    1. My Dream Terms

      by , 06-06-2014 at 04:23 AM
      As I have continued to journal my dreams in more vivid detail I have come up with a few dream terms that I may use to describe recurring elements in my dream. This was simply for the sake of brevity so that I won't have to describe the same thing every damn time Since this is the first page of my electronic dream journal I will go ahead and post this first. It seems appropriate.

      Since I am doing this I may as well ask: Does anyone else do this?

      Note: These definitions are based on my experiences with dreams and mine alone.


      Denizen
      Any non hostile dream figure.

      Familiar
      A familiar is a projection who is allied with the dreamer and/or is highly important in helping the dreamer’s progression in some way. The familiar will typically stick with the dreamer for a good portion of the dream. The dreamer and the familiar do not necessarily have to like each other as long as the familiar works with the dreamer. Once a familiar is encountered s/he may be encountered again in a later dream. In such a scenario the familiar may (and probably will) recognize the dreamer and vice-versa. I suppose you could say “once a familiar always a familiar.”

      Hostile
      A hostile is a standard enemy that the dreamer may face in a dream. Hostiles are set on working against the dreamer in some way. Gunmen, Zombies, or anything of the like would be considered a hostile. This one is pretty self explanatory.

      Heavy Hitter

      A heavy hitter is basically a hostile that is very much harder to take on, abscond from, or kill. They are the ones that cause the dreamer a great deal of trouble and pose a pretty nice challenge in a conflict. This could be a giant monster, an extremely powerful sorceress, a powerful super-villain, or simply another person who would pose a considerable challenge against the dreamer. The dreamer may spend a good amount of time dealing with a heavy hitter and it will usually leave a lasting impression on the dreamer after awakening.

      Siren
      A siren is one of the more dangerous types of projections that I have encountered yet. The modus operandi of a siren is very similar to that of a witch from “Left 4 Dead.” They walk around posing as normal denizens and may even begin to attach himself to the dreamer as a familiar. They may smile, laugh, and even exchange pleasantries. But once a siren is triggered s/he will reveal his/her true colors. In reality sirens are very feral, highly sadistic, and hell bent on killing the dreamer. Sirens are agile and considerably strong. Despite their feral ferocity, sirens are capable of using weapons such as knives and firearms making them that much more of a challenge. They can also take the form of animals. A siren’s physical appearance does not change once s/he is triggered. He still maintains the appearance of a normal denizen (typically a human). I have never been able to kill a siren.


      Boss
      A boss is a projection whom the dreamer is almost exclusively intent on hunting down, either to capture or to kill. A great deal of the dream is focused on this task. In normal cases with me a boss is the primary source of most problems and hostiles that I am faced with and any and all conflicts will be resolved once this particular projection is out of the picture. The boss does not necessarily have to do any fighting; I have spent entire dreams just chasing bosses down because they could not match me.


      Aperture
      An aperture is a random opening that leads the dreamer to (what seem like) completely random spots. For example: a closet door that takes one from his bedroom out to an open field or a classroom door that leads from the classroom out to the edge of space would be considered an aperture. Denizens and Hostiles alike seem to be aware of these apertures and use them just as I do.

    2. Blue Pool // Circus // Don't Tell My Mom // Rest Stop // Dog Fight

      by , 06-06-2014 at 02:48 AM (The Kestrel's Dreams)
      June 05, 2014




      Whoa, 6 Dreams (well, some Dreams and some Fragments) remembered!

      Blue Pool

      I was with Zukin and some people who claimed to be high-level Dreamers, and we were sitting on a sofa, talking about Lucid Dreaming (funny that we were talking about it but I didn't realize I was dreaming). Then we all moved to a room that was a pool. The whole room was a giant pool with a walkway down the middle. The tiles in the pool were mostly deep blue with some red ones. There were signs being made (like actual signs. Road signs.) somewhere in the room. They were popping out of a conveyor on the other side of the wall.

      I think I might have realized I was dreaming, but I woke up immediately. If I did realize, it didn't last long.




      Circus!

