Dream One: I'm in the car with my husband driving on an interstate. We pass a red roof inn and I realize we're on vacation and that's the hotel we're going to be staying at. We exit the interstate to the right using a little hidden exit. It's dark, and the exit is surrounded by woods and trees. I can't see the road but I'm sure that my husband can because for some reason I think he has a better view in the drivers seat. I call my BFF, Ambies, thinking that she's following us and I want to warn her to be careful. The exit ends up exiting at some sort of moving platform. We drive the car onto the platform, and then it takes us on some sort of tour talking about a girl who died by drowning, and then the tour says that since we listened to her story the girl would keep us safe on our journey and protect us from drowning ourselves. Then the platform stops in the middle of a lake where I can see someone has built a road just under the water to create that "safe from drowning" effect to give the tour a cool end. My husband doesn't see the road though and drives the car off it and into the actual lake -_- I freak out and tell him he was supposed to stay on the road, and he tells me the tour said we'd be safe from drowning! But the car is sinking anyways, so somehow we stick our feet out of the car Flintstones style and walk the car back towards shore before it grows too heavy for us to carry. We climb out the windows and my husband says he's sleepy right now, we'll have someone tow the car in the morning.

Dream Two: I'm in a small pond or pool with a little pier that extends into the pool so you can see into the water and feed the fish. There's a huge mansion in the distance, and a guy with long dark hair, dark circles under his eyes, and bright red eyes. He's sitting on the pier cross legged. It's the middle of the night but it's a full moon so I can see really well. I swim closer to the pier and I can see the guy is eating. I feel like we're good friends, and so I decide to joke with him. I ask him if what he's eating is a red eye meal, referring to how his eyes are red. He says yes flatly and then goes on to explain that it has blood in it and would make me sick if I ate it. From this I gather he's probably a vampire or something. I swim along the side of the pier towards the shore, and out of the water. I start to walk back up the pier soaking wet and apparently wearing a long white gown that's stuck to my skin. Suddenly there's a big gust of wind that blows me backwards causing me to fall to the ground. The guy jumps up, and half turns to me to ask if I'm alright, but never takes his eyes off the water. I look out across the water and see a young teenage girl hoovering above the water. She's wearing long flowing grey layers of sheer material that float around her in the wind. She also had the same red eyes as the guy. She floats in the air to the pier, and then kneels down at the guys feet. She looks up at him and calls him her love and asks him why he's shunned her. He doesn't reply, instead he grabs her by the face and lifts her off the ground, then tosses her into the water. Apparently, once she touches the water, she starts sinking and screaming. She's struggling to stay above water, reaching up, but she can't even tread water because it's like she's being pulled downwards and engulfed by the water. I am completely freaked out, but the guy is unphased and merely says that she shouldn't have tried to hurt me. He walks towards me and helps me up off the ground then pulls me by the elbow towards a gate in an iorn fence around the house and it's grounds. He tells me that this place isn't safe right now, and as we're walking through the gate we are surrounded by people with faces like in that painting "The Scream". The people twist and float and scream around us about how their master, the one who fed them, is dead and it's all the guys fault. He tells me that these people are no longer people, but ghosts given physical form by drinking the life blood of a vampire. He seems to think this is something forbidden, but also that he can not defeat so many ghouls at once. I wake up.

Dream Three: I dream about waking up and drinking a bottle of water because I am soooo thirsty. I actually wake up and drink a whole bottle of water afterwards. I felt like I hadn't had any water in ages I was so thirsty!

Dream Four(Fragment): I'm at the lake and my son is playing with a rainbow beach ball. It keeps rolling down hill into the water and I have to get it for him

Dream Five(Fragment): I'm in a class, sitting in a circle outside. I open my purse and pull out a little book that says "Disciplinary notes" and I flip through it. They're mostly blank, but some say Merry Christmas. One had a picture and a joke written on it about a hippo and crack, but I can't remember the joke now that I'm awake.

Dream Six(Fragment): I'm going to a shop where you can buy crochet supplies. They're offering a free knitted sweater to anyone who makes a purchase. Someone asks me if I knit, and of course I tell them no but I know a bit about crochet.

Dream Seven(Fragment): I'm a ghost hunter on some sort of tv show. I'm revisiting a house that we once featured. For some reason our sponsor is a phone company, and all our shows participants get free phone service for a year. The woman who owns the house complains that the phone company cut her off before her year was up with no explanation. I promise to talk to my producer and find out what happened for her and get her service back if possible. I wonder for a moment how we reached her to set up this appointment when she had no phone, but then we all sit down to dinner and I let it drop. At Dinner her son goes upstairs, then there's suddenly a hole in the ceiling. I think her kid is in the ceiling, but it turns out to be a ghost.

