IRL I've been in show choir (singing and dancing group) for about 3 years now and I'm now a leader this year. In our show I have two solos which means a lot of pressure to not mess up, and this pressure makes me nervous every show. Last night I had a dream about show choir. Usually in my show choir dreams I'm on stage with my choir and I don't really know the moves or I'm forgetting them, but I don't actually care about messing up or get upset over it. This is why last night's dream was so different. The dream starts as we are running onto my school's stage to see that the entire place is filled with people that are screaming and cheering us on. The lights are very bright so I can't really make anybody out in the crowd but the people on stage are the people in my IRL choir. The show is going okay as people are doing random moves to a song I don't know and I'm looking at other people to see what moves they were because I clearly did not know them. When the chorus comes up IRL it's very quick and most people have trouble at first remembering the words and sometimes the moves. The chorus in my dream turns into a disaster. As it hits, no one knows the moves and they stop cold in their tracks along with me. This thought comes into my head that goes "no choir has ever had their entire show stop because people didn't know the moves, this is all my fault" and I run down the stage steps into the crowd crying. For probably 30 seconds I'm standing in dark matter by myself crying in my hands unaware that there is no world around me. I don't think I've cried this hard in a regular dream over something so stupid. It was like all the sadness that is in my mind went to this moment of just balling my eyes out for this absurd occurrence. Then I appear through a door into the chorus room where we have class to see our previous dance captain walking. I love this guy so much so I feel I ashamed him and this position. I walk over still crying into my hands and lean on his chest. I'm crying so hard I'm practically yelling my sobs. That dream ends and this morning I had a false awakening. IRL my phone plays a song and vibrates to wake me up, but in the dream my phone only vibrates. I get up and turn it off then immediately get out of me bed. I head for the shower and see there are clothes stacked up on the sink. Then I wake up for real.
Sleep – 10:35pm Wake ups – 5:35am, 7:25am, 8:35am Finial wake up – 8:50am WBTB – N/A Non-Lucid Lucid Not-Dream It was my birthday and I was walking down my street. I saw two police officers walking towards me and I recognised them as Tom and Jordan who go to my collage. As I got closer to them they both pulled out handcuffs while looking straight at me. I got nervous but carried on walking. When we were standing right next to get other, one of them pushed me to the ground and the other handcuffed me. I saw Tom walk over to a green electrical box nearby and open the door. He pushed a panel and revealed a secret place within the box. He pulled out a large book and then closed the panel and the door on the box. He then walked over to me and showed me the book. He told me that this si the book that they write down who they arrest and why. I asked them why they were arresting me because I had no idea. Jordan responded with “You know why, we should have to tell you”. He had a look that told me that I had apparently done something really bad. One of the picked me up and dragged me to a nearby police car. I got shoved into the back seats and tom got in the driver’s seat. Jordan got in the front passenger seat. We started driving off and neither of them said a word during the journey. I asked again why I was being arrested and where we were going but they didn’t respond. When we stopped, I could see a building on an island in a lake. The island was a couple of meters away from the shore and nothing was connecting the island to the shore. The building was quite tall and thin. It looked like it was made from concrete and it was all grey and rather dull looking. Tom got out of the car and laid two planks of wood that were quite this across the gap. Jordan opened my door and dragged me out. I was told that I had to cross the gap via the wooden planks. The planks didn’t look like they would hold my weight but I didn’t really have a choice. I stepped onto the plank and surprisingly it didn’t budge. I took a couple of more steps and I was about half way there. I noticed that Ton and Jordan were just standing there staring at me, not saying anything. I took a couple of more steps. I lost my balance and started to fall off. I managed to rebalance myself after a lot of flailing about. It was really hard to rebalance myself without using my arms. I heard Tom shout behind me “Hurry up, we don’t want any of the acrobat stuff”. A few more steps and I was now on the other side. I took a few steps towards the door and the turned around. Both Tom and Jordan were right behind me. I looked back at the door and saw that it was a large wooden set of double doors with windows cut into them. It had a couple of steps to get up to the door. Once again I was dragged up to the door. As the door opened I was pushed inside and then dragged to the left, into another room. Inside this room was 5 or 6 white settees facing a simple wooden desk. Sat on the settees were my whole family. My mum looked at me and said “Well, it’s been an interesting birthday hasn’t it Max” At some point in the dream I was still handcuffed but I was sitting at a table in the school resource centre. I was with Tom, Jordan and Preston. Preston was meant to be filling in some paperwork about my arrest but kept getting distracted. Then the Head of the police force walked into the room and sat at the table with us. He didn’t say anything but still made everyone extreme nervous.