      I was a kid again in this dream. Maybe 10-14 years old. My dad and brothers were going to a circus. We walked into the lobby of the building it was in (it was on some upper floor of a large building). There were three other children there, with their guardian (I wasn't sure if it was their parent or not) in the lobby.

      We got into the elevator, the walls of which were lined with that yellow foamy insulator you find in crawl spaces and whatnot.

      We got out of the elevator and then sat down in this little play corner that was actually the seats for the audience. You were supposed to climb up to any seat we wanted. It's a bit hard to describe, but think of side-scrolling video games where there are ledges you have to jump up to and whatnot. So I'm trying to get up to the perfect seat, but I can't reach it.



      Then there were two fractions of dreams: One about playing my music over speakers, and another about sleeping downstairs in my laundry room. I was only wearing underwear (no bra) because it was really hot, and my dad came in and got all embarrassed. But I was still half asleep and still tired so I threw on a shirt and went to sleep in the car, since we were going somewhere that day. My mom was already sleeping in the back, so I just curled up in the passenger seat.




      Just Don't Tell my Mom, Okay?

      I was a student in a classroom, high school, I think. We were in the middle of class, and two punks had barged in; They were pushing my classmates around, badmouthing everyone, and extorting money from them and being general jerks. Eventually I got fed up with it and yelled at them from across the room, "You two need to GET. OUT."

      One of them got all bashful and apologized, getting ready to leave, but the other (the taller one) just stood in the door way with his arms crossed over his chest, glaring down his nose at me. I planted my feet and glared right back (I am short, so this must have been hilarious to watch), until he averted his gaze and then left, grumbling.

      About an hour later, another punk came to my classroom, and yelled, "Which Bitch is that told my boys to leave?!" Like an idiot, I stood up and said, "It was me." The guy looked like a Gangster Pimp.

      He took me out in the hall and I felt like he was gong to beat me, so I started to run away. I felt like a rabbit being chased by a wolf, and it felt hopeless. It felt like no matter where I ran, he would find me, and then beat me, rape me, verbally abuse me, who knows what.

      I eventually got to a door leading out of the building. It opened to a slope, exactly like the one Zukin and I slid down on our butts in Austria. It was steep and the soil was dry, and there were trees scattered sparsely. I slid down the slope, using the trees as check-points of a sort to control my path downward. I got to the bottom and looked up to see if he was following. He was inside still, I could see him glaring down at me from inside the door. It had started to rain, so I assumed that he wouldn't come out in order to keep his clothes clean (Or rather, his voice was in my head saying "The only reason I'm not going and getting you out there is to keep my clothes dry, bitch."). I started running to my left, and turned when the building made a corner. Around the corner was another door into the building. I figured I would go in and try to get a teacher. As I ran toward the door, to my right I heard a voice say, "You don't have to run. You have the power to manipulate him." I turned to see a man floating in the air. It looked like he was sitting in an invisible throne in the air. He had on clothes that appeared kinda jester-like. But more ragged. Colorful patches everywhere, a funny hat. His hair was long, for a guy, and messy. He has a sing-songy voice.

      I ignored what he said because the Gangster Pimp was going to kill me if I didn't keep running. I keep running, and I almost reach the door, but the Gangster Pimp comes out of a door a little further down and starts running after me. It's still raining, but we're under an awning now. I'm no longer safe, in the rain.

      I try to reach the door but he catches me just before I get there and corners me. "I'll teach you to mess with my boys!" He threatened, cracking his knuckles.
      "I didn't touch them! All I did was make them leave!"
      He hit me on the left side of my face. "Shut up, bitch! I'm a pimp and I protect my boys!"
      I didn't know what else to do, so I started begging and apologizing. "I'm sorry, okay? I won't do it again! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Just don't hit me again...!"
      And then out of the corner of my eye, I saw one of my old high school teachers coming outside. "Help! Help, Hafer! Mr. Hafer! This guy...!" But he didn't hear me at all, or else ignored me (which he wouldn't do; he was one of the best teachers I had in high school). He walked back inside, and I felt so alone.

