Lucid-Wannabe's Dream Journal

I've been pretty busy the past few days and lost some focus, recall hasn't been great! These dreams were from two days ago.


The unbalanced soldier

I’m on a large stage playing the role of a soldier for a movie. There is some sort of ceremony going on. There are soldiers on either side of me in a long row, we all take a seat at the same time into chairs that are right behind us. I rock back on my chair and am balancing on the back legs, I lose balance and fall backwards.

The lead actor Tom Cruise comes over and helps me up. The movie then goes through a timelapse cutscene of Tom showing me how to be a better soldier. There’s short shots of me saluting incorrectly, then him showing me the proper salute, then both of us doing it right - etc. It felt like a comedy.

Now I find myself seated in an audience, facing the same theater stage that I was on earlier. I push backwards to find that my chair isn’t bolted down and I again begin to balance on the back legs of the chair. I lose balance again and fall backwards. The man seated behind me begins helping me up, I notice it’s Arnold Schwarzenegger. I say to him “You know what, when I fall over it’s either you or Tom Cruise who seems to be helping me up.”


Dead battery

Tami and I are in a parking lot sitting in a car. Someone to the right of us is getting into their car and we notice it’s Linda. When we notice we call to her “Hey, Linda!” She nonchalantly pushes a large pizza box through our passenger window. She’s not saying much but we learn that her car battery is dead and needs a jump.

Linda begins pushing her car which is in neutral so it lines up with the front of my car. I head to my trunk and grab some jumper cables out of the back, Linda already took the jumper cables out of her car and approaches me. We measure both of the cables, mine are thicker but slightly shorter than hers - I grab hers and put mine away.

I notice that the rear of her car is lined up with the front of mine and that I would have to reposition my car so we were hood to hood. I also notice that we’re now parked on a large golf course. I head back over to my car but when I sit in the driver seat it almost feels like I sat into the side of a washing machine with my legs sticking out. It was nearly impossible to bring my feet in because the opening was too small, it felt so cramped.
