I am the new batman, just finishing up the right bat costume. Unfortunately, I still have white socks, drive an old Buick, and work at a lousy low paying job. On the way home, I drive through the park, and see someone getting mugged. I'm too tired to stop and do anything about it after work, and have to work again early tomorrow, so I drive past, trying not to let them see I'm batman. Both of them see me, especially the white socks and white undershirt. I park the car in front of my house, and blow up an inflatable decoy batman to leave in the drivers seat. Going inside, I don't yet notice that the inflatable batman has somehow managed to start the car and put pressure on the gas pedal, slowly driving away down the street.

I run downstairs, and get on the motorcycle to chase after my car and recover it. Going way too fast, I nearly crash a few times, and get some good air time off speed bumps in the road. Finally, I crash the bike, it launches off a hill, and smashes into a stone archway leading down to the ocean. I go air-born, and slam into a castle wall. Not really hurt, just stunned, I lay there for a bit. The butler comes out, and yells at me furiously. I see the car! Running to my car to get away, the butler is in hot pursuit.

He chases me through town, and tries to ram me off the road. I slow down and dodge him, also slowing to avoid the river and cliff up ahead. He keeps going full speed, like he is going to turn around up there and come at me head on. Not knowing about the river and cliff, he careens right off the edge, smashing his car to pieces and being thrown out of it, down a hill thick with trees.

I walk down there to see what happened to him, and see no sign of him at all. Suddenly, he appears behind me with a garrote and tries to murder me with it. He exclaims something about being a well known bad guy by the name of ___ (forgot it). I grab the wire from around my neck, and flip him over my head, onto the ground, and kneel on his neck to choke him out.

Lately I have been reading on DVs how it is possible to choose love in face of nightmares or attackers, instead of fear or fight or flight responses. This is a bit from last night's dreams.

I was in a two story house with a basement, and it was at night. I believe I was on the second floor. Outside though I knew something from the sky was coming crashing down out beside the house. I'm not sure if it was a meteor or a UFO, but I knew something impacted close to where I was at. I was going downstairs to check it out. I was in the basement, and the lights were off, and I saw a glow of lights out side. Some were flashing, and I sensed that police were outside as well. For some reason I was getting really paranoid as with most scary dreams I have. I think the police were investigating whatever was outside and were about to come in and arrest me. I turned around in the house to try to run out the back but I knew they would probably catch me either way. At the last second though I realized I could face them with courage and love. At least to the best of my abilities. The dream was ending, but I felt a change in my gut and how I could approach the situation differently. I just can't get over how freaked out I feel in dreams and how it is always a "flight" choice I make. Or just hiding. Anyway, I have started to remember how to deal with these situations differently while in dreams so hopefully I can approach my fears and pursuers with courage and positive feelings next time!

Dream - 7:40AM

I'm on the basketball court at Range bank. I see the ball go over the small fence and decide to chase it down. I hurdle over the fence and start running at full pace. I see two DC's in the distance. I don't retrieve the ball and begin to make my way back to somewhere. The journey back is a strange one. I'm walking on a tight and narrow path, which is 2 - 3 meters off of the ground. I walk through an area which has grave stones.

I reach where I was destined to go, which was a class room. I see people around me and a teacher at the front of class, next to a whiteboard. The location changes to where the grave stones were, but we're still continuing what we were doing. I see the DC from earlier when I was chasing the ball. I call him out and ask if that was him I saw. The teacher says it was.
The convocation turns to spiritual and god. I take charge of the convocation and debate a few things, explaining something about out of body experiences. I was going to mention that I have had them before but never get around to it. Instead of talking, I'm explaining some things via text which is coming up on the whiteboard. I have a mind blank after a paragraph of writing and struggle to think about what to type next. I can see people getting angry due to waiting for me to finish writing. They're expressing their anger through a chat box which is under what I was writing.

False Awakening: (MISSED)

I'm recording my previous dream in a dream. I'm underneath the covers, trying to keep my eyes from seeing too much light as I may wake myself up too much to get back to sleep. I'm using my phone?? as a recorder. I play it back to myself and it definitely sounds like me. I expected it to not record too well, due to whispering into the device. At one point I move the device away from my house and down towards my hips. While still listening to my recording I can see myself on the screen, as if it was a video recording, not a voice recording. I waited for the moment where I moved the device away from my mouth to see if I could still be heard. I could still hear myself, except there was a few silent moments due to thinking of what to say next.

Surprised I missed my chance, as I've been performing RC's upon awakening majority of the times.

Dream Fragments:

Spoiler for Mature Content :

I'm watching the a porn star getting fucked by her ex boyfriend War Machine. I could see a close up of her face. Another man is now having sex with her. Both men had large penises.

This lucid dream is a part of a study with University of Missouri St. Louis conducted by SleepingSYNAPSE.
http://www.dreamviews.com/research/1...ticipants.html
I had to the opportunity to visit the campus and examine a room (Red) in waking life and revisit it in a lucid dream to measure dream memory. I was unaware of the other room (Blue) as being apart of the study and I found that I had very little waking memory of it.

SleepingSYNAPSE, I am including additional info that may not be in the packet as well as this more thorough account of the dreams. Yes, dreams. I actually had a hard WILD before the more successful but the first yielded undesirable outcomes. I didn't have the extra papers for two dreams so I recorded the better of the two. Still, I think you will be interested in reading both here.

On a more personal note, thanks for meeting with me on a Saturday and for the good times we enjoyed afterward. I was hesitant meeting a stranger in a big city, but I feel I have gained a friend. You are a good person. Your hospitality was appreciated by my wife and I.

#354 - WILD - 2:10AM

I enjoy a smooth WILD but enter a very unstable world. I do my usual dash for the front door and make it outside. I feel I need to rush to get the task done so I move quickly. I decide to "Hulk Jump" in the general direction of my goal.

