I may have just had my first lucid. In the dream, I was in a first-person video game. The backstory: I am an old, undead man whose wife is afraid of him and I need to catch her. I could see myself (well, my undead, dream self) in a mirror in a bathroom. The bathroom looked like my grandmother's, but nothing else did. Eventually, something happened and I was in front of the mirror again, but I looked like an Asian man. I said, "Wait, we're Asian now?" and, "Wait, am I dreaming again?" I plugged my nose and could still breathe (though it felt strange), so I knew I was dreaming. I closed my eyes and said, "Clean slate," and the dream world became a blank, white space. I closed my eyes and said my crush's name and she appeared. I immediately started having sex with her, but it felt strange. I felt detached. It didn't feel like I was *ahem* thrusting. In fact, the dream switched to third-person and ended quickly. Unfortunately, I wasn't tired enough to re-enter the dream. Now, I'm not entirely sure this was a true lucid. I didn't feel truly concious and felt detached, as I said before. Also, the sex part didn't go as I had planned it; I had planned to do a bit of romance and foreplay, as opposed to mindlessly diving into it. I think I either a.) was dreaming about being lucid or b.) attained lucidity, then lost it. Either way, it's progress!
Dream recall from today's WBTB/nap. Dream 1(fragments): I was on my PC and there was something about picture of a golden dragon. Dream 2(fragments): I was at home and i thought about doing RC, so i looked on my hands and they were rather normal. Dream faded out seconds after. Dream 3(fragments): Some stuff was going on at home again, also something with BSODs.

Now I know Ed’s running short of material. I found myself in an Ed-made episode of “Only Fools and Horses.” I had a nice fat wad of cannabis and Dell and Rodney (who were potless) were slavering over it. (I don’t remember this in any episode?) They tried every trick in the book to procure it (even though I was sharing with them) They rolled ridiculously fat reefers (which I objected to of course) and finally my wad disappeared completely and I tackled them "Where is it…C’mon, who’s got it?” I sat here wondering why my brain turns out such feeble (and, apparently pointless material) then I’m struck by the obvious again. The cannabis had gone…I couldn’t find where it had gone and one major dream sign for me is mislaying or not being able to find something…it was that DS that triggered my first lucidity. Doh! There are, so far, crumbs of comfort in most barren nights. One was the fact that I’d confidently not written this dream down (famous people…won’t forget it) When I finally got up it was gone and I cursed myself for not writing it down. I sat there for a while, trying to mentally reach out (as you do)…and it came back to me. Sometimes I think the brain works against me…then I realise that dream signs are being proferred all the time and and dream scenes built around things that could trigger lucidity if I wasn’t so “unaware” in the dream. So…put it there Ed….I love yer buddy…although you do seem to be too “soap-opera” in your output and you know how much I hate them…are you listening? You’re worse than the wife…at least she doesn’t know that lucidity isn’t a complete crock of shit, but you do…don’t you? You better do else what is this whole thing about?…if I can’t rely on you then who can I rely on you grey wrinkly splodge of fat (fade out)
1. Kazemaru and Hiroto (from Inazuma Eleven) lying on their backs fully clothed in a made-up bed. It was kind of like they were on stage, you could ‘feel’ the audience’s assumption, but when the characters open their mouth and say something deadpan, it turns into a comedy when you realize what’s going in, and everyone laughs. 2. I thiiink the setting was like in a cave on slab-like beds and maybe it was in a game. We were ‘watching’ some Saw-like horror movie. When I saw a character holding a device that cut out tongues (looked like a tongue cleaner), I had to bury my head under something. I remember at one point I ‘swam’ through the tunnels. I think I realized there was no water, and that’s when some seemed to appear to carry me. That’s when it seemed like in a game somehow. 3. Rane came in while I was on the computer, asking for help. I scrolled through an area in Firefox like ‘Group Your Tabs’, only I was scrolling through my tab pages like a picture slideshow. I was trying to find a ‘safe’ page to open and leave it on. Near the beginning, I passed by a page thumbnail showing a chest-up hentai girl with orange hair. I remember thinking that how would Rane know that was one of my pages, I could be anywhere on the net and it could be someone else’s content. ~Dipping a finger in creamer and tracing it around text on a yellow sticky note. Rane says “you’re weird”. I realize that I had used my dad’s French vanilla creamer instead of my own. I walk into a new room and realize that mom is the one who needed the help. She wanted me to get her some corn, and ‘milk instead of water’ (or the other way around).
