      Lucid #13: Dad's Dream Journal

      My dad has started a dream journal and he's looking for my advice on lucid dreaming. For some reason, he secretly dead drops the journal to me in the back of a car. I have to pick it up late at night to make sure that nobody finds out that he's keeping a dream journal.

      His journal describes a dream that he had falling asleep in a chair. I read through it and conclude that he was very close to a WILD. I'm very happy for him and attempt to place a rah-rah green check mark in the margin of his DJ. To my astonishment, it comes out as a boldfaced "left 2". I wonder what the hell is going on and decide to reality check "just in case". I use the nose pinch RC
      and instantly become lucid.

      My sudden lucidity shocks me into a false awakening in the hotel room I am sharing with Wife. I know that it's a false awakening because I still have the nose pinch clamped down and I'm still breathing freely. I get up out of bed but the sheets are wrapped tightly around me. I flail and struggle to free myself from the sheets and finally fling them across the room.

      The room's incredibly dark and I can barely see anything. I feel on the wall, expecting to find a light switch. I flick it on and rather than illuminating the room it causes a very dim light to come on outside. I feel for another switch and this one seems to turn on a dim bathroom light behind me, but this soon goes out. I'm looking for another switch when the room's air conditioning suddenly roars to life and
      I awaken to the sound of the (very loud) hotel room A/C.

      These dark rooms can be tricky! Next time I may try just walking through doors as quickly as I can. I saw that OpheliaBlue had some success using that to escape darkness. If that doesn't work, perhaps I'll just hurl myself off of an imaginary cliff again and try my luck.

    2. 5 Sep 2012 - Little Details

      by , 09-05-2012 at 05:08 PM (Extra Lives)
      [I'm happy to have remembered a few details from my dreams last night. One step at a time.]

      1. I was on a U-shaped dock in the middle of water. Others were around me, but I don't remember the feelings / happenings.
      2. Friends were coming over to my house. R and G from CasaG were there. I was worried about them seeing the notes I had posted around my room (uplifting messages, like I do in RL), so I hurried around my room to hide them. Also, there was a surprise toilet/bathroom I didn't know about in my room. And there was crap floating around in the toilet. I remember trying to figure out why my room didn't smell because I had no idea how long that mess had been in there. I sprayed air freshener and moved on.
      3. I was trying to get a job, possibly waiting, but I don't think I had the right qualifications. [Haha.] Then something about foreign languages, I was trying to speak with or learn a few words from different people around a dinner table.

    3. Lady Robber

      by , 09-05-2012 at 04:58 PM (* The Sandman's Dream Journal o/***)
      Lady Robber

      I was with my first girlfriend. A young lady had been seen in her house to rob her. I ran through the house to catch her. I looked in a couple rooms and quickly found her.

      I saw her crouched in a corner. I had sympathy for her. I asked why she did it. She said it was because she was fat. I was happy to be able to help her. I explained I am working on the perfect diet.

      I then touched her silky, dark hair, then led her away. R saw me with her, and I felt a bit of a traitor, but as this was a dream, and I can't say that I was in fact a traitor.

      I found myself in a pool with this young woman and a male friend. I accidentally held the woman by her vagina and quickly moved it to her leg.

      I looked over at my male friend. I almost hit him with a friendly punch in the arm at my luck.

    4. Vague dream - Trolleys??

      by , 09-05-2012 at 04:21 PM
      Ok so I was rudely awoken by my dad cuz I had the dentist this morning so I didn't have time to write a full journal but I remember some details.

      Even though I'm sure there were seperate parts to the dream beforehand I unfortunately can't remember them. The part I remember (the final part) involved what felt like a derelict rooftop city. I was once again with my mate Harry and this time my friend charlie was also there. All I seem to remember was that we trapped someone in a shopping trolley ?? haha

    5. Spiders in The Blinds

      by , 09-05-2012 at 04:21 PM (Krista's Dream Journal)
      Dream - Lucid

      I was in the bonus room at my house, and noticed that all the blinds were swarming with spiders. I couldn't believe I had actually ever touched or messed with those blinds. Something about a little girl and the blinds, I think someone was filming her for a movie or something.

      I also remember being in the shower, and seeing the water being stained red with blood, and I was falling in and out of sleep as some guy told me he was worried about me because of how much blood was in the water. I felt very tired and out of it, and didn't really care too much about the blood.