When I visited the university in waking life, I took careful note of the building's exterior. There is a nice park there with a pond. I had decided beforehand to make that my landing site since it is a unique feature of the campus.

I make a giant leap over some trees and land in Bug Lake at the university with a splash. There are no physical feelings here; just the sound. I have some dark void issues so I splash around with my arms to stabilize as I think of the interior of the building.

I am now in a hallway, but it doesn't look like I recall. The walls are colored like some sort of abstract mural painting. Grass and sky? The dream crashes.

DEILD - I have some floating sleep paralysis sensations for a full minute or two.

I visualize and re-enter the hallways. I see something like an "under the sea painting" on the walls. There are way too many rooms and I feel lost. I really focus on finding the Red Room and eventually find a door that looks close enough. The dream is still really unstable as I enter the room. It's dark inside and I think to feel for a light switch but I know this almost never works.
I feel like I am in the void again so I focus on seeing.

When the lights come on, I see that I am in an empty and really tiny version of the room. I stretch my arms out and my hands touch adjacent walls. I wake up and think to DEILD but for some reason the dream felt really long so I decide to journal instead.

#355 - DILD (In-dream-WILD) - 3:16AM

After the first dream, I tried to WILD and again and thought I had done it but I later recall other things that happened first.

There was something about being worried about alarm clocks. I was afraid of it getting too late to get lucid and having to wake up. I look at the clock and see that its about 4:4[?]... almost 5am (Wake up time). I have a really hard time making out the last digit. It gets blurry and morphs a little. I recognize what is happening here and lay back down to complete my WILD efforts.

After a second and some SP sensations, I realize there is no need to still be laying here so I quickly get out of bed. I notice I am in my childhood home of Luling, TX. I find this annoying and try to imagine being at the university again. I look down as I walk and try to visualize some common tiling or an imagined version of what I think may have been the flooring at the university. I see some generic brown speckled tiling but I am still in the same house. I try to deny it, but I just can't make it change over. Time for plan B.

I go to the front door and have to actually unlock the dead bolt to get the door open. I recall the conversation with SleepingSYNAPSE about the guy that had a semi-lucid dream where he locked his wallet in the house and thought to summon the keys but not the wallet. This felt equally dumb, but I let the thought go as I start down the sidewalk.

At the end, there is a dark colored compact car running with headlights on. It's dark but when I get to the car, I see Jeremy B, from work sitting in the driver's seat. I recall how this scenario worked well for the Angel Falls Task Of The Year and get really excited. I look into the open window on the passenger side and Jeremy says something that I perceive to be really dorky but mildly funny (much like waking life). I think I may have found an intelligent and somewhat witty DC, but I am not sure what he said so I ask.
He stares at me like I am the dumb one for a second then says, "Oh nevermind. Just get in."
When I sit down in the passenger seat, I find myself teleported to the driver seat. Jeremy is now standing in the street peering in the open window on the driver side. Without a word he plugs his nose and jumps feet first into the blackness of the street as if it is deep water. Seeing him do this seems extremely cheesy and bizarre. I chuckle and say, "Well... Ooookay. Thanks."

I drive to the end of the block and make a right. As I do, use expectation to believe that the part of the university I want is on the next block. That would be the direction of my old high school in waking life so this allows an easy connection in my mind. The building looms just ahead in the night. There are the scattered trees with Bug Lake to the right. I grip the steering wheel for the first time... or maybe I just pull back on it like airplane controls, but I will the car to fly to a window, second from the top story. I don't bother counting floors this just feels right and I know it's all what I want to believe anyway. It's the fourth floor in waking life.

As I am about to crash through a large window, everything seems very much like something from a Harry Potter movie. A suit of armor spies me through a whimsical-style, barred window and runs out of the way. I phase the car more than crash and I see a Filch-look-a-like just outside of the room. Any other time this would have been freaking awesome as I have a "Patronus" goal in mind for the future, but at this moment I am very focused on the task. I dismiss the oddities without a second thought. Actually, I am more worried about the interior being too dark. The room has red carpet and looks vaguely medieval with gas wall sconces on either side of an open door giving very little light. However, the hallway that Filch was meandering down is brightly lit.

As I phase out the driver side door of the car, I feel the entire thing dissolve. I have desire to look at the effect, but decide that I better not, just in case I ruin the effect. Plus, I feel I am much cooler this way. I feel like some grand wizard doing amazing things, but not being particularity impressed with himself. Mastery. I leave the room in search of the rooms.

I spend what feels like a lot of time lost in a maze of hallways until I find the main room of the study. I really can't recall much here, but I thinking it was mostly garbage imagery anyway.

Now, I am in a strong and fairly accurate representation of the main room. I see a red door on the left and a blue door and the right. There is a counter and a hood vent on the other side. As I grab the door knob to open the red door, I have a feeling of anticipation. I note how very vivid the dream is and I feel pleased.

Inside, the room is disappointingly very much empty, but it's at least the correct size this time. The first thing I note is that the shelves to the left are gone so this excludes several items. There is no digital painting in front of me. The desk and end table are gone. The walls are a pea green and this seems right. I recall a something sleepingSYNAPSE told me in waking life. When he dreams of his house he notices what things are missing or incorrect. I feel the same way about this room and begin copying what he said he did in his dreams. I point to the things mentioned and say stuff like, "That's wrong. This is gone. That's not right. This should be there."

Something catches my eye. Where the large poster of the blond white woman should be, I see a very different one in it's place. It's really blurry and watery so I step closer to take a near-sighted examination of the picture. After a moment, it clears. The face is blurry but I see an African American man wearing a blue graduation gown, standing with his arm up in triumph. There is a mock diploma in his right hand and a huge grin on his face. I get the feeling this is some sort of lame university advertisement. There is some large black lettering on the bottom but I have already lost interest. Suddenly, I remember the last object to look for. CLOCK!