      The Gangster Pimp raised his hand like he was going to hit me again, and I yelled, "You would hit a girl like that?!"
      Suddenly he got all sheepish. "D-don't say it like that!" He stammered.
      Suddenly I was scolding him. "And this is a new piercing. Do you know how much it hurts to get hit over a new piercing?!"
      "I'm sorry..."
      "And besides you should be in class!"
      "Yes Ma'am..."
      "Before that, go apologize to my classmates for disrupting our learning!"
      "Don't tell my mom about this, okay...?"
      We walk back to the tree-slope door for some reason, instead of taking the door right next to us. We wait under the overhang until the rain clears, to keep his clothes clean. Once it was clear, we start walking, and to my left, still where he had been before, was the jester-man, who had much the same feeling as The Face at the end of one of my previous dreams. He smiled (though it was more of a smirk) and said, "Told you." Then he vanished. I noticed then that the rain hadn't been falling on him; there was a circle of dry pavement around where he'd been.

      After getting back to my class, like right after the Gangster Pimp leaves, I got a text from him asking if I wanted to go to a rap concert with him. I don't know how he got my number.

      Then I either woke up or faded into the next dream...



      Rest Stop of Creepy

      I was on a car trip with my Dad, Erik, Bob, WW (my grandpa) and my uncle Nick. I don't know why my mom wasn't there. We were driving in some place with mountains and open prairie/almost desert. We stopped at a rest stop to get some things and while we were browsing, this weird man enters the store, and asks random people if he can buy them random junk from the store. He asked me if he could buy me some canned peaches and I said no. I kept saying no but he kept asking about other things he could buy me. Eventually I got him to go away, and picked up a chocolate milk, bringing it to my dad to pay for while I went to the bathroom.

      When I got out, I tried to find my family but they had left without me. I knew where we were going, so I figured I would just walk to catch up with them. I texted them to wait for me somewhere up the road, and turned out to the road. I went left (I get the feeling I was going west... but I'm directionally challenged so I don't know if that is true).

      I passed a couple buildings on a hill to my left. At some point I met a woman who handed me a box of water bottles and some paper cups, telling me to "keep strong." I was starting to panic because the sun was setting and I could hear some animals off in the distance. I had gotten out of the woodsy hills and was now in an open, relatively flat, prairie area. There were huge, majestic mountains to my right. It looked a little like the Tetons look from the road. I got to another hilly area and checked my phone to see if anyone had responded to my texts. Then I rounded a corner and found the van sitting at a lookout with a door open, waiting for me to jump in. I was pissed at them all and didn't speak to any of them for the rest of the ride.



      Dog Fights

      I was at Oma and Grandpa's house (in the living room with big windows), talking to my grandpa about his past. My family and some dogs I didn't know were playing outside in the back yard.

      Through the windows, I saw a pack of three foxes, larger than any normal fox, circle the group, as if hunting. I tried to warn my family, but they couldn't hear me from inside. Then, one of the foxes jumped at Erik, but he ducked just in time and didn't get hurt. Everyone starts yelling and the foxes run away. They were literally hopping/jumping as high as the trees, like Virginia (John Carter) in the movie. (Um, just sort of ignore that music in that video... There was loud music playing when I found the video. And then it lead to a hilarious moment when Zukin turned off her music and we both heard the music in this video for the first time)

      But after a few minutes, they come back with two large wolves. Then, all hell broke loose.
      There were suddenly a bunch of neighborhood dogs of all kinds, and the wolves and foxes were fighting the dogs. The dogs eventually fought off the wolves and foxes, but two of them were badly wounded. Their owners were there, and one of the really badly wounded ones, a newfie, was leaning on its owner and dying. It was really sad...

      Apparently, my grandpa had completely missed the whole thing. He's a bit deaf, so he hadn't heard any of the mayhem.

      Then I woke up.

    3. June 1

      by , 06-06-2014 at 01:05 AM
      The morning of June 1st I had another lucid dream. I'll describe the start of it, but as most of my lucid dreams in the past (haven't had that many) I find I will go with the intent of exploring the dream world but lucidity will slip back into a normal dream consciousness...

