lucid

Usual WBTB. At some point I was in a nonlucid, where me and my mom and a couple other family members I think, were driving around a mountain and got stranded. We were hungry and thirsty, and there were no buildings for miles, and no other cars or people. We were standing on the side of the road on the edge of the top of the mountain in despair, when I thought I saw a tiny smoke ring appear from over the side of the mountain. I watched transfixed as the ring dissipated, then I saw another, and another! So I walked to the very edge and looked down, and I saw a reststop with some cars, and a guy was smoking a cigarette and making smoke rings. Yay we're saved! I told everyone to stay put and I climbed down to where they were to find food and water.

After I made it to the parking lot, I saw a tourist center, so I went in and looked from room to room for a vending machine, or water fountain, or something. I looked briefly in this one room, and it looked like a little kid's classroom. For some reason this made me lucid, because it seemed so out of place. I laughed, and was like YEAH! Then something really strange happened (well, strange for me): The little classroom that had once been perfectly clear and realistic, suddenly became all wibbly and unstable. Like I had gone from straight sober to stinking drunk in that one second that I had realized it was just a dream. This was a revelation for me, because I had always assumed that I had visually unstable lucid dreams alot, because my nonlucids must also be unstable. Since I am not fully aware of nonlucids until I'm recording them the next morning, I was never really sure if maybe I just wasn't remembering the instability. Whereas in a lucid, I'm aware of the dream in the moment, and notice the instability. This proved that it was just something stupid in my brain, some mental block or schema, that was causing the dream to become unstable the moment I attained lucidity.

Anyway, I remember being really wowed by this, but I was having trouble making things look better. So I just left the room and then left the visitor center to have adventures. Immediately across the street, I saw some kids playing under the canopy of a car wash. I said "Hey kids, watch this!" And I flew up into the air, and landed right by them. They were like "Woooooooooow." So I was about to take flight again, when one of the boys grabbed my leg right as I took to flight. He said "Take me flying too!" He was a heavy little twerp, so it was hard to gain altitude at first, so I had to put some effort into it. I made it just above some electrical wires, then landed again.

Then I guess I decided to get stupid and went back into the visitor center to make a sack lunch for my mom. I found a break room with a fridge, deliberated for minutes upon minutes as to what I was going to put in there. I got too wrapped up in that, and woke up. The TOTM never once entered my mind.

I preach this all the time kids: Have a Prepared To-Do List for your lucids. Otherwise, you may end up flying around like an idiot and making lunch for your mom.

In this case, "fail" definitely equaled "fun"! I went to bed at like 1:45am, thinking I had stayed up too late and ruined my chance at a lucid. But I did my usual WBTB at 6:45am and went back to sleep at about 7:30am. I felt oddly less tired than I thought I should have, so maybe that's why.

Anyway, I woke and fell back to sleep a couple more times, and around 9am or so, I woke up and felt the vibrations. It's been a while since I had a nice seamless WILD transition, so I was happy that I went straight into a lucid on the first cycle of vibrations I opened my eyes into the usual overly dark bedroom scene, and my eyes blinked on and off. I eventually could see fine, and so I got up out of bed, but I was entangled in blankets again. I just stayed calm, and kept getting up and moving toward the bedroom door. I left the room, and thought about the celebrity chef task. I went into the living room and saw a man that could easily have been Tyler Florence. I said "Tyler?" But he ignored me. "Hello, Tyler? Tyler Florence??!!" But he just kept looking in pantries and drawers, like he was focused on getting used to my kitchen. I should have been patient, because he might have still cooked something. But I wanted more attention So I said screw it and got on the floor to try the purgatory task again. I stuck my face on the floor, but it was hard and cold. I tried another area of the floor, and it went through just fine. Like the last time, a column of floor and earth broke away, revealing a fiery depth. I yelled something into the tunnel, forgot what it was. I was having more fun than focusing on actually accomplishing the task. I yelled something twice, and both times a hell hound appeared at the bottom and jumped up through the tunnel, trying to get me. But as soon as they reached the summit, they vaporized. I considered going into the tunnel.. maybe there would be levels and I could find purgatory. I stuck my head in really far, and I felt this sensation, like a force gently pulling me. I think I could have really shot through that tunnel had I let myself, but I pussed out again and woke up lol.

I went back to sleep and ended up in a non lucid where I was in my parent's livingroom. I don't remember what I was doing, but it wasn't long before I remembered that I was JUST in my bed moments before, so I'm dreaming! I don't know why, but I didn't feel like a TOTM. So I just walked out the front door. It was early morning outside, like 8am, with a cool sparkly autumn sun and long shadows. Everything was still green, and the lawn glittered with dew and looked like emeralds. My favorite time to go for a walk. Things were pretty vivid, so I just felt like going with it. I walked in the wet grass, barefoot, and I remember now that all I had on was a t-shirt and underwear. I didn't care, it was cool out, but not too cold. Plus I knew it was a dream anyway I felt like flying a bit, so I flew around the trees in low figure 8s. Then I walked some more, then flew some more. I flew up into a tall tree and landed in the nook between 2 branches. A neighbor's dog, Leah, a white great dane, came up to the tree, jumping and barking as if she didn't recognize me. Dumb dream dogs are dumb. I looked around at the beautiful 2 acres that my parent's house is on, lamenting the fact that I'll really miss this place. Because they're selling it in real life. After what felt like many many minutes of walking and flying, I woke up.