I turn around and see it where is should be to the left of the door way, overlapping the trim. At first the numbers look Roman but as I get closer, still having some slight nearsightedness, the numbers look Arabic. I recall there is a time question on the sheet in waking life so I take note. The hour hand is on the 6 and the minute hand is one the 7. No, there is an 8 where the 7 should be. I will it to be a 7 but the number really wants to be an 8 and there is a type of tug-o-war with it seeming to morph into an 8 on its own as I struggle to keep it a 7. I decide this little detail probably doesn't matter since I recall the waking life time to be 6:15. I try to think what the time actually is here but I quickly realize that I can't even begin to think about how to read the clock so I just make note of the hand locations one last time and then step out of the room.

Feeling somewhat accomplished and a little surprised that the dream is still going, I am ready for the Blue Room. When I step back into the Main Room, I notice there are a few changes. Mostly, there is now an extra blue door and instead of having a large pill-shaped covering, they are now entirely covered in blue construction paper. In fact, it all looks gift-wrapped. I start to go for the extra door but it feels wrong and there is some instability so I decide to go for the more correctly located door.

When I open the Blue Room I am surprised to see a vast bedroom with blue walls and white trim. The style is sort of Victorian with 3 twin beds and a dark wood chest of drawers. There is a large mirror mounted on top with something like a wash basin. It seems like there was a dark colored rug on the floor but I may be be recalling that wrong at this point. I feel shocked and confused so I step back out into the main room not really noting anything there and then back in. The room is basically the same but there is a sense that the furniture has moved slightly.

At this point I pretty much forget the University task as I feel this part of the dream has played itself out. Not really recalling any secondary goals, I start messing around with the dreamscape on impulse. I walk around the room and come to a very low light fixture about chest level with 3 or so unlit bulbs. I recall a scene from Oculus where Karen Gillian thinks she eats a light bulb while thinking it's an apple when it actually is an apple (Yes this movie is that weird). So, I decide to try eating a light bulb as I know I won't cut myself like she did (or thought she did) in the movie. I think to unscrew the bulb but decide that is too much work and I just pull. It resists a little put easily pops free. I put the entire fat end in my mouth and look in the mirror. My lips are distorted from the effort but I notice I look even more strange than that. My features resemble River Song from Doctor Who but with shorter hair and a melding of my waking life facial features and hers. I stare at this for a few seconds trying to will myself to look right but it's not working very well. I remember the light bulb and decide to chop down. I am surprise when I feel like I am biting into a plastic ball-pit ball. I spit it out and step away from the mirror.

At this point, I think menthol starts having it's adverse (or desired as some see it) effect. It seems like a really good idea to reward myself for having put so much effort into this dream experiment. I recall how I did something similar for the Cretaceous Period Task Of The Month awhile back and start searching the beds for a female companion.


Before I go on, I think I need to explain something. I visited SleepinSYNAPSE's father's restaurant in waking life while in St. Louis (Very nice place and awesome food!). In the men's restroom there were several posters of vintage female movie stars. The one that caught my attention the most is this classic image of Marylin Monroe's Breakfast In Bed.



Almost immediately, I find her in a sheet with one leg out. I don't think of her as MM but I'm not really concerned with the face. I know it's a dream and it's all not real. However, during the act, I do happen to take a look at the face and notice a very ugly version of MM. The hair was right but the face was very distorted. I pause for a second, unsure if I want to continue but I decide to just focus on other parts as I quickly finish up.

I decide that this dream has gone on long enough and I should wake myself before I forget all the details. I fall into the void but don't wake right way. I realize what is happening and struggle to shift back to the physical. I have images of making dream notes on my Galaxy Player, but I know this is false. I hit SP but instead of struggling to move the dream body I am doing the opposite until I reenter the physical. The effect was like a reverse WILD or reverse OBE... Very strange.

In one, I found the body of a childhood friend hanged in a room of my parents house. He killed himself because he discovered that the world was going to end violently and painfully one day at 8:00. I spent the rest of that dream investigating what he had learned. It seems "witches" were to wake up within people and they'd emerge hungry. I went into the secret basement I often dream about. But it was a different one than usual. There were gears under the ground in this one. If I stopped the gears, I'd stop the madness. But just as I discovered them, they kicked on, and with it a furnace and the door was sealed behind me. I was trapped to slowly burn or starve to death. I thought my friend had the right idea and wondered how I could myself.

I woke from that dream and had another with a similar theme. I don't remember it as vividly, other than silence descending on the world as I saw a wave of energy roll over the surface of land masses and kill everything in its path. It wasn't violent though. It was almost beautiful. It was a silence.
But then the dream changed and I was in a plane, trying to blow out the back (where the propeller was lol) so I'd be sucked into the sky. Just as I finished disassembling everything, the plane landed and I quickly covered my tracks so I could try again on the way back home.
At some point, 3 dogs were called by the owner (once on the ground somewhere) so I could take them with me. Being sucked out of the plane would somehow save us from something. I told the guy I wouldn't have time to go into the cargo hold to find them, but he said now-a-days he can just buy tickets for them and they could ride beside him (they were large dogs)

At some other point, I wrote a letter to God. It was a group letter from a lot of different people. I don't remember what I wrote.

What a bunch of weird dreams.

This lucid was short. I was standing on a bridge with a coy fish in my hand and simply thought, I am dreaming, which is my mantra but i hadnt said it before i fell asleep. I did not get much time before i lost my lucidity. I was staring at a brick wall observing the destabilization. I havent been updating my journal lately so sorry about that. Ive been a bit occupied lately.