I had a couple of long dreams last night, but I'm lazy and going to shorten them :p

Dream One: I was at my grandpa's house (who has been dead for over a year now) My brothers ex girlfriend was there, and she had a horse and a dog, but only one lead line for both. They kept getting away, and I'd take the lead line and fetch one, then by the time I got the one animal back to the house the other would have taken off into the woods or towards the street and I'd have to go rescue that one, just to have the cycle repeat. At last I insisted we find another lead line, and when I was looking for it in a shed, I ended up finding a cat with kittens. At some point the horse starts rubbing it's neck against me, and I remember how warm and happy I was to hug the horse. I forgot how much an animals "hug" can feel like hugging your best friend, lol.

Dream Two: I was in an old historical area driving downtown, trying to find my way and constantly getting lost.

Dream Three: I'm looking at a store display for a new sims game, and thinking to myself that I've seen this game in my dreams. It was a 60s style stuff pack for the game, and I kept thinking this is so awesome! I dreamed this pack before it came out. If only I'd realized I was STILL dreaming -_-

I got up earlier than usual today, and was in a hurry so I had no time to think back on my dreams. AS a result, all I have is this:

I was playing Assassins Creed II, free running, but for some reason I was following Altair and Maria.

Dream One: I'm in the car in the backseat with my mom Driving. Apparently we're going to visit my family in SC. We're in the driveway of the house I lived in before my parents divorced, ad my mom is waiting for her best friend, her best friends mom, and a man and his son that in the dream I think is her boyfriend and his son. I think I woke up, but only half way here because the next thing i know I'm laying in what I think is the crawl space for that house with my husband. I'm telling him how when my brother and I were kids we always felt like this house was creepy and had bad energy, so we decided there must be a body in the crawl space. For some reason though, the crawl space has a concrete floor, and I realize this isn't a crawl space at all, it's the basement. Then I see a cat running around, and it reminds me of sesame street. I start wondering what it'd be like if there were sesame street characters here, and the next couple minutes of the dream are spent "watching" sesame street characters wander about the house looking for a grown up. Then one of them has to go to the bathroom, and starts crying. The dreams switches back to first person and I'm walking up to the purple sesame street monster and asking what's wrong. It's afraid It'll get poop on it's fur when it goes to the bathroom, . I try to take it to the bathroom anyways, but then Chewbacca is in the bathroom, and he's got a solution for the fur problem. He's got a zipper installed in his fur so he can unzip his bottom area and go. I leave the sesame street monster in the bathroom with Chewie, he's better equipped to handle this situation than I am. I walk back out to the driveway and see my mom. She's talking about packing the car, and I grab a bag and start helping her pack. Then she starts talking about the man in the chewbacca costume. She's marveling at how the dude still fit sin the costume when he's gained 30 pounds. I say I wish I could still fit in my clothes if I'd gained that much weight, that's crazy! I wake up, lol.


Dream Two(Fragment): I didn't take any notes on this one -_- I was at a school with my mom and my used to be step brothers and sisters. The youngest step sister goes down an escalator because she's looking for something. The rest of us "kids" follow her, leaving my mom and some man upstairs. When we catch up to the youngest, we find that we can't get back upstairs to my mom because the escalator only goes one way, down! In the end, I somehow mange to send my mom a telepathic message that we're downstairs and can't get back upstairs and they come downstairs to find us. I woke up as soon as they made it to us.

Adding in the dream from my nap

I was playing Assassins Creed II doing the "capture the flag" race I had done last night. Instead of racing a guard though, I was racing this big hulking red demon guy with horns and a giant ax. I kept having to restart the mission because I'd kill the demon guy, or get killed myself. At one point, instead of a flag, we were trying to capture a bowling ball and it rolled into the waterways. I dove into the water to get it, but the demon guy couldn't swim, so I had all the time in the world to explore (well, until I woke up anyways) I found that under the water was a big modern day city in ruins. I was swimming around the tall building and admiring how much seaweed had grown up on them and even thought for a moment that I saw a yellow bus. Then I remembered I needed to check my map to see where the bowling ball went. I woke up when I started back to find the target, lol.

Again mostly dream fragments. I've been too distracted to think much about dreaming lately and it shows. It's starting to bug me though, so I'm going to pick up the reality checking habit and note taking again. Especially since the whole thing that got me distracted was spurred by dreams anyways, lol.

Dream One(Fragment): I'm driving around an unfamiliar city looking for the building my BFF works at. I find it, and think it looks different from how I imagined it, then I wake up.