I was guarding some kind of sewer. I was at the entrance, which resembled a well with a ladder going down. There were a bunch of creepy stuff in the sewer and it was my job to get rid of them. A girl from inside the sewer then called out and asked for help to get out. I didn't trust her one bit and went down there myself. She did something stupid that gave herself away and I beat the imposter up with what seemed to be a mace. After that i mostly ran into these kind of situations but I don't get fooled by anything. I even remember encountering a dog, which wasn't a real dog as I eventually discovered. After a while I stumble upon what seemed to be a kitchen and I then assume I've been everywhere in the sewer, and the dream ends. Even though it was really dark, I wasn't scared, I rather felt heroic while walking around in there.
My attachment and affection for familiar DCs came back to bite me in this one. They are so lifelike that in the moment they feel every bit as real as the actual person. I love my DCs but I may need to learn to get better about leaving them behind in certain situations. And I finally had the phase through a solid wall that I've been looking for! That's progress! Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid Lucid #67: All That You Can't Leave Behind I'm sitting on a carpeted floor talking to my friend BS about strength training, in particular his recent deadlifting injury. At some point, he offers me responsibility or a promotion of some kind, saying that I will be level "17+". It occurs to me that I almost always communicate with him online rather than in person and I become lucid. I see that I'm sitting on the floor of my master bedroom and BS has vanished. I know that I'm dreaming but the scene's almost distressingly vivid, sort of like a very realistic FA. Our laundry basket is in the middle of the floor but otherwise the room is impeccably organized. Yeah, definitely a dream. It looks like it's early morning and Wife isn't in the bed. I want out of the house to work on some tasks so I decide to phase right outside Alyzarin-style. I walk up to a wall that leads outside, imagining that it's not really there. But when I try to walk through it, it stops me. This time I imagine the house having that entire section of wall missing, but my phase attempt is still a failure. I take a few steps back and make one final run-up, focusing my mind on the fact that none of this exists... and pop right through the wall to the outside! My left shoulder slightly clips the window on the way through and a few stray fragments of glass fall with me to the driveway below. It may not have been the prettiest thing, but I'm happy to have finally phased through a solid wall again! I'd been looking at pictures of Angel Falls during my WBTB and it's fresh in my mind. I Hulk-jump hundreds of feet into the air, willing myself to land at Angel Falls. Instead I come crashing back to Earth on a broad downtown plaza next to a long row of elegant, sculptured water fountains. The plaza is busy this morning and working men and women walk purposefully past, seemingly oblivious to my landing. My 3-year-old son E is standing here watching the fountains. A few kids are playing in the fountains and I get the sense that he wants to join them. "Hey buddy!" I say. "I'm dreaming all of this." He pops his thumb into his mouth. I think that he's getting way too old to still be doing that. "That's a lucid dream!" he declares, and smiles slyly. I bend down and give him a hug. "That's right. We'll talk about this tomorrow. For now I'm going to take you with me." (I haven't thought through how dangerous it probably is to jump off of Angel Falls with a toddler.) I hoist him up to my shoulders the same way that I do every evening during part of our after-dinner walks. But somehow the lift feels awkward, strange, and too heavy. He slips out of my arms and crashes down to the plaza, landing hard on his forehead. He wails in pain and I hurriedly bend down to scoop him up. I'm terribly upset, bordering on losing lucidity. I check his face and I'm relieved to see that he's unmarked. I hug him tight to me as he squalls in my ear. I'm too emotional to hold the dream together and I wake up.