1. I awoke out of my bed, my room was quite dark and there was a blue tint to everything. I got up and went to my closet to pick out a shirt to put on. As I was doing so, I looked back for a second and saw that my T.V. was on, and so was my old xbox. I thought nothing of it and continued to look for a shirt to put on. I found one and slipped it on. I think I remember putting on some shorts as well. After getting dressed, I left my room and looked at my parent's bedroom to see if they were asleep. They were, and as I looked at their doors I noticed that they were around 15 feet tall and had a purple outline around them.
The entrance to their bedroom was huge, but I continued on my way. I made a quick glimpse into my sisters room just because, and saw that the extra door was there. I then went into the spare bedroom of my house and saw my sister playing on her laptop. I asked her, "Hey do you want to go see whats inside of that extra door?". She said no, and that it scared her, so I went by myself. I walked into her room, and it had the same atmosphere as mine; really dark but everything had a blue tint to it. I looked to the far right corner of her room and saw the door(In previous dreams, this door always acted as an extension to another part of my house that I had never been to, and it was huge).
I opened the door and went inside. It was like a completely different house, and as usual, always gave off a creepy feeling. The lights were off in this entire other part of the house, so everything was really dark and had the same atmosphere as my room as well. I remember looking down into the downstairs section of this "extension" that no one in my family ever goes to. As I passed a corner, I saw my grandma. She rushed over to me and said, "What are you doing here? You need to get out of here right now", in a quiet but frantic voice.
I didn't know what she meant by "here", I hardly even know what this place is. I don't remember the rest of the dream.

2. I was with my dad near a freeway and I was driving some kind of weird car. The body of this car was a wooden platform with rounded edges. I was controlling it by remote I believe. As I was showing the "car" off to my dad, I crashed it into a wall and the car flipped but landed right side up. I continued driving, but this time I started driving in the direction of our house. It was night time outside, and the sky was clear.
As I kept on driving, I saw a huge ramp ahead of me, and some guy was working on it. The ramp was pretty big, and had a steep incline. It was red, black, and white in color, and I could tell that It wasn't completely finished. I sped up and decided that I was going to go for the jump anyways. Just as I came up on it and was about to go up the ramp, the guy working on it took away the main ramp part and I ended up just crashing into the foundation of it.
I "got out" of my car infuriated(even though I wasn't even inside of it in the first place) and ran after the guy that messed up my jump. He ran into his house which was right next to the ramp. I then proceeded to start running after a long-haired blonde dude nearby. He ran into his garage, and as he closed it I tried running in, but I couldn't. It was like there was an invisible wall blocking my path. I calmed down and looked around to see exactly where I was. I was on top of an apartment building. I walked down a small ramp walkway and got onto the ground.
I walked around a corner and starting going down an alley. As I turned this corner, I saw a tall, lean sign. I jumped up into the air and held onto the top of it(no idea why I did this). After holding on for a few seconds, I let go and continued down the alley. It was still dark, and everything was really quiet. The alley I was walking through, led to some kind of gated, small, grassy park. Instantly as I entered the grounds of this park, a voice came out of no where saying, "Time to begin the baseball bat rivalry!", or something along those lines. I was really confused. What was going on?
I looked over to my right and saw a few kids standing and shouting, "Yeah! Woooo!". I became very cautious, not knowing what to expect. Then, on my left, I saw a mexican dude holding a baseball bat approaching me. "I'm going to beat you to a pulp boy", he told me. This wasn't fair, I had nothing to defend myself. As this guy got closer to me, I kept a close eye on him, watching his every move. Once I passed a tree near me, I stopped and waited for this dude. He came at me and swung at my body. Right in the middle of his swing however, I grabbed his bat and turned the tide.
I really didn't think I would be able to do this, and I was really happy that I did. I approached this guy and swung at him. I hit him, and I continued doing this until he was on the ground. Once I saw that he was unconscious, I continued walking, trying to find a way out of this park. I looked to my left and saw an old man approaching me, and he too was armed with a baseball bat. I was still a little worried, but at least it was an even match. Once he got close to me, he swung. I blocked his swing with my bat, and started hitting him rapidly. I remember hitting him in the gut, but it didn't phase him.
Unfortunately, I had to hit this old man in the head, and I did so. I felt really guilty, but then I remembered, I didn't chose to be a part of this "game". I picked up the old man's baseball bat and waited on who ever was next. By dual-wielding two baseball bats, I knew that I was going to make it out and survive. Just then, Brad pitt started approaching me, along with some random old lady that had no weapon. I looked up into the sky for a second and noticed that it was already daytime. Brad Pitt had an extremely tall bottle of golden liquor in his hands, and I knew that he was going to hit me with it. I got cornered against a fence, and Brad Pitt got closer to me, he swung. I blocked his swing and when he swung again, I snatched the tall liquor bottle out of his hands.
The crowd that appeared around me roared in excitement. I had just won the "game". My friend Dylan had showed up out of no where and congratulated me. I opened the huge bottle of liquor that I took from Brad Pitt and took a really big gulp out of it. My god, the liquor was extremely strong and I could feel it burning in my throat. It burned more than any liquor I had ever drank before. I fell to the ground, wondering why I was stupid enough to take that big of a gulp out of the bottle. As I was on the ground, everything started feeling really hazy, and my throat was still burning.
After everything calmed down, I got up off the ground and stood up. I looked around and now this park was packed with people. People were walking to and fro everywhere. I looked in front of me, and in the park was a piano. I went up to it and started playing it. It functioned perfectly like a normal piano should. I played a short song, and while I was doing so a group of kids started to watch me. Suddenly, my sister came up next to me and told me that I was, "playing it too fast". I told her that she didn't know what she was talking about, she's never played the piano before.
All of the kids that were watching me, now came up to the piano and started playing it. I decided I was going to let them have some fun so I gave them more space by leaving the piano. As I walked away, my sister followed me. I started looking around for my dad, knowing that he must be around here somewhere. I walked around the park back into the alley, except, now the alley was some sort of public walkway and it had a flight of stairs that led down into a subway station. I saw my dad walking towards these stairs and he saw me. He motioned to me that he saw us and we started walking towards him. I then woke up.