Dream Two(Fragment): I'm in a car with my dad, he's taking me to a Def Leppard Concert. Everyone is wearing shirts with American flags on them. I feel out of place because my own shirt doesn't have one.

Dream Three(Fragment): I'm watching as a pokemon, Scyther, breaks into a lab and is trying to bust a Hitmonchan out of a cage.

Dream Four(Fragment): I'm in the kitchen in the house I lived in as a teen. The dead friend I've been dreaming about a lot lately is texting me. Apparently he's done something wrong and he's going to jail for four years. I'm sad at first because I won't see him for four years because of this, but then I'm happy when I realize that means I will see him again in four years! I wake up really happy, then realize that it was just a dream and he's really still gone forever and very nearly miss crying.

My recall is terrible lately, and I'm not sure why. Yesterday I didn't recall anything. Today I can only remember two dreams, and only parts of those

Dream One: I get a call from people mentioned in an entry a few days back. L calls me, and wants me to come over and hang out. In the dream my kids are napping, so I leave them with my grandmother and go visit L. When I get there, I realize that L and B live together, and for some reason I think this is odd. I feel like B had a crush on L, because B is gay, and I wonder how the whole living together when L isn't is working out. I wonder if L even knows B likes him, but decide not to say anything. We hang out, and L is a lot more playful and cheerful than I ever thought he was (again, L was a friend of a friend that I lost years ago, I never really knew him well, just saw him with the friend every now and then. I don't really know what his personality is like, just what I assumed it was like from what I saw when I saw him with the friend. I have no clue why he keeps showing up in my dreams :/ ) For some reason we go outside, and there's a swimming pool with a cargo net hanging above it so you can limb the net and fall into the water. L climbs it, and jumps down, ridiculously jovial the entire time. I keep wondering to myself, was he always this happy? And I feel completely out of place because I'm not an athletic person, and I really don't see what's so fun about climbing a net and falling back into the water over and over again. B is standing back looking pretty smug, so I step back to talk to him, and somehow the conversation drifts to the crush it seems like he has on L. He tells me he did have a crush on L, but doesn't so much anymore. Then he tells me that he's glad I'm not having as much fun with L because he was afraid L and I would become good friends and he would have been really jealous of that. L comes back in, and I ask him what kid of job he has that he can afford a pool w/ a cargo net. He tells me he's buying and reselling houses, and I find that odd considering the current economy. Then I wake up before I can question it enough to become lucid.

Dream Two (fragment): I'm in bed with someone, snuggling up against him. It's daylight in the dream though, and I have no clue who the person was as I never saw his face. I feel like I'm at some sort of convention or something, but it's weird, like it's more about music that Anime or Manga, so maybe it wasn't a convention but a music festival or something. The door opens, and some friends who I don't actually talk to, just chat on FB a lot with, come in the room. They want up to hurry up and wake up and get ready to go down to the street where there's going to be a party? I think one of the friends was going to paint our faces because she's a face painter.

Dream One(Fragment): I'm in a house, talking to a woman. Suddenly I have a "vision" of a small boy being killed. I ask her where her son is, and she tells me he's with his older brother outside. I rush outside to make sure the little boy is ok, but instead find that the older brother is indeed murdering the younger brother, stabbing him over and over violently. The little boy is laying on a stone alter, I figure that's probably important b/c it would mean he's a sacrifice of some sort. It was still very disturbing.

Dream Two: I am at a cook out of some sort that it seems my BFF's mom is hosting. I'm standing by the grill taking to Ambies's mom and her boy friend. Then I need to go to the bathroom. I leave the bathroom, and Ambies goes in behind me. As I'm walking through the living room to go outside, I notice that on the tv screen I can see Ambies's reflection in the mirror, and rationalize that somehow her phone has synced with the TV and her camera has turned on and if showing her getting ready to go to the bathroom in the reflection. I turn off the TV before she even gets her pants unbuttoned, and then go outside. We start hearing wolves outside, and then Ambies's mom freaks out about their dog running around and how it's possible it could be eaten by wolves. We all go inside, and call the dog in with us. Then Ambies and her mom start talking about seeing a psychic, and how she gave them a potion so they'd dream the future. They give me a small heart shaped bottle and tell me that it's the potion, they got some extra for me. I'm nervous to take it, think it'll make me sick or mess up the dreams I already have. I drink it, then wake up.