      I became lucid in a dark, cloudy empty space - I don't remember there being a ground. Looking up I saw that there were several floating islands high above me, so wanted to go explore. I had spiderman-like webbing abilities, so shot some webs up into nothing that quickly pulled me upwards. Arriving at one of the islands I found a large, castle-like building that I entered to explore. About this time I was no longer lucid and it turned more into a regular dream.

    4. May 31

      by , 06-06-2014 at 01:01 AM
      I joined this site on May 30th, so had read a fair amount about lucid dreaming and had it firmly on my mind. I wanted to have one that night, but alas, had none. The morning was a slow one, so I was able to go back to sleep several times with the intent of slipping into a lucid dream and: success!

      I slowly got out of bed, but realized as I did that I was leaving my physical body behind - I was dreaming! I moved to the door and thought, "There could be anything through this door, it doesn't need to be in my house" and went to explore. I opened the door to a wide hotel-style hallway with an older-style blue carpet with a diamond pattern. I walked to a T section, turned left and continued a little ways until I came to a more open area, with a steep stairway leading up on the far side of the room. Unfortunately, that was where the dream ended.

    5. 2 Lucid dreams and 1 false awakening

      by , 06-05-2014 at 08:11 PM
      I'm standing in my rec room talking to my drummer that use to be in my band when I realized that I must be dreaming, he then vanished and I focused on the dream seen so I could stabilize my lucidity. The room came into focus and I walked into my living room. I began to question if this actually wasn't a lucid dream, and I was really in waking reality do the the realness, so I tested it out. I tried levitating and sure enough I levitated! I then swam through the air over my couch then into my kitchen and over the kitchen table, then into the rec room and over my pool table. Suddenly I appeared at my grandmothers house and I was still lucid, so I walked out of her front door and I sat down to meditate on her front porch. Right when I did this I reached absolute stillness of mind and i was aware of the sounds of the dream seen and waking reality, my physical body and my dream body, I felt like I was zooming a million miles per hour. It then was getting so intense that I "woke up". I awoke in my bed, and this girl I use to be really close to was sitting right beside me. She said good morning Brandon, I said good morning Destiny. I then said, wow I just had this crazy Lucid dream then she vanished. I then "went back to bed" then I actually woke up. I decided to go back to bed and when I did I was standing in my front yard talking to my brother when I realized I was just in my bed, and now I'm here. I must be dreaming! So i leaped into the air and I went high above the trees and boy was it a beautiful view. I then said, "I demand speed" and I zoomed really fast, I said this over and over again untill I reached this ocean that was bubbling like a hot tub and I decided to land on one of the rocks in the ocean. I did and the warm water was above my waste and it felt great. I looked ahead of me and I seen a huge beautiful mountain range. I then started to loose lucidity so I said "clarity now" it worked for a sec but then I woke up. I performed a reality check and found I was back in waking reality.
    6. Tooth Falls Out - Fantastic!

      by , 06-05-2014 at 06:52 PM (Schmaven's Dream Journal of Randomness)
      I notice a painful sensation in my lower jaw on the left side, and investigate it with my tongue. There is a sharp edge where things should be smooth, on the first of the back teeth (the wide ones). I poke at it with my tongue some more to see what's going on with it, and it comes loose! I spit it into my hand, and find it is the top bit of one of my major chewing teeth, just minus the roots, and the insides. It's like a shell of a tooth, sort of like how a crab leaves a thin shell behind to grow a bigger one.

      I feel the spot where the tooth was again, and it is really smooth now, and a smooth bony lump where the tooth was. I know teeth can grow back, so I am happy that I will soon get a new, stronger exo-tooth in its place! It feels like trading in an old car for a new, more powerful model, just with a little wait time before getting to drive it.

      There are some tough looking thugs standing around me. I become aware of their presence and decide that if I were them, I'd like some warning about this kind of thing. So I warn them that I had no indication that anything was going to happen before it fell out, just a few seconds. Very odd.

