non dream - lucid - non lucid

I'm in my room, playing with my budgie who is out of his cage.
(This is actually the guest room of my old house, but in the dream I believe it's where I currently live.)
My budgie is sitting on my index finger when I notice there's another budgie in his cage.
Weird... I take a closer look. My budgie takes off and joins the other one in the cage.
I guess he found a friend? (Felt like a reasonable explanation)

I suddenly realize that I'm late for 'the party' and open the door to leave my room.
It leads directly to some sort of party, in an absolutely huge place.
It looks a bit like a casino, but with all the machines and tables removed.
There are cocktail bars everywhere.
Everyone is dressed very nicely. Men are wearing a costume or even smokings, and Women are wearing fancy cocktail dresses.
I'm here because my company celebrates the release of a super successful game which I've worked on.
(I don't work yet, still studying)

A lot of people greet me, and I have no idea who they are.
This makes me feel a bit uncomfortable, and I decide that I need a drink.
I approach the center bar and order a brandy, because it's my drink of choice. (I don't usually drink strong stuff, and I've never had a brandy)
It's strong, but tastes good, I get a warm fuzzy feeling all over my body.
I turn around and look at the crowd. A little too many people for me to feel comfortable.
I feel a bit out of place, but at the same time I know exactly how to act and I'm quite confident.

I notice a women next to me at the bar. She's wearing an all red silky dress. She's hot, really hot!
I take another sip from my drink and say hi.
She recognizes me as the lead game designer for the game "Teraluna".
Sounds about right? (I knew Teraluna meant something more, but I couldn't think clearly and ignored it)
No wonder everyone knows who I am.
She starts flirting with me which I enjoy. She's moving really fast, after a minute she's practically throwing herself at me.
I'm pretty horny at that point and decide to leave the party with her for half an hour, nobody is going to notice.

I leave through the same door I entered and I'm back in my room. There are a lot more parrots now, 7 maybe 8.
The girl doesn't seem to find this surprising at all, so I assume the parrots appearing out of nowhere is a normal thing.
I realize I don't know her name, and I feel a bit bad, but once she takes her dress off I have other thoughts on my mind.
We have sex...

... I get dressed, she says she'll wait a few more minutes before rejoining the party. Makes sense.
I leave my room and I'm in a corridor between my room and the party. (It wasn't there before but I don't notice)
A man storms through the corridor and stops abruptly next to me, sliding a few more centimeters over the floor.
I recognize him, he's the doctor (Matt Smith) wearing his usual outfit.

"Parrots everywhere! Hi! I'm the doctor! You're wearing a bow-tie! Bow-ties are awesome!"

I get the urge to ask him "Doctor who?" but I think it's stupid.
But then he looks at me curiously. He's moving around me quickly, looking at me from different angles.

"Aha! Everything makes sense! So it is you!"
"Me?"
"Yes!"

Confusing as always huh?
He takes out his sonic screwdriver, it's clearly broken and makes a pathetic noise.
I'm starting to think at this point. The doctor? does he exist? Well, he's right there isn't he?

"Yes, yes, you're getting there, think think think!"

What? What is it he knows and I don't?
He points at my head:

"We're all in there"

I finally get it... mostly. I realize that I'm dreaming, but I'm not 'fully lucid'.
I understand that this is a dream, but I do not understand that the doctor is a fictional character, I believe he's really there, I believe that he's in my mind.
He explains that something went horribly wrong with the Tardis, and they ended up in my dreams somehow.
He opens a door, and sure enough, the Tardis is hidden behind it.
The doctor explains that he broke his sonic screwdriver, and now he can't fix the Tardis and they're trapped.

I suddenly get an idea.

"Check this out!"

He looks at me with a confused face.
I reach into the left pocket in my jacket, searching for a sonic screwdriver, and sure enough, there it is.
I take it out and hand it to the doctor.

"You're a genius!"

He runs into the Tardis and starts fiddling about with the screwdriver.
I enter as well out of curiosity. I find it funny that the only thing I can think of is "it's bigger on the inside".
He says that he's lucky to have ended up in the mind of a lucid dreamer.

"It's working!"

He says he has to leave immediately because Amy may be in trouble.
My sense of adventure kicks in.

"Can I tag along?"
"God no! Don't you realize? That would be ONE HELL of a paradox! You'd be leaving your time... from within your mind, without your physical body!"
"Right."

