No recall today, but it was a restful night. I woke up feeling refreshed and well.

To bed around 10:15pm
Wake a bit before 6am
Some fragment about fruit?
Another fragment about dream?
Not sure though. Had more recalled as I lay there motionless but it disappeared.

While I do not recall any dreams from last night, but no headache this morning and a good mood, feeling well grounded. So whatever dreams I had, I deduce they were most likely positive.

Just recall a fragment, but there were some kind of tools which were different in some way if my children were nearby. One time I was looking for my kids who were hiding, and I was almost ready to give up when someone reminded me I had these tools in the car, and they indicated that my kids were nearby, and it turned out they had been hiding in the car.

I think i was male, anyway definitely not my waking self. In this dream I knew the nature of my reality. To clarify: this was a non-lucid dream, but I believed I knew the nature of reality - that was part of the content of the dream - and in the dream I did not mean by that whether or not it was a dream. In this dream there was a powerful cast of high priests/priestesses, and all of us were connected to some sort of electric web. I at some point changed the current in this Web. The priests/priestesses immediately reacted that I must be stopped, but I was not worried (unstoppable?).

I have the strong sense that there was more to it, but that's all I recall.

I know I kind of woke up in the middle of the night. It was something conceptual, seemed more like an NREM thoughts memory than like REM dream, and to confirm that it was probably NREM, I was too groggy to follow through with writing it down. I remember I tried though: I remember lying there and trying to recall, and I had some of the concepts in my mind, I think the subject was dreams, but don't recall. Anyway, I never managed to actually write the concepts down, and I suspect even if I had given how groggy I was, they probably would have made little sense in the morning.

In the morning I woke up with a sinus headache second morning in a row, and no dream recall, but at least non-groggy.

4:00 fragment: dream of dream recall, and the revelation of a formula explaining what causes it to improve or wane. Time to understand, to wrap it up.there was also a chart. A man was presenting.

6:30 fragment: something about joining religious group?

No recall for tonight, no attempt at recall, and no excuse.

I had a dream. And as I lay still upon awakening, I stabilized its recall. I remember it was short but significant I felt: a brief insight into consciousness or awareness. Then my head moved slightly, and the insight was gone right away.

In this dream I had all the parts to build a car from scratch only it was not really a car, it stood for something else, and I think I knew that on some level even in the dream. I rember that I was not in a hurry to put it together, and in the end it was mostly parts still, but I had a better understanding of these parts. I wish I remembered more, I know there was more to it. Oh, I also recall that some people approach the problem backward, but that is also a valid approach.

To bed 10:30pm
Woke up 6:00am

I remember that I had these dreams or some of them anyway earlier in the night and did not write it down, now I remember bits and pieces.

Fragment 1: i wrote something about integrity, and was told it was off topic. I argued back that integrity was needed for this topic, and was told they would think about that.

Fragment 2: I was a college student and my waking life boss was my advisor/prof. There was something I wanted to get done before class, something administrative, and he objected, and said that coming to class on or before time was essential and the administrative thing could wait.

Fragment 3: My real life friend had some sort of major family event, and I took photos and needed to get them photocopied in color. Was told that I could get this done in someone's office who had a color printer/copier, but I would have to ask them whether it was ok to copy these photos.

Fragment 4: I don't recall much except that a former friend whom I do not have much interaction with anymore was in this dream. We were in some sort of big hall. There was a phone booth there or public pay phone. It rang. This friend, she went to answer it. It turned out my husband who was standing next to me not far from this phone was calling this former friend of ours (more of mine but also someone he had interacted), so now he was calling from his cell phone to this public phone. She had to pass us to go answer the phone. I think she began to suspect something even before she answered the phone. As soon as she answered it of course she knew that he was calling from a few steps away. He thought it was a good joke, and I agreed. But this friend, she seemed more annoyed than amused, I think.

