Pre Bed Supps: 250mg Valerian 30 mins prior, 100 mg 5htp at bed. Bed @ 1115

WBTB: 4am Supps: 3mg G, 250 C, 250 Valerian and .5 mel

Routine: Got up and took my Valerian right away to keep me rather calm and hopefully keep me on the sleepy side. Read some old DJ entries and went back to bed 25 minutes later, right before I layed down I took other supps.

Had one non lucid prior to WBTB and didn't have too hard of a time getting back to sleep.

Woke with this around 530 or so but didn't record till around 8 or 9.

I was downstairs in an inside/outside living area. I was lying in a bed and we were either really cleaning up or moving out of our house. My wife was upstairs throwing a bunch of stuff out of a window like papers and whatnot. I told her that it would probably make more sense if the bagged it up there so she didn't have to pick it up twice. She didn't really care for my comments. I layed down in bed to go to sleep with lucidity on my mine (this was in the dream), I woke again (FA) and there was a dog on my head. I ended up laying on the dog and trying to get back to sleep again, still thinking of lucidity. I put my head near the side of the bed and it kept sinking down further and further never ending. I thought that I might be in a dream at this point. I tried to open my eyes but it was very difficult, I could open them a bit but they would clamp back shut. After alot of struggling I got them to stay open but they were fluttering a bit. I fought a bit more and finally got them to stay open. I did a RC with my hand and brought it up to my face but couldn't see it. I tried again and again I couldn't see it. It was like I knew it was there and I should be able to see it but it just wasn't there. I rolled out of bed (didn't even get stuck in the covers this time) and was finally able to see my hands. They looked normal. Oh well, back to bed. I turned to get back in bed and it was now a tan couch now. I checked my hand again and really looked and noticed some awkwardness about them, then I saw the wavyness and the shrinking and growing of the fingers.

LUCID: I didn't study anything like I said I was and just walked over to the side of the room with some cabinets and a refrigerator. I was in a basement of a house, not huge just a single large room and a small bathroom off to the side. I went into the refrigerator since I wanted to try some more food and opened it. On the bottom I saw a can of peanut butter. I grabbed it and took off the lid and got some with my finger from inside the top ring of the container. It wasn't bad actually, tasted nutty at least. I just tasted didn't chew or swallow. I then decided to find some dog biscuits to do the task from last month. I went into one cabinet which had pots and pans. Then I told myself they were in this cabinet and opened a top one and there were a bunch of different bagged items. I went through a few of them not recognizing dog treats and then again I thought they are here in the back. I grabbed a yellow bag and tried to read it but couldn't make anything out. I knew they were either cat or dog treats. This will do. I opened it up and got a handful out. They were shaped as animals, kind of looked like the animal crackers but they had the color of a salami type meat. Pink with some of the white specks riddled through them. I dropped a couple on the floor for the dogs that were by me and then popped one in my mouth. It tasted meaty, nothing amazing or gross, just there really. I then began picking up the mess that I made, wrappers on the counter. I thought this was funny that I was cleaning up and it didn't matter but I kept doing it anyways. I tossed it all in the trashcan in the bathroom. I saw a window and thought to go out it but wanted to find some people to do the St Patties day TOTM on so stayed inside. I did however want to jump through the ceiling to get upstairs. I remember I pictured in my head this failing and it did. I jumped up and went through some of the ceiling tiles and came back down with broken tiles around me. Stairs it is. I headed for the stairs on the other side of the room and started climbing them. I was about half way up when I heard my daughter and wife talking about me liking frosting. Happily I replied "I do like frosting" and before I got to the door to go to the upstairs I woke up.

I was pretty excited I had this lucid that lasted probably 5 to 10 minutes after my previous 5 or 6 have been less than 10 seconds.

I've had trouble sleeping the past 2 nights and I think that is part of my problem. It's mostly because I'm somewhat sick I do believe.

But I really haven't been able to remember my dreams the past 2 nights. I remember having dreams, I just can't quite remember what they were.

There's a lot of stuff I don't remember, but there were two distinct settings. One was in a cave where I was raising Minecraft Creepers. Kind of. I remember that the baby creeper was only a head of the mob. I fended off monsters to keep it from exploding. At one point, I had a ton of them, and people adopted them. I still had some left over, and not all of them were creepers, I think. One was white, I think that might've been the one I was defending.

Then there was a two floor, both rectangular room. The first floor was the cafeteria, I think, and the second just had ledges at the walls of the room for people to walk on. I remember a bed was on this floor, it was white.