I step out of the Tardis. As he closes the door behind me he says:

"The mistery of the parrots. It still needs to be solved! Good luck!"

The Tardis vanishes in it's usual fashion.

I decide to go back into my room to check out what's up with the parrots.
The girl from before is gone. I understand that she vanished because I forgot about her.
However the room is full of all kinds of parrots. There are hundreds, in all kinds of colors.
There are some types of parrots I'm sure don't exist in waking life.
Oddly enough, I know what to do. I scan the auras of the parrots, and I immediately sense one that is far stronger than anyone else's.
And not just by a bit, it's stronger a thousandfold at least.

I search for the parrot in question and end up finding it in front of the window.
It's absolutely tiny, maybe half the size of a budgie, with blue feathers.

"Hello little bird."

He looks at me for a bit, then back at the window. He spreads his wings and the feathers on his body start changing colors.
It's beautiful! He glows in all colors at the same time, I've seen this pattern before!
It's the same one I have on the wings on my arm when I teleport.
I summon my own wings, and feel how the bird starts moving through the fabric of space.
I follow him...

(Pretty sure I shortly lost consciousness here)

... I'm flying though the skies, following this little blue bird as it travels the world.
My mind is blank. I do not think, I just follow.
After some time the bird lands in a sand desert. There's nothing else there, the place is dead.
I land next to the bird. He looks at me for some time, then he starts walking towards the sun.
With every step that he takes, plants grow out of the sand exactly where he just stood.
Grass and beautiful flowers grow right out of the desert.
I think that "he creates life", I conclude that he must be a phoenix.

I follow him for a bit, by now he has not only created grass and flowers but also small rivers.
So small, yet so powerful, what an interesting and wonderful being...

Odd dream... I was in a diablo/warcraft world (predominantly diablo, but I mention warcraft because there was a dwarf). We were under attack by a bunch of evil forces and we were holed up in a castle with (and I remember both of these numbers quite vividly, for some reason) 140 people (although earlier in the week, it was 170). A barbarian apparently wanted to see a doctor, and that is all that I remember.

I was part of a group of people working on restoring a building. We were doing some framing today. (In my waking life I do not do any construction)

We were on the bus line. At some point, one of the people in charge of the project locked the front door so that no bad people could get in.

I got hungry and started looking for some food. I went down stairs to the front door. Through a smoky plastic or glass door front, I could see the bus stop. I thought I better not unlock the door. Shoot! I was hungry.

I went back upstairs and went back to my crew. I started thinking that something was wrong and I should have gone out and caught that bus. If nobody was going to be at the bus stop anymore, it would stop coming around; then I would be trapped in the building.

I was still hungry. A building spirit started producing stuff for us to eat. It appeared in a refrigerator type thing (probably a refrigerator, but it wasn't that clear).

I pulled out three jars. One had something that you could eat, but it wasn't a main course type entree. It was just one piece of something floating in pickle juice...with a big thumb and two small thumbs cut off of someone.

In another jar, again in pickle juice, there was a foot. It was a skeleton foot with meet on top of it. Thick, nasty foot meet.

There was another jar with stuff just as gruesome, but I forget what it was. Now we are all getting scared. This is some kind of hell. A lady gets so scared she decides to kill herself, or escape if possible, by jumping out the window. She jumped into the "ocean" below. It was salt water, but not as big as an ocean.

I somehow got outside to check out where she jumped. Now there was just a waterway like a river where the street would have been on the bus line. The water was black. You didn't want to be in that water.

Now I have some dry food stuff in my mouth and I start spitting it out. With just stuff in the sides of my mouth and around my lips that I'm trying to spit out, the black water is the street again. There is a heavy Creole kind of woman cleaning up everywhere I spit, and she tells me to stop making a mess, but I keep trying to clean out my mouth.

The End.

