+ I enter a house -- standard suburban ranch-style. The owner/occupant is a man lying on a couch in the living room. We exchange some words, he has some advice for me? In his house is a large collection of red-felt covered billiard/pool tables. They are mostly odd sized, far smaller than regulation. Some are stacked on on top of the others. I'm looking for a more or less regulation sized tabled, but don't see one. We're sitting at a counter and talking and I notice through the glass walls/windows [DREAM SIGN] that the next door neighbor's yard is completely flooded. It's a medium-sized rectangular yard and there is about a foot or more of standing water there. I point this out to the billiard table guy.

+ driving around looking for an open taco place, but it's only 9am, I'll probably have to wait until at lest noon before one opens. I'm looking in through the front from the parking lot but I don't see any lights on.

+ at F&D G's house, there's a kid playing video games on the couch. I go and sit with them and look at the controller he's using.

+ birthday party envelope over the wire this was the second time more involve than the first: S2?

+ warehouse tons of stuff left going out of business? bowling the bottles broken glass everywhere alcohol walking the lower flow, pick up and stare at a 3-4 inch crystal ball, browsing the mugs

+ singing the coke song older people are doing it (kiosk where guy hides?)

+ bidding against FG [WalFiPal] for a large potato omlet he bids $190 I say forget it, I see DD, CL, NI faces.

+ guy chasing another guy because he messed up his phone? car gets in way, chase on sidewalk, shooting shotguns. hide in a kiosk Big fat dude with a butthole drawing on the outside of his pants a girl mimics shoving her arm up there on the outside of his pants and he reaches down and gives her a gift, it's a play-act like she's pulling it out of his butt. He raises his shirt as I walk by and see his stomach is covered in tattoos, line art style

+ picking up kids from house, guy likes to lay his clothing out on the bed ahead of time, there is a check involved in leaving his place of business, but I don't have compensation for my tools [waking memory], he says pick up the kids at 2am and I'm incredulous, that will never work, I'll just take all the kids home now.

earlier:
+ in the metro, many platforms, running to make the trains, don't make it in time

+ with cousins who lost a son, I want to hug her but she (and they all) move away from me

+ computer (programming) competition: I'm waxing poetic about the rules, wondering about how those without computers will do, the referee thinks my thoughts are very wise, I go outside and find my computer on the streetcorner and try to gather all my things together, people are walking by and one guy stops to talk to me, I'm dropping lots of pamphlets/papers on the ground and can't seem to pick them up [DREAMSIGN], I'm thinking I should get a backpack to carry them all, the computer's quite heavy and I"m wondering how I'll be able to move it

later:

+ crossing the river which is now dried up a lot, jumping over the streams of water so my feet won't get wet, climbing hill of trash/equipment (including computers) and I get a strong sense of deja vu, enter the bus with trash/garbage, clouds of flies buzzing around abandoned mini-fridges, one guy starts singing, I think I have a better voice and start singing too, someone comments that they like the other guy's voice better

+ outside with a group of elves facing a group of (orcs?), the lead elf (in elaborate armor) launches a pile of flowers/roses like a spear at the other group and I have a "target eye view" of the incoming rose flying straight like and arrow and I think wow it's really flying straight. I look onto a distant hill and see big pits/holes dug there

+ inside a small shower stall the wall is too close it interferes with my movements, I get out and there is a young girl there and we discuss something

+ falling/top-down view on top of a big truck that is landing in a large complex parking/area I'm trying to figure out when I can jump off but it's too high so I have to wait for the truck to fully land/park before jumping off. Sense of deja-vu, I think I've done this before.

earlier:

+(f) crawling through an underground bunker, we'll surprise them when we surface

later:

+ playing chess, planning combinations, I have the opportunity to win some material with check, the question is if he castles queenside will I be able to castle or get my king to into protection in time

+ 3 girls outside in sunlight (at a bus stop?) they talk to me, I "accidentally" kiss one of them on the arm lightly, they lead the way to their table, their grandparents are there (I'm leery of them?) then there's a laundry drying rack, I take off my shirt and I don't want to give them my best shirts to wash, there is also my robe but I want it to be ready for me to wear in the morning

