15.08.2010At one company's hq (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I guess my subconscious is assimilating all the changes in my business. This was a better night, not to my average but getting closer. Four dreams. Third: I was working with one of the business I am associated with on waking. I am associated with this company and I do some work for them as a Independent Contractor, they told me a few times that they did not see such a hard worker like me in ages. This company gave me some unexpected additional work. I knew that I got all that extra job, with bonussed payments because they were very happy with me. I logged on their database and I saw quite a few stuff to do. I entered their office and there were a lot of Coca-Cola bottles. One of the bottles was wider and abnormal, it said, "Coke Coffee" It was a coffee flavored Coke. I felt very good about this. My wife was not very excited because I was going to be very busy. I realized now I had a lot of work to do and I was going to be quite busy, but I was glad as it would add to my income. Missed Dream Signs: - I was in that business office (It's a 100% phone and internet business relationship, I do not need to go to their offices for nothing.) - The odd shaped bottle of Coca-Cola coffee flavored. What I would have done if lucid: - Head for a ToTY.

15.08.2010Reckless driving truck. (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I guess my subconscious is assimilating all the changes in my business. This was a better night, not to my average but getting closer. Four dreams. Second: I was driving. It was a sunny day and it was warm. The freeway was almost empty. Suddenly, a huge truck started to change the lane while I was passing him. I had to jam the breaks while I honked him. I was very mad due such a reckless driving. We were going uphill and I tried to speed up and pass the truck while honking. My wife advised me to leave the truck alone. I was suddenly running, at the same speed that the truck. I was still in the freeway. The truck was changing lanes again, so I did as well. This happened for a few lanes until the truck speedup more and left. I had a false awakening in my bed. I felt my body in my bed and at the same time, I felt I was somewhere else. I was wondering if I could fall back into the dream, turn lucid and blast that truck into oblivion. I tried to open my eyes hopping I was in the dream, but I felt my eyes in my bed so I waited a little more. Suddenly, my mom entered my room and advised my wife and me to wake up. I left bed really tired, with memories from waking and hopping I could sleep more. I woke up for real. Missed dream signs: - I was running in the highway. - The False Awakening. - Trying to turn lucid. - My mom. What I would have done if lucid: - Blast the truck driver and head for a ToTY.

15.08.2010I go to the beach with my son (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I guess my subconscious is assimilating all the changes in my business. This was a better night, not to my average but getting closer. Four dreams. First: A son was bringing a present to his dad. It was a shell he found somewhere in the beach. I was in the beach with a made up son of mine and we were crossing from one beach to another. There was a metallic fence in the middle, were were hanging into it as we did not want to go deep in the ocean. It was very sunny and windy. The water was warm. I suddenly saw this DC who was my soon diving in the water. My son was about 10 years old, slim, with sort black hair. I felt happy because I knew he was going to search for something nice for me underwater. Missed dream sings: - I do not have kids in waking. What I would have done if lucid: - Ask this kid stuff about me. He was probably my inner kid.

14.08.2010A dog gets mad (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Finally a rested night after two nights of little sleep. I sleep through the entire night. This never happens to me because I was really tired. I woke up at 8 without recall, even more odd for me, I did not want to wake up with nothing, so I was determined to recall one dream. I did. Morning sleep saved my 3 month streak. I was outdoors. It was sunny and I felt the wind in my face. I was in a big park, however, I did not see that many trees. I did not see a lot of DC either. I was alone almost in the middle of nowhere. I could see a metallic fence several feet away from me and some people beyond it. A German Shepperd approached at me, so I placed my hand in front of his face for him to sniff it (I do this on waking and every single dog, even the most scared or aggressive ones like me) A few seconds passed and the dog started to bark and attack me. I did not move as I knew it was impossible for a dog to get mad at me. However, the dog kept barking and attacked me a few times, so I started to run and the dog followed me. I left this park and I was next to the street. A rottweiler approached at me and once more I placed my hand. This rottweiler was a friend of the first dog that attacked me. The rottweiler kept sniffing my hand for a long time and he did not attack me, however, he did not ask to be petted either (like all dogs do in waking) He started to growl and he did not look happy at all. I had a False awakening at home. It was a different place from waking. My parents were with me and four made up family, plus my two waking cats. I was in a bed with three kids. They were about 12-14 years old. One of my cats was in my pillow and my second cat noticed I awoke, so she jumped to my pillow as well and started to get comfortable. My cat said, "Please, pet me a little more before Mew kicks me out like she always does." I laughed and said to my wife (now she was there too) "I knew it. Finally Skitty protested about getting kicked out when Mew wants some love!" I was about to get out from bed when the three kids I had started to say, "I grab silly people!!! I grab them! I grab silly people like Marc, I grab silly people like Ismael Serrano! I grab silly people like you!" Two kids were grabbing me and it was hard to get away from them, but I did. I went to my living room and my mom was mad. She said, "McDonald's again for breakfast! I am not cooking!!!" I was surprised because we never went to McDonald's for breakfast. She said, "We did not buy paper towels so we cannot have breakfast at home!" I saw a roll with no paper towel. I threw it to the trash, went to the bathroom and washed. I then went to the living room and I sat at the table. I wanted to make sure I wrote that the scenario with the dogs was a missed dream sign and I did not turn lucid. I saw a few small colored papers with notes for me. One said that they would miss me, other one said to me to have a good flight. There were some blank ones as well. I remembered that I had to fly all the way from Europe back to home in California and I was not looking forward for such a long flight. I woke up. Missed dream signs: - The dogs that got mad at me. (In waking a dog NEVER gets mad at me. I approach at them, they sniff my hand and they like me. Even dogs with traumas from puppy age like me) - That odd family I had. - One of my cats talked. - My mom saying we were going to have breakfast in McDonald's due a stupid excuse. - Thinking about lucidity within a dream. - I was in Europe when I never left home. What I would have done if lucid: - Talk with the dog and ask him why did he attack me.