I grabbed lunch, but someone had took my chair while I was gone. I looked around for a stool, and that's all I can remember.

3 hertz and random body positions after I strike my alarm. The ten mintes seem to go by in less than a second. I have to constantly hit it.

After driving through a city which has Pepsi signs everywhere. I think pepsiman had less pepsi than this highway. I just closed my eyes to avoid it. Ventually my randim thoughts led me to ld wishing I could have one andone begins. I phase out of the car I was in and run down the highway to see someone with a color changing shirt. So when I pinch her for the totm she says "now which arm do I cut off?"

That was not expected. I just leave. At the end, I thought I should have told her 'both' so there could be an unconscios body and I could reference a brawl machinima.

AS I walk into A Parking lot, I slow down time so I can control myself better. I then do a front flip over a fence and atop a car to fall atop some bushes. After I do that I go to the other end where I meet a totally subconscious me.

I only feel questions I don't remember, and I only feel responses.

After some other stuff I finally make it to my house where it is really dark and I let my subc feeling make it light. It didn't turn out the best, but flukes always happen, no? Making sure all of this is remembered. I stop right here and don't deild.

Earlier that night I had this weird challange filled with lava that looked very minecrafty. Just kill everyone else. I survived for a long time. Also I remember a bubble that was held inside a stadium.

so I set my alarm to wake me up after 5 hours of sleep, but when it went off my approach towards dream recall was Utter Ambivalence, so I just went back to sleep. Man it's hard to care when you've just woken up. And the thought of squinting at the screen and trying to type was painful, so ... what do I do about that? >:U
Anyway, morning now, let's see

Dream (1): $$$ for ??
The earliest dream I had was about being in a mall with my boyfriend, and him letting me spend somewhat ridiculous amounts of money on something at one of those stall shop things. I'm not sure what it was; maybe it was ice cream. Maybe it was buying entrance into a video game? He trusted me to the point where he'd wander off and let me pay for both our whatever-it-was's (plane tickets?).

I have a distinct memory of fumbling with the dollar bills, much to the annoyance of the cashier, and pulling out $20's and $5's only for it to be the wrong amount of money. And okay there was definitely something about buying ice cream and toppings and junk, though I get the impression that buying things like this kept happening and was really the entire feature of the dream.

There was also something else about buying something nearby and seeing an adorable kid kinda standing around, but I can't remember what was said or anything.

Dream (2): Airplanes are P Gr8
Then the next dream I had was a bit more complicated and detailed. A frenemy of mine was messaging me talking about how he was in an airplane going somewhere, and I looked out the window to see two enooormous airplanes (SO COOL), a white one coming in for landing and a black one taking off with the frenemy inside. They were so close that I could easily see this frenemy through his window, wearing some snazzy red and white Beats headphones and looking down at his phone. Neat.

Next thing I knew I was on that plane, and my brother was there, yay. Or maybe there was a short transition in between where my brother and I were buying tickets? But I believe we were on the same plane as said frenemy, and it may have had to do with entering a game, or flying to where a game competition was.

But that detail didn't matter because next thing the plane was being forced to make an emergency landing. What I remember is that the pilot started to mention it or the plane started to dip down, and I looked out the front window somehow and realized we were apparently going to touch down on a highway. Part of my mind was like "hm I'm not scared by this hohoho" even though the pilot was clearly experiencing some stretched nerves, but hey, he was the guy who had to land right and maybe not crush any of the various cars or cause an enormous accident. It didn't feel like we were going particularly fast so I think that's why I wasn't worried. Slightly nervous, maybe, but not scared.

Anyway he managed to land on a clear stretch of the highway, though now we were slightly tilted because one of the wheels was on an elevated median of some sort, and he couldn't slow down because we were on a highway, and cars were behind us. So the airplane taxi'd and here my brain apparently lost interest because it didn't try to explain how we got an enormous airplane from the highway to a department store parking lot. But we did, because that was a fairly logical thing to have happen next. It just sort of happened.

So next thing we were out of the plane and in the department store, and now my mom was there and perhaps also my sister. My mom had the idea of signing us up for Judo, so we wandered over to the Judo section of the store where some students were fighting on a too-small carpet. Really each student pair was constantly in danger of walloping another nearby, but apparently it didn't matter.

