    1. A 2-Hour Nap: Flaming Bicycle / Garage Trailer (fragments)

      (Note: When I came home from work today, I was quite tired. I farted around on the 'net for a while, then decided to take a nap that lasted about 2 hours. I had a few other dreams, but these are the two that I can recall anything from. When I woke up, I spent more time being amazed that I just had so many dreams during a nap then I did recalling them. )

      Fragment #1:
      I am riding a bicycle around the yard at my parent's old house. Suddenly, the bike catches on fire. I push it over to the corner where the garden hose should be, but there is no hose. I drop the bike and run into the basement to get a hose. When I come back, my brother had used a bucket to put out the fire. I connected the hose and sprayed the bike a bit more to stop the smoke.

      Fragment #2:
      I try to back a trailer into a garage with my truck, but the front of the trailer is too high to fit under the door. I disconnect the trailer from the truck and my brother helps me push it my hand. Once we get the trailer inside the garage, he puts some chocks under the tires and I set the coupler on a large wood block. Behind the trailer, there are a couple of old lawn mowers and a garden tractor. Off to the side, there are a couple of engines laying on the floor. I walk out of the garage and when I turn around, I wake up.
    2. Electronic Music Festival (fragment)

      I am setting up my sound system for an outdoor electronic music festival. After I finish connecting everything, I walk around and explore the grounds. I walk toward the main vending area to find Tara and a couple of others hanging out under one of the vendor's canopies. I don't recognize the others by name, but they look a bit familiar. They are talking about how they dislike the first DJ that's supposed to play. Tara says, “Hey! I know you!” and gives me a hi-five, then I walk toward another group of people to see who's there. As I'm walking, I trip over something and fall, waking me up.

    3. What about pointed sticks?

      by , 09-23-2011 at 01:20 AM (Lyrics to Lunacy)
      I had a lucid last night, it might have ranked among my top ten best lucids. Enjoy. :3

      I was in the 8th grade hall of my school, having a conversation with a friend about, ironically, lucid dreaming. The dismissal bell had rung; everybody, in colorful clothes, was heading downstairs via the double staircase and to the door beside of it. My friend departed, and I didn't pay attention to where he was going, but by the looks of it, he was going to fall down the stairs.

      I was shortly outside, walking on the path to the bus loop that went along the mostly glass side of the school. Somewhere along the way I met another friend, distinguishable from his ethnicity and his green coat. Also, along the way, I became
      lucid. I continued walking, to prevent myself from getting too excited.

      I marveled at how real everything was, everything was so accurate. I took this path every day for two years, and I'm still walking it this year, but I was still very impressed. Even the ditch that had been recently filled in, only this week, was accurate. The only flaws were a giant dollar weed growing next to the filled in ditch, and the lack of chalk paintings beneath my feat.



      I was now on the asphalt road to the bus loop. Garbage trucks and other kinds of large trucks parked here. The light dimmed, mist seeped in around the sides of of the building and the surrounding forest. I just went along with it. My initial lucidity is usually followed by some sort of event that seemed to try to knock me back into non lucidity, usually I give in. Not this time.

      "He's coming," I heard somebody whisper. Sound's just about right, it always seems to be a DC trying to confront me.

      The basket ball court, a way's away, expanded to the size of a football field, and I was on top of it. The mist turned into a dark gray fog. I saw a dash at the fog's edge, chasing somebody.

      It was really fast, like a ninja. According the the blur, the attacker was white with blonde hair, and he throws his arms back and leans forward at he runs.

      I run around aimlessly, hoping for a sigh of the dream character. While running, I stuck a hand out and barely caught a pen, being thrown like a knife, from hitting another DC on the field. I smirked and said something incoherent, as it was hard to focus. I hadn't come derailed at all from the dream; concentration was just a little rough. I ran in pursuit of the attacker.

      At some point, I stumbled, and as I caught my self from the fall, a rather late idea emerged;

      I should stabilize the dream!


      (Author's note: If you're one of those people who like music while reading about fights, I'd recommend this.)

      "Anchor dream," I managed to blurt out. The dream immediately stabilized by at least five times. It had already been realistic; but it was like I was playing a video game, now I was actually there. I noticed after stabilized that my vision was about to black out before. I suppose I caught my fall more ways than one.

      A swift force dropped me to the ground and rolled me over, and the attacker was standing on top of me, a short, pointed stick pulled back in his left hand, and a dragon shaped kazoo held less then a foot from my face in his right.