School, Werewolf, Megan (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Log: 11:11pm Monday, February 20-21st, 2011
8:49am
Hours: (No joke, exactly 10 hours) Alram: None Audio: None

This dream was awesome. I was at school and i was hanging out with people before class on an Orange Day. I had to go to choir. I remember asking someone what day it was, and then realizing that it was good that i didn't have Science. So i was talking to people, mostly Riley, and the time was nearing that i had to go to choir. For some reason i had brought a few stuffed animals to school for somesort of spirit day or something. I brought Simba with me, i don't know whay i didn't become lucid, because i would NEVER do that. But Montana had one exactly like mine. I couldn't go to class until i looked both of them over and determined which one was mine. So i looked and looked, made a decision and then changed my mind until i finally noticed that Montana's has a giant whole straight through the head. I laughed it off, put Simba in my backpack, and as i was leaving i noticed that Uni was on the ground. I was just like, "Really people?" And put it into my backpack as well. By now it was well past the bell ringing. It was half and hour into class already. So i sat down next to Riley and asked him ifhe thought she would be fine with it. Then i said that i had seen others doing that but i've never done it myself. SO thought about it and thought about it and finally came to the conclusion that i would go. But right as i made that decision, a bunch of people started coming into the atrium. I saw people from choir so i thought they were let out early. So it was all good now.
I wanted to talk to some more people now. I saw Hannah, Sam, and Megan Ives. They were all siting at a table. I went over and sat next to them. But they all got up immediately becasue aparently, they had something to do. So i was sitting there all by myself. But then the girls came back around and realized it was me. They all sat down, Sam imediately to my left with Hannah behind her, and Megan to my right across the table a little bit. They said hello and stuff like that, but then they started complaining about how cold they all were. And so i pointed out the apparent fact that i was scorching hot. As i let them touch my arm they were amazing and in awe at the sheer heat radiating from my body. The soonnoticed that it was like being a werewolf. One of them quoted the book or something and Hannah immitated the way Bella may have touched Jacob, and i made fun of her playfully. I was ultimately impressed with myself and the high level at which my flirting was at during the interation. I was happy. Then it ended.

Taco Store, and Chasing (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This dream starts out in a store that is fairly small. It resembles the gas station near the school. I was there with my family, but at the same time, i was in school. I went to check out, and i had something to do with tacos and a can of soda. I asked him if $5 would work, and he asked ifi was used to paying 75 cents atthe other gas station and i said yes. He said it was ok, but the prices had gone up. He was devestated for some reason. He told me a heartfelt story of his life as the owner or something. I was touched and as i left i told him to have a great day. I turned to myleft and started back toward the school, but in this case it was also back towards my house. As i took off, in fornt of me a a group of 5 or 6 smokers. They were actually considerate as they, instead of letting the smoke go behind themand affect me, they blew it down towards the ground in an almost ocol effect. I tried to get passed them by walking extemely fast. I worked for a few people, but then Carlton and Daniel Marcus were next to me and they insisted on tlaking to me, but i didn't want to. But regardless i asked Carlton to do the coolsmoke thing. I can't remember if he did it or not. But we kept going, and the snow got worse and worse as we approached a hill. We had to climb up the snow. It was slippery and very hard to do. I got up particularly fast, and the others asked how i did it so well. I laughed and told them that it was my childhood. Curtis was behind me, and i thought it would be funny to push him down so he would have to climb all the way back up. So i did it and he complained. But he somehow got to the top before me and took off running. I climbed ever faster and as i got to the top i told someone to watch my coat as i took off running after him. I don't know the reason i was chasing him in the first place, but i did it anyway. We were going at full capacity and it felt great. I started running out of gas, and he just kept going. So i had to use my intelligence rather than speed to catch him. He went through someone's garden and said that he was going to win because he had been there before, and it did seem familiar, as if he had done a video there before. But i simply went around, and he wa there and i ran one last time as fast as i could and finally tackled him down to the ground. And then it ended.

Zoo Animals, Jurassic Park Island (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I cannot remember much from this dream. I know animals were involved and we had to get them from one place to another. The place we were trying to get them was similar to an island that Jurrasic Park took place on. It was secretive and amazing. I was the head of the operation. The only other thing i can remember is the plane rides. There were many people, and they were all drinking soda. By the end of the ride, the drinks were being delivered automatically people they already knew hey liked the soda so much. Then it was over.

I'm standing in kind of a gravely road and there is a gray pit bull barking at me and trying to get an angle on me to bite me. I have a pen.

As he attacks, I stab him in the back. I end up stabbing him repeatedly. Once I kind of miss and he nearly bites me. Eventually the DOG has an army weapon of a tube that you drop rocket things in and they shoot out immediately. The dog puts a rocket in, but it is more like another smaller tube of metal that he puts in.

