      Woo Hoo, a lucid last night Even though I've probably had like 15 of these in the last four months, the magic never wears off!

      Dream One: I'm securing a robot into a space ship. The robot isn't very happy about this, but he understands that he has done something wrong and this is the punishment by law not my choice. I'm sad because this robot is my friend and I don't want to send him away. He starts talking about how lonely he will be and how bored he will be with nothing to do but star at an empty space ship.Then, that when his punishment is over, no one he knows will still be left on earth. I want to do whatever I can to lesson his pain, so I go grab all of my favorite books. I bring them back to him and tell the robot that These are my favorite books. I'm sorry I have to send him off, but I hope that when he reads them he knows that back on earth we love and miss him. Then my husband gets a phone call. Hoping it's a reprieve for the robot, I rush over to see what's going on. He tells me that Kanone (Spiral the melody of logic, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-GaR...eature=related ) is in trouble and needs help, but no one knows where he is. I realize the robot probably knows where he is. So I go unbuckle the robot from it's space ship, and ask him if he knows where Kanone is. He says there are several places he could be, but he can check them all. I'm so grateful, and I tell him that if he does save someone, then his sins of accidentally killing someone will be nullified and he won't have to leave. I wake up. I can point out the origin of many of these elements. I watched the toonami April fools clips before bed, then read Star Wars The Clone Wars Secret Missions bk2 to the kids before bed... that's got to be where the robot and space ship came from. As for Kanone, Well Spiral sits on the book shelf over the foot of my bed, I see it (and all the Characters faces) every night before bed, lol. I think Kanone was the character to invade because he's my favorite :p

      Dream Two (Fragment): I'm driving through the small town we live in.

      Dream Three (Fragment): I'm hanging out with a bunch of guys, and they're all either gay or bi. I'm watching them all flirt with each other and laughing because they are so much fun to hang out with and totally no pressure. But then one of the Bi one starts hitting on me, and I'm not too comfortable with it. He makes the comment that with my short hair I can style it and be a cute girl or I can just brush it and look like a cute guy, and that makes me extra fun. There's a car at some point and we're all piling into it. We were also comparing pictures on cell phones and I forgot I had porn on mine and they all saw it

      Dream Four (Fragment): I'm in my room at the house I lived in as a teen. My aunt is there, and we're sitting on the floor looking at my cousin's pokemon cards that he was getting rid of. I decide I'm just going to go ahead and offer to buy all of them from the kid because I feel bad for him trying to save money for a PS3.