After swimming through the 4th mezzanine in a succession of many-tiered gazebos in Ruidoso, NM, believing I had done so once in the past, Barbara told me she could feel our dream beginning to end. I told her that I felt like I had a few more minutes. So I asked a tender of some sorts to hand me a pen and paper so I could begin to sketch our underwater gazebo. I got the top tier, a couch and some dogs before I woke up.

I was somewhat lucid in there, I think?

I just had an interesting time! I managed (with massive effort) one advanced task and 2 failed attemptes at the other advanced one. Usual went to bed around midnight and a 6:45am-7something WBTB. No vibrations, and went into a nonlucid, although I did incubate a dream.

I did what I've been doing alot which is I'll be standing soemwhere, and it suddenly dawns on me that only moments earlier I was laying my head down to sleep. So this time I was standing in the middle of my livingroom floor when it hit me. Yeah! I started to go out the front door to do something, then I remembered the tasks (finally!). I wanted to try rebmevon, so I went into the kitchen and found a pencil and paper. I wish I could count how many times I tried to do this, may have been around 10 tries. But I'd try to write it, but the lead wouldn't stick to the paper, so I just made a "rebmevon" indentation. (Btw I hope it isn't cheating that I forced myself in waking life to remember rebmevon, all the letters in order.) Anyway, with tons of concentration and lots of sribbly failures, I finally managed to brute force rebmevon on paper.

Since I was still lucid, I decided to go for the advanced task of bringing back a soul from purgatory. I though to go through a wall first, that maybe the scen chaange would take me to purgatory. I got my head through the livingroom wall, but it spat me back out before I could see anything. So then I thought I'd try the floor, since purgatory is on the way to hell anyway, right? I went to the bedroom and picked a spot on the floor by the bed. I stuck my head through the floor, then BOOM a giant cylindar of floor and earth broke away, revealing a tunnel that went all the way to an orange firey depth. Major "woah!" moment. But, I geuss I went too far? I dunno, I still tried. Too creeped out to actually go in that tunnel, I just stuck my head in and said "Hello?" it echoed. Then I heard a deep demonic voice say "Kevvvvvviinnnnnnnnnnnnnn." I said "Who is Kevvvvinnnnnnn?" Then the devil himself, with the hugest horns I ever saw (like Tim Curry in Legend) appeared at the bottom of the hole. Before I could escape, he did a mega jump and was up in my FACE and then I woke up lol.

I went right back into the dream lucid, in my livingroom floor again. I saw a random DC who said he was going to go do something, and i said ok, I gotta go to the bedroom and find hell again, you ok with that? He said yes. So I went to the bedroom and went to the same spot. Did the same thing and got a big hole to hell again. This time it was bigger, and I could see levels on the way to hell. I thought I could jump to one of the levels and not actually fall into the hell fire. But I didn't want you know who to appear again. So this time I said into the hole "Ok, I'm sorry if I did this wrong that last time, I just wanted to know if I could bring back a soul from purgatory for a little while, then I'll return him like after 5 minutes?" I could hear sounds, like people moving and murmering, but I couldn't see anyone, and no one answered me. I feel like they couldn't even hear me. I repeated myself, and even made a suggestion: "Could I borrow Mozart for 5 minutes??!!" Still no answer. I ended up going nonlucid and remember even going into the whole I think, and I ended up in an old folk's home (purgatory?). Someone was about to fetch Mozart for me, but it was a babydoll. I remarked "He's awful young looking, don'tcha think?" Then I woke up.

Satan, like this but not red and definitely not smiling:

Barking dogs kept messed with my sleep all night. After my usual 6:45am WBTB, I think I crashed at about 8am. I woke up at some point and didn't move. I felt the teeny tiny beginnings of some vibrations, but they were very weak and wouldn't come on completely.

I crashed again into a dream where I was at work. I noticed all the cases were blown. ASTL Nicole asked if I could refill the jelly bean table and I said "Uhmmm... did you notice the cake case? Can't you get a new person to do it, because I'm the only decorator here here and we need cakes!" Then I saw Katie and she looked at me and said "Good morning, was wondering if you were coming to work today." I said "Why?" She said because I was an hour late. I looked at the clock and it said 9:30, but I was sure it was only 8:30am. I said "Wait a minute, what about daylight's savings?" Then Katie said that this year it only lasted 24 hours, so the time went back forward an hour lol. I said that I didn't even know, and my iphone didn't update this so how could I have known? I turned on my phone to prove my innocence, and I just barely caught a glimpse of the time, 7 something, before I noticed that the battery was on red ant it cut out. I panicked because I realized that I left my charger at home and I had to work a 10-hour shift! Tiffany has an iphone so I asked if she brought her charger but she didn't. I asked Ms Ernestine, but she has an Android. Ms Ernestine said there's an AT&T store across the street. So I took my break early to go buy an extra charger.