Dream Three: I'm in a building where they're having elections for some sort of student office. Then all hell breaks loose and one of the candidates goes missing. When everything calms down, they give his job to someone else. I go upstairs, and then a guy busts through the wall. It's the missing student, and he doesn't know that everything is ok now and the offices are decided. He's freaking out that everyone get to the gym for the elections, and so we all go to calm him down. I remember stopping at one point and yelling loudly that everyone return to the gym for re-elections.

It was after 2:30 before I fell asleep last night, and the roofers showed up at 7 am. Working with less than 5 hours of sleep, so mostly just fragments today.

Dream One(Fragment): I'm watching videos on youtube... exactly what I did before bed, lol.

Dream Two (Fragment): Images of Spiders and the house we may be moving into.

Dream Three: I'm in a house I don't recognize. In the dream it feels like some sort of group home or something where a lot of people live and pay for a room and use of the common areas as opposed to having their own separate apartments. I look outside and I see a pool that is in total disrepair. I decide to go out and start cleaning it so we can use it. I rake leaves and sticks, then I'm trying to scrape the mold off it and the concrete is whittling away under my scraper. It starts to thunder and rain, so I go back inside. Out the window I can see the driveway is gravel, and the neighbors kids are being dropped off by the bus. I think I'm supposed to baby sit the one kid that I used to baby sit, so I open the door and tell him to hurry up and get inside before he is so wet he ruins the furniture. He tells me his big brother is home so I don't have to watch him today. Then I wake up to the roofers knocking on the door!

Dream One: I'm driving down the road with my husband in the passenger seat. It's dark, and hard to see. I go completely blind and can't see at all, next thing I know I'm off the road in a corn field trying to put on my brakes and steering all over the place. I freak out, but my husband tells me to calm down. I relax, and when I can see well again, I start driving back onto the road.

Dream Two: I'm in a building that's being remodeled. I'm admiring the place, and then I see my husbands mom's boyfriend. He tells me he's been working on this house all day. Then I walk around a bit more, and then my husbands moms boyfriend turns into my husbands dad and his wife. The wife is telling me to look closer at some clear glass stones set in the wall on the other side of the room. When I get closer, I can see they're not glass stones at all, they are glass bottles that are surrounded by concrete to make a wall. One of the bottles is green and square and had a little pirate ship built inside it. You can see through the bottles into the room on the other side, it's a very cool effect!

Dream Three(Fragment): I'm in an elevator or something with my son and Reggie from Nintendo. We're talking about the 3ds and Pokemon. My little boy is so excited to meet him, and I explain to him that when we told my son that someone from Nintendo would be at his pokemon card night next month, the first thing he asked is "Is it going to be Reggie?!" Reggie laughs and tells my son it's nice to meet him. I think I saw Miyamoto at some point too, but I can't remember.

Dream Four(Fragment): I dreamed my mom was kidnapped by terrorists and they wanted $100,000 for her safe return. I find this odd because that's a lot of money to ME, but by general kidnapping standards it sounds pretty low... and why would terrorists want money not a political advantage of some sort? In the dream I call 911, but I don't want to call my brother or grandma and worry them. I'm told by 911 that I need to drive to a city over an hour away to get the paperwork to fill out before they can help me.

Dream Five: I'm trying to fall asleep. I'm laying on a sidewalk, trying to sleep under my covers. Only the covers are covers I had several years ago, not the current bed set I have. I hear a buss, and I'm not happy that it's dropping off the kids who live in the house I'm at. The weird thing is, I'm trying to sleep in front of the house I grew up in, and the kids being dropped off are a little kid from my sons preschool class and my best friends sister (who is suddenly ten years younger, lol) I think to myself I'm never going to fall back asleep now. I try to pretend like I'm asleep anyways though so they won't disturb me, and throw my covers over my head. My friends sister walks right past me, but the little boy tries to sit on me. Then I tell him to go away so I can sleep and he cries because he's scared of being home alone and I'm the only grown up around. Then I wake up because my daughter really is laying in my bed, with her feet on top of my stomach... no wonder I felt sat on!

Last night's dreams were so boring, but I did a lot of boring stuff yesterday so it's hardly a wonder. All I really did was clean house and go shopping for things to reorganize the house :/ I'm going to be sure and do something "fantasy" related tonight like play video games or read a book so that I have some fun influences for tonight's dreams

I couldn't sleep last night, so at 5:30 am I took some NyQuil knowing I'd have fuzzy dreams if any at all because it'd put me in a deeper sleep and the kids wouldn't let me sleep for long. Sure enough we were up at 10:30. Still, I got a fragment out of those five hours

Dream Fragment: I'm arguing with a guy on the phone. Not like talking though, we're texting. It's something about a magic spell that's at his house or his parents house or something. I'm telling him we need to get it, and he shouldn't have just left it there. He's picking on me and texts me "Our poor baby! That spell was practically an elemental!" then sends me a little "smiley" icon that is actually a water drop shape and it's crying. I wasn't upset though, I found it funny and charming. At some point I was walking in an outdoorsy setting towards him while he was trying to text me back. I don't even remember what he looked like though, lol.