I just spent the last two day hiking at the Grand Canyon. The only dream I remember while sleeping at Phantom Ranch at the bottom of the Grand Canyon was a brief fragment involving a cat. (I'm pretty sure the reason for this is because my friend and I saw a ringtail cat before going to bed.) Actually I know that I had a couple more dreams right as I was waking up, but I no longer remember them because as soon as I woke up my mind was completely on the fact that I was in the Grand Canyon.
Dream Fragment 1. Kayley mentioned that she couldn't live with her boyfriend as he drank too much and argued. She asked me if I thought it would work out between the two if she was to live in a separate house. Dream Fragment 2. Saw Luke B.
I was at a random house with Big Brother contestants(BBC). I was trying to squeeze a long air conditioner duct through the top of a window, in the bed room. I'm not too sure what we were using it for. There was BBC on the roof at one point. We were all sleeping in a bed room. I was on the floor with others. I could see BBC dancing outside of the window. I decided to get involved and bob my head to the music. Tully (BBC) put her hand out for me to hold, so we could have a dance. I held onto her hand and that's it. I didn't know what to do. Big Brother - Tully We were all sleeping again. I must have been uncomfortable and decided to move my legs to the opposite side of a BBC, and must have woken them. Someone next to them said something about ''Was it juicy, Carrots?'', they said YES. I remember putting my feet in a pile of carrots.
I was at my old house in blacks land. I must have been sleeping with my dog and I decided to jump out and sleep on the other mattress which was on the floor. I left the room and heard that Dad was still on the PC. I went back into my room, and Dad came in and mentioned that he was playing shit because he has been angry. Mum came into my room not long after and told me to jump back into my proper bed. I was now sitting at the dining table at stone hill house. I was trying to flatten a bag of brown sugar, so I could get all the air out of the bag. The air wouldn't leave the bag. I spilt some of the sugar on the table, and was trying to sweep it up back into the bag. I saw Dad kneeling down in the kitchen with my Mum. Dad looked upset and I think Mum said to him that she was going to leave him. He mentioned about my brother moving back in. I didn't want Dad to lose everything he worked for and was considering giving him 60,000 to help out. Dream ended.
I was at Burger King but it was a night club. I was with a Ashman, Sugar Sisters(SS) and Mikkayla. I was waiting at the bar and the SS gave me a condom. They offered to put it on with their mouth. I don't remember putting it on, but I know that I was embarrassed for them to put it on me in case I got on an erection . I was standing at the peeing tray having a piss, and I noticed that the condom was on my penis. I saw others standing next to me having a piss also. I saw the the SS come in with a guy, they must have offered to put the condom on him. They went into a cubical and I peaked through the open door and noticed the guy have sex (Doggy Style), with one of the SS (Katie). The other sister (Lucy) was a bit embarrassed because we had seen what was going on in the cubical. Big Brother - Sugar Sisters - Katie & Lucy Big Brother - Mikkayla As I left the toilets, I noticed that the dance floor was empty and I wanted to get this party back up and running. I started jumping around and having a good time, to hopefully get others to join in. It worked, a lot of people gradually started coming onto the dance floor. I remember seeing Luke B. I noticed a couple workers, cleaning and packing up the area which sold food. We all had to leave due to the place shutting down for good. I was bummed out because it was close to home, and could get home easier. I heard that there was going to be a club taking over, except it would hold R&B nights. There was have a sign saying ''RB Nights''. I was now with Ben F, and a few others. We were headed home, and I offered to walk home because it wasn't too far away. They insisted to take my home but I wouldn't let them. Dream ended.