So as soon as it became clear that I might actually sign up, my first concern (and non-concern) was that I would start using Judo to release my aggressions. But at the same time I was pretty stinking excited to be able to unleash my dormant rage~ but it seemed like the sort of thing that wouldn't be strictly allowed or ethical. Like maybe I'd get in trouble with the teacher or something. So of course the sign-up form reflected this; I got a piece of paper with three questions or so on it, one of which was something like "why do you want to sign up?" with a box underneath for a one-word answer, and I had to decide whether I was going to put "aggression" down like a toolbox. But that's where the dream ended so we'll never know.

I'm still not lucid but to be fair the only techniques I've been using are random reality checks and lazy WBTB's. Spring Break's coming up >:3

Three dreams in one night:

- A friend and I are watching a new TV series starring Berta from 2 1/2 Men, who is a barkeeper. She has to keep watch over an aggressive dog. The dog chases her and bites her leg. She gets loose and runs in the bath. But the door is only a saloon swing door and she tries to hold it shut with her hands. The dog bites off one of her fingers and tries to open the door. Suddenly my parents arrive in the entrance hall and the dog calms down.

- I'm having sex with my ex-girlfriend. We take a brake and she reads a magazine about sex toys. I wonder why we suddenly have sex and decide to check my wrist watch. It shows around 4:45 am. She says that she only got up ten minutes ago. I ask her what time it was then, but she answers that she doesn't remember. I conclude that I'm dreaming and decide to just continue having sex. But the dream ends a few seconds afterwards.

- I am in a zoo and want to meet my parents. I take a bus to their place when i realize that I should have gotten off the bus earlier. I get off and walk back. At a bakery I buy two tacos and an entry card for the zoo. Then my grandma appears and tells me that when I was younger we took videos when we went to that zoo. I suddenly see one of these videos where I am in front of a monkey cage and the monkeys are wearing weird masks.

Two dreams remembered last night, the first being pretty hazy. The second, however, was both more vivid and more funny in terms of what it meant.
I was at a house I didn't recognize with a bunch of friends I didn't recognize. Apparently we were trying to hide from some creature that was hunting us down. I hid between a small spot next to the wall behind a table. Sadly, that's about all I remember from this one.

This second dream was rather interesting. I wasn't in the dream at all, I was more like an observer to what was happening. In a way, it was like watching a movie. It seemed to be about a blonde-haired girl who was working for the police. However, as the movie progressed, weird things started happening, and the girl slowly came closer to becoming lucid, as it turned out everything going on around her was a dream. However, there were multiple things in her dream to try to keep her from getting lucid, including a sinister woman in a business suit. In the end, I don't remember if she ever got lucid or not. This dream was pretty funny though in that way, because it's like I was trying to convince myself that this was a dream, but the fact that I was watching it like a movie made it less obvious to me. Still, I take that as a good sign. Like, scratching the surface of awareness in a way.

1. [Non-Lucid] [Long]
I'm trying to get away from these people who are chasing me, I'm at a petrol station I think, then the bad guys show up in a black van and they get out and attack me with a long collapsed colourful umbrella, he tries to stab me in the eye with the chrome tip but luckily I move slightly and he misses, I then grab the umbrella and shout "RAPE, RAPE", they of course flee the scene and I acquired the umbrella, a cop on a motorbike shows up and says something too me then goes after the bad guys.
MISSION SUCCESS - ACQUIRE UMBRELLA

Now I'm in Minecraft and were in this place that we are trying to escape, I look around and see that the walls are quite high so I figure I would build a 1X1 tower, so i build this tower and its getting pretty tall...I look down at the ground and I start wobbling and become quite disoriented so I decide to start building up diagonally instead...I fall off...before I hit the ground I thought "No one better steel my umbrella :/".

I respawn and it seems we made it out of the room, as I respawn I see the world loading, while I'm looking around this spiral staircase thingy I notice due to the would loading that it also goes underground, so I go take a look and its dark so I run down the stair case while spamming redstone torches on the wall, they emitted a little light but disappear after being placed probably because I don't have permission to build.

2. [Non-Lucid]
I'm in this room with a big red sofa in the middle, I'm arguing with Neil about something then all of a sudden he throws a SKY remote at my and it hits me really hard in the side of my head and it wakes me up, the pain still lingers upon waking up.

I fall back to sleep and I'm in the same dream, I'm running as Neil is chasing me...were no in Minecraft and I run into this severely overgrown forest, I have to destroy leaves to carve a path, he almost catches me but I get away and escape the forest and that's the end of that.

Fragments:
Walking down these marble stairs while holding onto my Mum.
There's 3 ambulances outside this house, something about Walter White.

