Long LD
I am out somewhere and realise it is time to go to work. Drive there in a car. We have to go in through security - putting memory cards into scanning machines. My card is broken.
There is a long queue for one of the scanning machines and it takes ages. The people with me go through. Finally I get to insert a small memory card into a slot. The person behind me moans that it went in sideways and has broken the machine. I pull it out and reinsert it. It is still broken.
There is another checkpoint and people move over to that. I tell the security guard that I have already scanned my card and they let me walk through no questions asked. I fiddle with the card which now has bent metal prongs on the back. F***. I bend them back and they snap. Shit. I realise I can swap it for another device in my pocket and just switch the memory chip on it.
Shortly after arriving my friends ask for a lift home. We walk out into the car park and I get into a low wide blue sports car. I start driving fast to get back in time for a nap. Then I decide to run a junction.
It occurs to me this is daft and I should just become lucid and get on with tasks already. Heh. I drive the car and tear up the street for a while. Then I remember three step tasks.
Ahead on the street is a group of horses. I decide to phase the car and myself through them. I drive up behind the horses and manage to phase right through. They are startled and start rearing up.
I see a group of people nearby and remember my second three step and start trying to cast fireball on them. I kinda scorch one guy's T-shirt a bit but that is it. Pathetic. Try again. Nope.
Okay what about lightning. The skies are dark and stormy. I reach my hands up and call the lightning. Sparks appear and shoot down to my hands. I let it go towards the DCs and they say "ow!". Okay so its not that impressive.
I decide to do some fast flying and end up in a weird never-ending building. I head for the patch of day light and keep flying fast... it finally clears and turns into a hill. I fly up it until stuck on a snowy slope.
There is a mountain tracker here. He starts talking about kicking logs up the mountain as a seat. The logs are massive tree trunks. So I try kicking giant logs up the mountain for a while. It is not easy and I cheat to stop the logs sliding back down in the snow, using telekinesis.
Then I get bored and fly to the top. However there is a house there. I want to find a snowy peak. I walk around the house and see a line of DCs moving towards some kind of stadium. There are cars and bikes on the road. I start to run past them, it seems to be taking a while so I start to use super speed to get there quicker.
I reach the stadium where groups of them are seated on enormous stone plinths. I start doing massive jumps between the plinths. Then I tell the DCs how I wanted to fly to the top of a snowy mountain. They're like, "yeah I'm sure there is one around here somewhere". After continuously turning in a circle, finally I see a snow calped peak in the clouds. I start flying fast towards it and then hear a knock on the door.
False awakening. Dad walks in. Tells me it is 11.59. Shit I should be at work. He says its times like this when you wonder what you used to do before work fired you... Uh. Okay then. So I hurry to the bathroom, naked, to pee. And then Dad is standing outside the bathroom door joking about phasers. "Set phasers to stun!" I shout.