I had a goal, but I forgot it. The scenery was amazing though, and when I would get high on the castles It looked like it was in the sky, but more like Skyward Sword floating islands than anything else. The castles were reddish/brown and had moss all over them. In order to get from one place to another it was pretty much like Zelda games. Flip switch, climb vines. Very fun Awake: 2:00 (later than usual. :/) Seed: Zelda Vividness: 9 Awareness: 6 Length: 30-45 minutes Emotions: Fun! Dream Signs: Castles, Zelda, Clouds Lucid Techniques: MILD again. Forgot to SSILD at all last night. Fell Asleep: 2:10 Dream Title: Outhouse Living Dream: I was going out of my castle (yes... castles are in all my dreams from last night) and I ran into a friend of mine. Well, he is more of a facebook friend, I have never hung out with the guy, just talked to him in groups. He was showing me around his house, that was literally an outhouse. There was a toilet and a sink and a pink dildo in it. I saw that and tried to leave, but he wouldn't let me. He kept wanting to talk to me and hang out with me. I was just trying to get the picture of where that dildo had been out of my mind . I finally got away and to my castle. I sent my servants away and started meditating. Then he came back and started talking to me. I was quite annoyed.

Me, my brother in laws, and my dad were hanging out and the guy that was in the previous dream showed up. I don't have a problem with him IRL, but he brought his pink dildo and was being really creepy/clingy towards me. We all played video games for a while (time seemed to skip for this part) and then everyone but me and him left. They were trying to pass me the message that we would meet up later after he was gone, so I decided to go home. He asked if I could walk him home. I took him to his outhouse and went back to my castle. I started meditating and I noticed something fall out of my pocket. The pink dildo! I was grossed out and walked out of my house.

It was like Las Vegas inside, people gambling, acting like idiots, etc. I was walking past the slot machines (Because every slot machine is a one armed amputee waving hello). and I saw RDC I asked my sister if that was RDC and she said yes it was, amazing how that person can be here since we are so far from home. I asked her the time and she said 6:45. I told her we needed to get back to the game and she said "No it doesn't start till 7:00 and it is 6:15 now" I was convinced.

I really don't want to log this dream fragment but I went to "Chat" afyer thinking about it and Carousoul said "insects crawling all over you" (or something). It was mearn't as a trolling insult. But it was an EXPLOSIVE sync. It was the dream I woke from and wasn't going to log because it was to short and meaningless and icky. I told Carousoul the on the strength of that EXPLOSIVE sync I give Carousoul full permission to Troll me when ever she feels the need. She said "good" I said "HAHAHA What have I done? (squeek-squeek) In dream I thought Buckello my little white mouse tulpa was scurrying over my skin (arms). But when I looked I had two or three tiny insects scurrying and slipping off my arms. I was non-lucid so I couldn't remember what form my tulper was. So I took it for granted that these were my beloved tuloa. I studied these tiny insects. I couldn't recognise them. Then there was a sandy feel then I was awake. I kept trying to remember what insect possibly resembled them and finally thought they might be a cross between a tiny cicarda and something. Then I remember seeing a pic on the "Random Image Thread" of a dog-faced horse. It spoke to me of a creature representing "mans best friend" (the dog) and "a four legged friend" (horse) A four legged friend - Roy Rogers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkg2...e_gdata_player (1:10) 98,077 views I went looking for the dog-horse on that thread but I looked through 64 pages of the 93 pages so it was like looking for a "needle in a hay stack. So I chuffed-off to "Chat" and had that mindblowing interchange with Carousoul. I hadn't even put the dream in phone notes ( I'm doing that right now) So even if Carousoul was somehow hacked right into my phone she couldn't know I had insects crawling over my body in last nights dream.