Dream 1(fragments): I was playing some shmup which was horizontal and had lots of organic enemies and hexagons, there was some scoring system with collecting energy orbs and an player weapon that was like aura from Hellsinker. I almost went lucid at one point. Dream 2(fragments): Some kind of management game followed by brief false awakening. Dream 3: I was with someone and we were traveling through forests, then we came into some city and there was some virtual tournament we entered or something. We got some points that i spent on various things, some weapons and upgrades, also there was weird card system where one could pay fee and see half of the cards in selection and then get random one of those which gets turned into proper item and one could buy it, i've got some special ability 'card' from it. Then i looked through gamemodes and noticed one that haven't gotten played much, who i was with explained that it was pretty unbalanced. I got into one game and it was class based combat on pretty big arena in fog between two teams, there were also alot of mechas. Upon returning i've used the rest of points and we went infiltrating some very guarded place for some reason. It was building with alot of expensive looking stuff in it, like home of some millionaire. We were going through some rooms and there was one big open room with lots of seats and a bridge. The building was guarded by guards in black suits, who could be roughly split into three types: Rather short ones with melee weapons, average ones with some throwing weapons and fat ones that fired pool balls of all things from his hands and they were pretty quick and bouncy, but i could deflect them back, but they could too. We were mostly going stealth, though fighting at times, i've used claws and apparently some cannon while the person i was with used sniper rifle or some kind. Soon we were found and rather outnumbered, so i had to use some power that transported us between dimensions or something. Now we were in small enclosed area with tons of garbage, we have lost our inventories, but i've still had power. I managed to turn some garbage into generic 'matter' that looked like multicolored spheres and then caused some reaction making it multiple at rapid speed, turning into rainbow cubes, each of them had 999999 'matter' and i just kept multiplying them until we had infinite 'matter'. Then i've managed to craft some weapons out of that, teleporter device for myself and ultimate sniper rifle for person that was with me. Then i've teleported us somewhere, which were ruins of some city. I told person that it's too dangerous and that he should get out of and that i can finish this mission alone now, but he decided to be with me. Some huge mechas attacked us and i started using teleport device to summon armies of various creatures that rushed the mechas.
A newly-made vampire is sitting in a car parked in a garage early in the morning, and is refusing to get out of the car because he's afraid of the patches of sunlight in the garage, he's sure he won't be able to avoid touching them. He's a full-grown man, blonde, bearded, looks Scandinavian in ancestry. The driver, his maker, a dark-haired woman, is calling him a big baby and telling him he'll just have to take his chances. (Woke up. Back to sleep.) IRL friend S. is working with a theater company connected to a shop, which stocks videos of their shows although those videos are out of the way and most customers don't realize the shop and the theater company are connected. They're talking about having to close down (not sure if this refers to the theater company or the shop or both). A traveling woman reporter is commenting on some serial killer with an MO related to books, and observing that his trail coincidentally matches up with her travel patterns, she's joking about being suspected herself. A man and his daughter in a forest, the man had some oath with a bird, representative of the forest, and now there's a deer leg wrapped in parcel paper lying on the ground by their camp, violating that oath. He didn't kill or butcher the deer, that was someone else, but the parcel paper was his, borrowed, and this is going to lead to misunderstanding and enmity between him and the bird. The man and his daughter are leaving, she's objecting because it's not their fault but he insists that they don't argue, just go. I'm in my IRL mother's home, and ranting to her about that previous scene, which is now thought of as a Bible story. I'm opposed to its message - the final moral and point of the story is different, but this scene here, designating man as something separate from nature, is something I'm deeply frustrated by and I don't care that it's not the focus, I consider it irresponsible storytelling. My mother's deeply religious Christian IRL neighbor is visiting her with his two sons (the neighbor does have two sons IRL, but these two DCs bear no resemblance to them). Although he's not offended, he says that I should focus on the main message of the story instead. I had no intention of starting a religious debate and am happy to let the subject drop. His youngest son, on the other hand, has gotten angry and wants to prove the point to me. I find fanaticism attractive on him. I'm aware he's both attracted to and deeply uncomfortable with me, thoughts