13.08.2010Managing Databases (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Well, I came from cards around 3 am and woke up at 7:30 am... such a short sleep, but I manager to recall a dream, entirely from daily residue. I was managing databases, handling clients, contacting clients and a lot more. This dream is about half a page long, all related with my new improvement in my business. Unfortunately, all I dreamed is conditional and I cannot share as I would name stuff that the Non Disclosure Independent Contractor agreement I signed would be violated. Missed dream signs: - Unknown. What I would have done if lucid: - I would probably try to look for someone to give me some advice to learn even faster all this stuff.
12.08.2010My brother was hurt (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID This was a very close chance to break my streak of recalling at least a dream on each single night. I went to bed extremely tired and woke up 30 minutes later with a dream recalled. That is all. I woke up a few times but fell asleep instantly. I was so so tired. In addition, a lot of good events are happening during waking, but a lot of new challenges to succeed are happening as well, so that influenced a lot. After I write this down (I have been sooooooo busy the whole day, nonstop until know) I will go to play cards with friends, and tomorrow another busy day, so this night is a dangerous one! But who knows, maybe I recall tons of dreams like I usually do, lol First and only dream: It was sunny outside, but I was at home. I was with a few DC and I was playing a game. My brother was younger and he was with my parents as well. I was surprised because my brother came without clothes, he wore only bad-aids, several of them around the entire body. He looked miserable, he had wounds everywhere around his body. He had one broken arm and a broken leg. I asked my mom what happened and she told me she would let me know later. They came from a party. Missed Dream Signs: - My brother and parents. What I would have done if lucid: - Probably nothing, really, go nuts as it was right after going to sleep so it was going to be a super short dream anyway.
11.08.2010Capture the flag and saving kittens. (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Not a lot of dreams recalled, just two. I went to bed very tired and I have been focused in my new improvement for my business. One fragments and one pretty long dream Second: I was going to play capture the flag with some friends. It was kind of a violent competition. I was in the red team and several DC were in the blue team. We were playing around a building. The field was both indoors and outdoors. It was a several story building. We had baseball bats, wooden swords and large wooden sticks. I found out that the entire blue team was fighting in our field. I was next to the red flag and I was alone. I decided if I grabbed our flag and I ran to their flag, I would gain victory for my team. I ran and jumped out the window (the blue team's flag was in the bottom floor) When I jumped, there was like a weird void almost next to the bottom floor. It was round and gray, made of iron. It slowed down my fall. I had to walk down a few more stairs, however, I had several blue team DC chasing me. I was afraid they would catch me, but I ran faster. I got to a small pedestal were their flag was supposed to be. I was excited because I knew we were going to win. I got next to the place but the flag was not there. I saw a stick without the flag. I started to worry a lot. I was trapped and I had to surrender my flag. I did and the blue team won. They were very happy about it. My team was upset with me. One told me, "We are a team, we do not work alone." I wanted to say that it was all about strategy, that I was not intending to work alone. I left the building with my wife, pretty upset about what happened. My wife was a little upset about the situation. We got to the movies and my wife wanted to buy popcorn for the entire team. I told her it would be a lot of cash and no way. A almost invisible tiny insect flew around us. I first was scared because I though it was a bee, after realizing it was not, I was not scared anymore, but my wife was. The building was a little old and it did not look very well. The building has been damaged due an earthquake. There were people that still lived in the building because they could not afford to go somewhere else. We saw like a garage were there was ruins. On the top of the ruins there was a wooden house. One of these mobile wooden homes. We recalled we had two kittens that got trapped in there. We tried to move the ruins to get our the kittens. I was afraid the house would fall over us. The house slippered from the ruins to above our heads. I was able to grab the house and set it away. I also found a black modern style couch, so I moved it away. We also grabbed a few lamps that were on our way. I looked outside and I saw a suburban neighborhood. They were all small homes. It was sunny outside. I felt like selling all that stuff. We would get some well earned money. Among all the ruins, we found pieces of a car. We teared them apart and I heard the noise of a kitten. We took out the stuff faster and I saw