      Perfect.

      I moved the kazoo aside with a forearm, feeling it's jagged wooden texture, the feelings of the spikes on the dragon kazoo were that of the dull edge of a wooden cube.

      The attacker, no older that thirteen, thrust his stick forward, towards my chest. As I intercepted, I noticed from the feeling of his momentum that he was only applying brute force and no technique other than a few fancy stances. Many principles of waking life combat are not present in lucid dreaming, needless to say. But I could name a few.

      The dream character I was fighting was fast, but within limit. I kept his arms away from his center so he lacked protection and so he would take longer to recover. I disarmed him from his stick by drawing a circle with his wrist, and I made it burst into flames by setting my hand on fire. I reached out towards him with my flaming hand and he scampered back ten feet, and I stood up.

      The dream transitioned to a bedroom, lit by a window. The ceiling was slanted, it was part of the roof. The boy who attacked me was sitting in a corner for reason, and I made him vanish on a whim. I contemplated on flying through the window, wondering if I would fit. The corners of my vision began fading quickly. My single attempt to re-stabilize the dream failed, and I blacked out into the insides of my eyelids, which I opened. I did a reality check using the digital clock on my dresser. I was
      awake.

      But then I fell asleep again, and I can recall some dream about a squad of seven jet fighters that ended sadly with a nuke and them all being incinerated.

      So that was cool.

      9/18/11

      Lucid Non-lucid

      I was in a project making robotics parts for a rich guy. at the end he wants to kill us off to keep us quiet. He have to walk barefoot across a floor with poison on it, and if we touch it we die. We are being watched by his daughter and her body guards. I am able to knock her out and pretend to give her medical attention so the guards ignore me. I become lucid and notice she is hot, so i start taking off her clothes, and say some poison got on them to advert suspicion. After she wakes up we start having sex, and something strange happened (not writing it down) and i woke up.

      Lucid Non-lucid

      I am in a non-lucid dream for a while, and end up pretty much on top of a girl. I become lucid, and get ready to have sex, but first I stop and remember to stabalize. I do not think I stabalized correctly, and when I began to go to work the dream ended.

    7. The dreamer's two enemies, low lighting and low lucidity.

      by , 09-23-2011 at 12:03 AM (Doodles From My Dream Journal)
      I was in a car and was aware that it was a dream. I finally realize that I could do whatever I wanted in this dream once the realization kicks in, I notice it's night out and don't bother to use passive control so I try to make it day by will, the dream fades.

    9. 09/06/2011 - "Almost Reached the Academy Again...Almost" (Dream Chain)

      by , 09-22-2011 at 09:17 PM (Oneironaut Zero: Dreamwalker Chronicles)
      09/06/2011
      Dream 1-A
      "Almost Reached the Academy Again...Almost"


      I was at some fancy dinner party, in a large, extremely luxurious hotel or something. The first thing I actually remember is walking through a large lobby area, and realizing that I was dreaming. I was walking through this dimly lit room, behind 2 or 3 guys. I believe they were friends of mine, but I can't really remember. However, I do recall expressing to them that I was dreaming, and requesting for them to remind me later, if I forget. (I figured it was worth a shot.) That was the last time I saw them in the dream, though, I believe.

      Walking up a flight of stairs, I took notice of all of the DC's milling about. Everyone was dressed up nicely, but I can't remember what I was wearing, myself. I passed by this one, Latin-looking girl in a killer gray dress, and we exchanged a quick glance. Moving on, I passed a table full of women who were having a conversation with each other, and I reached out to the nearest one, playfully grabbing her ass. She looked back as I walked on, and gave me a smile. When I turned away from her, to look where I was going, there was another beautiful girl standing in the doorway of a dark room, in front of me. She was petite and blonde, and also dressed very nicely. I'd remembered my intention to search for the Dream World Academy, and I wasn't really trying to get caught up in dream sex, so I simply asked the girl if she would show me to the nearest portal that could take me to the Academy. She agreed, and brought me into the darkened hotel room. I followed her into the bathroom, and she pulled back the shower curtain, motioning for me to step inside. A little confused, I stepped into the shower, expecting to be somehow teleported to the Academy. Instead, though, the girl stepped in behind me. Before I knew it, we were making out in the shower with the water off, and our clothes still on.