Last nights dreams were so boring in comparison to the one last night, I almost lazied out on writing this morning.

Dream One (Fragment): I dreamed that I began work at a gaming magazine. In the dream it's just me and a handful of guys though. They want a female perspective on their magazine, and I tell them the biggest qualms I have with gaming magazines as both a chic and a mom. I feel like chic games don't get as much article space as "manly" games, and as a mom I wish they had a section for tiny gamers. I wish they showed more games for preschoolers and showed a better idea of what ages can play the game based on how difficult it is, and what games would be good for beginner gamers.

Dream Two (Fragment): I'm getting a new apartment. I'm looking for it in the building, and discover it's right next to the on site auto shop (do they even have those in apartment complexes? I've never heard of such a thing, lol) and I worry I'm not going to be able to sleep there and my quest to lucid dream is going to go down the drain. Never did realize I was dreaming while I was worrying about lucid dreaming -_-

Dream Three: I'm suddenly attending some strange boarding school. I'm walking to my class, and I notice we have three green houses, but none of them actually have plants in them. Instead two are being used as cat houses and one is being used as an aviary for tropical birds. So I get to my "class" and it's just a couple other students, and a professor... except we're not in a class room, it's an outdoor class on the playground. Me and the other students sit on the swings and the teacher is sitting on a seesaw. He's teaching about taking care of our surroundings and doing volunteer work for the good of the community. He mentions that the playground needs to be repainted, especially the swing set, and I volunteer to do so. None of the other students want to help though. The teacher tells me he's got to go buy the paint, so we'll do it later, then class is dismissed. I then walk inside the school building, where my aunt and uncle are waiting for me. They are talking to me about how my cousins are and if I like this place. I tell them it's cool. then my aunt gives me a couple of gift packs of bath and body stuff, it's supposed to be rose scented, but it says Star Trek on it and it has... the millennium falcon on it? I don't know how the heck I missed that reality check. I probably laughed it off as the manufacturers not doing their research -_- I take the bath sets to my room and set them in the bathroom, then I wake up.

Dream Four: I'm walking down a hall with my son. We're at the movies looking for the theater. We find it, but they lights keep going down then coming back up, and the volume is sooo low we can't hear the movie. A girl with long straight hair comes in to fix it, but it keeps going down again. Then everyone in the theater starts talking, and a boy with sandy colored hair starts talking about how we should all be friends because he could use some more friends and at least making friends with people would turn this otherwise negative movie trip into a good one. He starts assigning everyone jobs as his friends. He's going to make one dude his gaming buddy to play video games with, he assigns one girl the job of his girl friend, another guy his shopping buddy, and another one his nerdy friend to help him fix his computer and stuff. I just sit back and watch all this, then wake up before he's done.

Really quickly will relate my short dreams from last night, then a bit about a past dream because I'm VERY excited about it right now

Dream One(Fragment): I dreamed about buying my little girl those Monster High dolls she likes. Actually, more like I dreamed about opening the packages after I had bought them. :/

Dream Two: I dreamed that I was texting my brother. Apparently I had texted him and asked him if he believed in aliens. He texted me back saying he was sick of crazy people and pilots talking about aliens, they don't exist. Then he texted me again saying he ran into Aliens in a video game and it was hilarious. So he sends me a video of him playing Xbox and he's miming throwing a grenade at the screen and the character does the same (so apparently this is a Kinect game, I don't think my brother has Kinect IWL) and he says in a normal voice tone, "Squeeeee!" and the "alien" on the screen has like all these crazy tentacles and shit and looks like the Aliens in the movie "Aliens". Anyways, the alien looks at the grenade and it seems to be a dude, but when my brother says, "Squeeeee!" the aliens head explodes. Then he sends me another video of him throwing a rock at one in the game and it doing nothing, but then he says, "Squeeee!" and the aliens head explodes.

