team ends up kicking it and it rolls all the way through our side of the court and out of bounds. I imagine taking it out. Later, I'm setting up a position to take a shot, from half-way up the key on the side (like when playing "round-the-world"). I will bank the ball off the backboard. I take the shot (but there's no ball visible?)

+ (f) video tape
Operating a tape in a video tape (VCR) machine. I see the tape and it's sort of thin.

WBTB

+ frisbee
I'm hanging out in a backyard near a fence with good friend IvKr (company L). I want to play frisbee with him but I sense he's reluctant because he doesn't want to throw the frisbee over the neighbor's fence and have to go searching for it in their yard. I say "that's OK, I have developed excellent control skills", and I take the frisbee and give it a light toss towards the center of the yard. It flies slowly about 10 feet and hovers for a second before dropping.

I run out into the center of the yard and I notice that the lawn is bare of grass in number of spots.
IK throws the frisbee really hard/fast and I manage to catch it and say "oh HO! So I can do strong throws like that, too!" And I show him how I used to [true IWL] throw "discuss-style" and say "in this way I can throw it for hundreds of yards!" and do a throw like this but very very softly so it doesn't fly over the fence.

Then I notice that IK is standing in the yard, naked, bent over, butt facing me, and is mooning me. I'm sort of grossed out by this but I see that he has a very female-looking butt and no male sex organs, it looks like a v-jay in fact. But I still look away because I "don't want to go blind."

+ fly from deck (LD#144)
I'm upstairs in my childhood home in my parents' bedroom. I pick up a pack of wet wipes and something else (a small cylinder?) and head to my bedroom for some "quality me-time". My door is open (there is no door?) and I think that's sort of risky since I'm just a room away from where people are. I turn right into my room from the hallway, and my son S2 is following me and I don't want him to see what I'm doing so I stash the things I'm carrying quickly on a shelf (on the wall of shelves) fairly high up and immediately head out and down the stairs. Part way down the stairs I look through the railing and see S2 is still in my room, craning his head poking into the shelves to see what I put there with a sort of smirk on his face and I'm annoyed at his persistence in trying to figure out what I'm doing.

I walk out on to the deck and lean forwards against the railing with my arms on the top and think why haven't I come out here yet on to the deck on this trip? There are a few strange bolts sticking up out of the top of the railing in a few places. I'm admiring the view. I turn go around the corner to the left towards the steps down to the garden and turn back towards the view. I get the idea of trying to fly. I think, "wouldn't it be awesome if I could transition into a dream and start flying from being totally awake, like I am now? I take a quick running start and stretch my arms out in front of me and wish that I could be lucid and fly, and I don't fall down, I'm flying, and I'm lucid! [*2] I fly out over the city below and I'm seeing the trees, buildings, roads, fairly far below me and really enjoying the view. I want to go faster so I pull back a fist and thrust it forwards quickly [*1] and I start moving over the landscape faster. I look up and see the view and city S in the distance, I want to go there.

I am now flying at ground level and a car is approaching across the water which fills the street. I want to get to the car, it's a small brownish-orange compact. It starts turning away from me and driving in a circle, but I'm really slow now. I want to go faster but can't. I do a bit of "air swimming". There's a female in the car I want to get to? As I get to the car, the dream fades.

[*1] like in the "superman with a go-pro" video
[*2] (It worked, I got lucid from being awake!?)

+ talking to tall guy friend (LD#145)
I'm standing in a garden outside in daylight, there are a lot of people there. I'm standing near the side of a house with a friend who's a very tall guy, who seems at least 1 foot taller than me. My friend is leaning his back up against the wall, and I'm standing in front of him, close, facing him, and looking up into his face. Another friend is standing to my right / his left. I'm trying to figure out just how tall he is. I hold my hand above my head at the level of the top of my friend's head and figure out his height. I say "you're what, like 6'7"?" He/the other friend says " 6'6" " I say " 6'6"? ".

Then I'm standing in my room in my childhood home [don't realize this] near the closet door and the window, standing close to this tall friend, with my right elbow on his left shoulder, with my right hand placed affectionately on the back of his head, and I'm telling him the details of lucid dream #144. "...Then I took off flying and I made the superman gesture and started flying even faster" "Cool!" my friend says. Then I look at my friend and I start to realize...and say "in fact, I'm lucid dreaming right now!" Let's go to the next room, there are a bunch of girls there and we can <bleep>. I lead him to the next room. There are lots of girls seated around (circular?) tables. I say "here, you can <bleep> this one, I want one with bigger <bleep>s, and select one. Dream is getting unstable/fading.

Then I'm non-lucid and standing with some girl (my choice when lucid?) and I'm handing her some bills from my wallet to pay for some classes which I want (my kids?) to take.