about queer issues and gender issues on my mind. He comes to the window where I've been standing and lifts a rock outside and throws it into a tree. (With his mind, apparently - there was some awareness that this was dream logic, and that if we'd been outside he would have just used his hands.) The conversation moves on to safer topics but I pull him aside, ask him what that was meant to prove. We go outside so he can finish making his point. He leads me over to his father's yard and shows me a hedge covered in red berries concealing a small tunnel leading underground. He seems afraid, but he says he's determined to make me a believer. He's so worked up about this I don't have the heart to tell him I'm already a believer, just not his variety of believer - this isn't the atheism-vs-theism debate he thinks it is - but that's all right. I'm still thinking about queer/gender issues when I get into the tunnel ahead of him. In the tunnel, I'm a girl (who, in the dream, I thought of as resembling the oldest Narnia girl - she doesn't particularly, but this scene reminds me of 80's fantasy movies in general) crawling on my hands and knees, while the boy with me is sitting on the grass outside, worrying. The dream 'camera' briefly switches to 3rd person, allowing me to see the boy, myself, and just around a bend in the tunnel, a door, open just a crack, showing a dimly lit room with a woman dancing inside, the Queen, and it's the inhumanly beautiful Queen I want to get a glimpse of, although the boy is convinced this is a bad idea. Back to 1st person, I reach the door, peer through and see an image as if the dream 'camera' has zoomed in, focused on the Queen's lips painted so dark they're nearly black, her throat, her decolletage, and an awareness of ornaments of frozen drops of water or tears, telling myself I must remember every detail of this. There's either a false awakening or a partial-awakening where I'm lying in bed 'recording' this dream, only to realize that I'm not physically writing anything, after which I actually did wake up and 'continue' writing right where I'd 'left off', the part where the boy threw the rock.

(This is from September 16.) I woke up into a lucid dream from an episode of sleep paralysis. I looked around and was in some kind of dorm room, there was a futon on the floor, a small area with a microwave and mini-fridge, and the regular dorm room surroundings. I also saw a mirror on the wall and wondered what I looked like, so I looked into the mirror and saw myself. I was confused at first, because I knew I had wings, but I couldn't see them in the mirror, so I kept concentrating on my reflection until my wings appeared. After that, I attempted to call Afiel into my dream, using every trick I could remember. Yelling his name, visualization, closing my eyes and reaching out, etc, but none of it worked. At that point I was annoyed, because this was my second lucid attempt to bring him about and I didn't want to fail again, but then I looked into the mirror while visualizing him and there was his reflection in the mirror! He was standing behind me; using the mirror had worked. I spun around and he was standing there looking all excited that we were able to do it, and I ran over squealing like a little girl and jumped into his arms. He said he honestly didn't think it would ever work and he was just humoring me all this time, and that he was "pleasantly surprised" when he woke up in my lucid dream. I wasn't sure how to leave the room since there was no door, but I had pretty good control and stuck out my hand, which caused a big hole to open up on the floor. We both jumped through it and came out on the other side in midair, just above the lowest layer of clouds and the ground below us like green patchwork. Afiel didn't seem to have a problem flying, right away he spread his wings and caught a current of wind. I, however, was immediately falling as soon as I exited the hole. I spread out my wings and tried to steady myself, and was able to finally get myself going in flight after a few failed attempts at hovering. As I flew, I saw Afiel much higher up, his huge black wings were maybe three times bigger than my little white ones and he was blocking out the sun. I followed him up and we just flew around together enjoying the view and laughing. I remember at one point seeing something interesting on the ground, so we landed in the grass and were surrounded by lots of cool old stone structures. We flew together through a lot of odd places just exploring, occasionally ending up in weird dimensions that didn't make sense. Every few minutes or so I would be surprised that my dream was so vivid and was lasting so long, and had this feeling that Afiel was somehow helping me keep it anchored. Even so, I kept randomly touching things and rubbing my hands together thinking it could possibly buy me more time. We flew through a weird ribbon-like thing in the sky and wound up in this scene that was a giant translucent blue cube about a mile in size that would start over at the beginning once we reached the end, like some kind of dimensional loop. On the sides of the cube I could see offices and floors of buildings just floating around strangely, and beyond that was infinite darkness. The darkness eventually closed in and the dream faded away.