    7. Dave's Insanity Sauce

      by , 06-05-2014 at 06:44 PM (Schmaven's Dream Journal of Randomness)
      Sitting down to eat a big bowl of rice with fried vegetables, I decide to spice it up with some hot sauce. I take the cap off a bottle of Dave's Insanity Sauce "The Hottest Sauce in the Universe" and pour an insane amount onto my rice. I mix it in and taste it a little. It's really good. I add lots more until the whole meal is red from the sauce and gobble it down. Half way through the feast, I think it's strange how I am managing to survive such a spicy sauce in this amount. But it's delicious! So I just enjoy it.

    8. #5. Testing Controllers on a Half Gamecube, #6. Building Contraptions

      by , 06-05-2014 at 06:28 PM
      6/4/2014

      I accidentally fail asleep before getting to dream incubation and mantras. I should go back to sitting up while I do all of this...


      In bed: 12:03 AM - 9:45 AM

      #5. I. 7:30 AM
      I am with my bro and mom. We just got a new Gamecube controller or two for some reason which even still have a few stickers on them as we take them out. We want to test them. We only have LB’s Gamecube around. It is strange because it is only half the height of a normal Gamecube because somehow she rigged it so that it’s only the top of the Gamecube yet it still works normally. We turn it on to test on.

      #6. II. 8:30 AM
      I am out with a bunch of other people at night time on a field. We have each built different contraptions, toys, things for some purpose. I have this weird snake toy thing that it is built around a sturdy wire that can be turned to change the shape of the snake. We form a line eventually which I realize later is to try out one of the people’s inventions. I am unsure what exactly it does, but there’s a helmet attached to a small machine and has something to do with mental health. I see people put the helmet on then start talking and telling their troubles and such. It is disconcerting to see people just saying all of this out loud to everyone around. Before long, there is just one person in front of me in the line. It is unclear whether she was about to be the next one to use it or had just been using it, but I watch as this girl that looks J gets arrested and taken away for whatever reason. It seems related to both the machine and the person in front of me. Me and the guy walk across the field diagonally to the other side where there are a few other people.

      This is a dream fragment from this morning. Been a while since I dreamt of the beach.

      I am standing on a sand dune overlooking the ocean. My dad is beside me. The dune is maybe 5 feet high, and it's damp. The sky is dark and cloudy, as if it's been raining or is going to. I decide to go down the dune to stand on the beach. I look down at my feet as I go. I'm barefoot, and it's high tide; the water is right there at the bottom of the dune. It's clear and cool, and a few inches deep. I wade around for a little while, and then I climb back up the dune - not noticing that my footprints from before are gone - and I rejoin my dad.

    10. Playing with time is fun!

      by , 06-05-2014 at 01:57 PM
      This dream/dreams happened to me when i started chaining DEILDs in the morning first few were not lucid but the last few ones were.
      I was on a side of a mountain and there was a dirt road leading to a village.I started walking on the dirt road but every step would make things more dark, when it got really dark i woke up but i remained still and got into another dream within 5-10 seconds.It was the same dream like before except this time the road was really bright and there was a white cow blocking my way, i fought the cow and emerged victorious.I got to the village and hid in a house waiting for the leader of the village so i can kill him.The 2 who entered first were his body guards who i killed quickly, then after shooting the leader with more than 20 bullets he died while laughing.I started to wake up again but i did not move and got into a new dream within seconds.I was in a store working normally, but then i noticed that im dreaming because in normally dont work in a store.Someone started coming into the store and it was a mom and 2 kids she had, i got out of the store and took the mom with me outside where i kissed her gently and started to hug her where i woke up again but i re-entered the same dream within seconds and started to try and go through stuff, but i failed at that :/ .I noticed a pretty girl her age was about 20 and i introduced her to my friend, i dont know why i did that .During all these dreams i noticed 1 thing that always annoys me.Its always night time unless i change it(i realized this while i was in the dream), so i started to play with the time and in the end i made it so the moon and the sun are out at the same time so its half day-half night and i made that the clouds and the sun/moon never move so its always the same time, this was one of my best lucid experiences.