3. I was at the bus ramp at my high school. I was walking with a girl and we were talking about something. I don't remember what we were talking about, or who she was, but only that I felt that she had "distracted" me and almost made me miss my bus. I started sprinting towards the front of the bus ramp, looking for my bus. I looked around for the bus number 4020, but I couldn't find it. My friend Patrick showed up next to me and told me what bus he was looking for. His bus number was bus 4976, which coincidentally, is the last 4 digits of his cell phone number in real life.
Patrick yelled, "Yes, I see my bus!", and started running towards it and got on. I decided that, because I couldn't find my bus, and that Patrick lives literally 10 houses down from me, that I was going to get on his bus and take it home. When I got on, everything was rather dark, and I sat in the seat next to Patrick. To my surprise, my friend Dylan was already on the bus as well. The bus started moving and we rode it home. Once we got to our stop, we all got off. Dylan invited me and Patrick to come over to his house for dinner, and we accepted.
Once we got inside of Dylan's house, we walked over to the dinner table, except for now, his dining room was where his kitchen usually is in real life. We all sat down at the dinner table and waited. The atmosphere inside of his house was really cozy, and everything was really nice as usual. Dylan's mom soon came to the table and placed in front of us a tray of dipping sauces. There were many different sauces, and my friend Dylan took a pumpkin pie dipping sauce. I thought that what he got looked good, so I took the last pumpkin pie dipping sauce.
My friend Patrick voiced his refusal to me and told me to give him the pumpkin sauce. I told him no, and that I was going to keep it and I even think I told him to "suck a nut", a phrase that we use commonly in waking life. Dylan's mom then sat down to the chair directly to the right of me. Dylan sat to the left of me, and Patrick sat at the right end of the table. Across from me, there were 2 random guys that none of us really knew. They were just sitting down, taking part in this dinner and yet they were unknown to us.
Dylan's mom then handed out the meal of the night. "I've got something really good for you boys tonight," she told us. She then placed down a few napkins in the middle of the table and told us to dig in. Dylan grabbed one big napkin, and so did Patrick and I. The two guys across from us didn't have any napkins, and they just sat there. I looked to my left and saw Dylan ripping off small pieces of his napkin and dipping them into his pumpkin sauce. I only thought it normal to do the same, and it didn't seem odd or anything, so I got my napkin and started dipping it into my sauce.
As I was doing so, I remembered the two guys across from me that had no napkin to eat. I ripped my napkin in half and was going to give them some. As I ripped my napkin, I ripped it really badly and the rip ended up being uneven, so I ripped part of it again so I split the entire napkin in half just to be fair, and gave it to the 2 guys. They told me something like, "Yeah that's right, give us some of your napkin". I looked a bit closer at these 2 guys and noticed that they looked very odd. The way they were dressed looked like they just came from Chicago in the winter season. They were dressed in heavy jackets and had some weird hats on.
I continued eating my napkin and started a conversation with Dylan's mom. When I first started talking to her, she called me johnny or some name close to it. She then realized that she had called me by the wrong name, and started calling me Brad(still not my name). How did she keep getting my name wrong? I then looked over to my left and there was a small sign that had the names on it that she would call me. The names would change, and whenever they did, Dylan's mom would start calling me whatever was on the sign. This happened about 2 more times, and one of the other names she called me was "Bradley". (BTW, Dylan's mom knows me really well in waking life, so no idea why this happened).
We continued to talk about something else, and I remember that I was about to tell Dylan's mom that she was "really feisty", but then it occurred to me that Dylan's dad might take that as some sort of sexual comment, so I didn't say it.

I should have written this one right when I woke up...but I didn't...and I'm left with fragments.

I was lucid - I don't remember how. Once again, I couldn't remember any of the things I wanted to do in my lucid dream (a sign of my recent scatterbrainedness, I'm sure) - so I decided to do backflips. Because why the hell not. Plus it's fun in zero gravity.

When I got bored of that, I decided to fly around on the threshold of Earth's atmosphere and outerspace. Flying around in Earth is moderately fun, flying around in space is great (except it's always BONE CHILLINGLY COLD FOR ME ), but flying on the threshold of the two is the best.

I flew up above the clouds. It was sunset...and beautiful!



I flew over the clouds quickly....the giant white clouds began to morph into thousands of doves. The clouds would just dissipate into these beautiful white doves that would scatter away! It was so amazing.

I flew up higher and into outerspace through the solar system. I flew really quickly past the planets and it made me feel a bit disorientated.



That was great, but I decided to come back home to Earth. When I landed, I saw a tornado on the horizon. I decided to fly into it, but I think I woke up before I reached it.

After forgetting how I became lucid, I did some things then suddenly remembered the adventures of redstar. I went over to a nearby house with a couch and clara wasn't there, figures. I tried to create her so I could actually continue the story but to no avail. I went outside and found I think the doctor and river song, walking together when I went up and stopped the story and was like "wheres clara" and then river song was like "haha, you always have to keep one door open in a house". I went to try that, and sadly, I woke up

05:00 still awake

05-06? very stimulated, familiar body buzzing feeling on G + Ch, difficult to get mind to stay at rest, "relieve tension," BTB

fall asleep somewhere around late 05? or perhaps 06?

06??

