Hey DV. Had two lucids last nice, but sorry, they were too vivid. My recall is a little shot.
I was with my friend Kharl and we were at his house. Outside there was a blueish twilight color. We were in his house and eventually went to an amphitheater to hang out. We saw my strange tweaker friend Basil there and if I remember right we had to run for some reason. We were running up in the mountains and it was day time at this point. It was just grass and a few roads and humongous hills, and it was pretty bright out. I remember jumping from about 100 feat into a large body of water and floating to where I needed to be, even though I didn't know it would lead me there. The dream had an interesting vibe to it that I can't quite pinpoint, very melancholy. Depressing and happy, cold but comforting. It was nice.
1 It was some kind of holiday and I was at Auntie Nanie's house. Stasia and I were at the doorway saying bye to Nana and Nanie while they went to go pick up some relatives. Nana took a huge bunch of grapes from the bowl beside the door as she left. When they were gone, Stasia got all excited about showing me things around the house. Behind the shelf beside the door, hidden under some leaves of a plant was a big bowl of pureed red bell pepper. Stasia said Nanie loved it so much she kept it hidden. There were also giant bell peppers beneath the shelves, red, orange and yellow ones. Stasia was cutting them open looking for something, and every slice she made I'd pull open a little bit to peer inside. Soon the halves of all the peppers began falling to the sides and she said, "What did you do?!" Closing them shut didn't work so we rotated them on their sides. As were were hurrying to get the place back in order before Auntie came back, someone came to the door. Stasia answered it while I was kneeling below one of the coffee tables rearranging a carpet. I turned around and saw it was two nicely-dressed young men with a little greyhound puppy. I quickly finished what I was doing and ran over to see her (the dog). I realized the men were salesmen and they were going door to door trying to sell this cheap-looking jewelry. One of them said something about living comfortably around this neighborhood with his husband, gesturing to the other who stood a few paces behind. As he said this he took my hand and wrapped a thin gold chain around a wart on my finger, pointing at it and describing the different styles of jewelry they had. I got uncomfortable and pulled my hand away. I felt like the cute dog and the mentioning of the fact they were gay were only ploys to try to convince us they were liberal, well-intentioned people.
I dreamed that my two brothers, my father, myself (at a younger age then I am now) and a few other men I do not recognize were by the sea side somewhere warm. There were no roads but narrow chanels for small boats and canoes to navigate. My dad tells me and one of my brothers that he and the other men are going a head in another boat and leave me and R in the first boat. R makes me sit in the back ignores my complains that the back of the boat is sinking. I was arguing with him to let me sit up front but he ignored me and soon i'm up to my waist in water. My father and my other brother came along in another boat and got into ours. All the older and heavier men were sitting at the front of the boat, yet is was only sinking and below water at the back where I was sitting. After complaining and whining I finally convinced my father to let me switch places with them and they all went into the back and I went into the font. The back of the boat suddenly became boyant and the front of the boat sank and I could not lift it above the waterline to help steer. I remember feeling angry and frustrated and sick of it all, like I expected this to happen all the time and I was tired of it. Eventually I found a small boat of my own and got out of my father's and brother's boat and tried to make my way through the maze of channels on my own. My both didn't sink this time, but I had no control and would often get pushed backwards by incoming waves or the tide. Even though I couldn't really go anywhere, I was happier in my own boat for some reason. I remember at the end of the dream missing my mom and wondering where she was, and being upset that I could not get to her because I had no control over my own little boat.