      Dream 1-B (Dream Chain / False Awakening)
      I 'woke up' in a dark room. For a moment, I though I was back at home but, after looking around a bit, I noticed that the room was unfamiliar to me. I could see what looked like an old dresser and TV in the darkness, and a curtain-less window sat nearby. Trying to remember how I might have gotten into this room, I recalled that I had been dreaming, and just woke up here. I recognized this to be a false awakening, got up and walked to the window. It was night out, and I seemed to still be in the hotel, judging by the look of things, outside. The thought came back to me, that I had wanted to find the Academy, so I decided to do some searching on my own. Placing my palms to the glass, I pushed forward and phased through it, stepping out onto the high ledge. From there, I hovered up to the roof, which was high enough that I could just about see above all the other buildings in the area. I looked out over the horizon, to see if anything stood out as an obvious sign that there was an Academy nearby, but didn't really see anything note-worthy.

      Then, I looked down to the ground, far below. I could see a small puddle/pond of water, positioned just beneath me, and remembered that these were told (in a previous dream) to be portals. Leaning forward from the rooftop, I dropped off of the ledge, and fell toward the tiny pond. During the fall, I turned myself around so that I was falling backward. Anticipating on hitting the water, I was surprised when I actually fell into what seemed more like a rabbit hole than a water hole. I was still in free-fall; dropping like a stone into the narrow tunnel, to the point where I could feel my stomach begin to turn.

      A little uneasy with the unexpectedness of falling backward into this empty hole, I turned back around to fall chest-first. Suddenly, I found that I wasn't falling through a dark pit anymore. Upon the simple act of my turning over, the pit had completely disappeared, and I was now free-falling through the sky, as if I had just been thrown out of an airplane. It was now daytime. Below me, all I could see was blue ocean, for countless miles in every direction, and I was falling toward it fast. A single stretch of island came into view. Even from the aerial view I had, I could tell that it was the Academy! It almost looked like a castle, and the grounds took up the tiny patch of land, leaving really nothing beyond the paved walkways that stretched right out to the docks and into the ocean.

      The closer I got to the water, though, the more I could see that there was some sort of chaos going on. Boats became visible in the waters blow, and jets buzzed in the air around me. I had forgotten all about trying to fly, and just continued my free-fall, which ended up dropping me out into the open water, maybe a couple miles from the docks. After splashing down in the ocean, I lifted my head above the surface and took a look around. I had apparently fallen directly into an aquatic war zone. What - from above - just looked like a fray of vehicles scurrying around the air and sea, turned out to be a full-on battle. (This was reminiscent of the last time I went searching for the Academy, and saw that the area was occupied by two opposing military forces. It seems my subconscious decided to throw them back in the mix.) Speed boats with machine guns were battling jets. Scuba divers were waging attacks on the boats. The water - which looked pretty placid, from the air - was now turbulent with the mayhem that was going on around me.

      I didn't want to deal with this, though. I just wanted to get to the damn Academy. Deciding not to waste any time with this battle, I levitated myself out of the water and bolted toward the shore, flying over the water like a missile and dodging all of the combatants in my way - just trying my damndest to finally get a chance to explore the actual academy, itself.


      Unfortunately, I woke up just before reaching dry land.

    10. 09/03/2011 and 09/05/2011 - Untitled Fragment, "From Supernatural to Superheroes"

      Dream Fragment

      I don't remember very much of this dream at all. I was being held at gunpoint, by a group of women. We were in some old treasure room, with ancient maps on the walls, and all kinds of trinkets on the table. I remember that I had knowledge of a key which opened a secret compartment of this room. While the girls were trying to find the way to get to the next section of their scavenger hunt, I discretely checked any nooks and crannies for something that might have held the key.

      Later, I remember being on rooftops, in the city. For some reason, I (and a few others) were having to glide between these rooftops with parachutes; essentially 'hopping' from rooftop to rooftop. I can't remember what for, though.



      09/05/2011
      "From Supernatural to Superheroes"


      (I really wish I remembered more of this one.)

      I was with one of my exes, in a hotel. There was a lot of normal stuff that went on in the beginning of this dream, but I don't remember very much of it. Soon, though, we were getting attacked by werewolves. I remember then charging into the various hallways and rooms of the hotel, and then anyone who was mauled (but not killed), would become one of them. I also had a dog. Something like a lab, I believe. It stuck with me, throughout the dream, but one of the werewolves ended up getting it's hands on the animal. I remember the werewolf's face as it sneered at me and bit into my dog, ever so slowly, glaring at me. It was actually taunting me, slowly sinking a single fang into the dog - just enough to where it was sending the message to me that my dog would be turned into one of them.