+ work meeting: everyone is talking at once and I can't understand anyone, so I should "ONLY ONE PERSON AT A TIME" and "quiet!" again later when I can't understand still

+ exercise cafeteria: like sushi boats but women are sitting around the table, I take a piece of fish in sauce on bread and eat it, the attendant (hidden under the table) places another long piece of brown bread for me to take

+ girls with odd/exaggerated eyes, I believe this is because it's a show on TV and the editors have used photoshop to manipulate the eyes to be exaggerated in size. Go outside and there are two very cute girls in boats/bicycles parked on the side of the road. I see our white minivan is across the street and down the hill. Our group is walking/stumbling to the van across the street, one of the adult men seems to be very drunk, I'm looking for a way to cross the street to get to them.

Trying to get back into DJing, regardless of the quality of the night's recall.
Just some short fragments today. Late bedtime messes up recall...

+ there is a spot near an intersection where I need to park my car. The question is: do I park the car longways along the street or back in perpendicular to the curb? There is a traffic light nearby and I need to cross the street / U turn from where I am to get to the parking area

+ playing in a tennis tournament, I'm concerned about the quality of opponents I will be facing. I know I'm not very good, it's possible the match will be very short, with me just barely being able to return serves. I'm imagining a point at the net where the ball falls short (drop shot) on my side, and I rush the net and am trying to decide whether I should try to drop it back, lob it high, or try to pull off a full swing. Then I'm playing a point, it's very long and I'm running around a lot and i finally win the point. I had lost the first point. I go to the referee but he's not paying attention, nobody is -- because I'm not a very good player. I scream "THE SCORE IS 25-25!!! 25-25! This game is really important to me!!!"

+(f) [last-minute recall] at the dentist: there is a new type of drug? The dentist asks me that if I get to participate in the trial, would I write up support of the dentist in favor of it's use

+ (f) on my way somewhere with friends, I find myself walking through densely packed pine trees. I know that this is a commercial Christmas tree lot, but I'm forming a joke to tell my friends where I say we should return here and just take one of these trees. I come out from the pack and see people mullin around the lot. Some of the trees I see in front of me are very small and pathetic-looking.

I've been having fairly vivid dreams recently, with quite good recall initially. I haven't been DJing regularly, though. Lucidity pretty far away, it's not #1 on my priorities recently.

Among others, last night I had this memorable moment.

+ I'm getting in to my car, and I notice very thick, low cloud cover overhead. In fact, the clouds are hovering directly above my head. I reach up and touch them and tear off a piece. It feels like very thick, heavy, fluffy white cotton. I'm amazed at the consistency. I get in my car and start driving and the clouds are blocking my vision, I turn on my windshield wipers to clear them away and the wipers work at a furious pace (far faster than waking wipers) to clear away the clouds.

+ [very vivid] "star wars in the sun" -- dodging tanks, several "burning man C3PO", the playground area dug into the sidewalk with crumbling concrete, the museum entry with kids playing a computer game (python!) and the old man showing how to change games by winding differently colored strands of paint around two terminals (I thought this controlled a virtual machine apparatus behind the scenes!)

+ rocking the boat-house with TZ. TZ is hiding gameplay in his home office with a slide-to-the-side computer screen but he's too slow and my wife catches him and while he scrambles to ctrl-alt-del kill the partially hidden game task my wife sees him and gives him an earful about that. I think "poor fool, running windows 95, of course he can't kill the task fast enough"

+ cleaning up used condoms over at a kids' friend's house and throwing them in the sink but the sink is too small and they might clog the works. they are wet and nasty, one of them is mine I know, and the rest are theirs. I say "you throw them away, because I picked them up". I think I'm going to see some of the "good bits" on a girl but she gets shy and covers up.

+ flying with some amount of control over direction and in what I'm seeing. I think I'm doing a WILD and these are visualizations

+ (f) over at kids' friend's house (earlier in the night, not same dream) I'm in MZ's room and the boys are talking about something

super late bedtime. Dang Netflix to heck!

+ In a building, people about, sort of a hospital? I and my team are setting up in a hallway and when some people try to enter I shoo them away

Outdoors with people in a parking-lot-like place, there (shopping carts?) full of objects (flowers?) that we're checking out.