Dreamt that there were these hackers in the dream that could change a dream scenario entirely. I was playing diablo 2 type game and kind of knew I was dreaming but not fully. A half lucid. It started out with me in a normal diablo type game. I was going to do a secret cow level. I knew there were hackers in the game and at the right time they told me to prepare for change. The scenario changed and I kinda knew it was a dream. I was sucked into a Mario type 2d environment. I decided to study this weird world and write it all down in detail later. The world was a fast paced moving screen. It was also a mix of sonic the hedgehog. I was be jumping off trampolines and trying not to fall into spikes. I never got low enough on coins to die. After that scenario It went back to a normal world where I was playing d2 collecting items. I told the hackers to do it again because I thought it would make me stronger somehow. It happened again but it was a mix of me at Safeway and un the game. Safeway was a little carnival and the slot machines would take me further into the game. There were others there trying to win prizes. I got into a mini argument with one guy because he won a prize that I wanted. There was one weird girl in the meat section looking at me. It weirded me out a bit. I was preparing to leave Safeway. I talked to a few employees about random things before waking into a false awakening. In this fa I wrote down extreme details of the dream. The dream ended up being over 10 pages long and described all the items I found and every monster I fought.l
Stayed up much later than I normally did playing video games resulting in me being extremely tired, told myself lets try remember dream content and have a dream about doing my wife or something. Dream 1 (didnt have a chance to write down details) I remember this dream had me measuring some liquids for some reason. I think it may have involved someone from my work. Dream 2: It was going to be my first day attending a college, it was a very big multi level campus and I was going to my first few classes and kept getting lost. I darted into one classroom and the teacher was my HR lady from my work where I work right now. I asked her for directions to the next class and she wasnt really sure either but gave me some directions. There was a piece of paper I was supposed to fill out at each class and she looked at it and said your going to do this at the end of the day????? I remember in the dream I thought whatever and left and followed her directions. I remember a map of the campus looked like a tropical island and the path to get around the campus was the most indirect route possible. On the way to that class I remember seeing my brothers roomate go up a flight of stairs, I tried to follow him but I lost him, I went back down and went up another flight of stairs and it was like a big open food court area and drinking bars all around. At a picnic table nearby was a bunch of people from my high school, the "cool kids". This is right where the dream almost ends so it gets little fuzzy but I think they called out to my wife and said you married him??? and then they were laughing so I flipped them off (i dont remember my hand or gesture looking out of place) and then my wife said come on lets just go and then I woke up.
Dream; Semi-Lucid; Lucid; Memorable; 1-4 My Recollection; 3; Shampoo in eyes dense packs of amber stars backyard. Lucid trying few things, went flying down the street at night. Kept having FA's.

I had an austrailian accent the other night. I was slightly angry with this lady and I was raising my voice; that's when I noticed I was speaking with an accent. I thought, hey, wait a minute... I'm american.... Cool! And it really was cool, I had convinced myself in the dream that I was austrailian. Unfortunately, I didn't become lucid. Last night, however, I should've been lucid. I have been telling myself before sleep that if I see Bill Hicks, I will become lucid. I did see him, he was doing some signing thing... It was strange now that I think about it, because he wasn't acting like you would normally expect. It's like he knew where he was... kind of creepy, to be honest. I remembered he looked at me once and he saw my tattoo. He didn't say anything, but he payed particular attention to me. I should've known it was a dream. I just seem to keep telling my subconscious, no, don't wanna be lucid. And oh yes... Tomorrow I will have been with DV for a year. =D Time flies, when you're having fun, right?
Well, due to life getting extremely busy I had to take off a week of keeping up with my DJ, and last night being the first night of the weekend, I got to try again to lucid dream...and boy did I! 1) & 2) Just fragments of the first couple dreams of the night. Can't remember a lot of what I did, but I do recall quite clearly finding a mirror, looking at myself in it, and telling myself that I was dreaming until it sank in that I really was. I went lucid this way in both dreams and then went to do stuff, but sadly lost lucidity again fairly quickly. 3) I was keeping a DJ (yes, in the dream) of the previous two dreams in the night. Suddenly I realized I was still dreaming though, and so I happily marked a third lucid dream for one night...just before waking up. 4) By this point I'd finally gotten enough sleep for dreams to be fairly clear, and so I was wandering through some futuristic facility, unaware that I was asleep, when out of the corner of my eye I caught my reflection in a broken sheet of metal that was dangling from the wall. As I approached it, I began to marvel at how realistic the reflection was...which clued me in that I was dreaming and subconsciously knew it. I repeated the process of looking at myself in the mirror and telling myself quite firmly that I was dreaming until I really did gain lucidity...and this time held onto it! When I looked away from the mirror I was suddenly Adam Jensen, which I found cool and decided to stick with. I was on the basement level of the facility, and I decided there would be a villain at the top