This is a flying dream which happened when I had a fever, it was actually the night my fever finally broke. I was very tired and it felt better than usual when I put my head down in bed. The dream: I was going home after a bike ride on a street parallel to a park downhill on my left. There was a yellow school bus passing me and then I took off with my bike. Since it felt real and it was like the first time I flew "for real" I was kinda in shock when I landed in my driveway and didn't remember the flying in between taking off and landing. The next day, I don't know exactly where I went in the morning, maybe work, I only have a sense that it was in a big building with some blue on it, in an industrial sector not far from a shopping mall... (might be because of seeing new areas in my city from taking the bus from a new metro station...) Anyway, when I left the place, I remembered flying before and tried it again, but for some reason I had 2 pillows with me in a back pack and just held them under my bent elbows, my elbows were pointing outwards and my fists on my chest, and I took off! At first I was flying like 60-90 feet off the ground, then up to about 180 feet. It felt like a few days passed, like a fast forward, and I had left work again (whatever work was), and took off again... with the pillows. I decided to see how high I can get and man, I got as high as about 900 feet or more, the ground and all the streets looked like a neighborhood map! The wind was pretty strong and the left pillow slid to the edge of my elbow, but somehow stayed there... I got a bit scared of falling so I came down gradually and was ok. It was the weekend now and I decided to go for another flight, and I thought to try it without any pillows and it worked, it just took some more effort to stabilize. I got really high at night, it was beautiful, I even saw a plane about a mile away from me on my left. In flight I remembered a show I used to watch as a kid called The Little Vampire (The Little Vampire (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ) as the city looked similar to how they showed it. Now it got weird... I landed next to a bus stop and pay phone near an apartment building as I didn't have my cell with me, I was gonna call a friend. Who do I see walking down the path from the building? MY MOM, yet she's different, she looks more content. I wanted to tell her that I can fly and have been for about a week, she tells me to wait until we're inside to tell her. We get back to what looks like home, but it's in the apartment building, I think it's her place but it has the same furniture as in the house, no sign of my dad. She tells me she didn't know I could fly but that it was actually a hereditary trait for some on her side of the family... and then she pulls out a knitted suit for flying passed down from previous generations... I'm weirded out at first but then I start having ideas about improving it, like adding compartments to the sleeves to insert molded plastic to improve stability... My mom tells me not to go too high due to planes... I think that's around where I woke up... it was 1pm and I was sweaty but no more fever. Man, this is definitely one of the most detailed dreams I've ever had. In fact it's the one that made me do some research and led me to this site. I've had flying dreams before, but never where I controlled the flying so much, I really flew a lot, it was amazing. I wouldn't say it was a lucid dream though, just a vivid one. I've had 3 lucid dreams in my lifetime and I'm really excited about learning more. Those LDs will be in future posts.
i walked down the stairs, it became more dangerous, i count fingers understood that it was a dream and flew away. I was in my town and i wanted to go to China through the portal. I tried several times but found myself in the same place till the dream ended.
I am wondering around a subterranean cavern full of dwarfish folk. I have some sort of ring on my left hand. I looks like a glowing amber stone with silver twig designs woven over it. I am looking for something and the ring glows bright when I get close. I examine the ring closely and it seems that the more I look at it the more the amber cracks and falls away. I take the ring to Elrond who is nearby and he refashions it into a mounted stone on a silver band. I question him and comment how ugly it now looks. He tells me that this is the more modern fashion. I accept that as satisfactory though I really liked the look of the other one. (I'll have to draw it up soon) Before too long I notice I have wondered outside and it had grown dark. Wargs come out of the darkness and attack me. I switch to a third person view like I am playing a video game. I am pushing the green A button on the XBOX controller but I also feel as is I am the character in the game. I see a hobbit version of myself jumping and scrabbling and running to avoid the wargs. It is no use I become over ran and everything goes black. I wake near a camp fire with a minor injury to my chest and shoulder. Apparently Legolas and Gimli rescued me after I passed out. Legolas tells me there is food. I see a string of several large trout like fish on some rocks. I begin to prepare the fish near the camp fire but the fire keeps going out and relighting itself. Every time it goes large evil looking hairless bears come out of the darkness to eat me. But just as I am about to get it the fire relights and the bears vanish. Unfortunately I end up knocking over a pot of water on the fire and it goes out for good. Just when I think I am done. I see a bright flash of light. It is Gandolf and his staff. He came just at the right time. I try to make my way too him but all I see is a bright light like a huge spot light pointed straight at me. It is blinding. Then, I see a second. I pause at the strangeness of this. It looks like twin suns and I am reminded of something. I think it's dream sign but it doesn't register what that means. I am too frightened to care and only want to get to safety. This time the light engulfs me. I look away from the light and find myself at work. My boss has been kidnapped. I and several co-workers go look around for clues. I see a strange metal hand print device on her desk. I push on it and the wall spins around to reveal a hidden room. All we can find is booze and food and candy. I say, "Considering what has happened; I think we can over look this." I wanted to keep it quiet but I excitedly tell E all about it. Then I hear a loud computer voice say my real life email address and "recover fail". I think someone is hacking into my computer so I rush over to an area with desks and computers. I see JG and DL playing a prank on someone's computer. I think it is mine but I just watch and see what they are doing. They have a bag of commonly used keyboard keys that they popped off the keyboard. They tape the bag to the back of the monitor. They look at each other and laugh. I think they are idiots. Then the take fists full of hair and tape it the desk. I try to think of a way to get into their office and get them back. I know it will be tough and I feel clueless. But no. I realize it is "Fat Amy's" (From Pitch Perfect) desk. She is sitting right there letting them do it. Then, for some reason, I tell her, "I think JG wants to give you a blow job." She tells me, "He can't. I'm too tough." I wake up. I recalled 2 other dreams and 2 fragment as well but this was be best one. I freaking love LOTR!