Now I have a metal pole and I smack the metal that he is trying to shoot at me. The projectile gets bent and won't come out. Now the dog is a person. He is like a crazy soldier. I start to whack him with my metal pole. I hit him about three times. I kind of get a head shot and a couple body shots.

He tells me the next blow would have killed him, so luckily I don't need to hit him again. He looks pretty good, but I don't want to kill him. Now though, he is after me. I run away.

I end up in a mall and security is there. Other people are around and they know about the guy on a rampage. I start to tell the officer about the dog that turned into a soldier guy and realized that the story would make me look crazy, so I just said there was a guy who was trying to attack me.

The End.

I was in a house that was turned into an insurance business, but it was set up like a home, and the owner's family lived in it. The daughter was there, wearing a whitish dress. She was a dirty blond. She was depressed and took a bottle full of lamp oil and started chugging it.

I was the only one who was concerned about her. I told them not to make her vomit, and I would call poison control. I was looking for the number but I couldn't find it. To get the number, I had to go somewhere between exit 9 and exit 14 on Georgia 400. I started to realize that that was too much ground to cover to find a number and started getting nervous because time was of the essence.

Dream
I had a false awakening
And I was lying in my bed and I keept my eyes closed trying to Wild and within 20 seconds I was getting vibrations. I was soo excited, but there were two people around my bed from shoool that were talking and very disstracting I thought it was normal.
I woke up for real and was dissapointed that I didnt actually achive a Wild.

The dream started out with me in a large room. hanging from the ceiling was a gorgeous, silver chandelier. The walls were a deep black and the carpet a plush red, the color of blood.

I get up, looking into a mirror, and walk into my bathroom taking care to dress and cleanse myself properly.

Finally, the dream picks up.

I'm walking down the hall with a tray filled with scones, tea, and a variety of other English dishes before a door opens and I'm tumbling to the floor.

*This is when I realize I am dreaming*

As the door closes, it reveals a man with silver eyes and white-gold hair.

"Are you alright?"

"Y-Yes."

The man helped me to my feet, looking at me worriedly before calling for another maid. She took me into another room and changed me into this amazing, breath-takingly beautiful dress.

It was golden, shining like the sun only a darker gold. A layer covered it like mist and it was embedded with jewl-like diamonds.

Three inch heels were on my feet, silver against the gold, and a golden tiara was placed atop my pinned hair.

The maid--Kristine--took me back to the Master of the house.

He smiled and took my hand, kissing it.

"You look beautiful," he murmured. "May I have a dance?"

I took a step back, slightly appauled by his abruptness, and shook my head, holding my hand to my chest.

"I...I can't," I whispered. "I don't...I can't dance."

"Then allow me to teach you."

He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him before I could speak and lef me easily through the steps as if he had a thousand times before.

Music played and we were spinning around the room and he spun me to were his arms were around me and my back was against his chest.

He looked at me and I at him before he kissed me.

I froze and he pulled away smiling.

The dream crumbled then, the piercing sound of my alarm clock waking me.

Im driving near my grandmas flat with S and V. We drive to this fenced place with S and I rush him to get over the fence, while P and V have already got out of the place. Its like this place where they keep the high voltage transformers locked.

I also remember being in some place which was like labyrinth, but still it wasnt a labyrinth...

Dream - Lucid - AP

I was outside, approaching a fenced-in tennis court with a track around it. There were many people my age walking around it with children on their shoulders. I was going to be assigned a child, but I didn't want to participate. It was some after school program or something.

The next thing I remember is stepping into a giant elevator the size of a room. It also looked like a room, with hardwood floors, overhead lights and big windows, though there was no furniture. The windows overlooked the city. The elevator started to climb upwards, slowly at first, and then faster and faster. Then, I figured out I was going up the Sears Tower, and once the elevator got to the top, it would plummet back down very fast. I was already on the elevator, and even though I was frightened, I knew I had to stay there, and that once I reached the bottom, I would be ok. The elevator reached the top of the tower, hovered there for a minute and I overlooked the city. Then, I sat on the ground in a fetal position in preparation for the plummet. The elevator started to fall at a very fast rate, and I closed my eyes. It felt like my stomach was going into my throat, the way it usually feels when you fall at a very fast rate.