level, and I had to get there to stop him from some evil plot. And of course in Deus Ex style, that also meant I had to do a lot of sneaking around to get there. Well, I didn't do the best job at being subtle so security guards caught onto my presence very quickly, but a single punch to the face took each and every one of them out so easily it was almost disappointing. So I let two guys wake back up from the knockout punch and start chasing me, this time with the fun being in finding a way to hide from them. I began to half-fly-half-freerun all over the place until I rounded a corner, expecting to find a door to a crazy room on the other side. I did. Once inside, I was in a room that had its geometry duplicated on the ceiling, making it vertically symmetrical. I flew upside down and stood on the ceiling as the two guys ran inside on the floor, which was upside down to me, now. They couldn't figure out how the heck I was doing what I was, and it confused them enough for me to fly up some upside-down flights of stairs until I reached a pillar jutting sideways out of the wall. I stood by the pillar now, at yet another orientation different from the floor. The DC's were totally confused by this point, and so when they came after me, I simply kept myself on the opposite side of the pillar from them, and eventually they gave up looking for me. Just when they were about to leave though, one of them saw me, so I took them both out and kept going towards the top. Sadly I lost lucidity and woke up before I could get there, but it was still a pretty epic dream. Here's a basic illustration of the crazy geometry I built into that room on the fly. Just goes to show the creativity the sleeping mind can have! I'd never think of this while awake

Dream 1: I was traveling somewhere with Jeff and Tito. We had stopped at a large motel. We had parked around on the back side. We had to walk up a little hill to get to the building. As we walked my feet got caught in all the burrs in the weeds on the hill. It was like velcro. I could barely walk. But I somehow managed to yank my feet up and make it to the motel. I also felt this awful dark feeling. I felt something was wrong and that something bad would happen. I think we talked to someone in the motel (this part is fuzzy). We had these little toy things that could transform when you took them to this special place. This motel had one of this places. We got two of the toys transformed, but then I said that I felt we needed to leave. The guys also felt this. So we walked back down the hill where our feet kept getting stuck. As we were almost to the car I could see that this creepy guy was following us. We ran to the car, but the creepy guy was able to jump inside the car. Jeff took off driving down the street. The door on the creepy guys side wasn't shut. I reached around and kicked at him with my feet. I told Tito to also kick at him since he was next time him. We finally kicked him out of the car. I look back and saw his body flying arcross the road and hitting a light pole. I wondered if he had survived. I asked the guys if they thought we needed to call the police and tell them what happened. I was worried that we would be reported by the bystanders who didn't know the situation. And that's all I remember. Dream 2: I was at this resort at the base of this mountain. I knew that there were some amazing hikes that started right behind the resort. I wasn't prepared for a big hike, but I wanted to hike just a little of the trail and then head back. I followed this girl. She had a little trouble getting up this really steep part. I felt a little proud that I got up it with no problem. I followed her for about a half mile or so. She stopped to change a shirt. I stopped and talked to her. I asked what her plans were. She told me that she would hike til dark, then make camp. I looked at saw that her backpack was tiny. There was no way she had a tent or sleeping bag or any camping gear of any kind I that pack. I told her that it woud be getting really cold, but she didn't seem to be worried. I didn't know if I should try to talk her out of it or not. I didn't want her to freeze to death. But she seemed so confident that I let her go on while I turned aruond and went back.
I was in my room with my cousin. I was chewing gum, and it got on my iPad, which was in it's case, thankfully. I wasn't really worried about it breaking. I went to the bathroom to get it off, then returned to my room.
I go to my car and find out I'm missing my freaking weapon. In this dream, I have two cars. My current one, and this orange brand new Nissan Z. When I walk outside, the trunk is up and it's gone. I searched all over for it. My brother is asking me what does it look like, and I tell him what it looks like, and specifically say green. http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/image.../aicw-2005.jpg The rifle looked exactly like that. I have no idea why I had Australian weaponry with me, but I knew it was worth at least 1 or 2k. He's trying to chill me out, and I just can't do it. I have in my mind that the Russians have taken it. In my dream there was a DMZ border just south of my house, and it was occupied by Russians. Something was telling me that they stole it, so I was trying to figure out how I could talk to him about getting back. I was thinking about drawing the picture of it and waving it, and saying comrade. I was still thinking about what was the exact rules of the boarder, and did they have a shoot on sight rule, or was there just a certain area people couldn't go to. My brother interrupts my thoughts, and he's like "i'll go out and get a loan and pay for it, in the meantime let's drink some cranberry vodka and it'll okay. I said "not until I find this freaking weapon". "I'm not going to be drinking any vodka". "If I don't find it, the only thing I'm going to do is die". Just then SP kicked in, and it felt like two warm hands wrapping around my throat. I quickly broke out of it, and assumed it was from the feeling of the covers wrapped close to my neck.