02/19/13 Blaine is a Pain I am in the back yard of my house. It is nighttime. I am holding a burning match. There is a small pile of kindling in front of me, and on top of that pile of kindling is a toy that looks like Altaïr. For some reason I want to watch it burn. I pour a bit of alcohol on the toy to make sure it burns good, I'm not sure if the plastic will burn or melt. I toss the match into the pile and watch the fire blaze up, brighter than I had thought it would be. The toy melts and distorts as it burns, stretching the face into an expression that looks like pain. But no… it's a toy… toys don't feel pain. I don't want to watch it burn after all. I want to put the fire out and restore the toy to its previous condition. But it's too late for that. The face has now melted beyond recognition. The toy is a smoldering pile of plastic. I can't believe I just burned my toy Altaïr. Why did I do that? I pinch my nose to block the smell of burning plastic. I can still breathe. This is a dream! My concern with a toy Altaïr has faded, and now I focus on opening a portal to a Dark Tower dream. I want to pick up MoSh first. The portal seems to shift. I reach through and grab MoSh's hand without really looking at the surrounding area. I pull him through a second portal. On the other side of the portal we are in what looks like the interior of a very fancy train. The walls have no windows, and I see we are not alone. Roland, Susanna, Eddie, Jake, and Oy are all in the train staring at us. The portal closes behind us. Blaine is the first to speak, giving a formal greeting to (MoSh's real name) of (MoSh's place of birth) and Raven Knight of (my place of birth). I say hello to Blaine. Blaine says they were just getting started on some riddles. He says our interruption is quite rude, but also interesting… so he would refrain from killing us, and we could join in the riddling. Susanna asks a riddle, an easy one. What has four wheels and flies? Blain pauses, then irritatedly says it's the town garbage wagon. He says dumb riddles like that won't keep us alive. MoSh blurts out a riddle… why don't zombies eat clowns? Blaine is annoyed again, but pauses before he says they taste funny… now tell a real one. A little voice says not to make Blaine angry… please… what can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a bed but never sleeps, has a face but never weeps. Blaine answers quickly this time… a river. Roland asks what has four legs in the morning, two at noon, three at night. Blaine answers a human. Eddie told the next riddle. No sooner spoken than broken. Blaine answers silence. He asks me for a riddle. I think for a bit… then tell a riddle from The Hobbit. It cannot be seen, cannot be felt, cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills, and empty holes it fills. It comes first and follows after, ends life, kills laughter. Blaine answers immediately. Darkness. The riddles continue, Roland telling them all, Blaine answering instantly. Susanna asks me quietly if I can't open one of those doors to get us all off of Blaine. I know I can, but that would disrupt the story… so I tell her I can't always control where they go, so that would be a last resort. Blaine says skipping out on our agreement would be very rude. Eddie looks like he is zoned off into some other world. I am trying to think of some riddles, just to pass more time until we get closer to our destination. Then is the time for the riddles that will drive Blaine insane. But I wake up. Riddles in the Train I am inside Blaine the Mono as if no time has passed. It seems even Blaine hasn't noticed I disappeared, or at least hasn't said anything about it. Roland is still telling riddles. Eddie still seems zoned into another world. I sit down on one of the seats, not even sure why I am here. Blaine sounds amused, but doesn't seem close to being stumped. I figure since he's a computer, if he hears a