      Did not get much sleep last night, feeling pretty rough this morning. Bleh. -_-
    6. DEILD Chain #2

      by , 09-05-2012 at 03:46 PM (Magic Box)
      I had another DEILD chain when I took a nap this afternoon.

      1. Had a DILD where I spontaneously got lucid. I managed to summon an ice cream for my dream food goal, but instead of a cone, it was a banana I was holding, with strawberry and cookies on top. I changed it to a proper cone, which was awesome because I could see the banana morphing right before my eyes. I woke up while eating the ice cream.

      2. Stayed still and imagined the last scene with the ice cream, and entered the dream again. This time there was an ocean near me, and I considered doing the TOTM but I chickened out (ophie you're right, oceans are kinda creepy esp at nighttime). I decided to do my month goals instead, and I remembered to flip a table. I summoned a large wooden table, and flipped it. It wasn't as heavy as I'd thought it would be. I put it upright and flipped it one more time. Then my mom entered my room and I woke up again.

      3. I DEILDed again, and I was glad my mom left right away and didn't wake me up. I yelled out for my dream guide a few times while walking around touching objects like the trees and rubbing my hands. I woke up again. Because my mom entered the room yet again.

      4. My mom called me, and I focused real hard on reentering the dream and ignoring her (sorry mom). Success. My mom must've left after I didn't respond. I was back in the last dream scene, and there was an man standing in the corner, looking at me. I tried to go near him, but this time my mom woke me up and shook me until I finally got up.

    7. Wed. Sep. 5

      Infiltration with Hank

      Hank Green and I run down the hallway towards the room that is our destination. My hands are clasped together with the index finger and thumb pointing out, pretending I'm holding a gun. We reach a T junction.

      "I'll take right, you go left," says Hank. We split up.

      I see a woman walking down the hallway towards me. I take cover and fire with my "hand-gun." I look away for a moment, and when I look back, she's not there. Just disappeared. I suppose that's what you'd expect an imaginary gun to do. I continue down the hallway until I reach a sort of open area. I can see over the top of some low walls into some rooms where lots of people are working on computers. They seem really focused. I would feel bad about running in there and disrupting them for the sake of this game I'm playing. I hesitate.

      Then I see the people in the room on the left looking over towards the room on the right (my target room) and smiling delightedly. Hank must have reached this side of the room. And they aren't annoyed at all! They must have known about the game, and agreed to it because they thought it would be fun. I look over to see what's happening in the right room. There is colorful, fish-shaped confetti flying in the air. The employees are standing around a spot on the floor, jumping up and down, and clapping. Uh oh. I guess they brought Hank down. I should have been in there to help him.

      Anxiously, I walk into the room. I ask a tall, dark-haired man what happened.

      Later, I'm walking back out of the building, escorted by the building employees. A guy my own age, someone I know, is ranting about a woman who works in this building. She was somehow responsible for ruining our game, and she's also the head of the elementary math education program, even though she hates kids. One of the employees starts looking calculatingly at the ranting guy, and I realize that she must be the woman he's talking about. Uh oh.

      Stealing from Nynaeve

      I "accidentally" run into Nynaeve and engage her in conversation. Meanwhile, I cleverly steal from her an important artifact. She'll be mad at me when she finds out, but hopefully I'll be ready for her.

      I hide the artifact in my locker. I also have a blanket and a cloak of hers, made with cloth of the same pattern. She's managed to take back the cloak, but in order to hide the blanket, I have to rearrange a lot of things in my locker. For instance, I add an extra blanket to my bed and put something else on my desk. A friend comes up to ask me why I changed the color of my blanket.

      Missing a Soul

      I'm late to orchestra, but before I can go, I need to save my game. But when I try, it tells me that I have no soul. I need to use a soul gem on myself. I try to do so, but when I resume the game, it loads a new chapter, sort of thing. There's a menu that explains the new scenario and a video in the corner where the bad guy is threatening to do something. I don't have time to listen to all of it, so I just click through the screen. I'll look back over it later. I also skip the first objective of the scenario, so I start in the middle of training something called an ADHD. I don't know what it is or why it's important, but apparently it's a creature used by the enemy that we can train to work for us. I'm able to rearrange the letters in "ADHD" in various ways before training it, and presumably that's important. But since I skipped everything, I have no idea how.

      Frags:
      • I pick my nose, and out comes almost a complete ring of dried boogers. This happens several times in fairly quick succession.