+(f) outdoors talking with someone about university level math, something starting with "D" is not as hard as it looks, I say

+ scenes from a ski hill at a downhill skiing resort. Skiiers are swooshing down the hill, some going dangerously fast.

+ I'm getting off public transport (metro?) with my motorcycle. A bunch of people are mulling about the bottom of a deep large rectangular stairwell. I look up and can see the buildings outside in the light. I don't see how I'm going to get my bike up there. In the end I start just pushing it up the stairs, and I seem to be able to manage it. A friend of mind starts telling me how my other friends (who are the Srs twins, who are performing?) don't like it when there are disturbances in the middle of the show, and goes into a long offer about storing my bike and getting it back to me the next day. I don't want to do this so I keep it with my.

Walking through the open ampitheater seating full of people, there is a free area that I know has been reserved for us by the friend-performers. It's near the top. I look for a place to store my bike. Just beyond the top of the rim of the seating area is a place where others have stored their bicycles. I see several bicycles lying on their sides taking up the space, I don't see an open space for my motorcycle.

As I head back to our seating, I overhear a snippet of conversation between two women [forgot].

+ observing a football play [DREAMSIGN]: in the endzone, a player receives the kickoff and only is able to run it back to the goal line, and dives forwards at the corner and places the football juuuuuuuuuust past the goal line corner marker right in front of the referee.

+ loading into a van (getting off?) at some destination/party location? The driver of the van is asking for $30 from everybody. I'm looking through my wallet and he reminds me that I already paid him so I just hand him $4.

earlier
+ concert, see/hear my instruments, they're not right
parade outside, foreigners, guy singing in English accent with a big hook nose

+ talking to girls on boat before the (bad guy?) come and takes them away

+ flying inside a large building at high levels, thinking how to get out, I could fly through the walls like Harry Potter ghosts, it would suck to be stuck as a ghost forever, immaterial like that

+ swimming contest in the pool: 1) girl gives into pool at start of race and gets caught on the ropes in between the lanes. Her head is under the water. We're getting concerned as she does not move. I pick her head up and she is alive because she has some sort of small breathing apparatus on over her nose/mouth. 2) I'm racing in a very small motor boat back and forth in the lanes I think I'll win, my partner isn't in the boat?

+ I don't see well and I find out it's because I have cataracts

+ 2 spies are harassing me in the locker room. One of the guys takes my underwear as I'm getting dressed and I grab it back, annoyed. I move my pile of clothes to another bench to get away from him. His partner stuffs a huge pile of things into the pockets of my jeans, I know there could be recording devices in there so I pull all of them out and throw them away. I turn away for a second and when I get back they've taken my jeans entirely. I run after them and hold on to the guy with force hold (TK) and with another TK tendril I pull my jeans out, and I will the TK bubble holding the guy to get hot to burn him.

later

+ room in building, multi-level sink, small sink, go outside in only towel it's a public area man sees me try to go back in cant find way, see S2 outside trying to sneak inside neighbor's apartment.

People working at table in public area, family, I go by and push/reach over table to get back my papers

+(f) bicycle with no wheels/portions of wheels

outside building trying to get back inside a man is behind me walking up the steps

+ (semi lucid?) dive into the pavement to get into the dream

+ waiting in line at an outdoor cookie stand, when it's my turn the woman tells me about the wonderful properties of her cookies, I think they're oatmeal raisin cookies but I get a close look and they're cookies with brown M&Ms. The guy next to me in line grabs the cookie and gives it to me and says I do not need to pay for it, then he grabs me a full chocolate cookie (black/brown) and gives it to me and says it's free. I'm quite happy. Then he grabs some more smaller cookies and says I can take these, too. But now I'm feeling bad for the cookie woman and say I don't want to put her out of business.

[2 hr waking]
+(f) there is recall, I'm amazed I have any, but forget it

[7-8 hr waking]
+ I'm getting in to a dentist chair. I look down at the chair and I see blood dripping and moving around beneath thick, clear plastic covers.