Then, I was at a house with a family, I think it was Ryan's family, or at least it was his mother (I've never met them in waking life). At any rate, it was Kacey's birthday, and we were all going to go out somewhere. Everyone was in the van but me. I remember Kacey was in the passenger's side seat, with Ryan's mother sitting in the driver's seat. I was going to go with them, and they were waiting on me, but I could only find one of my pink house slippers that I was going to wear. I was walking around with only one of them on. I went to the car to ask Ryan's mom where the other one was, and she told me she didn't know, but I should check somewhere else (can't remember where specifically). I went back into the house and still couldn't find it. I looked out into the van, and I saw the back of Katherine's blonde, crazy-haired head in the passenger's side seat. The van looked very full of people.

The elevator thing is a fairly common dream theme for me, where I'll be in a plummeting elevator, and I sit down in it in a fetal position as it is about to drop. I never really think too much about it in the dream though other than "Oh shit". This time though, I seemed to face the fear. Interesting, as I have no fear of elevators in waking life. Symbolism? I think so.

Good morning, everybody.

Dream #1

I was in a car with my sister. We were out in the driveway of her house, although it feels now like we were also in some kind of dirt parking lot for a fairgrounds. My sister was talking to me about and showing me some kind of pictures of a place that she and some of her children were planning to go to.

I had to go to some other car to get something for my sister's trip. I went to the other car with my brother-in-law. It was a few rows away in the dirt parking lot.

The trunk or hatchback of the car was open, and my brother-in-law and I were looking inside. I had my computer opened up in the back of the car. I asked my brother-in-law to look up something on YouTube. It had to do with some pop-culture figure or figures, but it also had something to do with homosexuality.

My brother-in-law looked the thing up. I was now walking away from the car. I was now worried that somehow my brother-in-law would think I was trying to make some comment on my own sexuality by showing him that YouTube clip. (In waking life, even though I wouldn't say I'm gay, my sexuality is absolutely not normal. But I try to act as normal as possible when I'm in front of my family.)

I was back to sitting in the car with my sister. My sister now said that she was too sick, after all, to go to the event. For some reason, the whole family was now going, instead of just my sister, brother-in-law, and some of their kids. I was also going. Now only my sister wasn't going.

I felt bad, like maybe we shouldn't go at all if my sister wasn't going.

Dream #2

There may have been some situation where I had to take care of some task for a group of professionals. But I had messed it up somehow.

Later on, I was running from zombies. The zombies were pale white, with rotting faces. Most of the zombies wore button-up shirts, ties, and slacks.

I was running from the zombies through big corridors like mall-sized corridors that looked like hallways in a hospital. Everything was white, lit with greenish-white fluorescent light. Occasionally I would find myself in larger rooms.

Zombies would pop up everywhere and surprise me. They would almost catch me, and then they'd chase me through the corridors. I may also have been shooting some of them with a gun I had.

Eventually I found some way to jump way high, up to some high-up window. The window was swung open from its top. I floated down through the space. I found myself in some greenish-white-lit place that looked like a mix between a bowling alley and a hospital.

From all different places, a bunch of normal humans came into the bowling alley. Many of them were carrying guns. Some of them were wearing what I thought of as hunters' outfits -- beige vests and caps, flannel shirts, and khaki-like slacks. Many of the people were wary, on guard, waiting for more zombies to just spring up.

I was about to go to all the people. I thought I had found a group of people that I could be safe with. But as I approached them, they became suspicious of me, almost violent toward me. It was obvious that I wasn't a zombie, just like it was obvious that they weren't zombies. But they didn't care. They just didn't like me, and they didn't want me around.

So I walked away from them before even approaching them. I may have started walking down one of the bowling lanes, thinking I'd find a sneaky way to get through the building at the end of the lanes.

Suddenly I was fighting something, possibly zombies. There were gunshots everywhere. Explosions were blowing up the wood of the bowling lanes. I was turning back and shooting at whatever I was fighting.