I was a smart young man at a university in this dream, and I was in love with a young woman who clearly was not as smart, but liked to steal the show, but I loved her, and let her. So we were doing this very important presentation in class, which I think was "Mary Had a Little Lamb", and the presentation was supposed to be mine, but I let my girlfriend be a part of it, and she insisted on being the lamb, and that was the starring role so she pretty much took over. In mid presentation, the professor took her out of class, and told her she could no longer participate, but I got mad at the professor and insisted that was not fair and participate she must because we were a team.

After all that, I suggested to my love that she and I move away to raise sheep. Apparently a cousin of mine had won a lottery, and she bought this farm, and we could go there as long as we would take the elderly cousin with us.

The cousin was not that elderly after all, maybe on the early side of retirement age, and she proved very useful as a chaperone, because along with us there also came two unmarried young women. All day long young men who lived in the area would drive up in their cars to take a look at, wave at or chat up the two maidens. The young men strangely would not even get out of their cars. The chaperone would then be with the two unmarried young women.

11:15 some fragment about dreamviews. Don't remember what about, but the post was by Sageous

5:00am
Dream 1: Luckily not my job
I was working in some company in an executive level position. I then was offered participation in a project that looked very promising. I at first accepted.

Then a senior level executive asked for my involvement in a project that would have been a conflict of interest. I realized that I could not say no, but that I could not remain honest and agree.

I started the paperwork to quit the job, filed a notice, but it had to go to the man who had put me in this difficult position for approval, and approval was being delayed.

While at the cafeteria I was approached first by the wife and then by her husband who both worked for this company, and was told to make sure to involve the husband in this promising project I had been offered, and then I was shown a photo of my sleeping younger son: it was a threat, do this or else. They said, that I was in an enviable position. I differed but did not tell them.

I went to the secretary if the executive to whom I had filed my notice, and asked for the notice to be put on hold.

I then went either to the auditors or to law enforcement with a list of approximate times and places during which some inappropriate incident had occurred, and I suggested that they pull security camera footage for that time. I thought that once all was done there would be at least six people exposed. Could these auditors or law enforcement keep me and my son safe? I sure hoped so. I felt I had no choice, this was the only thing I could do. I woke up while they were showing the security camera footage to everyone assembled.

Dream 2: My job but not my office - wish file copy were as fast as a ninja
A tech support person was moving files on C drive of server because it would run out of space. I had not realized that he was doing it, but was on a conference call with him and several others anyway. Someone asked "But would this prevent Outlook from working on the server?" His reply "I didn't know it needed to work there." In reality it does not, but in my dream I said "I use it there all the time." He started shuffling things some more to make this to work. I could see his actions on my screen. There was also a message box informing me that the tech was logged in and working. It said his name was Rory (like in Dr. Who TV series), it had an anime avatar showing for him, and a button allowing one to enter chat with him labelled "Ask Question". A coworker who walked by and glanced on screen and saw how fast things were moving (unrealistically fast), remarked "He is as fast as a ninja." I agreed. One other thing that was different than in reality was the office layout which was very open, with this monitor clearly set up to be visible by anyone passing by, and it was all in a large open space unlike my real office.

This dream started out with the king visiting, and my looking in our home bar for three types of liquor for the king. (We don't have a bar, nor a king in waking life

But then the focus shifted, and I was looking for books to sell. I carried many of them to a garage sale to sell. They were very heavy. But once I got there I looked through them one more time, and decided I was not willing to part with most of them after all. And so the dream ends with me carrying my heavy burden back home.

I found some ice cream out on the kitchen counter. I wondered how long it had been out, but it was still cold, and so I took some.

I went into the bedroom (which was very dark) with the ice cream. Asked my husband how long had the ice cream been out, but I am already eating it. My husband said a long time.

Meanwhile my older son woke up, comes to the bedroom, and grabs the ice cream out of my hand.

The dream ended with me clutching my son's hand with all my strength to prevent him from eating the ice cream which has probably gone bad.