That's it for dreams, I only slept about 6 hours, so I've only got the early dreams to recount. But, I'm so excited today because my "Kurasawa" ring finally came in. Back story here being the first dream I had of him ( 2-8-11, Important dreams from the past: K's Original Dream - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views) there was a ring involved. I've been looking for one like it ever since. Well, a month ago I found one in an avon catalog, and I was pretty psyched... Had to RC a few times before I believed it because as common as the design seemed, I could not find it ANYWHERE. and now, after waiting for what seems like forever it'd off back order and has arrived I know it's not the sort of thing someone might usually get all up and excited about, but it's so amazing for me. The only place I've ever seen this ring is in my dreams, and it's appeared in several. Now I have this link in my waking life to my dreams. Every time I see it I will have to RC because this thing "originated" in the dream world, and I've only seen it in dreams before. I hope this helps with my DILDs. Also, its just amazing knowing that something from my dreams is now a part of my waking life. ^_^ It makes it that much easier to believe that other parts of our dreams aren't just random impossibilities created by our minds, but can be found in your real life as well if you follow the right pursuits and don't give up. / excited girly rambling

Dream One: I'm a young boy, maybe 10 or so, and I'm with an older brother who has long dark hair. We're traveling inside a pod inside of a large dragon. (necessary background info here: In the dream, giant dragons roam the earth burning and eating anyone they see, so brave men hitch rides on the dragons, and put little inflatable houses under their scales. Then inflate them. Once inflated, the move the scales enough that people can hide underneath them, and the scales are so thick and strong the dragon can't get to the people underneath them. So houses are made INSIDE the Dragon's skin. I wonder sometimes how I dream this shit up, lol.) My brother is angry because he thinks we shouldn't be hiding from the dragons. He's convinced hat we can befriend the dragons by singing to them b/c our grandpa told him that when he was young. But Grandpa had never tried it and everyone laughed at the idea. This brother, who was probably close to 18 or 19, sneaks out of the dragons scales, and begins singing... The star spangled banner?! to the dragon, lmao. But it works, and the dragon begins to "sing" as well, which actually sounds like wind whipping through hallways or over bottles, only in different tunes and pitches. Then the dragon extends a giant claw, and the brother climbs up his finger, up his arm, and onto the Dragons back between the wings, and it takes to the air. I can just barely see my brother's foot from my space under the scales. I think it's amazing, he did it! He's braver than any warrior who ever inflated any scales, because he didn't just sneak, he got right out there in front of the dragon and proved us all wrong. Then I wake up.

Dream Two: I'm at the card store where we play Pokemon cards. I'm looking at these pretty wooden chests that you have to purchase and paint yourself. They have faeries carved int he top of them, and they have mirrors inside, they look more like jewelry boxes, not something you'd expect to see in a card shop. A BIG missed reality check there, lol. I walk away from the boxes and move to another shelf to look at card books. The lady who works there walks up to me and asks me if I'm going to have enough money to buy anything. Really rude and uncharacteristic of her, another missed reality check. I tell her I don't have any cash on me, but as soon as my husband shows up with the money I'll be buying something for sure. Eventually my husband shows up, and I tell him what I want, but then I leave by myself and leave him and the kids at the card shop. I go across the street, and there's a building there I feel like I should go into. I do, and I see a big box that appears to be in the wrong place. There's a guy in the building with Curly brown hair and big kind eyes. I ask him if he can help me move the box to the place where it belongs because it's so heavy! He says sure, then takes his shirt off. He's very muscular, and he even goes to all the trouble of flexing a few times for me ^_^ So I do what any good BFF would do, I whip out my camera phone and take pictures and send them to Ambies while he's flexing and lifting. Then My kids and husband come into the room, and my husband starts talking to the guy, and I wander off to see what my kids are doing. They've found some toys and are making a HUGE mess with them. I make them clean it up. When they clean up, my husband is ready to go, so we leave. We're walking down the street, and it's dark in the dream, and I notice there are stones on the side of the road with letters and words on them. I wake up.