+ a bunch (pile?) of people are huddling on a stretcher underneath a blanket, they are very cold and shivering. I try to get in from the side pull up the blanket and get in. There is now a lot of room, I see the dark material of the stretcher beneath me.

+[long, vivid] I'm standing on a street corner where there is a vacant lot. I realize all of a sudden that all my things are gone!. I'm a college student and live (rent) that spot and all my things are now gone! I believe at first that the cleaning people have made a mistake and thrown everything out. Even my desk! I'm walking by the area again and realize that no, all my things instead have been impounded by the landlord because of past due rent payments. I see along the side of the lot a long narrow locked cage with all my things inside. I see bookshelves full of textbooks. I wonder how my things didn't get stolen before since they're just right there out in the open.

I wander up to a nearby building looking for the landlord to try to settle the payment and get my things back. I look back at the building behind me and see a white house from the outside, with a rotating display of street address numbers where the numbers are vertically displayed from top to bottom. I sort of recognize the top number as mine, and watch as it rotates out of view. There are about 5-6 addresses on this rotating display. There are so many addresses there because this is a house of student rental apartments. I keep looking but the number I recognize is not visible ever again.

I walk further and come across a cage, there are two girls there whom I feel like I recognize. Inside this square tall cage are more of my things. I see one of my big blue fabric suitcases that is very full and I think the zipper has busted, which will allow my things to poor out onto the ground. (Some brief dialogue with them?)

Heading farther down the street I encounter a small, low, two-leve coffee table. "Ah, this is my table!" I think. I look at it and realize there is writing on the top of the table, and I think I read the word "dream" or imagine that I read it. The more I look at the words the more they appear to be nonsense words written using latin letters.

I am talking with an old man. He indicates that I will need to pay to him, and we walk along the street back towards my lot. I'm wondering how much I will need to pay to get my things back. I don't know how long I have not paid rent. I imagine I will have to pay $3000 or more.

Walking along, I see on a (stool/stump) off to the right a walking-stick insect. It is slowly moving and showing off the parts of its body, I'm amazed at how much like a stick it looks. I'm pretty sure I've seen it before.

+ racquetball, watching people play through the glass, watching a point being played, they're good, hitting low along the right-hand side of the court. The service looks long but they start to play, they're using all the walls including the back wall. I look at my shoes before entering the court? I'm thinking I need to warm up a bit before playing, maybe practice some serves

+(f?) There is a (cat?) way up in a tree and I need to get it down, it's a friend's? It's stuck up there. I'm thinking of using TK to start with, but I decide instead to have a person up in the tree drop it to me and I'll catch it. I miss it and it splats on the pavement and I'm sad about this and start cooing over it hoping it's not hurt

+ in a kitchen (I think it's mine) with a close up view of one wall above the counter. I'm looking at the grouted tiles and fine a lose bit of grout and pull it out, and something long small and fast is underneath and starts running quickly along the top of the first level of tiles to the right. At first I think it's a mouse but it looks more like a slug. It's moving fast. I think "a ha, so this is how they get in, behind the grout/tiles!" It's still running along the tile/grout line turns a corner and runs along the wall to the right. There's a 2nd one running there now, too. I take a stick and flick the first one out to the ground where it keeps running. It's like a small bulbous bug now. I decide to step on it lightly and I feel it "pop" sickeningly under my foot. It's not dead just disabled there wiggling its legs. I flick the 2nd one to the floor and step on it, too.

+ [very vivid[ taking a tour of rooms in a house? sort of a ranch house. The house is now mine? Look into a bedroom, and there is a small bed along the left wall in the entry area, and there is a very disturbing stain, looks like blood or other dark bodily fluids, coming from under the pillow. I (or narrator?) says something about "well what do you expect with old people?". The stain reaches the edge of the bed and starts leaking and pooling on to the floor. As I enter the room I expect to smell something horrible from that but don't smell anything.