When I got into the store, I asked the man for a charger. He took me to the back of the store, and pulled out a really large, clunky looking charger. I thought he was going to sell it to me, but he just plugged it into my phone,, and in 1 second it beeped. He said "Ok, all done, that should get you through the day." Apparently it was a company charger, and it worked really really fast, and they did it for free as a courtesy to AT&T customers. Gotta love that! As I was leaving the store I thought about it more, and it seemed really far-fetched. I got that feeling like, yeah.. I'm dreaming! Which is great of course, but again the idea of the TOTM didn't even dawn on me. But I thought about going through a mirror. I was still in the store, and I went down a hall that appeared to lead to the bathrooms. In the hall was a large mirror with a pretty gold frame. It also had it's own mantle, with lots of little ocean-themed bobbles on it. I thought about going through the mirror and visiting the ocean. I picked up one of the bobbles that looked like a tiny ceramic starfish and I recited "Sally sells seashells by the seashore." Then I picked up a tiny shell that looked like a miniature conch. I held it to my ear to hear the ocean, and it grew to normal size. Then I thought I better quit messing with stuff or I might wake up. So I went through the mirror, expecting the ocean. But I came out the other side into a young girl's bedroom. Blaaaah I was about to leave the room, but I felt part of the mirror still stuck to me, so I yanked myself free and left the room. I saw the girl, all dressed up, and she had a rolling suitcase. She was headed for the staircase, and appeared to be about to travel somewhere. I asked if her parents were home (hoping she had a cute dad lol), she said no. I asked if there were ANY adults, but she said that their grandma used to watch them, but she died. So I hopped quickly down the stairs in front of her, noticing how realistic the carpet looked and felt under my feet. I heard voices in the familyroom and kitchen, and I was hoping there might at least be a cute, much older brother at least But they were all children! So weird. I noticed a giant bowl that was being used for a litter box. I turned at looked at the stairs, and the girl was about half-way down. I said "You have cats?" She said, "Yeah, just one. But he's meaaaaaan." I noticed he was by her on the stairs, a little black and white one. He was weaving in between her legs in a figure 8, like cats do, and softly growling. I walked up to them and picked up the cat. He growled and grumbled a little bit at first, then relaxed and melted in my arms. Then I woke up.

I know, not very exciting. Glad I can still go through mirrors though, after that one time where I couldn't

Had a really really hard time getting back to sleep after my 6:45am WBTB. I believe it was after 10. But I believe the time change has soemthing to do with it.

So, I finally got to sleep, and woke up, rolled over on my back with the pillow on my head. Instead of the vibrations, I got another one of those growly demon lie on top of me. The weight felt really heavy, more than usual. I couldn't see him, just the pillow. But I could feel that he was holding my hands down. Again, as I tried to move my hands or get free, he growled even louder. So I tried 2 bits of advice from 2 different members: I tried talking and reasoning with him, while imagining him growing weaker and weaker. I asked him "Why are you doing this?" and "What's your name?" His growling got softer and began to sound farther away, and the weight grew less and less heavy. Then there was nothing. I whipped the pillow off me, but he was gone. Feeling triumphant, I got up out of bed, ready to have an adventure. As I was standing in my room, trying to think of something, I woke up.

After more tossing and turning, I ended up on my back again, with the pillow again. I started getting vibrations this time, but because I was on my back, I felt the vibrations more in the back of my head and body, so I was having trouble focusing them on my eyes and face like I normally do. Interesting that it makes a difference. I finally drifted off, then awoke into a lucid when I felt another body get on top of me. This time he wasn't mean at all. I felt the pillow move off my face, but my dream eyes were still closed. Something started making out with me and grasping wildly at my pajama pants. Then I felt something like the motions of sex, but not actual sex, if that makes sense. So frustrated, I rolled over and got on top of this "guy." This time I looked at him, and he looked like a wild crazed version of Danny. i even told him he looked like Danny haha. I put my hand on his face and thought he might bite it, but he just licked and sucked it like some kind of animal. I was able to get something sexual going this time, but there was something strange down there. I felt a hard protrusion coming from me I think. Not a boy part, it didn't even feel like flesh. Almost like half of my female anatomy became petrified. Really odd sensation. After a few moments of this, he just vanished. So I got up and found a lady. I remember she was a pretty redhead. I turned her over on the bed and did what I usually do. I actually got alot further this time than I had in a while before waking up.

I keep doing this thing where it's not really a WILD but not really a DILD, rather some kind of hybrid. I'll WBTB and then drift off while thinking about something, in the case of yesterday morning, I was thinking about work. Then I'm suddenly dreaming that I'm at work, but I'm not lucid. But in just a few seconds I think, "Oh dang, I was JUST lying in bed thinking about work not 3 seconds ago." So technically it IS a DILD, but damn it's super quick. So I ain't complaining, I'm just used to labeling induction techniques for years, but it doesn't matter. It's just one of my personal ways of getting there. OphILD - Ophelia Induced Lucid Dream haha.

Anyway, so yeah I became lucid when I realized that I was just thinking about work and found myself in the frozen aisle again. I tried to summon Scott, which worked, but I could only ever see the back of his head. No matter how hard I tried to get around him, or get in front of him, or turn him around, I was always looking at the back of his head. Weird and annoying.

This dream was yesterday morning, so I remember very little, plus it wasn't a lucid with any exceptional control or length, and not really noteworthy enough for me to remember the details after a long late shift last night. But I remember these 2 lucid fragments in addition to the one about Scott:

- I tried to fly but I shot up way too high too fast and got vertigo again. I was able to stop, and just kinda bobbed up and down high up in the atmosphere once I reached a thin veil of clouds.

-While still high up, I wanted to land but I was waiting for the ground to stop morphing through different wild scenes, and become something I wanted to go to. I think I woke up just before it looked like something from Willy Wonka.

- Growing boy parts and playing with them for a bit, noticing that I must be right handed.

All in all a fun morning though! There were alot of mini lucids, and it's been hours so I'll try to recall best I can.