    11. Rapping Dance Off

      by , 06-05-2014 at 12:25 PM
      I'm trying to remember my dreams better in general... I guess I kind of "lost it" when I quit writing in my journal every day.

      Last night I dreamed that I was in a room that was all mirrors on all the walls and it was filled with people. I think they were all teenagers, I must have been in high school. Then all the lights go off and we have to battle this robot that looked like a vacuum cleaner. One guy grabs the vacuum cleaner and puts it on like a backpack and now instead of being a vacuum cleaner it's a power washer. He starts washing the floor. Then music comes up (there are like really dim lights on at during all this) and I start rapping. I wish I could remember what I came up with because it wasn't from a song or anything, it was all freestyle and I feel like it was pretty good. Then everyone started dancing and everyone forgot about the robot we were supposed to fight.

      I woke up and fell back asleep and I was in the backyard with the dog and I had to take the trash to the curb. I remember the back gate was open and I mentioned something like, "that gate has been open all week, I'm surprised she didn't try to run away. She must really love us."

    12. Jimmy Fallon

      by , 06-05-2014 at 11:45 AM
      I'm in a parking lot, and my mom's talking to me about losing weight or curing herself of a disease, saying it's hard work. Google hasn't helped anyone, but they have reserved parking spots in their parking lots. Later, I'm discussing with my mom about why no bathroom is being used in my room back in Raleigh (we're in some sort of Japanese-style house), and I don't remember what she says (something about uncleanliness). I'm looking into fixing the bathroom? as well as other bathrooms? At the end, I'm talking to Jimmy Fallon about the issue I mentioned in the first line, and when I find something online he leans in to see what it is. Talking to my old roomie, mike, about something. I think he's talking about what he wants to do for a living? It may be related to music. Then there's something with an empty jug of milk. Kanye West lost in the world song (which was a spin-off of the mumford and sons song (only in the dream not irl)).

    13. The next level of tiredness... [05/06/14]

      by , 06-05-2014 at 11:07 AM (My lucid comeback!)
      Tonight I suffered from serious insomnia, I went to bed around 23:20 and fell asleep finally around 03:20 and I had to wake up next day at seven...

      1. House-party?

      This dream starts with me sitting in my bedroom and some friends are in my house for some party or schoolwork... I quikly walk to the computer to change the desktop cause I thought it was stupid. Don't know why, IRL it's just some mountains.) I think I changed it to a river or something, anyway then I quikly went to my bedroom to put away a teddybear that sat in a chair. (It's been there for years IRL and I don't really mind it.) Then I'm suddenly at school in a classroom alone, it's really late. (I think it was 02:30 which might be caused by my insomnia-night...) I am EXHAUSTED, I can barely move my legs yet I feel the urge to check if all cats are inside, I walk around and suddenly am in my living room where I open the door to the garden and look around, it's dark. I see most of the cats walking out of the door outside and I'm a bit annoyed by that. I quikly drive them back inside and close the door. Then I return to the abandoned classroom and sit on a chair watching the door, I pass out and wake up several hours later sitting on the chair, completly broken and still tired.

      2. Cars > Bicycles

      I'm driving around in Antwerp in some deserted Streets with a car, I feel as if something bad has happened like a robbery or a disaster. Then I see some friends riding bikes and I ask them something, they respond to me saying they're going to school, I drive to school and suddenly teleport to me riding a bike in school. I'm there just before the others arrive. I feel extremely tired again and I think I just crawl back to that chair from last dream.

      Even though it's just two dreams I do remember they were quiet detailed and seem to last 40 minutes each. Then take into consideration that I had barely slept that night and it's still a good result.

    14. Candy and Pizza

      I don't remember any of my dreams today.