      Dream Five (Lucid): I wake up in my bed. I slowly open my eyes, and just lay back and relax a bit longer, I always hate waking up and want to go back to sleep, lol. Then I notice I can hear something, so I roll over so I can see the foot of the bed. The TV is on. There is a commercial on for Pokemon Trading cards. I think that's weird and funny because I just had a dream about Pokemon cards, what a coincidence. Then I stop and think, wait, why is the TV on? I can't fall asleep with a TV on. Could this be a dream? Maybe someone turned the TV on... It feels really realistic... But then dreams often are so super real it's crazy. (The fact that the room is my OLD room from when I was a teenager and I don't even HAVE a TV in my room now didn't register) So I get up, and I start walking down the hallway. I think I need to reality check, so I try to plug my nose, I can still breathe. Then I question it, wait... am I pinching hard enough? Maybe I'm awake and I'm just not pinching hard enough. So I decide to try another one and count my fingers. I'm making it into the living room now and I'm counting on one hand, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven... then I start to move to the other hand and stop myself... seven? Seven fingers on one hand? Really? COOL! My grandma is sitting in a chair to my right, I turn to her and hold my hand out, "Check it out Grandma! I'm lucid dreaming! See? I have seven fingers!" She's a spoil sport and just says, "If you say so." I'm still doubting myself at this point too, thinking there's a small possibility that I might be awake (forgetting the fact I haven't lived in that house for seven years, lol.) But I decide I've done my reality checks and they failed, I just have to trust myself and DO SOMETHING. But I haven't had any lucids in so long, I can't even remember what my goals are and what I should do. So I decide that instead of trying anything big, I'm just going to try to get past my skepticism and take a risk. I walk to the front door and open it. Everything looks like it should (for that house). All the houses are in the right place as is the street. I feel really self conscious about the fact that I'm in a night gown still, but I tell myself this is a dream, it doesn't matter. I try to close my eyes and imagine myself in shorts and a t shirt. Doesn't work, so I just tell myself fuck it, it'll turn into a shirt and T shirt if I just keep moving and just assume that it is jeans and a T shirt. I walk out side, and down the front walk to the drive way. By this point my clothes are in fact jeans and a T shirt, just because I assumed they would be, yay! There are a couple of vans parked in the driveway. My cousins are in one, and my nephews in another, and my neighbors (from my current house) in yet another. Everyone is getting out of the vans like they're there for a visit. I wave, but don't want to quit moving and get sucked back into the dream scape. My aunt yells hello, so I yell hello back, then tell her, "Can't hang out yet, I'm in a lucid dream!" and she replies, "I know you are!" to which I laugh and say, "Of course you know, your just a dream character! You knew I was dreaming even before I did I bet!" (referring to seeing her in the previous dream) Then I make it to the road, start walking up it, and realize all my dream characters are following me. Even the neighbors in their yards are leaving to follow me.. Now that I'm awake I consider it pretty creepy having a 15+ dream character mob behind you, but in the dream I was like, "Oh, they're following me so we can do a musical number about the joys of lucid dreaming!" Suddenly I realize this is a good time to remind myself I'm dreaming, because I could way too easily get sucked back into the dream thinking about musical numbers, lol. I look up into the sky, now remembering that I am in fact dreaming. I see a flock of birds and I decide to try and shoot them with my fingers. I don't want to kill them or anything, just see if I can make them disappear because I've heard that you can make DCs disappear by pointing at them. I point at the birds. Nothing happens. I say, "Pow!" nothing happens. I consider doing the same to the DC in front of me, because they're all catching up now... but I reconsider, even if this is just a dream, I don't want to see any blood and gore if I mess up! So instead I briefly wonder if I need to stabilize, remembering that Ophelia had told me in the Lucid dreaming class that stabilizing might help my control. But then the only stabilizing method I can remember is the one where you crawl on the ground, and I really don't want to crawl on the road, lol. SO Instead I decide I'm going to try to make a Mcdonalds appear at the end of the road. I imagine a mcdonalds being there, but when I open my eyes what I get is a floating brown and yellow rounded cartoonish building (like this block set: http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/4/0/5...3312892_tp.jpg ) and it has giant floating cookies for steps to climb to it. I start to climb, but then change my mind and turn back to the dream characters. I tell them, "I gotta go guys, I'm going to try and do something productive with this dream and I have a LOT of questions to ask someone." Then I grab the nearest DC, who happens to be a fat balding guy, and tell him, "Do me a favor when you leave ok? Tell Kurasawa I am Lucid and I need to talk to him. He can find me here at this McDonalds I just made." The dream character says, "Aight." then leaves (I'm in the south, everyone has a redneck accent, even me. Mines at least not as bad as most because people still refuse to believe that I am from here b/c according to them I have a "yankee" accent, but according to my friends up north my accent is most definitely southern, lol.) I start trying to climb the cookies, and it's just not working. They're wiggling and tipping too much. I get mad, and just reach up and grab the bottom of the door frame of this McDonalds and give it a good tug downwards. It falls to the ground, but suddenly looks like a kids play house. No way am I going to be able to fit in there, let alone me and Kurasawa. I grab the edges and start pulling and stretching it. I have to stretch it wide first, then I have to stretch the top to make it tall enough, then it's only like 6 inches deep, so I have to push on the back to stretch it out. There's no McDonalds furniture or people or cookware inside, and I'm annoyed. All that's in there is a little pink table with purple chairs and a regular white oven. I remember thinking that shiny white oven looks so out of place in this very pink and purple play house. That's about the time my kids woke me up.

      Note to self, review Lucid goals at least twice a week from this point on, even if not Reality Checking on a daily bases b/c of being on vacation. Apparently it doesn't have to be the main thing on my brain for it to happen, lol.