> For some reason construction workers and the color yellow come to mind, Possibly also hay and sand and a desert. The construction workers might just mean that I haven't thought of this dream very much prior to writing this. UPDATE: I think this referred to the next Fallout video game! I'm not sure how exactly but I'm certain! (I decided to leave the above text, As I wrote it at about 3:40 AM, There.) > Recalled Dream #2. This one all started after Mother came home and I'm not sure if I was already sleeping for a while or not but she came upstairs and I tried to sleep as well as I could once she turned the TV on and started watching Dark Shadows, The 60s TV show in the same room I was in. (These are awake parts.) I (Dreaming) saw a resting (Probably sleeping) vampire in a coffin with a disembodied brain to his right side and a tube going from the brain to his feet. A woman had walked in on him while this was happening and she screamed and I knew he woke and had a difficult time not draining her of all her blood; I thought of her offering him some of her blood by her arm and that may have transfered to the dream. I then fell asleep deeper and was in the laundry room and thought of a cat, I think. We've had stray cats around here in waking life. I then went out the back door of the laundry room and thought to make one sound a whole world or to meditate on one whole sound in the distance. Meanwhile an episode of the TV show must've ended because the Dark Shadows music popped up in my dream with water receding from an area where I saw someone in and this was like a video game; There were magical portals around him/me and Xbox 360 notifications at the top of the screen which didn't always show up (As I may have been going through menus or in and out of the dream?) that said that someone wanted to play with me. Someone had died and the portals showed up, One was green and one was purple and another was another color. The Xbox 360 controller was hot and I had to keep moving it to not be burned and then I went in the house in the laundry room and I knew Father would wonder if I was going to bed as it was late; I think he asked me if I was going to bed. Also, I knew in the dream that it was 3 AM when I had the dream though this part about knowing the time might have applied earlier. > ? As of 12:08 PM > Lego Island 1-Esque; I was looking at Lego island top-down as if I were playing Zelda or the first Sim City game and I was shooting Donuts to Nick and Pizzas to the Brickster. Giving donuts to Nick made him go faster, Giving Pizzas to the brickster made him go slower. Lego Island was a much bigger place and there were at least two hospitals though I think there were three or four or more; One was in the southeast corner and one was on the west side and this time the Brickster wasn't targeting every single building, As far as I know he was targeting the hospitals and police stations. I also had a budget for the donuts so I could only shoot so many donuts to Nick at a time before I had to wait. At one point on the east side of the island I thought of eating donuts while I shot some to Nick.
Saturday, 9/21/13 Last night, bed 11pm - 8:30am DR1 - I'mstanding by the road. Behind it is some grass and some slow moving stream or river, or just a pond. Lots of old trees, leaves and branches on the ground and in the water. Looks like it has not been disturbed in a while. I cross it and end up in a large grassy area. Grass is tall, not cut. Like a meadow. Trees line the left side. I walk on the left side, deeper into the grassland. There is somebody showing me Inca atire. He keeps it wraped inside of a tree, so it stays preserved. The dress is white with a red stripe and maybe also yellow on it somewhere. I keep walking and I find a grey piece of cloth. It's similar to the inca dress. I meet more people. I feel like I'm alone, on some expedition. I can rely on nobody, but myself. Sun is going down. The sunlight is turning orange. I have maybe 15 min till sun goes down. I decide it's time to head back, so I don't have to go through the wilderness at dark. I turn around and start running. I make it in about 5 min and I'm surprised, how much longer it took me to get there, than to return. DR 2 - I'm cleaning someone's desk. Bunch of small pieces of paper and other trash. DR 3 - We have a bear cub on a leash and it's our pet. When I run, he gives chase and goes after my feet. I'm told not to encourage this predatory behaviour in him.