Woke up at 5:30am then went back to sleep almost right away. Woke up at 6:45am, then fell back to sleep around 8am I think. The first lucid was when I woke up (I think?), and was just lying on my back with my eyes open. Then I felt vibrations. I thought that it was weird that I felt them while my eyes were opened, so I decided I was already dreaming so I got up. When I did, a corner of the blankets were stuck to my face and I had to pry it off lol. I thought about the pumpkin head task again, but I was ambivalent. The last time didn't go so well and I didn't even really want to do it. But it was either that one or the frankenstein one and I didn't feel like doing that one either lol. So I made up my mind and just marched into the bathroom. I looked at my reflection, then got up real close and looked at my eyeballs, the pupils morphed all weird. I stuck just my head through the mirror then pulled it back out. This time was the most effortless mirror push. Instead of liquid, it felt like cool air. Somehow the mirror moved the features of my face down to the bottom 1/3 of my face, if that makes sense. So I stuck it back in the mirror, then out again, and it was back to normal. Which gave me an idea. I wondered if I stuck my head in the mirror, and pulled with my hands at the same time, my head might stay in the mirror and become detached. So I tried it, and what resulted was really bizzare: I pulled back out of the mirror, and my head was still attached, but it had completely deflated and was just hanging down off my neck like a popped balloon. I couldn't see this fact, because I was blind the second I came out of the mirror. I felt it with my hands. That was far enough for one dream, so I stuck my upper body back into the mirror, then pulled back out. Still blind, but I could feel my head back in place. And it wasn't true blindness, because I could see the bathroom light behind closed eyelids. I even pointed my face up toward the light, and it became brighter. So I pryed my lids open with my fingers and I could see again. Fucking weird. Then I woke up.

I was still on my back, so I just closed my eyes and I went immediately into a dream. My mattress slid off the bed with me still on it. Then what could be best described as a magic carpet ride started. The mattress went right through the wall, and it traveled down the road, went up windy mountain roads, and eventually took off into the sky. As I was soaring through the clouds, I felt like I might fall off, so I grabbed onto the edge as hard as I could. I knew I was dreaming this whole time, I just didn't feel like falling. I'm turning into such a chicken in my LDs. It's way past time to mentally detach from my physical body in these dreams. Anyway, I think I woke up shortly after feeling like I might fall.

I fell back to sleep and went straight into a dream where I was at work. I was immediately lucid, because I remembered that I had just woken from a dream like 4 seconds ago and had closed my eyes to go back to sleep. This DEILD stuff is cool and weird. I decided I wanted to try to find Scott from the last LD, because I didn't get to do much with him. I found him in the frozen aisle, where I usually see him irl if not at the bakery. I said "Hey Scott, wanna make out?" He was wearing a motorcycle helmut. He walked up to me and lifted the visor, ready to kiss. I said "You gotta take that thing off man." He said he didn't want to because it made him look cool, but then he took it off anyway. He pressed me up against one of the freezer doors and we made out for a while. Then I woke up.

I went right back to sleep, and immediately found myself in my parents' livingroom, again recognizing that I was dreaming because I was JUST lying in my bed trying to go back to sleep. No furniture though. I remember I was kinda horny from making out with Scott in that last dream, and I couldn't think of anything else to do. It was really bright outside, otherwise I might have been inspired to find a graveyard and attempt the other advanced TOTM. I thought "naaaah" and waited for someone to show up. 2 cable guys came to the door, and I asked them to strip down and get on the floor. They said no. Then a 3rd guy showed up, looked like a phone repairman. He obliged me. I turned male and the rest of that story will stay in my brain. I don't remember waking up from that one, so I either went nonlucid or just blacked out I dunno.

I failed not from lack of lucid abitities, but because I was pure chicken haha!

Ok, so I did a WBTB at 6:30am and had a really rough time falling back to sleep. I finally did, then woke up around 9:30am. I fell back to sleep thinking about the annoying shift I was about to have to do (meeting plus 1 1/2 hour close shift). Anyway, I was imagining myself going through closing drills, then my thoughts phased into a dream of me actually running through the halls at work. I stopped and thought to myself, "Hey, I was JUST thinking about this while lying in bed, I'm dreaming!" That's happened to me once before that I can recall, and it happened in a work dream too. Anyway, I immediately thought of the TOTM. Since I've kinda been working down the list from easiest to hardest (for me), I thought I'd try the pumpkin head one. In the dream, I was in the back hallway but not near the bathroom. So I just imagined that the next door to my left would be the team member bathroom, and sure enough the little restroom sign appeared next to the door. Oh, I wanted a bathroom so I could use a mirror for reference when popping off my head. I went into the bathroom, and closed the door. I even locked the door because I didn't want a random DC to come in and fuck up my task. So I looked in the mirror and thought of CanisLucidus and the lego-head thing. I tried to lift my head from my neck, but it didn't pop off. Instead it stretched a bit. Like silly putty (was it paigey who did something similar? Somebody had a silly putty neck). Anyway, it stretched a few inches, and then I was just like "Oh FUCK no" and quit! It was just too real feeling. I mean, I knew I was dreaming still, but it felt too real and morbid. I felt as scared as I did when I had the first pleiosaur lucid. I had the same "omg RUN AWAAAAAAAAAAaaay" feeling. Damnit.

But I didn't want to waste the lucid, so I thought I might try to finish where I left off in the last one, and regrow my vamp teeth and bite someone. I looked up close into the mirror, and looked at my incisors, willing them to grow long and sharp. They grew longer, but stayed blunt. And with the bumpy edges like when you lose your baby teeth and the new ones come in with those little bumps. So stupid. So, on to plan C: get some nookie.