riddle, either the answer will be in his memory or it won't… so he'll either answer instantly or not at all. So far he is answering instantly. Blaine comes to a point where he charges his batteries near some large waterfalls. The outside of the train has become transparent to show a massive waterfall pouring past two large dog statues. Then there is sound… the sound of the waterfall, which is so loud I am sure it will wake me up. Soon the sound passes, however, without waking me up. I look over to be sure MoSh is still there. Blaine charges his battery through blinding lightning from the eyes of the dog statues. After a brief pause the train becomes opaque again and then we start moving. And the riddling continues. Roland says he is running out of riddles. Everyone seems surprised and a bit dismayed at that. Roland asks if Jake will be ready with his riddles, Jake says yes. He asks MoSh and me if we have any riddles from our world. MoSh says he knows a few. Eddie looks zoned completely. Roland says to leave Eddie alone. More riddles from Roland. More instant answers from Blaine. Blaine says there is just 25 minutes left, Roland tells Jake to tell his riddles. Jake tells some riddles from the back of his book. Blaine answers instantly to all of them. Blaine asks if anyone else has a riddle, he even asks Oy. Eddie finally says he has a few, just to kill the time. He asks what has four wheels and flies. Blaine is clearly annoyed, says this one has already been asked and was dumb the first time. He is calling Eddie a fool and an idiot when MoSh asks what you get when you breed a shitzu and a pitt bull. Blaine pauses, says the riddle is dumb… then finally says the answer is a bullshit. Eddie asks when a door is not a door. Blaine pauses, makes a clicking noise, and says when it is ajar then starts insulting Eddie again. MoSh asks a riddle. A big moron and a little moron are on a bridge, the big moron falls off, why doesn't the little moron fall off? Blaine gets pissed again, says the riddle isn't worthy of the contest and he will not answer. Roland says that means Blaine loses. Answer or Blaine loses. Blaine is whining now. Would you like a little cheese with your whine? After another pause and a louder click, finally Blaine says because the little moron was a little more on. He says he feels soiled. Eddie makes a hand gesture which he says is the world's smallest violin playing "My Heart Pumps Purple Piss For You." Next riddle. Why do cops wear belts? The lights are flickering, the walls look semi-transparent. With each riddle this effect seems to get worse. The smaller voice says to stop, it's killing Blaine… Eddie says we'll all stop if Blain stops the mono, to which he refuses. What does an evil chicken lay? Deviled eggs. The answer was very slow to come. Strange noises are coming from the walls. Why did the dead baby cross the road? Blaine is not answering, he says there is no time limit. Roland says he has to answer before we crash. Blaine starts spouting nonsense. Because it was stapled to the chicken. Things are exploding, and it feels like the train is no longer being propelled forward. Roland says everyone needs to gather in the back of the compartment, we are still going to crash. Everyone is gathering at the far end of the compartment. I notice I don't see MoSh… but I really don't have a chance to think much about it before I wake.
In my dream, my boyfriend & I were staying in a hotel room, & my boyfriend's ex-girl friend for some reason had to stay with us?! (thank god this is only a dream Lol) He strangely said she had to sleep in the bed with him, & that I would be sleeping on the couch?! He said nothing would happen between the two of them, if she stayed in the bed with him. I suggested to him that I did not like that plan & shouted angrily at him 3 times before he even responded. Needless to say, he accepted my demands without much of an argument.