Possible dream signs:
Neil, Minecraft, Stairs, Mum, SKY remote?

In this dream it was my birthday (it is not), and I was in my office and suddenly realized people had snuck into my office for a birthday surprise. There were little tiny people (fairies?) dancing on my desk, but I noticed real size people (presumably coworkers?) behind me. The tiny people looked real, but I thought there must be real size people hidden under my desk directing these puppets.

My boss wanted me to buy orchid plants, so I bought two. He insisted that was not enough. He wanted lots, and then he wanted me to multiply them. I said that he did not understand that having lots of orchids was lots of work and a commitment. And as for multiplying, while I had had a few keikis on my orchids accidentally, but I could not reproduce that reliably, and pollinating orchids was too complicated. He would not listen to me though.

I approached some man I knew was important. Before we shook hands, he insisted I scan my wrist with a card from a deck of cards. It showed a two hour discrepancy between my time and now. I explained that I had done something benign that involved short term time travel. He said I should have remembered to correct that after I returned. I forgot.

Some reasons for why I dreamed these elements: my husband's birthday is coming up, my younger son believes fairies are real due to a former preschool teacher, I have orchids and neglect them too much, my sons have been playing lots of card games lately and there are cards everywhere in our home as a result, and I have been reading "The Power of Now" book by Eckhard Tolle which points out that we always live in the now and should not worry about the past and future.

00:00 Saturday 2014-03-08 competition #17 night #1

01:11 bedtime. Family serious situation event, no avoiding the lateness
Long to sleep, very stimulated. Required self-hypnosis relaxation, probably slept no earlier than 01:45

05:52

1) Cancan dancing party. Several couples in a room cancan dancing, small apartment living room combined with a kitchen, the women are stripping. I'm on the other side of the room, the women are sitting on the couch, they're wearing big fluffy cancan burlesque-dancing multi-layer skirts. Their legs are up and underwear sort of visible underneath all the layers of skirts. One of the men comically crawls out from the couch passing beneath one of the women beneath her skirts and reaches up for a feel as he goes by. A guy asks me something like "with all your super powers, are you able to avoid getting a hard-on with all this going on?"

2) I'm in some guy's house. I see a GIANT rat, beaver-sized, white. It's fairly slow, I think we absolutely have to catch it, we can't let it set up house underneath the guy's bed. I start to chase it, it goes from room to room. It goes in to the bathroom, I close the door on it to trap it and call to the guy. I'm in the bathroom holding a container/cup of soapy water, the rat has shrunk to the size of a small mouse, and it has dunked itself into the soapy water. "Oh, no, it's trying to drown itself!" I declare, I pour out the water and the rat/mouse under a faucet and turn it on, I'm trying to rinse off the rat to save it. It's not moving, the guy says too late, it's dead, it's gone, I keep trying to rinse it off to save it (directing the water into the mouth of the thing, "saving" it!), I see from below the rat mouth, there is a strange two-layers of mouth, larger outer mouth and a small normal rat looking inner mouth with long teeth open in a dead-looking position. I'm looking at these mouths for a while.

3) I've just arrived with my parents at their retirement complex (false location memory). My parents are behind me (I never see them), I'm leading the way into the stairwell, I remember this place, and I perceive that I know exactly that my parent's apartment is, and I want to show that I know the way by finding it myself. I intend to go up a set of stairs and down a hallway a bit. Still on the ground floor entry area, there's a very narrow pathway of uneven paving stones, we walk along this. I approach a table, it shows the remains of cups of drinks, my mother behind me says "see this shows there's always something going on here," there's no way around the table, so I start to climb up a chair to walk directly over the top of the table. Then I suddenly see two women sitting at the right side of the table, I step down immediately and say "oh I'm sorry I didn't see you," one of the women says "oh you saw us." I'm walking along the right of the table right by the two women. One of them does not look very old, young-side of middle-aged, dark hair. She addresses my mother talking about me saying "we have to bring him here more often for a visit," I think she's probably interested in me. I have a glimpse of a head of black hair with some strands of gray here and there. A gong sounds, my mother tells me that this is the signal that the group BBQ is starting, a midnight BBQ I think to myself. I want to go to the BBQ and eat something. Walking over open rolling grass hills, like a golf course, there's a man next to me, very distinguished looking with a big head of hair and a strong bifurcated chin, a Dudley Dooright looking sort of fellow, talking about his family, the women or one of the women at the table were in his family. A staff member arrives, we're at my parent's place, he opens (the dishwasher?) and there's a HUGE shelf of silverware, he gathers up a big armload of it to take to the BBQ, I think this is rude to take this stuff from my parents.