I left the bathroom, went down the hall, and head some voices in a room. I walked in on a guy talking to a woman who I assumed was his daughter for some reason. As soon as I entered, he shut up. Like he knew what I was gonna do lol. The woman had fallen asleep in a chair. I picked her up and moved her to a nearby sofa. I then spent waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long deliberating over how the pillows were situated under her head, and other random things that I forgot. I didn't even have time to switch gender and get us naked before I woke up.

Scott. He just... ughh.

Ok, so it's a regular customer at work. He's really cute but has virtually no personality. I guess I'm attrected to him anyway because I went way out of my way to help him with a special order once. And he even managed to smile! I geuss this "triumph" worked its way into my subC because here's how it went down this morning:

It started nonlucid, where Scott was bringing challah from another store into whole foods, asking me if I would slice it there. In real life HELL NO because we'd get fined big time. But in the dream, I guess I was still being a kiss ass, so I said suuuuuuuuuuure. Then I woke up, started to fall asleep again, and pretty soon I had HH where I could see Scott come into the room, and then he got into bed with me. It was now a hotel bedroom. I was lucid for all this, but it was about to go nonlucid real quick. Anyway he said something, I forgot, then got behind me and spooned. I began to have some lucid plans for him, but I was getting too comfortable in that position. I think I just drifted off in the dream, then woke up into a nonlucid with Scott. He decided to date me because I sang opera, something like that. And he accompanied me to the hotel where I was staying before a big performance. The hotel room was fully equipped with a kitchen, and we were baking a chicked for dinner before heading to the opera house. We kept on getting delayed, and he was whining about my attire. He said we could go to the lobby and he would buy something nicer for me. I just rolled my eyes. We were too late to deal with the chicken, so we just left the roon and headed down the hall for the hotel elevator. He was right behind me, and put his hands on my shoulders gently as we were walking and said "You don't think I'll actually buy you anything, do you?" I said, "Oh I'm sure you will.. I don't care either way to be honest. You just want to have your image a certain way, and you want me to coordinate with you. I'll get my way another time." (DAMN I wish I had been lucid then, because I would have taken him north south east AND west in the elevator). We stepped into the elevator and continued the discussion. I could see our reflections in the mirror. Curse you mirror! When we got into the hotel lobby, it looked like a midwestern museum. Everything was made of animal pelts and shiny wood. We got to a counter and he saw belts. I know he did because he said "Oooo, belts." I was looking at something else, jewelry with opals in it I think, then woke up. Oh and I remember at some point, I had a one-month-old Chris that I was breast-feeding.

Lol, so... bad bad night's sleep. It got so hot and humid and I woke up at 4:30 sweating my tuchis off. I didn't finally get back to sleep until everyone was gone and then some, maybe 8am. The dogs barked a couple times because it was windy, so it kept waking me up. One time, they barked and I thought "Oh shit, someone's trying to break in." I thought that because we really did get 3 bikes stolen recently. I was really really drowsy when they barked that last time, and I started to drift off.

Then they barked again, and I thought it sounded like they wre barking at the front door, like they do when Danny comes home. He left for work at 6am, so I thought maybe they sent him home for some reason. I heard the bedroom door open, and Danny said something. I tried to speak to him, I think I tried to ask him "Oh did they send you home?" But my voice was paralyzed. I managed to wake up, look up, and saw no one. Then I fell right back to sleep, and I could hear Danny say something again. He even lifted the covers on his side of the bed, and I thought he got in. Then I woke up again and he wasn't there. I gotta be HELLA-tired to get FA's like that haha!

Later on I woke up, still super tired, and I rolled over on my tummy which is more comfortable for falling back to sleep. I felt some vibrations, but instead of the nice, calm vibrations I had recently gotten used to, I felt the demon again. So I knew a lucid dream had started, or physical HH, take your pick. He climbed on my back, clasped my hands in his, and held me down, just like in the good ol' days. It was the grouchy one again, because when I tried to move, he growled like a dog. I tried to free my hands, mroe pressure and more growling. Mind you all, I know this isn't real, so I'm nto scared, just annoyed. At this point I could usually wriggle free and start an LD, maybe after sexing or slapping the guy, or both. But he was really strong. So I stretched my arms out, and did like an airplane move, more growling. I tried to reason with him, like oreo told me that last time (which worked the last time!), but my voice was paralyzed again. I even lifted my right hand to my mouth, and nibbled on his fingers haha. I admit I was having fun, but I wanted to LD! I was finally able to do the roll-out-of-bed technique, and it worked. Kinda. I rolled off the bed, and was falling a while without ever hitting a floor, Dumbass growling the whole way, and I either went nonlucid or just back into hard sleep, can't remember.

We love you when you're maaaaaaaaaad!

I think I'm just going to continue revovling involuntarily between every goddamned induction technique they ever came up with. This morning was probably my first DEILD in it's truest sense. I mean, I've woken up and had 2 or 3 WILDs back to back before, but there was always minutes in between, and I didn' enter the dream where it left off. And the dreams were longer. This time I had maybe 5 or 6 (lost count!), and each time I would wake up after a quick 2-3min LD, be awake for a few seconds, then slip right back into the same story, fully lucid. No vibrations, and I didn't always start the LD in my stupid bed for a change! Like the last post, I'm a bit fuzzy on what happened in which dream, except for the first one and the last 2.