+ I'm lucid sitting on a bus, feel unstable, turn around to my right and see a guy sitting in the seat behind me smoking, I grab a strap that runs vertically along his body with my right hand and hold it firmly and say to him, "NO SMOKING ON THE BUS!!". I'd like to stabilize and get deeper into the dream but I can't take my right hand away (like if I did the dream would end) and I can't reach the right hand with my left. I lose visuals and I'm holding both hands on the bar on top of the seat in front of me. The bus starts pitching up and down violently like a ship in tall ocean waves, I feel the bus pitch down sharply and my body lifts up off the seat, still holding on to the bar in front of me, I wonder if the bus is going to start flying into space.

Transition: I'm now a DO flying above behind and to the right of a bus that's driving on a road. The world is a flat-shaded cartoon world: a lot is white, and it's very blocky. The bus turns left at an intersection and them pulls over to a building and stops. I call out "Hey are there any cartoon girls in there?" I see a little guy get off the bus and head in to the building, I follow him and call to him "are you going to show me your cartoon <ahem>?"

+ In a house, in front of a mirror, I pick up an electric toothbrush and turn it on. The sensation in my hand gives me an idea and I place the fairly strongly vibrating toothbrush in a NSFW way in several different positions looking for the best sensation.

+ (I may have been walking through my kitchen at one point). I have a shirt with a large red food stain on it, I feel generally kind of nervous/edgy. I'm outside my kitchen (on a patio?) looking down at my shirt every once in a while, when my friend MR appears in my kitchen looks at me picks something up in his hand and says "Hey <my name> why aren't you eating these pancakes?" I'm thinking those pancakes were cooked some while ago and may not be very clean. He takes a bite and says "pancakes are great for digging out cavities!"

+ colleague JT is holding a joint press statement with the police, they've found his kidnapped son after a long search, he's calling for leniency on the kidnapper -- his wife is hot and busty I see her topless with her arms over her head, get lucid, and enjoy the view and perhaps think about leaning in for some contact for a few seconds before waking up.

+ I'm standing in a hallway (feels like a house) and am immediately lucid. At the lucidity I notice the walls change from uncolored to colored in a modern color scheme: muted warm colored rectangles, smoky translucent glass arranged in patterns. I turn to my left and walk ahead slightly, my attention drawn by incredible colors and patterns. On a (bed?) in a room there I see a pile of cube-shaped pillows (about 4-6 inches on a side) that have a mixture of many different colors in various patterns (mostly straight/triangular lines). I'm astonished at the vivid colors and look at the scene for a few moment to make sure I can remember it. I remember TOTM basic (I) (foreign word) and turn back to where I started expecting to find some people. Just ahead I see the hallway open into a large open area and DCs are mulling around there. I walk up to one and try to say "tell me a foreign word and what it means," but I can barely open my mouth and can barely make any sound. I try again with another DC and the sounds are severely muted like trying to talk under water, the DC just walks away, I try once more and the DC looks at me with a quizzical "say that again?" look, and I slow down and try to speak very clearly. I think it comes out better and the DC answers something like "fribblety-splat". I repeat it back to make sure I heard it correctly. Then I ask her what it means, and she answers "the kakashka is in the F. U." Despite the success I go on to ask a few more DCs in the area and now I can speak clearly and freely. I'm eyeing some DC girls as they walk by, like one, then pick another (long curly blonde hair),

Spoiler for NSFW explicit:

and plan an encounter that calls for her to sit down. I look and see a counter with chairs that might work and I maneuver her there and sit her down and turn to face her. I pull my pants down (with some difficulty) and reach for her head, she's pulled away some, I do a jedi mind trick ("it's my dream you have to do what I want to") and she leans forwards, and right before the magical moment

I wake up.

08:15?
awake, recalling dreams, trying to get BTB, jerks are playing loud music outside somewhere

09:10 ? receive phone call, stand up answer it

Back to bed. I'm quite awake. Should I just get up for the day? NO! I feel I have at least one more LD in me and I'm probably still on the fumes from the G. Boy, I'm awake. OK, if you want it, you have to work for it. You've worked for this, you know what to do, DO IT!

So I do counting breathing up to about 50, that's not helping much, the counting is keeping me too aware. Do my classic sleep kung-fu: on every exhale, sink deeper into relaxation, let EVERYTHING go: mental, physical tension, on EVERY breath, let more and more go, let everything go! And in a short while .... I sleep!

+ I'm lucid in super crowded indoor space like a bookstore. I don't remember anything before this moment of lucidity. YES made it, 4th LD!, Start to to stabilize by rubbing my hands, hey, ... why not rub that cute girl's butt instead? I reach for her butt but she somehow knows what I'm doing and scoots off away from me really fast, I decide not to chase, I think it's pretty funny! Wow this is crowded, mostly young people, cute girls, push past them through a doorway and turn to the left. OK, NOW it's time for a girl! Wait...no, stabilize! I stop and rub my hands, and pound my chest with my fists a few times. At the pounding a DC who was sitting down next to me is startled, and gets down on the ground and scuttles/runs away like an insect. She was wearing a dark/black burka, like a muslim. I thought that was sort of funny/weird. Ah ha, I want to carry a bottle of water with me to stabilize! I think I'm holding a bottle of water and look down at my hands. WOW TRIPPY, my hands and parts of my arms to the wrist are not fully rendered yet by my brain, it looks like I'm wearing black translucent long gloves with bright lines circling all over and sparkles all over them, then I see the "paint" of my skin color creep quickly into my hands. Looks like a computer graphics effect! I'm now holding an empty bottle of water. I will for it to be filled with water. Wait a minute, no, Beer! Be filled with Beer! I see it fill with liquid. I upend the bottle to take a drink with my head back and my mouth open, and a few modest sized splashes of water (darn didn't get beer) hit my tongue and the roof of my mouth at the back of my mouth, the sensation is entirely realistic. I move the water bottle to my left hand. I remember my goal of chewing dream gum to stabilize and stay in the dream, I reach my right hand into my right pants pocket expecting to get some gum there, I feel a lot of coins and something like a wrapper, I bring my hand out and see some coins and an empty wrapper, ah well. I walk forwards (back the way I came) and people are still everywhere, I see a petite girl sitting in a chair