Had 4 dreams or so. 2 I remember, one I vaguely remember, one I barely remember. Oh well, gonna write them. Note: All of these were after a failed WBTB. 1st In this dream, I was in a car with my family. We were riding to somewhere, I dunno where, I didn't try too look at through the window. I was in the back seat. I looked at the window to see a cocoon. It was yellow, and really nasty. Then, something started going out of it. Since I was scared, I went to the front seat, so it isn't near me, just to find another cocoon was on the window of the front seat. It was the same color and everything. Then, a bee, a hornet or a wasp. Probably a wasp. I was scared... "Dad, kill that thing!" My dad was driving. He commented sometyhing about how he always has to do these things. He hit the wasp going out of the cocoon. All the sticky yellow liquid splashed on the window. It was really gross... The wasp was still moving. It was hit, but not dead, yet. My dad hit it with something again, and some more of the gross liquid flew over, and the wasp was still moving... This was the end of the dream... Yep, that was one of the dreams... Now to the second, which has anime-like graphics. In fact, it was probably a slightly mutated Naruto dream. A group of ninjas were walking, and in the dream, I swore I thought how it was from the Hidden Village of the Clouds (See Naruto if you dunno what it is). The group was confronted by another type of ninjas. These had a different outfit from the first, and had purple cristals all through their body. I guess, in the dream, this was a special Kekkei Genkai (Again, watch Naruto to know what this is). They seemed to be allies. Suddenly, one guy of the first group attacked a purple cristal guy. Everything next in the dream concentrated on the two of them. The first guy made energy attacks from his palms. He would swing his arm and a giant energy wave would get out. The cristal guy just dodged his attacks. Then they talked about something. It seemed as the first person was trying to tell him what should he do, but the other just didn't listen, so he fought him as a way to change his mind. The End... Note: I don't know if this Naruto dream was a fragment or not, but I definitely only remember this part clearly. I also remember that somewhere in the dream, with two swords, I slashed enemies, but I dunno if it is a part of the ninja dream. And, a small fragment I can't say I really remember. I was on dreamviews, or some other LD-related site. There, I read about WILD. In reality, there is only WILD and DILD, all others are subtypes of these, but in the dream, I remember reading of WILD as a subtype of another LD-incuding technique along DEILD. Anddd, that's all I can remember. I would rather not tell about the images from the other dreams I had, since I remember them only vaguely. I guess that's all for today.
I'm starting to get the hang of this! Anyways I woke up at 2.30 naturally which isn't normal for me, so I thought since I was awake I'd try to WILD even though all of my previous attempts had failed. I entered sleep paralysis within a few minutes and then promptly fell asleep I found myself in a small corridor made of stone I was in another castle (starting to become a dream sign) I knew I was dreaming and didn't do RC's or anything. I walked through the square wooden door in front of me thinking I had to get outside and start trying things. I looked to the right, two guards were standing there looking at me. I panicked and immediately killed them both forgetting that it was a dream and that I had the time to try things out. "Not to worry" I said "because I am dreaming" I continued in the direction I was going wondering how I could get outside (My connection to the concious side of my brain wasn't very good so I didn't know much of how to go about things) I kept going until I arrived in this huge cave I didn't look around too much because I spotted what I thought to be a giant snake over in the corner. Wanting to have an epic battle like other people have had I went over to it but to my dismay it was only the skin of the huge snake. Then I remembered I killed it in an earlier non lucid dream. I floated upwards and hovered (Not flying!) and started kicking parts of the skin which then fell to the ground in a cloud of dust and for some reason ash. Then the scene changed and I lost lucidity.