I woke up at 6:45am, and got Chris to school, then back to bed at about 7:20. But I tossed and turned for aaaages. I was sick yesterday so I still had cold medicine in me, and my sleep pattern was all jacked up. Not sure when I finally fell asleep.

In the first lucid, I dreamed that I woke up, but I wasn't sure if it was an LD because I didn't have my usual vibrations. I noticed it was super dark out, even though I remember it being light when I went back to bed. I was pretty sure I was lucid, and when I slowly got out of bed with blankets stuck to my back, I knew for sure. I went out the bedroom door and it was super dark. I flipped switches like crazy, to no avail. Then I remembered the flashlight me and CanisLucidus had talked about previously. So I felt my way to the livingroom and felt on an end table, willing a flashlight to appear. I felt something cold and cylindrical and picked it up. There was a little slidy button (like the flashlights we had in the 80's haha), so I pushed it up and it turned on with an ok-ish light. I shined it all over the livingroom, asking out loud "Any vampires in here? I actually wanna get bit. Free meal. Anyone?" Nothing. So I went out the front door and shined the light up and down the block. I saw a short old mexican man across the street. I ran across the street and asked him, with the light on him, if he was a vampire. He said no. So I reached up to touch his teeth in case he was lying, and he backed up saying "Hey leave me alone!" Then I woke up.

I fell right back to sleep and immediately was standing in the hallway, lucid! This time I was blind in my left eye again. I actually put my fingers on my left eye, to feel if maybe the lid was glued shut. It was. I tryed to pry it open, but each time it snapped back shut. I thought to myself, "Hrmm, all this time I wasn't lucid blind, just lucid winking lol." Then I woke up.

Fell asleep, woke up in bed again. Dark again, so I knew I was dreaming again. I was a little frustrated that all these dreams were so short, but thankful that I was popping back into them lucid each time. Still set on the TOTM, I decided to try to use a mirror to find a vampire. Guess which lucid prop decided to finally cock block me. I tried 2 mirrors, and one reflective picture frame, and each time, the mirror pivoted instead of letting me pass through. In retrospect, maybe the space behind could have acted as a portal, since the mirror always pivoted into a dark cube of space in the wall. Anyway, I was too focused on solving the issue, so I just went out the front door again. I still had my flashlight and was shining it all over the lawn, asking "Any vampires out here? Helloooooooo?" Something in my front yard quickly passed through the cone of light from my flashlight, and started to hurry away. The surprise made me drop my flashlight. I said "Hey, stop!" The figure stopped and came toward me, and I struggled to make out his features in the moonlight. He stepped right in front of me and I could see him better. He was a young guy, in his 20's maybe, wearing jeans, a blue hoodie, shoulder-length wavy brown hair. And damn sexy. I asked him if he was a vampire. He smiled and said "yes," and I could see a flash of white, pointy teeth. I said "you can bit me if you want." He asked "Are you sure?" I said "Do it, it's for an experiment." So he said "Okaaaay...." and tipped my head to the left. (Interesting note I just realized: the vampire chic in the last dream went for the opposide side of my neck than the dude.) He bit down on my neck in the traditional spot, and again, it didn't feel like a puncture, more like a super hot hickey. Wow. You guys seriously gotta try this! Then he just slowly urged me down on the grass, and without breaking the bite, started removing our clothes. HELL yeaaaah. I really wanted it. But then I remembered I wanted to see the transition even more than vampire sex ( maybe next time). So I pushed him off and said "Sorry" and ran into the house. I went into the hall bathroom which was already lit up, praise goodness. I looked at my reflection and saw the bite marks, same as last time. I reached up and could feel them too, a little gross but no blood. I felt awakeness start to pull me (ffffuuuuu!), and I woke up, with the image of my reflection staring back at me, burned into my mind.

I immediately went back to sleep (I can only thank my new found ability to ignore feelings of disappointment or dispair in LDs, as they deter from goals. If only I could apply this irl.) Anyway, sure enough, I went right back into the dream staring at my reflection.. same pose and everything, and completely lucid (that's a lucid first for me!) I was determined not to let this one go without experiencing the transition, since I remembered everything from the previous dreams at that point. I opened my mouth and stared at my teeth. After a few moments, my incisors lengthened and sharpened, but they looked like they had rotated 90 degrees. That's odd. I kept watching and those same incisors grew a little longer, and additional sharp growths sprouted from them. I watched as the other teeth did the same thing. I looked at my irises, hoping for some bad ass color change, but they stayed normal. Lol the ONE TIME. I stepped back a bit and opened my mouth a little wider, to see all my teeth. Every one of them was sharp, with tiny barbs protruding from each one. That would make a hell of a bite I'd say! The last thing I saw from that dream before waking up, was staring at my creepy new teeth, with a big wide grin.

I fell back to sleep for what would be the last lucid of the morning. I appeared in the same bathroom, fully lucid. I remembered all the vampire stuff, and even wondered if it would count since it was split up. I looked at my teeth to make sure they were still monstrous, and they were. So I thought I'd add a bonus to this task and go find some hot guy to bite. I left the bathroom, and now the hall looked like the hall of a university building. There were open doors, and rooms full of college students. I walked by one open door and a cute guy was standing right at the opening, so I grabbed his arm and pulled him down the hall. I found an open storage closet with a chair covered in a sheet, and I threw him down on the chair. We started making out, and I shouldn't have started with that, because it just made me horny. I started taking his pants off, then mine. I convinced myself that I could have both: the sex and the bite. I was greedy, because I woke up before I could have either. DAMNIT. But also yay!