Spoiler for NSFW explicit:

and tell her to "show me your tits." I'm prepared to jedi mind trick her but she complies and starts taking off her top. I'm standing there watching and taking a drink from the water. I think this is taking too long. She gets her top off and I see her skin she's wearing a bra. I get quite excited, she starts taking off the bra and I

I wake up. I'm quite pleased that I got in my 4th lucid in one night, I'm really happy about this. I'm in a hallway in a large area and I look up and see a big analog clock and see that it shows 11 o'clock, wow I've slept quite late! Then I get a dream transition feeling and think "Hey maybe I can DEILD back in!", but I feel more awake, now I'm in bed, really awake, and realize I just missed a FA/transition to non-lucid, ARGH!

10:20 now really awake

Just bits and pieces again... non lucid ;(

Awfy cute wee fluffy white kittens. I studied them fir a whiley then looked at a brochure where their breed name was displayed. I deliberately said the name to myself a few times to remember. Guess what - I forgot! - The name had lots of O's & P's in it though.

Went to go into my shop, found it already open. It was unusually bright inside and there was a lassie standing just inside who I never took note of.

Panicking when doing my invoices as the prices seemed too high, then I remebred that we get the VAT back.

Looking at my rail of T shirts and thinking - I'd better get some large ones in.

- Jings - I think I need a holiday!!!

In this morning's journal I wrote"Strange dream (aren't most of them?) with lots of railway lines spontaneously generating inside a church. "

I've just realized what the dream was about. I spent a huge chunk of the last 8 months playing Minecraft...building railways both above ground and below ground in the many tunnels I dug. Included in that, there was a central hall through which I crossed to all 4 points of the compass.

We are surely advanced biological computers (until it comes to getting on with each other) and the "amateur scientist" in me wonders if some dreams (the bizarre one perhaps) are the brain deleting surplus data. Given the hours I tunneled and built surely most of that would be ditched eventually...leaving residual memory of each event so we can recall it

I read that some fairly important stuff also gets accidentally deleted...and other memories are "altered" giving rise to family arguments later on when there's conflicting recall.

What dream 2 was really about I haven't got a clue....yet

I think I was Playing video games with Chuckie and Tommy, holy crap I forgot most of this dream.
Change Scene
I was in a Structure with people and it from outside it looked like my school anyway I think this continued from my Rugrats dream. It's like a movie theater but anyway there are 2 tubes and me and the people I was with went in it and we were on a different floor. We were captured by some guy. Anyway eventually I escaped I run to the fence and climb over it and, this Girl with Black hair hears me I think she was my friend but she was mad at me so she called the person who captured me and a bus came by and started to move and I was sent away by a Tractor Beam back into the scructure.
Change Scene
I was a Balloon. A Hero for that matter. I got sliced in half and my organs came out I tell this girl to hurt me more so I can goto the ambulance.

8/18/14 Monday

Last night bed around 11 - 8:10am

Woke up from this dream:

We are in a restaurant, 4 girls, one of us is OpheliaBlue. It's a japanese style restaurant, because we are sitting on the floor with some very low tables.

The last course is coming and when I come back from the restroom Ophelia tells me that she ordered me some fruit, because she knows I don't like frutees. (I imagined frutees to be like an icee made of fruit.) I say, "well, I don't like frutees because I don't like fruit". And she says "well then you don't have adventurous taste". And she doesn't realy seem to care, so I don't say "my taste is adventurous plenty".

I have a feeling that the last course were some amuse-bouches on a skewer, like small balls of cantaloupe, or some meat, or 2 other choices. Ophelia, next time, just go with the meat for me pls. : D

DR before this one was quite long and interesting, I'm still trying to figure out why.

I was in small town where my grandma lives. Going in and out of her house, there is a gate to the street. I may have kicked someone's ass. Hopefully I'll remember it later.

Today, I got up 3 hours early, so I missed out on a big chunk of my REM sleep so I don't have as many dreams to record today.


1. I was outside of my house, but in my driveway. There was a blanket laying on the ground, so I picked it up and looked at it. It was black, and it had detailed lettering all on the inside of it. Suddenly I felt an unusual presence behind me, like that of a ghost or some sort. Quickly I got under the black blanket and hid myself. I looked over to my back door and could see a blurry figure standing there.
My fear grew as I lied on the ground. The blanket didn't fully cover me up, and I could tell that the ghost could see me(not usually scared of ghosts). I continued to try my best to fully cover myself under it, and this time, when I did, I saw something unusual. As I looked under the blanket at the lettering inside, the blanket began to tell me a story. This story was shown to me as some type of movie. In the movie, there was a man that was venturing across a vast desert, and it was specified to me that he was on a journey to get some kind of spiritual weapon.
The movie ended and as it did I inspected the writing on the inside of the blanket a little closer. I started to read the blanket and for some reason it terrified me. The blanket talked about god(im not religious, no offense to anyone else though) and how he was going to destroy all of those that opposed him. Some time later, I got up out of the blanket. I walked down to the front of my driveway and saw 3 of my close friends; Patrick, Dylan, and Trey.
"What are you guys doing?", I asked. They all replied, "Dude we're just chilling". I was pretty bored at the moment, so I didn't want to chill, besides, "chilling" to them was just sitting in a chair all day long doing nothing. They continued doing this, so I walked around some more. As I walked to the complete end of my driveway, I saw that I was not at my house. The house had changed, and now I was walking on the driveway of my friend Patrick's house.
It didn't phase me that I had just transported, so I just kept walking around. I looked up at the sky and it was a soft, ocean blue. The texture of the clouds stood out to me and looked really smooth and swirly. I looked back at the ground and on the driveway I saw 3 blue arrows pointing to the end of the driveway. I was wondering about who put them there, and then I "remembered" that Patrick's dad had painted those arrows on. There was one arrow on each side of the driveway, and one arrow in the middle. I remember walking back up the driveway again and stopping at the edge of Patrick's house. Something had caught my attention, but I don't remember what it was.