      Later, I was back up in the hotel, and the werewolves were no longer in the picture. Instead, a giant robot had torn the roof of the hotel off, and was attacking us all from above. The robot was huge, and resembled a Sentinel, from Marvel Comics. My mom was in the scene now, and she was trying her best to hide from the metal giant that was tearing our room apart; ripping through the concrete foundation as if the building were made of tightly compact dirt. Finally, I realized that I was dreaming. Even though I knew she was a DC, I couldn't stand to see my mom so horrified. I threw my hands up above us and creating a green dome of energy, which acted as a force field. The giant made a couple of attempts to attack, but could not get passed the barrier. During this stand-off, I had somehow gotten word that the Avengers (or various Marvel superheroes) had arrived, to help fight the metal colossus. I heard one of them talking about how Spider-Man was inside the robot, tearing it apart from within. I thought this sounded like an awesome idea.

      I moved to the massive hole in the wall, still on some high level of the hotel. Not quite caring whether or not there was something to anchor myself to, I flicked my hand out like Spider-Man and visualized the web leaving my arm. It worked without effort, and I swung across the gap between myself and the robot, and drove my feet into its chest - smashing my way into the belly of the beast. Inside, the first thing that came to mind was Spider-Man's 'Maximum Spider' hyper combo. (I had been watching Marvel vs. Capcom 3 vids all day. Lol.) Mimicking the movement, I shot myself all around the inside of the robot, tearing through wires and parts, bouncing around within its center, like a BB in a tin can. Once confident I had done enough damage, I jumped down into the street, where a bunch of people were standing around in the hotel parking lot, watching the mayhem. I went over to talk to some girl, when a car suddenly came speeding through the parking lot, skidding around corners and almost hitting all of us. I noticed that the man had a toddler in the backseat, and this instinctively pissed me off. (Just the other day, I saw a guy blow through a stop sign with a toddler in his car, after peeling out of the liquor store parking lot.) Using telekinesis, I slammed a downward force onto the hood of his car from a distance, trying to stop it, but only causing it to bounce. I did it again, more forcefully, the car bouncing even more violently, seeming as if it were about to shake apart. Throwing my fist down toward the ground again, I gave one more forceful TK command. This time, I guess it was more intense than even I had intended. Not only did the car's front end smash down into the concrete, but the entire car burst into flames, as if I had purposefully lit it on fire with pyrokinesis.


      The last thing I remember is having a distinct sense of 'oops', before waking up.

      Dream Fragment One

      I was hanging out with MJ and my other ex, GV. GV was jealous because MJ and I were so close, and we were just having a great time. At one point, we'd stood back to back and were leaning over each other, cracking each others' backs and laughing, while GV kind of stood off in the background. I also remember MJ telling me she loved me at some point in time.


      Dream Fragment Two
      (I only remember a few seconds of this dream. )

      I remember flying really fast, over an ocean at night. I believe I was flying like Iron Man - with my palms facing back, and being propelled by my hands and feet - but I don't remember whether or not I was actually wearing the Iron Man suit. Spontaneously, I realized how unusual it was that I was flying, and I became lucid. My flight arched down toward the oncoming shoreline, and I brought my feet down below me. Touching down to the water, a few yards before reaching the shore, my feet skimmed over the water, like a skier pivoting to a stop, until I was actually stepping onto dry land. I took a moment to look at my hands, trying to anchor myself into the dream, but I also noticed that the tide was coming in extremely quickly. (Come to think of it, when I was looking at my hands, I wasn't wearing the suit. I didn't notice that until now.) It seemed more like flood waters rising, really. Whereas I was standing on the sandy shore, moments before, I quickly found myself submerged in water, up to my thighs. This made me really uncomfortable, and I starting think about sea monsters, which normally plague me in dreams that deal with a lot of water in them. Getting kind of creeped out by this, I shot up out of the water and flew into the sky again.

      Unfortunately, I woke up, soon after take-off.



      09/01/2011
      Dream Fragment One

      I remember that I had company over, and my room was a mess. There was also a large spider with a big orange sack on its back, scurrying around.