    8. Stolen luggage

      by , 09-05-2012 at 02:48 PM
      I was getting ready to take a trip. At night I stashed my luggage in an alley because I didn't have anywhere else to put it. The next morning all of the stuff that was in it was gone. The suitcase was zipped back up by the thief.

      I was trying to call a co-worker (MB) to get some extra clothes. I was using his phone which was old and nearly dead. I wasn't getting through with him, finally finding out that he was away. Meanwhile, a middle aged woman was trying to hit on me at the bar. She was eating a strawberry.

      Later, my girlfriend was walking down the street with a co-worker who is also the mayor of his town. They were going to New York or Atlantic City and asking me when they should leave. I said, "NOW." Then me and my girlfriend began holding hands in front of him and you could tell he was disappointing that she was taken but he didn't get angry at me. I remember thinking in the dream that she would think it an honor to date the mayor; who am I compared to him?
    9. Hotel Alarm, Albino Rats Floating, Apartment With No Bed, Jumping Out of Windows (SDE Day 22)

      Hotel Alarm (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      It's very dark at night, and I need to find a place to stay in, and I forget who tells me this, but there's only one hotel available, and it has what I needed to get. I go inside of the hotel, and there's a lady in front, assuming she's the one who gives out cards to go into hotel rooms and all that. She's wearing the preset secretary type of outfit, dark blue dress with a white long sleeve shirt underneath, and she was fairly tall.

      I could barely see her face at all.....she was literally that tall, or maybe my perspective of being able to look up was very limited. I walk around the hotel a bit, and I open a door slowly, and I see that this much be the kitchen, or the dining area of the hotel. The floor was a black and white checkered floor.

      I think I saw a white microwave, those really big ones that huge a lot of energy, but heats things faster than the regular ones. I thought that I would be able to go inside of the kitchen/dining area, but then an alarm triggers.

      It sounded a lot like the alarm I was going to use to wake me up, and it made a strong beep and faded it, but it was still really loud. I look over and found the alarm, it was white, had a small black screen on top, and I saw some green numbers and/or font glowing. I call the lady, and she quickly comes, and I said that the alarm triggered.

      This moment felt weird to me, I felt like it was supposed to be my fault, but the lady didn't mind setting the alarm off at all. She does some weird motion with her hands pressing the buttons that was underneath the covering that moved downwards.

      She comes back to me,
      and that's all I remember.

      Making Albino Rats Float and Die (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID


      So I'm on top of a black metal building, and I believe I'm with a male that's sitting down on the A/C fan. He's wearing a white shirt, dark pants, but I'm not sure if that's him or if this was just me looking at myself, and then shifting back into the perspective of the person sitting down.

      Anyway, I have in my hand an Albino Lab rat, cute little thing, too bad it's going to die. I get a very strong urge to see this thing eradicated. I forget hot it dies exactly, but I do know some kind of crushing was involved. After one rat is gone, I remember another one showing up on my hand, except this time, I'm making it float move my hand. It looks at me, and it's just as cute as the one before.

      I think some electricity surges out to my hand, and I probably killed the little guy right there, but I don't recall actual experiences of seeing it die.

      Apartment with No Bed (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I remember going up an elevator that was white, and I'm following some girl to the right of me. She looks familiar, but I'm not paying too much on how she looks like. The elevator finally reaches the destination, we both get out and turn to the right.

      She mentions that we're close to the room now, and I believe the levels in this floor was in the 400s. I look to my right, counting the rooms we're passing, and after 2-3 doors, she opens the door I'm supposed to go in, though I don't know why I need to go in. I believe she's wearing a white sweater that's faded a bit.

      I look down on the floor, and to my left, I see a gray carpet layer on top of the dark brown and shiny wood flooring. To the front of me was a window, it was closed, but it was the main thing that enticed me in this dream. It was so nice outside, calm, a few gray skies, and I would presume that it was fairly windy instead of it being hot as hell here in waking life.

      The girl disappears, probably went to the bathroom, but then again, everything was so enclosed, it's like this place would be perfect for those who want to have an efficient lifestyle with minimal distance to get to where they needed to go. There was a sink to the left of me as soon as you entered the room, I think, and the toilet was just a little bit further.

      I'm wondering where the hell is the bed in this place, and I assumed that the gray carpet layer was a spot where a previous bed was on top of before.

      I can't remember much after that.