Auditory hallucinations draw me into this WILD. I hear voices to my right. It sounds like my old roommate Hugh. There's another unfamiliar voice. I guess that Hugh is giving this other man a job interview, something about accounting. Then I hear voices to my left. I conjure the feeling that I am in my bedroom in the Daisetta house. The voices outside are talking about... Led Zepplin? I dunno. I focus on the voices and they draw me into the dream. Bam! I'm outside in a bright and vivid summer day. I'm in a suburban backyard. The grass is a brilliant shade of green beneath my feet. The house is somewhat like Daisetta. Around the yard are trees and power lines. There are three people around me. I intuit they were the voices outside. They are two boys and a girl. They look high school age and are dressed in gym clothes with blue shirts and white cotton shorts. I look down and see I am wearing the same thing. They are looking at me like I'm their teacher. But I'm not really interested in them. I had a plan in mind but this environment doesn't suit it. So I decide to just have some fun. I look up. Time to fly. I now become aware of a few flying objects. They look like flying cars. I jump and zoom up to the nearest one. It seems to be an unmanned drone, about the size of large trash can. It has a Star Wars Tatooine look to it; futuristic but at the same time rusted and worn. I grab it and spin and throw it up toward another drone and the two crash and fall. Ha! Then I am distracted by an unpleasant feeling in my throat, like a dry heave. I snap back to my waking body. At least I think this portion was waking, but I might have been still dreaming. I feel the urge to cough. I swallow and move my neck slightly and I feel okay. I DEILD back into the dream. I fly up higher and look down to get a sense of the landscape. I'm hovering over a wide dry riverbed that is overgrown with moss and small bushes. On either side of the riverbed there's suburban homes. This reminds me of the creek behind the Redmond house. Down in the riverbed I see a large creature. About the size of a walrus but more like a beached whale in appearance. It is very blubberly. I zoom down and try to lift it. It is heavy but I manage to get it over my head. I throw it up into the air and hovers for a bit, then slowly and gently falls back to the ground. I then take a closer look, trying to figure out what exactly this creature is. I snap back to my waking body again. I'm either still dreaming or in some deep hypnopompic state. I hear voices to my right, as I had in the earlier hypnogogia. It's Hugh again. I intuit that he is talking on the phone to his boss about the job interview candidate. He says, "He had the three wisdoms but didn't know his mathematical formulas. That's just memorization though. He's a bright candidate." I'm listening to this while remaining still, hoping to DEILD again. He ends the phone call and I hear footsteps toward my bedroom room, which is to the right, like my current apartment. I hear the door open and Hugh says "Are you there?" I feel the weight on my bed shift and a foot near my head. I think, maybe Hugh has something urgent so I should wake up. I snap out of hypnopompia and realize I don't live with a roommate anymore. D'oh.
3 lucids over the past three days...I probably should hit the journal more. 1. Old battle buddy of mine needs help with something. I think a ride. She also says she's lucid. 2. NREM...it was pretty sexual, but nothing visually going on. I transition into an arcade, and I'm talking to this girl I feel that I met in a previous dream (unrecorded probably within the past few days) We leave the place, and there's a casino area as well. We're walking talking, flirting, and kissing. She got a phone call and said "I'll go, but I have to take him with me. Otherwise, I don't want to. She got off the phone, and I asked her for her full name, and she said "Emmika Rodriguez". I said "Errrmika?", while rolling my tongue. She quickly corrected me and told me that one of her friends wanted to meet up another casino. I told her that it was sweet of her to stick around, but I had a feeling that the dream was going to end. I told her I hopped to see her again.
Some day residue from ordering a package during the day and also the ever-present media barrage about terrorism. I'm walking through a dry, hilly region that makes me think of Afghanistan. But apparently I am in Kentucky. I am being led by a Persian-looking man with a thick accent. We are walking along a trail, dressed as guerrilla fighters with assault rifles and well-supplied backpacks. It's daytime and it's mostly clear with a few patches of clouds. My guide points up at the sky. There's a plane in the distance. He's speaking some kind of rhetoric that glorifies his cause. Something like: "While the rich and wealthy look down on us from their planes, we, the night warriors, fight on the ground. They use their planes to transport goods and they think they are secure. They think they have sophisticated logistics. But we know all about their systems. We infiltrate their corporations and subvert their delivery systems. They think all the worldly goods belong to them, but really they belong to us." Somehow I know that the plane is a UPS freight plane and we are near their main processing hub in Kentucky. We watch as the plane flies low over a clearing and starts dropping crates to the ground without landing, cargo-cult-style. As each crate lands, workers scramble to it and begin to break it down and process the packages. I think this system must be very well coordinated so that no one gets crushed from a falling crate. I also wonder if they can do this for fragile packages. Maybe they have a separate system for that. We double back on the trail and move away from the UPS facility. My guide continues on with his rhetoric: "They think that we will wither and starve out here in the badlands. But we have enough food for many days..." False awakening. I'm still in the same dream. Apparently we made camp for the night and I'm just now waking up. My guide nudges me with his boot to wake me up. I am reluctant. He says: "We call ourselves the night warriors but we never sleep. We fight day and night." I joke: "If I'm going to be a night warrior, I'm going to need the mornings off."