Dream Three: I;m on my computer, and I click on a link. When I click the link, it drops me on some strange country road. I assume I'm in the county next to ours, and that if I walk a certain way I'll end up back at home. I actually tell myself that I shouldn't have clicked on that link not knowing where it would drop me, but then never realize that clicking on links don't deposit your physical body on roads, lol. After walking a bit, I Realize I'm going the wrong way, and turn around to walk to the other way. I come across a building that looks familiar, and remember that I can walk through that building as a short cut. AS I walk through the building, I remember it's an apartment complex and that I know some people there but it's been years since I've seen them. Just as I think this, I walk into a common room with a big screen TV and a few guys sitting around drinking beers and sodas and playing a video game. I try to sneak through without being seen, because I recognize them as an exboyfriend and his friends (though I never dated a guy like him, lol) I try to reason to myself that they knew me with long hair, and now my hair is short. Also, with my coat on, I look like a boy not a girl anyways. Just as I think I'm safe, the guy jumps up and says, "Hey, wait a minute! You look familiar..." And of course I just run off, lol. He chases me though, and I end up in a parking lot, where my BFF is parked waiting to pick me up. She gets out of the car when she sees me running, even though I'm yelling at her to get back in the car! Just as I'm reaching the car, the guy catches up and grabs my arm. He spins me around and looks me in the face, and he says, "It is you! You cut your hair!" I Look up at him, and he's so gorgeous, I'm actually embarrassed he's seeing me with my short hair (I have a love hate relationship with short hair, I either look great, or I look like a boy... there's no middle ground.) His own hair is dark and longer than mine, he's got a goatee thing going on, and his skin is a creamy tan, like coffee with milk in it. About the color of a native American guy I used to know, so maybe he was native American? Anyways, He was hot, and I'm finding myself embarrassed over my short hair, and I want there to be more between us, but then my BFF walks over and demands he let go of me. At that, his attention shifts to her, and he starts flirting with her. I'm really hurt by this, and I grab her arm and tell her, "lets go! This guys a creep!" and then drag her into her car, and I get behind the wheel. I'm trying to tell her in the car that I really still like him and it is NOT cool that she's letting him flirt with her (this bringing up ancient memories of ten years ago when she started flirting with the guy she knew I liked and had been flirting with for a couple weeks, and managed to make him like her in no time flat... This whole dream was full of insecurities and crap ) So then as we're stopping at the end of the apartments "driveway" the car wants to roll even though I've got the brakes on. So I back it up to keep it from being in the middle of traffic, only it keeps rolling forwards. Then it gets stuck in reverse! And the brakes aren't working either, so we're going backwards up the road, and freaking out. Finally I decide that I'm going to try to slow the car down by jumping out and holding onto it and using my feet as traction on the road. Ambies gets in the driver seat and pushes the breaks as hard as she can and steers the car towards the side of the road as I'm trying to hold it back and slow it down. Finally it's in the grass and going slow, so she takes the key out and we're safe. Then a car pulls up and a couple get out. The woman is dressed in purple and white, and I didn't pay much attention to the man because the woman started talking to me and he started talking to my BFF. The woman is insisting we can't fix the car and should let them drive us home, but I'm not comfortable with this and think I can fix our car. Then I call the police to see if they can help me ? But before they get there, the lady FLIPS out about me needing to get in the car with her, and with amazing strength she pushes me into her car and starts to drive off with me! I'm flipping out because my phone hit the group and I can't call anyone to save me and she won't stop. So I start trying to hit the car window to bust out, and she starts hitting me telling me to calm down and stop resisting, there's nothing I can do to get away. I start hitting her back, and punching and kicking her, and she's pushing me away with her arms, and my arms are too short to reach her to hit her anymore, so I lean back and start trying to kick her. My flip flop falls off when she grabs at my foot, and she licks my toes freaking me out and I pull back and kick her REALLY hard, but she acts like it doesn't hurt at all. Then stops the car and says we're here. She hefts me up over her shoulder and carries me inside an apartment like I'm nothing, despite the fact that I'm kicking and screaming and punching her spine with all my might. The she drops me not gently at all on the floor and I happen to get a handful of her hair as I'm falling towards the floor and her hair comes off! I realize it's a wig, and she's a MAN in drag, not a woman at all. I wonder how I couldn't have figured it out before, but then he was a really pretty woman, so it's not surprising. But what he does next isn't pretty. He starts puking because I hit him so hard, and it gets all over me YUCK! His lipstick is all smeared now and he says he needs to go clean his face off, and he walks into a bathroom. I take the chance to run to a phone and call 911. I try to tell them he's kidnapped me and when I tell the operator that he threw up on me she laughs at me. Then there's a knock on the door, and it's the 911 operator, and she's telling me she's here to open the door and it's safe to leave now. But then When I walk through the door she hands me a bill for being rescued. I flip out on her how it's supposed to be a public service to be rescued from criminals and kidnappers, and she isn't supposed to charge me $149.99 for it! Then I start lamenting my bills, and wondering how I'm going to come up with the money to pay this and get the car fixed... then I remember my BFF and ask if they police arrived in time to save her from the guy who was with the girl/guy, and the lady says yeah the police arrived and my friend was safe with her bill too! Then I woke up, thankfully.