      Jumping out of Windows (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      This dream was a sudden rush, you either get out as quickly as possible, or die. I don't know what the hell is happening in this dream, but a random dream character in some kind of dark outfit tells me to come quickly and get near the window. I wonder why, but the moment I hear some noises in front of me, I could sense that a lot of entities would be coming it, so I take immediately catapult through the window.

      I believe this dream resets itself a few more times,
      that's all I remember.

    10. DV Members at School

      by , 09-05-2012 at 02:30 PM (Fennecgirl's Collection of Dreams)
      I had a dream that school had already started (I don't start until Monday). I go to an online school, and the site looked the same is it does IWL, though a few of the courses had weird names (gummy, for example). I had a message from OpheliaBlue (one of my teachers, apparently) saying that these three years of high school would be hard, especially now that paigeyemps wasn't helping me with Spanish anymore.

    12. Demons and Aliens

      by , 09-05-2012 at 12:15 PM
      Guess all I needed for better recall was a good night's sleep.

      Demons and Aliens
      Recall: 8/10
      Sleep: Good
      Sleep Position: Left Side (Right Brain)
      My brother and I pull up in the small french town of Bourgette where we used to live when we were very young. We get out of the car and some passing women comment that they went to school with us in kindergarten. I'm amazed they remember us.

      We go over to the bar and start talking with a group of younger people (all about 18), discussing the town. I say it's a nice place, nice and quiet. We start hanging with them and my brother goes off with some of them. I go to look for him upstairs where one of the kids lives. In his room I see a dresser that must have belonged to me, since the top of it is plastered with drawing I made. But the longer I look at them, the more they are not my pictures.

      I go up a very narrow set of stairs expecting to find my brother, but just find a computer with something satanic on the screen. I go back outside and it's now a busy Canada day celebration. And that's when the UFOs show up.

      The UFOs are colorful lights in the sky, and the more I watch them, the more of them they are, and the more complex their aerial displays are. And then they start to attack. I see my parents and tell them I can't find my brother. then go back inside to look for him again.

      Inside the place is under attack by Japanese demons with long needle like teeth. One of the girls we were sitting with is now one of these demons, but she doesn't quite realize it yet. There are swords scattered around, and as the demon girl comes at me, I grab a heavy sword with a long straight edge and cut her in two from head to groin. The chopping power of this sword feels good in my hands, and I carve up lots of demons with it.


      Frenchies caught me attention last night as the elected a seperatist government, which is what sparked my dream of that french town. The ensuing destruction probably reflects wishful thinking on my part.

      [I'm getting restarted with this dreaming thing. I've been out of practice so long that I rarely remember my dreams. And my dreams have always brought a special meaning to my life and sleepy times. I don't want to miss out on any of my life, especially the most free-thinking, creative 1/3 of my day!]

      3 Sep 2012

      Set in a huge cathedral, my brother J was there, and it was really religious in theme. Christopher Hitchens was giving a speech in the hall, and I was reading a Reader's Digest about religion. At one point, J wanted a book and we tried to sneak it out, but the cathedral had those library theft-detection devices, so we (J?) threw the book out of a large window and it landed in a pond.

      4 Sep 2012

      I was in a big square shower room where soap and water was constantly being sprayed onto me from the walls. (The house was owned by D**** M*****, who I recently heard from after years of no-comm. She made a short appearance.) I also remember that I was running or hiding from someone/something. It wasn't anything malicious, just something I didn't want to deal with maybe.

      I was in at party type setting. There were a lot of people surrounding the table I was sitting at. I instantly knew that I was dreaming. I decided to perform a magic show for all the people at my table. I would make a coin disappear and reappear in someone pocket. Everyone around me was amazed. In the middle of all of this a storm showed up. I remember feeling the energy of the thunder and wetness of the rain. Many times I thought this dream is so real I can believe this.

    15. Just to start (9/3-4/2012)

      by , 09-05-2012 at 05:46 AM
      This is nothing special, interesting or even lucid but I feel that I need to post something just to get my self started so here I go.

      This was a dream I had before I woke up this morning where I was competing in a tournament called Ludum Dare. I was working in a group with my two friends and I remember that I kept getting interrupted so I eventually ended up checking in on occasion to make sure everything was going smoothly and I remember thinking wow that virtual world (Some 3D game involving a spaceship and images from a Java tutorial book I was reading a while back lol) is amazing.

      I vaguely remember the rest but there was something about not forgetting (lol look how well that worked out) and a secret elevator in my friends grandparents house leading to my grandparents house?

      Anyways hopefully I can start getting some real lucid dreams in here.