I FINALLY went to bed at midnight instead of staying up past 2 or 3am. I just really LD better that way. So after I saw Chris off at 7:15am, I went back to be at about 7:30. It took maybe 15-20 minutes to get nice and drowsy, but my mind still sharp. I felt vibrations and got super happy I waited for an image to form on the orange, blotchy screen that comprises the back of my eyelids. I saw a really beautiful horse gallop around, then vanish. I decide to open my eyes and check the room. It's my bedroom of course, but I notice some fancy crown moulding that doesn't exist in real life. Dream. I slowly got out of bed, and the pillow and comforter were stuck to the back of my head as always, lol. But I ignored it as always. I instantly though of the vampire TOTM, so I set off to go find one. Before I could even get to the door, I saw a figure, he was hooded and cloaked so I couldn't see his face. We walked toward eachother quite quickly, and faced eachother. In the shadow of his hood, I could see a greenish looking face, which was quite demonic. He looked at me with a look of pure evil, and it must have scared me awake. Because I woke up lol.

Now, because I'm a naughty girl, I waited a loooong time after these dreams to write them down, so I have the details confused in the next 2 LDs in the DEILD chain I had this morning. But I distinctly remember having vibrations 2 more times. The rest I remember goes like this (I'm just combining everything into one dream): After realising I'm lucid again, I got up out of bed, and left the bedroom. It was really dark, like a cloudy morning at 6am kinda dark, just faint grey-blue light. I kept shouting for light, turning on switches, baaaaah! Once I got to the living room, there was some light pouring from the seams around the front door. I was also blind in my left eye. OH and noteworthy is this (because I made a thread about it ages ago), while I was blind in my left eye, I could see the right part of my nose. You know, like if you close one eye irl, you can see a side of your nose. I was kinda excited about that in the dream, because my subC constructed my face like well. Anyway, before I got to the front door, I saw a pretty woman, who appeared to be in her 40's. She was a little shorter than I am, petite, with shoulder-length sandy-blonde hair. She had a red cashmere sweater on, and jeans. She smiled at me, and I saw that she had vampire teeth. I asked her to bite me. She came up to me and started to bite my neck, but I remembered I wanted to do this in front of a mirror so I could see any transition, as well as feel it. Her teeth were already hooked into my neck, so I just reached around her waist and picked her up, and walked to the hall where a full length mirror had appeared. At this point, I could see out of both eyes again, and there seemed to be a little mroe light. Hooray for distractions! The biting felt really good, kinda like getting a super sexy hickey. She was kinda turning me on (I know, big surprise huh). When I got to the mirror, I set her back down on her feet without disturbing the biting. I made eyecontact with my reflection, but noticed I couldn't see the vampire in the mirror! I could still feel her, and I could still see her in my peripheral vision. How old school vampire flick Anyway, she broke away and said she had to go do something, I forgot what. So I got closer to the mirror and examined the bite mark: The flesh around the 2 bite holes was snow white for about 3-inch diameter circle. The 2 tiny holes were raised and puffy, and somehow even whiter. They were so swolled that they basically shut themselves, so there was no blood. How tidy of her. I stared at myself in the mirror, waiting for something to happen, anything at all, a difference in form, feeling, sound, vision. But there was nothing. Then I woke up.

Like I said, I combined everything I remember from the last 2 LDs, but the vampire chick was in the 3rd one, I remember that much. When I woke from that one in front of the mirror, I didn't have any more LDs.

edit: I remember more about the 2nd LD now!! Because I was just rereading my entry. I so recommend everyone do that! Anyway, the 2nd times I had the vibrations, I "woke" to a dream where I was lying in bed on my stomach, and something crawled on my back. Haven't had that happen in a long time. He grabbed my hands and held me down. Everytime I tried to move or free my hands, he'd grip harder and growl. I remember finding it kinda funny. I think I tried talking to him, but that's all I remember. If I remember more I'll certainly add it.

Had a fun morning! After I got Chris off to school at 7:20am, I went back to bed. It was easily over an hour before I finally got to sleep. I wasn't asleep long i don't think before waking up briefly. I was pretty relaxed and drowsy and got the vibrations pretty quickly. I waited for what I can only assume is the allotted time before opening my eyes. When I did, of course the room looks pretty normal, so I'm always careful about getting out of bed at this point. I looked on Danny's side of the bed, and saw something strange just below his pillow. I picked it up, and it was a black and white dog collar that we do not own. So yay, good enough for me! I got up, and left the bedroom. (If I remember next time, I'm going to just phase through a wall or window, and skip all this going through the house stuff. It takes up too much time and there are often too many distracting oddities). I thought about doing the trick-o-treat TOTM again. So on my way out I saw Danny in the livingroom, and to avoid a distracting confrontation, I just said, without even making eye-contact "Gotta go outside for a bit baby" and went out the front door. But when I did, I magically came IN to the house from the back door lol. I was a little worried that I might have a problem with this. But I just marched through the house, went out the front door and this time I was in the front yard. And it was night, perfect! I went straight to the house across the street and knocked on the door. A lady opened the door, looked a bit like my neighbor, and I said "Trick-o-treat! Does a DreamViews member live here?" She didn't answer me so I just barged inside. I saw a couple other people, and I said "Are any of y'all DV members?" They all said no, but one of them pointed to a room around the corner and said "He is. He's Greg LastNameUndisclosed" I said "I know him, that's Oneironaut Zero!!" So I ran around the corner, and sitting on the edge of the fireplace hearth was a very sick looking African-American man. Didn't look like O at all really, but I said "Greg?" and he said "Yeah?" I got real close to him, he was wearing a really nice yellow button up shirt, and I asked him if he was ok because he looked sick. I can't remember his answer. Anyway, I left because I wanted to try more houses! I skipped a couple houses down, and knocked on the door and said "Trick-o-treat" when a lady answered. She started to actually give me some candy but I said I don't want it, and asked if anyone from DV lived here. She pointed to a 17-year-old African-American girl sitting on the couch. She said her DV name was 'Trice (like short for Patrice). So I told her I'm so looking that up on DV when I wake up. Then I woke up.