a small gray kitten coming out. We knew we needed to rescue another one. It came out fast as well, it was black. We were happy we had both kittens. One of them peed as soon as we saved him. I was wondering if our cats would be happy to see them again. I also realized that we could appear in the news. The kittens lasted for 159 days underneath the ruins. My wife went to pick up something she did not tell me. She entered into a building and one of her childhood friends lived there. I was wondering what did she need that I was not told. My wife went to meet this friend and came with a plastic bottle filled up with Albarino white wine. I asked her about a pair of pants she had on hold. When I told her she said that she did not want to remember because they were very expensive and could not afford them. I asked her where the pants were located. We entered inside a market, she pointed the pants would protect you from the cold weather. She brought me to a fridge were there were a few swordfishes covered in ice. She told me, "See? No pants, they are gone!" She turned around. The DC I saw leaving was not my wife anymore. It was a much older woman that only wore panties. I woke up. Missed dream signs: - Jumping five floors without damage. - I was able to levitate. - My wife getting afraid from a tiny insect. - I could hold a mobile home with my bare hands. - The kittens lasting so long without food/water. - The whole albarino wine thing. - Pants store next to fishes. What I would have done if lucid: - Head for a ToTY.
10.08.2010Talking about cards with an incoming Tsunami (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID Getting back into shape. Below my standards but at least a little decent recall. Two fragments and almost one long dream. Third: I was in a hotel with some DCs. Either a big earthquake or a Tsunami was about to happen. We knew we were going to die, but for some reason I cannot recall, we somehow deserved that. We left the hotel and it was very sunny. It was a very nice day indeed. I suggested to a DC to get drunk before the catastrophe happened. He replied, "So we do not suffer before dying, right?" I told him it was a great idea. We were seating on the top of a roof and I had a bottle of wine. The scenery changed and I was in a hotel with my wife. I felt a small earthquake and I adviced my wife we had to evacuate. When we were about to leave, I looked over the window and I saw a big wave: I though the wave was going to be bigger, so I said to my wife that we did not need to evacuate that fast. We went to the restaurant of the hotel instead and we saw a few DCs. We sat in a big table with a few friends. I had an oversized ball lightning MTG card I told him I wanted to use it, but the set symbol was not from the original set, The Dark. I told him I was very picky for that. He told me it did not matter. I found out that the card was like made of plastic. My wife told me I could use it on my deck. I told her it was an oversized card. I pulled an island from my binder and compared them. A DC (who is a friend in waking) told me I could give it to him. I informed him I liked the art and I was not going to give it away. However, I told him, "If you have the paper to print MTG cards then I will. We could print tons of ball lightnings and sell them for their original price of $20 a piece." He accepted. I moved to the corner of the table and two female DC sat in front of me. They had a notebook and I was about to share the thing about the card with them, but I woke up. Missed Dream Signs: - Predicting an Earthquake. - The oversized card. - Pulling an island from my binder (and island is not a card to be in a binder but in a regular box to use on multiple decks) - The ridiculous advice from my wife to use it on my deck (when the card was 10 times bigger than a regular card) - Trying to make a scam. What I would have done if lucid: - Head for a ToTY.

Third: I was outdoors, it was very cloudy and I went to an airport. I was talking with a few DCs. I was helping these DCs to do a few things I cannot recall. Someone prevented me to perform a few tasks I wanted to. I meet with a couple DC and we had a conversation about breathing underwater. I remembered I forgot to grab a bag that would help me to breath underwater. There was a chess tournament that was going to take place underwater. I was unsure if I would be able to complete the game as I could not breath underwater. I dove in and I saw a chess board. The room was all white with a wooden rectangle table in the middle. The pieces were spread around so i though I could not even get started. I saw another game next to this chess game. I placed the pieces in order to play. The white queen was a Sexy Marge Simpson. I think all the other pieces were normal. I looked around and when i looked back at the board, all the pieces were in the box again! Suddenly, I felt an earthquake. It was a small earthquake, it was around a Magnitude 6. A few DC got scared, but not me. I felt worse ones. A few seconds later, I felt a second earthquake. This time it was about Magnitude 6.5 I was not scared either, but I woke up. Missed dream signs: - I was breathing underwater. What I would have done if lucid: - Explore this odd place.