Long back to sleep. Figure might as well get up for WBTB

WBTB - sit in chair and continue relaxation. I'm avoiding looking at the time so I'm not sure exactly when I got back to bed.

Still hard to sleep, finally relax mind enough to head towards sleep, takes a lot of self-hypnosis relaxation but I finally fall asleep, no idea of the time.

???

I wake up, do some recall, don't record, no idea of the time, fall asleep again.

F1) in a house, we're visiting, a group of people, I'm looking around at the floor and we've totally trashed the place. Toys, food, garbage, everywhere. I think it's going to take a really long time to clean all this up.

F2) sitting with a group of people inside, someone hands me an envelope, it has something for me from a previous company, I'm opening the envelope and reading it, a guy comes around and I think he wants to read over my shoulder and I don't want him to.

F3) in a courtyard outside a home, there's a guy there, and a dumpster, and a ping pong ball inside the dumpster. A guy is grilling a multi-layer piece of chicken, I see him flip over the inner layer.

11:38

F4) mafia guys all stuffed together sitting in large wire grocery shopping cart, I'm standing right next to the cart. They're planning a big family meeting, I ask about what if you don't show up, they say you're considered as leaving the family and are as good as dead.

4) I enter a room where our young friend ND and a friend of hers are playing. I have a big bucket of water and I pour it out into a toilet. The water from the bottom of the toilet overflows badly (much more than whatI poured in) and floods the floor of the room. The water is sloshing and flowing around the room, it's about 6 inches deep. I'm scrambling around like crazy trying to figure out what to do I find a sort of mop and try to push the water towards one of a number of really big drains in the floor. One of the "drains" seems clogged so I turn the mop upside down and use the handle end and jam it down in to the "drain" to clear it up, a few times, it doesn't work, then I see more clearly that this particular thing in the floor was a fan and not a drain. At some point later the water has all drained out.

F5) wife on phone talking about costs of jazz lessons, she repeats, $65/hour. I think it takes a long time to learn jazz, my friends in school spent years in jazz band learning to play jazz, it's not something you can pick up quickly.

i am walking in the saddar town, its clear day, i see lots of action, there are open shops and every one is doing something, while walking suddenly my hands came in front of me from my pockets, i am staring at them and suddenly i realized i am dreaming i immediately glanced at one of the shop signs and did a reading RC, it worked. i am now standing at cross roads, roads are very big and spacious, i don't see any traffic, i remembered last night i was reading Robert Wagoner's book in which he mentioned something about a certain frequency or beam of light. i tried the same, suddenly my whole dream world starts to shake and i felt vibrations in my body, it got stronger and stronger, then i started to float upwards and kept floating, its like i am zooming out of Google earth from street view to globe view, but i get zooming out and out until i am in the void. i am thinking what was that, waited for another dream imagery to appear but i got to frustrated and opened my eyes.

Really bad night, had one of the worst dream recall but tomorrows will be better.

Dream
-my sister made some really nice food.
-I saw my counselor helping people with math and I told her that I will be seeing a new counselor today. (I did actually see a different counselor today in waking life)

ok so this was my first lucid dream. when it started i immediately knew what was going on so i tried to stay calm but i was like OH YEAH TIME TO HAVE SOME FUN so i tried to fly (which worked) and flew around until i found some big war going on so i turned invisible (i had a lot of control in the dream) and watched for a while. But when they ordered nukes i lost it, i got VERY VERY ANGRY and was suddenly covered by a ticklish feeling, my hair stood on end and i was surrounded by a bursting yellow aura plus i was visible again. i immediately knew that i had transformed into a super saiyan from dragonball z and i blasted the commander of the side that had ordered the nuke with a Kamehameha and then i landed and finished him off by punching him so hard that i think his neck broke. i just couldn't stand there and let him nuke innocent civilians (it was in a big city, now that i think about it i think it was new York)
but then i powered down from super saiyan and turned to speak to the other army but i was sucked through the floor into utter blackness and i was like what the hell so i tried to go ssj again but it dint work so i was really freaked out and was like but then i reached out and pushed back my bedclothes revealing to me that the bump i had felt in the dream as a fell through the floor was actually me falling off my bed. so that's where it ended, hope you enjoyed my story.

Had the best of dreams. A dream came true and I knew happiness.