I got vibrations again almost right away, and when I opened my dream eyes, I did it real slowly and I could just make out an odd blue crate on top of the covers. Thanks again subC . So I got out of bed, and I noticed a door in the bedroom which leads outside, but doesn't exist in real life. So I went out the door, and it led me to a balcony. When I looked down, I saw that I was impossibly high up. When I saw the ground, it looked miles away, like it does when you look out of an airplane window. So then I looked up, and GUESS WHAT?! I was in that beautiful multicolored villa from a couple weeks ago, the one I was trying to get to!! I couldn't believe it. I looked around, there should have been a silver palace to my left, but I couldn't see it, plus there were some clouds obscuring my view in that direction. I looked to my right and there was the city, several really huge, shiny skyscrapers. I was ecstatic. I looked up again so I could admire the beautiful building I was visiting, then I woke up. To bad I wasn't there longer, I might have remembered that Wonka-style elevator and gone for a ride haha!

I'm in a rush so I gotta be quick and screw typos. I woke up around 5am and as I drifted off, there was some brief audio HH of wasps surrounding me. Some stung me, but then that feeling phased into WILD vibrations. I slowly sat up in my bed, and I saw my cat Ziggy jump off. No pets are ever in here, so that was confirmation that I was dreaming. I walked out the bedroom and the hallway opened up into my parents old house. It was bright outside and I could see great! I immediately thought of the trick-o-treat TOTM, but I wanted it to be more night time. So I went to the front door of the house, put my hand on the knob, and said to myself "As soon as I open the door, it will be night time and I'll have a halloween costume on." I opened the door and it was darker, like 7pmish. I thought, good enough. I didn't feel a mask on or anything, but I had black robes. I was probably just some random HP character, whatever, on with the task! I didn't have a candy bag either but oh well. As soon as I walked out the house, I looked at the house next door, it was dark and creepy looking. I said to myself "This is Alex's house." I started walking there and this pig came up to me and started jumping at me and bite-licking me, like a playful dog that was getting too rough. It wouldn't fuck off and finally I had to pick it up and sling it across 2 acres of land. He landed with a "squeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!" and hobbled away, as if one leg was hurt. I felt sorry for it for a bit, then I reminded myself he doesn't exist. I went to the house and lots of kids were coming and going. I knocked on the door expecting Alex, but 4 little boys dressed to the 9s as vampires answered. I said "trick-o-treat!" and they just gnarled and hissed at me. I asked if any adults were home, hoping one would be Alex or ANY DV member. They just continued to growl at me. Then one looked at the other and bitched at him for using up all the vampire make-up, then I woke up.

Later in a non lucid, my mom and I were shopping for stuff to cook a big dinner together at their old house. Next thing I remember we were in the kitchen, and while mom was at the stove, I looked in the fridge. There was a pot of stew in there, boiling. I thought maybe she had JUST taken it there from the stove, other wise how could it still be so hot. Then mom said "I think I made a mistake by keeping my wrought-iron skillet in the freezer, look at it, it's melting." And sure enough, she had taken it out of the freezer, placed it on the hot coils of the stove, and it was melting. I said yeah I guess that was bad, but it seemed weird to me. Then the iron began seeping in between the hot coils. I said "Mom I think you need to handle that, it's gonna get everywhere." And she just walked out. I looked in the fridge again and that pot of stew was totally boiling over. This was getting too weird, so I began doing the finger-through-palm thing. That's such a bad RC by the way. Didn't go through. But I refused to believe that this was right. So I tried to just hop up into the air and see if I could float or fly, and sure enough I was just hovering in the air. AhHAH! I said. So I slowly floated out the kitchen then outside. Danny's son was there, asking me to teach him to do that too. I said "Sorry, no time son." And I flew outside with him following me. I flew around the trees in the front yard, all decorated with xmas stuff and some presents stuffed in the branches. I felt heavy, it was hard staying afloat. My mom came out and asked if I could see the presents. I said yes then woke up.

Later I was in a non lucid where I was chatting with oreoboy and mel. Oreo said "I think I have a muscle." I typed "Oh just one?" But the text didn't go through. Mel typed "xyz xyzz xyzzzzzz" or something like that. I tried typing my line again, but I couldn't focus on the keys. I was making a real effort trying to even type the first letters, when I realized it was a dream. I'm suddenly in my bed, so I get up and go out the door. It's dark, and I'm worried about my vision. But I remember talking to CanisLucidus about this, and i just went down the hall flipping on lightswitches (I forgot about the mirror). The lights were coming on just fine so yay. I ended up in the livingroom of my parents house again, and I saw what looked like Chris and my step-dad playing video games. But when I saw them from the front, my step dad wasn't him, he was a fuzzy cuddly looking werewolf! I didn't remember the werewolf bite task though, shame. Probably was to cute and cuddly to do it anyway. Then I woke up.