2. I was in some sort of weird dimension/video game, not sure what it was. The graphics in this place were like that out of a video game. I was with my friend Dylan, and we were in a cave that had an all brown interior. "Dylan, what is this place?", I asked. "Don't worry dude, I know what I'm doing, just follow my lead", he replied. I looked and noticed that Dylan had some kind of staff in his hand, it was a dull golden color and it had a ball of blue energy at the top of it. Dylan handed me the staff and we continued walking.
As we did so, and turned a corner, I was confronted by some 7 foot tall beast creature. I can't describe it because I have never seen anything like it before. It kind of resembled a gorilla, body wise, but looked nothing of the sort in the face. Its body was white and transparent as though it were a ghost. It was wearing transparent armor as well. Then it came to me, Dylan had said that these things were some type of spirit warriors, but the evil ones.
I shot this creature with my staff, and it died. I looked behind me and Dylan was gone. I turned around and walked back to where we first started and looked for him. The entire cave was giving off a really creepy vibe. Everything inside of this cave was covered in a thick layer of dirt. I came to the area where the dream began, but no one was there. My only choice now was to turn around a continue on, and that's what I did.
Immediately as I turned around, I was encountered by another one of those spirit warrior creatures. I shot him with my staff, but it didn't phase him. "This isn't good", I thought to myself. Then, I heard Dylan again, he was telling me to shoot it again. I shot the creature again, but it did nothing. Dylan then told me that I needed to get away from the creature right now, because he couldn't be killed(BTW I could only hear Dylan's voice, it was like he was talking to me through my mind). I ran away from this creature, only focused on trying to get away from it now.
I ran deeper into the cave, and all of a sudden my environment changed. Now I found myself in some sort of room. The walls were yellow and green, and I was with my friends again, along with a few other people I knew from school. The atmosphere of this place was that of an indoor fun house filled with inflatable slides and things as such. I talked to my friends and asked them what was going on. "Dude Adidas is about to release 3 pairs of their new shoes", Dylan told me. Patrick and Trey, who were right next to him, agreed.
Suddenly, 3 green containers emerged out of a wall behind my friends. We all went up to them. These were the boxes that Adidas was giving away. My friends got 2 boxes, and I grabbed the one in the middle. The boxes had a 3 toed paw on the top of it that was also green, along with a timer that showed how long one had to wait until the box could be opened. My friends tried opening their boxes now, and they tried pulling apart the box completely, but the box wouldn't open. It was like it was indestructible, and tamper evident.
As my friends continued trying to rip the box open, I looked at their timer and saw that it had increased the time that they needed to wait until it was going to open. Seeing this, I decided to leave my box alone and let the timer run out on its own. I went over to it and picked it up to move it somewhere else, but when I did, the timer reset itself. I didn't move it anymore and just let it sit on the ground. I continued waiting, but after another minute, the box started glitching and the timer would keep resetting itself every second. I got up and left the box in disgust.
I saw that my friends had done the same, and they were now talking to everyone else in the room. I went to where they were and saw that they were talking to my other friends, Brittany and Lisbeth from school. As I took part in the conversation, Brittany was telling us that Lisbeth was her real sister. It surprised me because I had never known that before. The two girls left to go do something real quick, and while they did, Patrick came up to me. "Dude she's pretty cute", he said. "Which one?", I asked. "Lisbeth, man, I think I'm going to go out with her", he told me.
This created a conflict inside of me, because I too had liked Lisbeth and was going to ask her out, but I didn't want to ruin my friendship with Patrick or anything, so I decided to stay low for now. I remember looking at Lisbeth, and she was wearing a bright green track jacket. She looked beautiful, but hey, she always does.

3. I was upstairs in my room, just chilling on my laptop. My room was huge now, and besides my bed, it was completely empty. Also, my bed was now in the bottom right corner of my room, and it too was a lot bigger in size;it seemed like it became king size. As I continued chilling, my mom walked into my room and asked if I wanted to go to some food restaurant to get something to eat(I don't remember what it was called). I said yes and started getting ready.
I turned off my laptop and put on my shoes. "Mom and Dad don't usually eat out this late, thats pretty odd" I thought to myself. I looked at my digital clock and it read 9:00 p.m. I turned off my light and left my room. As I left my room, I passed the spare bedroom which my sister was in(she likes playing her video games in that room). I saw that the light was on, and I assumed that she was staying here and wasn't coming with us. I remember thinking about how she might get scared, being alone in the house this late at night.
My parents were downstairs waiting for me. As I walked down my hallway to get to my stairs I felt a feeling of fear. Something was creeping me out. I don't know what it was, and I didn't really care to know either. I walked down the stairs and met up with my parents in the kitchen. My dad was really mad because earlier he hadn't got to eat any dinner, so he was really hungry and wanted to get to that restaurant fast. I remember the first part of the name of the restaurant we were going to, it was "Bacon".
I don't remember actually going to this restaurant, but I do remember coming back afterwards and looking in my pantry for more food. In dreams, whenever I look inside of my pantry or fridge, I always see weird food that I've never seen before. This time, I saw some more weird food, along with expired things, but I don't remember what they were.

4. I remember being in my house or somewhere like it, and I was aware. I was semi-lucid, but I kept getting distracted by the dream. My awareness kept coming to me on and off. I don't remember anything more except for that when I woke up, I really felt like something cool had happened.