I'm moving about the room opening windows to check the view. One window is very narrow (about 3 inches) and taped shut. I pull it open and I see it looks out not to the outside but into another room, large, that looks like a barn, I say "hey this one looks out into the barn." I look out another window and see it looks into a stone/brick large open "family room" I'm then walking in a corridor towards this room and think hey this place is great they have an amazing large brick room complex, too. I find the entrance and it feels cold a little bit from the stone and enter it. There are large oil/gas tanks here, I think this is a house on the very edge of an oil processing plant. I have a view outside and I see a sweeping vista of green pine trees but in the foreground are large oil storage tanks. I wonder about the tanks getting refilled.

Some very nice vivid dreams. There were more earlier, but didn't record in the night so forgot them.

+ I'm standing on the curving edge of a steep drop-off with other people outside. To my left my attention is drawn to very bright yellow beautiful flowers. They are vertically stacked along the stem, and they're a crinkled shap like snap-dragons, which I think they are at first. I see that there are several sets of these flowers growing on plants along the edge. I go and look at them closely and determine they're not snapdragons. They're more frilly than solid and have taken on a slight orange-ish tinge.

I lean forwards and take off flying over the open space? I feel the acceleration when I bank and "pull up" but I don't see anything. Later I'm talking to someone about my flying and I say this to them.

+ Outside, daylight? along dirt/wet pathways. Behind me is a large crowd of people at a distance, I move away from them. I look back and they're still coming at me so I start running. They seem to be closer. I run in to a house and hide inside. I peek out of some small openings at the road outside, it's quite bright outside but nobody can see me because I'm in a darker inside and the windows are small. I'm surprised to see nobody is outside looking for me.

I'm outside starting a fire with some guy. He's gathering dry brown leaves right there on the ground and lighting them. We're putting very small twigs on the fire, I'm leaning over and blowing gently on it, it almost goes out bit catches. Then the fire is burning in a small pit/hole in the dirt, and the special feature of this pit is that there is a hole dug out of the "back" of the pit, which I think is giving excellent air flow to the fire, and allowing it to burn very well.

+ I'm a passenger in a car which is driving up a ramp (covered in snow?) that is leading to a level above ground level (but open to the sky). There are some people around. I think this is a sneaky back way to get to the place where we're going and I "remember" having been before. I'm not entirely sure this path will lead there, but apparently it does. Our car jumps over the side barrier and is heading for a tall structure a short distance away. We're not going to make it to the top of the structure: we smash through a little bit below the top and land on the ground. I tell the (driver?) that I should have pulled on the instant-stop brakes to avoid the collision.

I'm walking and there are some people in the distance. Encounter a female DC and get bold and grab her and

Spoiler for brief sexy encounter:

spread her legs and give her some oral attention. [Lightly lucid?] I'm concerned about the dream ending, but I hold on

I'm then sitting with another girl on my lap, our heads are nuzzling each other. There's another girl there standing nearby. I'm telling them they need to sign up for the next class. I say this several times. The standing girl says her parents want to talk to me. I tell her again that she still needs to sign up for the next session.

+(f) I'm sitting in the driver seat of a car, I see a guy I "know' / "recognize" from before [FALSE] approach the car from the front, I'm looking at him through the windshield, we converse briefly about something?

Meh.

+(vague, f) playing pool?

+(vague, f) on a freeway in a car?

+ Getting into a large back seat of a SUV-like vehicle. There are about 4-5 seats in this row. The far seat on the side away from me is occupied by a girl. I want to go sit next to her but think it's wouldn't be prudent.

+ I'm inside a large room/building like a library with desks and bookcases all over, we are shepherding some "bad?" guy with us and tell him to get into a little cubby like under a desk, and to stay there.

+ I'm in a home, a living room, I'm sitting on a couch and one of my cousins comes up (don't see face) and sits beside me, close. She's wearing red dress. She pulls her legs up under her to the side on the couch. I know what somebody close to me had died recently but didn't think of whom it was. I know her family was also affected. I ask her "So....how are things?" (referring to the death). She answered "we had a simple dinner, just spaghetti." I put my right and on her leg.

Some people come in to the party. One of them is JM [company 3] (sort of looks like him). I get up and shake his hand. He hands me a birthday present, it's a small rectangular long and narrow package like a pen would be wrapped in. I open it and I see some purple things inside. I then realize that the present was for the host and now I'm going to get it for opening his present and feel pretty stupid about that.