Dream Four: I'm at the grocery store with my mom and my kids. we're checking out, and she introduces me to the guy who's bagging our things. He offers to help us take everything out to the car. When we get tot he car, I realize that my car is there but so is my husbands, and I "remember" that mom's watching the kids, and we were at the grocery store buying food for them to eat at her house while she baby sits. I strap them in while she and the guy puts the bags in the car, then I walk over to my husbands car and start to get in. The bag boy comes over and starts asking about the car, and I tell him how it used to be min in highschool, and he asks if I'll take him for a spin (it's a silver '96 Camaro, that's a normal reaction from my friends, they want to ride in it because it's a sports car, lol) So I take him around the block, but before we get all the wy around, he asks me to stop because he sees a friend. He goes to talk to his friend, and I realize I'm no longer in my car, but standing inside an anime convention hall. I see a PONY, Princess Luna to be exact, walking down the hall, then realize it's someone in a really good costume. a couple of my own friends walk by, and I say hey, and they stop and I tell them how beautiful they look... they're cos-playing as flappers, but their dresses are really shiny as well and stringy. Then I decide I need to go, and the bag boy is no where in site, so I just leave him I'm back in my car somehow pulling out onto a road, when someone takes the turn into the driveway too sharp and hits the car behind me. I'm glad not to be in an accident myself, and just keep going instead of stopping to help :O then I find myself walking again, this time I'm trying to walk through a parade and I'm carrying my daughter. I soon realize this is a parade celebrating the day of the dead, and then my daughter drops her stuffed bunny. Where it lands there are a LOT of stuffed bunnies, and the little girls sitting there help me figure out which one belongs to my daughter. I wake up.

These dreams felt way closer to my "normal", so I was much happier with last night than the last several nights. And, I had to make myself get up because I knew if I had anymore I'd waste an eternity at the keyboard, ha ha.

I really should I have wrote this when I woke up not just before bed, lol. So I had dreams, very fuzzy fragmented ones at that, and now I'm about to go to bed and remembered I forgot to write them. Oops. I don't even remember what these notes mean

Dream One (notes): Woods, Swim, Boats interview

Dream Two: I dreamed that I went to put some sort of leave in conditioner in my hair, but instead accidentally put honey in my hair instead. I was trying to rub it out, and it just wasn't working since I put so much in. My hair was a huge sticky blob. It was awful! I remember it so clearly though, and thinking it was so real and that I was SUCH and idiot, ha ha.

Dream Three (notes) Replacing plates, Kids meals

Dream Four: This wasn't a fragment before, but all I can remember now is that I was looking for a birthday friend or my BFF's sister. I was at the mall looking at a book store, and noticed they had Harry Potter books on sale. I almost bought them for her, then wondered if she likes Harry potter as much as my BFF, and if she does if she doesn't already own the books. Then I realize the books look JUST like my books, missing the little paper sleeve and everything. I remind myself my books are on the shelf at home though, and leave. As I walk out, some random guy in a white apron and chef hat asks me if I'd like to order a chicken sandwich O.o

Had to get up early anyways today to go to church, but I'm none too thrilled that my daughter had nightmares and woke me up and hour and a half earlier than I needed to wake up. With my difficulty sleeping, I managed to toss and turn half an hour away and decided to just go ahead and get up since I wasn't getting anywhere with sleep.

Dream One(Fragment): I was playing Hakuouki and trying to figure out how to get the "Dream Ending" for Saito... Such a thing doesn't exist, I think I was too focused on hoping to have a lucid dream and since playing the game was the last thing I did before bed... well it couldn't help but happen, lol.

Dream Two(Fragment): Harada from Hakuouki was walking quickly but gracefully through a modern door, his hand on his sword as thought he were expecting a fight.

Dream Three: I'm at the mall with my husband, we go upstairs, and then decide we want to leave. We can't get back downstairs to the parking lot though because there are no elevators or escalators, only one very full set of stairs. People are lining up outside of JC Penny and the line goes down the stairs and continues for a way in the mall. I wonder what everyone is waiting for, and I see a vision of multicolored Bandannas folded and stacked into two one foot high stacks. I decide to ask my husband what he wants for fathers day since we can't leave. He picks out a giant metal cooking spoon, only it's got a cheese grater built into the spoon so it wouldn't actually hold any liquids or anything, and he tells me that's what he wants. I laugh and tell him to stop goofing off, there's no way I'm buying a twenty dollar spoon with a cheese grader built in as I have a hard time believing he'd seriously want something so silly. He swears, completely serious, that's what he wants, and I laugh more because I can't understand the purpose of such an invention, or why he'd want it when we rarely cook and NEVER grate cheese :/

I know that doesn't seem like much compared to my usual, but for only 4 hours of sleep, it's pretty good, lol. I usually have only fragments until 5 am or so when I go to sleep at 1, so I'm happy to have had a full dream to report as well