Original Date: 2/21/10
Type: Fragment/Family - Non Lucid
Dream:
(there were a couple of dreams I had, so this is a fragment runoff, the last of about 3-4)
First I was in a store shopping for baby clothes with some women who just had a baby girl, she was standing there with the stroller. Next thing I was at some house, and my grandma arrived from somewhere like a trip because someone was saying "She's here!", there was another girl there (I think maybe the girl who just had the baby) and she was in the kitchen. Then I remember me and possibly my mom (but later turned into my Grandma P) appeared at a different house. I remember hearing her make a comment about how the other girl at the old house was going to have to unload the big trucks filled with all of Grandma P's things by herself (and I felt pity for her, wanted to go back and help her, but I couldn't). Outside of this house there was a portion of maybe a wrought iron fence and on it was hanging some necklace, like red velvet and gold. I picked it up and brought it in the house, my Grandma P was standing at the door looking displeased. Then I remember a feeling of needing to prepare for something. And then we were in the kitchen and my Grandpa S was there and there was a huge box of sweet cream butter that we were unpacking into the fridge, I was taking out of the box and handing to someone who would put it into the fridge. The weird thing was I was pulling them out and the packages were opened and some was missing, like someone was eating as I was putting it away, then the butter started to be colorful as I took it out. Bright green ones, pink ones and blue ones. My Grandpa S started asking me questions about my boyfriend, like he was trying to tease me, I was a little reluctant, he was hinting about being married and I remember telling him that he is divorced and has two little boys. Then I heard my Grandpa S say he was hungry, telling my Grandma P and next I see him with a roast boiling in a coffee pot in front of my face. I say to him "I like to make chicken with vegetables, take chicken breast and season it..." and my Grandpa S cuts me off saying "Chicken!? Naw I don't want that healthy stuff!" and I say "Well Grandpa, I have to eat healthy now, or I won't make it to live as long as you." And he got quiet and said "Well, that's true".

Objective Context:
I have been thinking a lot about my grandparents on both sides of my family and feeling somewhat stressed that I have not seen my family in over a year. I used butter in cooking last night, and I make pork roast and kraut yesterday for dinner. I also interpreted dreams yesterday about someone's Grandfather and having a baby.

Age of Dream Ego: 26

Feelings:
Neutral, like a little workhorse, connected, familiarity

Can't remember where I was, but it seemed to be some sort of park or something. It was the end of a bigger and more eventful dream, I know that much for sure, but can't remember what it was. There was this random guy that apparently liked me. At first I said that I didn't want him, but I ended up making out with him.

---

I was at school. Apparently we had another random round of exams. We had to do them all at once. There was an exam for every subject.

I had been given a geography and history exam. I was totally lost on them; I could read the questions in the dream, but none of them made any sense. I tried my best to answer them.

Eventually we got them back. I had done really poorly; on one of them I had gotten 7/80. I was annoyed, and started doing the (broken) math in my head to figure out what my new exam average would be. I was annoyed because it was so low, but there was nothing I could do about it.

I had a few more FA's than this, probably 6 total. These are just the significant ones.

I'm taking pictures in a field. There's a white house up ahead. I'm with a girl, she's my friend.
The scene changes somewhere along the line to my grandparent's yard. I'm still taking pictures. My dogs are there, but they look like puppies. I take a picture of them.
I walk around to take more pictures. I walk up the driveway and I step in some dog shit. I look down. "At least it I'm not wearing my good shoes." I say to my friend. I look down. I'm wearing my Doc Martens. The bottoms look like my tennis shoes. I rub my feet in the grass. I look down at the bottom of my shoes, there isn't anything on it. "That worked well." I say

I wake up in my bed. I go downstairs. My grandma's visiting.
"Where's Cathy?" I say. She's supposed to take me to lab today.
"She got malaria." my mom says
"Ohh. Mosquito bite? I saw her get bit by one, it must have been that."
I want to show my grandma the awesome pictures I took (they really were awesome in the previous dream). I go upstairs to get my camera. It's on the floor of my bedroom. I go to grab it.

I wake up in my bed and try to get up. I'm floating. I float downstairs and out the door, but it's hard to control. I keep rubbing my hands together, which helps a little but not a lot. Strange, it has always worked to stabilize dreams for me. It's daytime outside. I see my neighbor across the street, Eric, who is always in his yard in my dream. I've never talked to him before this.
"Hey, Eric!" I yell
"Yeah?" he says. He sounds closer than he seems to be in the dream.
"Can you come help me out?"
"Sure." he says. He seems pretty friendly.

He walks over to me and grabs my hand (I'm still floating). I'm wearing gloves. I take them off. He starts to pull me across the yard.
"Eric, are you my dream guide?" I say
"Nope." he says
"Can you take me to him?" I say
"Yep, he's your friend. That's where I'm taking you."
"So.. how are you?" I say trying to make small talk. He looks at me with a blank expression.
"...how are you?" I say again, slower this time
"Oh. I'm alright." He says. Apparently he isn't a very intelligent DC. I see the shadow of a figure in my garage. I assume that this is my dream guide.
the dream fades and I wake up in my bed.