      Edit: I just remembered a small fragment.
      I was in a classroom with two of my friends working on different designs of toilets. They were trying to give advice on regards to the direction the toilet needed to be taken, and I was a little off-put by the notion that they would be joining us in this project. My friend and I just got back from a party in which packs of candy were being given away for anyone who wanted it. These included snickers, whoppers, and other chocolate bars. I had a bag and I would just grab some and place them in. I also grabbed two washcloths with a strange print on them. I came back from the place and was was walking through the school with my friends and I tripped, spilling the food everywhere. I picked it back up with help from my friends, and finally entered a building. At the bottom of the steps was a homeless man begging for food. I had pizza, but I had to give it to someone else so I cut it in half and let him half some. He didn't feel I cut it down the middle fairly and grabbed a little extra, to my annoyance. I left, though I do remember seeing him later on in my dream.

      Bedtime mugwort tincture: bizarre/abstract dreams for the night. Nice night it turns out!

      Recall dreams from the night

      07:23

      + some leather-strap-wearing girls (I can see a bit of breast) are writhing/wriggling suggestively on the floor, why are they doing that?

      + some rabbits/animals are eating apples, some of the apples have black marks on them

      + I (somebody else?) waves their arms and the giant pile of snowy firewood stacks itself hundreds of feet up into the sky and a hundred yards wide, way up into the clouds

      + building a cabin from logs that are hundred of feet long, tall and black, I'm concerned about them falling over. It's a white/snowy environment.

      + Building a cavernous house, a single absolutely ginormous room, ceiling a hundred feet up, go in this house, I feel warm inside (don't usually notice dream temperature), I want a real window and keep trying to open one but all I get is a computer screen with a heavily pixelated / patterned picture of the view outside, someone tries to convince me that via manipulating multiple reflections this will become a realistic view

      + I'm observing and conversing with some woman who is simultaneously in and out of a wall-sized painting with a mostly blue background, a vertical strip of the painting next to me becomes discolored (green)?, she talks about why this happened (I forgot), the front door opens and blue paint flies in to fill the cracks in the painting and somebody else comes to inspect these cracks.

      + I'm standing at the top of a very tall structure outside, some immigrant workmen have brought 4 large pieces of new construction to be attached (looks like cheap particle board), they try to install one piece but it doesn't fit in the groove in the floor, I suggest removing a screw on the new piece, then I see that this screw when screwed back in won't help anything because the outside of the piece is weak cardboard, the screw won't hold on it.

      + splat cat: a scene outside like a park, daytime, two people have an easel set up and a black cat is repeatedly squashing itself against the canvas to form different abstract patterns, I only briefly see the form of the cat for a split second before it re-splats itself against the canvas time and time again, the patterns are solid black but look like magnetic particles in a magnetic field, sort of "sharp" and 3d.

      The splat cat people set up a table and the cat (some dark furred animal) climbs up on top of the table. There's a family sitting directly behind the splat cat people and they aren't bothered by this.

      There's a family outside, they're very close, the father and son are discussing what their plans are, someone has to do the laundry, they have a lot of dirty towels, but someone must remain at camp to guard their stuff while someone else is doing the laundry.

      + copy guys: they're making 5000 copies, they set up an impressive assembly line of copiers feeding one another at high speed, only real experts can do this, they're producing an impressive multi-color document, they also have a technique for squaring up piles of cardboard boxes (hitting the top of the boxes with a stick/hammer while vibrating their foot/leg against the side of the pile), I think this is a great technique

      There are probably 6 or more copiers, each one is shooting out its contribution to the pages of the document, the pages are all flowing on some assembly line, I"m hovering above as DO observing the process. The document assembly line moves from my right to my left and turns 90 degrees to the left and continues on.

      + packing fail: a bunch of people along with me are trying to assemble large (refrigerator-sized) cardboard boxes with foam inserts in order to pack (televisions?) but the boxes all fall apart in to pieces despite the cargo netting.

      + 5pm at the Skanky Ho restaurant. Arrive at the restaurant there's one ho sitting on a guy's lap. I just want to eat, but there are ho's everywhere, I really don't want them to approach me. There are couches and low coffee tables instead of regular tables, and lots of ho's wearing big fluffy curly black jackets, I think this is probably the main time for big business.

      + following the leaf on the path, trying to read its mind, I sense that it has purpose, I will try to influence it, I lose the leave, then things turn cartoon-y and there is a question about entering/repeating the video game.