      Dream Fragment Two
      I was riding in the truck with my dad. He was driving. We were going down some cliff-side pathway, with a steep embankment to our left. The pathway was so narrow that it didn't even seem like the truck would be able to navigate it, without toppling off of the cliff. Before us, the pathway also dipped down into a flooded area, which we were apparently going to have to pass, to get by. The last thing I remember was pulling out my cellphone, to get a picture of these crazy flood waters.
    12. Fozzie Bear Costume and Girl from Earlier Dream

      by , 09-22-2011 at 08:34 PM
      Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid

      This is roughly lucid night #113

      Sept. 20, '11: I am lying in bed with my girlfriend. I guy in a Fozzie Bear costume is dancing above us. Everything goes in slow motion and I realize that I'm dreaming, but I think it is my girlfriend's dream.

      I bite Fozzie's nose and rip it off. Then I grab an ear (floppy, like a dog's) and rip it off, then the other ear too.
      And I pull his plastic eyes off and rip open the mouth untill the head is split open and I see the person inside the costume. Then I sort of throw the guy.


      I wake up with a gasp. It is a false awakening, but I think I am actually awake.
      I ask my girlfriend if she had a dream about a muppet. Then I tell her my dream that I just had about the Fozzie bear costume.


      In a later dream I become lucid while in a large, mostly empty parking lot. Someone tells me to go see who is in the car nearby. I think "Is it Sheila?" (I girl I have met in a few lucid dreams, but not in a long time.

      It is a girl who was in an earlier dream. She looks like a girl I knew in college, who married my friend. I ask her why she is here. I don't really get an answer (or I don't remember it).
      I ask her "How can I find Sheila?" but I wake up as I am asking the question.

      I was in Amsterdam for some unknown reason to me. I was extremely excited to be there but yet I was anxious because I had absolutely NO money on me and $0.00 in my account. I knew that I was going to have to call Allen and ask him to wire some money into my account for me. For the time being, I decided to explore the city and have fun. I was traveling alone and I found this extremely enjoyable (something I might consider doing one day in my waking life). I remember strolling over bridges, looking at rivers, and feeling the warmth of the sun on my back. It was really sunny with a brisk wind. I came to this really big night club like thing. There was a ton of people there even though it wasn’t night time yet. There appeared to be a line but I casually walked past everyone and went inside. Inside was large and square shaped with black walls and floors. There were bright strobe lights with green and blue beams above the crowds. Everyone was dancing in a really hard core way but I was still just casually strolling through the crowds, bobbing my head to the beat of the music. I then came upon stairwells that lead to a basement. The music wasn’t very loud down there. The floor was cement and there were plastic sheets hanging from the ceiling. There was a small crowd of about 6 people down there wearing heavy winter coats. Though this may sound like a scary situation my mind was very at ease as I knew this presented no danger to me. I began to chat with the people down there casually as if I knew them. Then a blonde man walked out from behind some sheets eating some food on a tray in his hand. Everyone seemed excited to see him. I saw the food and remembered that I had no money and that I still hadn’t called Allen. I didn’t say anything to the man but he seemed to know what I was thinking because he told me that he got the food for free from a school cafeteria and that I could get as much as I wanted for free too. I was happy to hear that and I felt as if I knew that I would be taken care of. I hung out with all the people down there for a while longer and then me and the blonde man went back upstairs to the club. I wondered around and danced fro a while longer. I went back outside and was walking down a narrow ally. Woke up.

      Awesome Cars
      I was with some friends and we had won some sort of competition. We had all been flown out to some car design and manufacturing facility and were each allowed to pick out any car we wanted. There were all sorts of cool cars everywhere, there were Lambos and Ferraris and cars you'd see on an episode of Top Gear, there were cars I'd never even seen before. We were all deciding which cars we wanted and joking around about reasons we'd get a certain car over another one. One car caught my eye in particular though, it was a slightly different looking Bugatti Veyron. I saw that it was different and chose it. Sure enough it was a prototype experimental version that wasn't supposed to be out on the floor with the others and had been mixed up. They were obligated to give me any car there though so I got it. This thing was awesome too, like the freaking Tumbler from Dark Night. It had rocket jets on the side to be able to shift side to side in an instant (talk about being able to change lanes haha) and all sorts of other cool things like radar and an AI that could drive etc.

      Definitely had more dreams but I didn't write them down when I woke up

      So some demon kidnapped me, and I recall being chained by the ankle to some rocky outcropping. The bastard, though a handsome fellow, was a complete cad. He was attempting to get my diary so he could gain control of me, but of course I had no intentions of telling him. So he left me of those rocks to look for it, I was inside some cave, and there were poppies. So I crushed the bastards poppies just to piss him off, then I woke up. Teach you to steal my diary, sir.