I lay in my bed for a minute. My cat is next to me. My sister walks by in the hallway. I look at the wall in front of me. There's some blue writing on it. I look at the writing and try to read it, it keeps changing. I become lucid. I try to walk out my door again, but I'm having issues. My vision is pretty blurry. I go downstairs and my vision melts to black.

I wake up in my bed. I look at my surroundings. There's a Winnie the Pooh poster on the wall. I definitely don't have one of those.. I become lucid. I walk out my door. As I'm getting downstairs, yet again my vision starts acting up again. As I get to the front door, I say to myself "When I step outside this door, everything will be clear." It works. I see Eric out in his yard again. He starts to walk over. He's wearing a black masquerade type mask and a brown shirt with what looks like a wolf and something else, maybe a wizard? idk.
"Nice shirt, Eric." I say
"Oh, thanks." he says.
"Yeah, it looks pretty badass. Will you help me find my dream guide again?"
"Sure, I just have to finish up with what I'm doing." He walks past my house. I'm not going to wait for him. The dream fades.

I wake up in my bed. I do a reality check. This time, it's real life.

I get “dropped off” in a town (I’m just suddenly in the middle of the road in a foreign town. Perhaps this was the beginning of a dream.) There are a few cars but no people and the setting has an eerie loneliness to it, as if it was a toy town or a set up. It feels “off” like I’m being tricked. I walk onto the sidewalk in front of me. There’s a big sign with a dancing lady advertising burlesque dancers or something. Proceeding, I see a door that says “For Farting Only”. The door has a lock and is obviously for the “management” behind this fake town. I’m bored of looking around so I enter the next door I see.

It’s an office building. There are typical cubicles full of busy workers and shelves stuffed with folders and papers separating the people. In the back of the first room there’s a clear window-wall with an archway. I have a “destination” in mind I’m not conscious of it. I don’t care about anyone in the room and no one cares about me, so I get into the second room easily. I see a girl who’s working and tell her to come with me. She does so without much thought.

Outside, I look into the sky and see a short distance away a little movie theater. As we begin walking toward it, we pass a field that people are setting something up in. I know (or am told, somehow- no detail) that it’s a religious banquet for the town. We walk passed it for now. On a wooden fence in front of us there’s a sign for the movies. 2 people=x amount of money, but 2 girls=a discount. I’m pretty excited that I can get in for less money because I’m gay, and the movie suddenly has a “date” quality to it.

The movie theater is inside a building that, on the outside, looks like a mesh between my high school and my junior high school. There’s a big pavilion (like junior high) hanging over the side of the building, but the actual building is my high school. Beneath the pavilion, there’s an old guru/monk who’s taking people’s money and giving them tickets. I ask for two tickets for two girls and he giggles at me. He gives me the tickets and my change back, but instead of the right amount he gives me two 268 dollar bills. For a moment my mind questioned or was at least surprised that these bills existed, but no lucidity. He said “just kidding” and took them back, giggling.

We didn’t go to the movies (or I don’t remember it) and just walked back into the same little section of town. I have something I want to do now: I plan to make food for the banquet but put “evil” devil food things on the inside of seemingly good dessert meals. I don’t remember if the girl comes with me anymore, but I at least forget about her existence. The office building is no longer the same place, but it’s in the same place and I re-enter it.

It’s now someone I know’s house, but I don’t know who. Heather, Tyler and Jack are there. Tyler comes up to me and starts whispering something about her teeth. She got her braces off (she didn’t have braces in real life). Her upper front teeth all blend together and look like two giant teeth and my dream self “knows” that this is because she had braces on the upper teeth before. Now she got her lower braces off, and those teeth all blend together now too, so she has three giant teeth on the bottom row. We laugh about it and she’s embarrassed to show Heather.

We all begin to work on making the evil dessert. First everyone makes regular mixes for cakes and brownies, but we pour them into trays with the center’s hollowed out. To make the “evil” food, we all spread across the floor and little crimson red glowing strings weave between all of us, making a big cross-hatch pattern of “evil”. Somehow we form this into an edible red mix and put it in the center of all the food. We like making things, so I also make chips and dip using regular potato chips and a mix of strange salsas all put together into a bowl. Henry is there and he keeps eating them and I remind him it’s for the religious banquet.
