Had another lucid dream this morning. I was staring up at my ceiling awaiting sleep paralysis. When it happened, I got out of my bed and did the usual routine of getting out of my house and out into the street. I saw Naomi. It was night time in the dream. I convinced her to come meditate with me. There a bit of confusion of where to meditate, though; the grass or the concrete? That's all I remember really. Anyway, the lesson learned during this attempt is that I don't need to visualize; I don't need to deliberately and forcefully create images, sounds and tactile sensations for a lucid dream. Because I am close to REM sleep during a WBTB period, the mind will GIVE me the visualizations without any effort as part of the process of falling asleep. My job as the lucid dreamer is to quietly observe these phenomenon known as hypnagogia. Meditation is excellent for this in that it forces me to not get caught up in the phenomenon. It teaches me to remain detached from it. Onward and upward.
I don’t remember what happened in the first LD, but it lasted about 5 minutes. I know I lost lucidity due to being distracted. Second lucid: I spawned in a bus, got out, did part of the procedure, but didn’t do the stabilization half, or break through, so I remained at Layer 2. I did spawn a flat, 2D animated Princess Luna behind some barrels, but the product was half-assed due to being in Layer 2. I could not interact with her when I tried. Next, I got distracted by the bus and DCs. Around me was a curved, 2-lane road surrounded by field, which was surrounded by woods a few hundred feet out. (The trees were on the shorter side, and were deciduous.) Time: 1-3 minutes Third lucid: I did half of the procedure again due to distraction. I stopped a lot of the stuff going on at the beginning with a verbal command inside a church, but there were still a few left. I did not focus on the procedure enough to break through to Layer 3. I got distracted by a car that needed to be pushed. This car was on grass behind the church building. There was tall grass and scattered deciduous trees around. The weather was sunny. Later, I was at very low lucidity, inside a car that was strapped with explosives. I was trying to ditch the car safely, so that nothing else would be damaged. Time: 5-7 minutes Total Time: 11-16 minutes Distractions: 3

Feel like i'm missing a lot of memory. I have started to write them since today and that helps. The good thing is I have been having rapidly increasing dream recall and a hint of lucidity for the past 4 days in a row! This might be a record. Cut a destructive pattern in my life. Well not cut it myself due to circumstance. Last night I felt a little depressed for half of the day. I thoguht this might screw up my record but in fact the increase remained. So im very positive about it. 4-4- Another one of these creepy ones. let's start with the sweet one. My friend who I talk to on facebook sometimes said she wantd to smoke weed with me. I saw the letters there on the computer screen but the energetic exchange reveleaed an emotion that said. Hush. This is what it is. Do not make more of it. I feel this is true. A little girl ( note: I happen to dream about little girls shortly after talking or dreaming of her) walks into a house. She is lured by some guy. I am detectiving the situation and follow inside. Inside I see blood on all the walls. Tortured children bodies. All sorts of messed up things. Torture equipment. Hung up. Entire closests full of bodies. Somehow I realized the litle girl we where following has undergone the same faith. 5-4- Loads of dreams. Did not write them. Dreamed of having my throat slith. blood gshing out. thought of a friend who went to hookers. Thought I might have them nurse my gushing neck. And get laid while am at it. 6-4- Should really document this faster 7-4- Start of the night. Wake up from dreams again. Here's my exact thoughts: [I][U]I should write this down. I am going to forget. I maybe (probably not as we know now) remember it if I try. This dream is boring. I will not waste my time writing this down even though I might forget it. [/U][/I] Note: Obviously my first inclination in the deepest of deepest of heart I knew I would simply forget it. "Blonde chick FB" Dnno really Morrocain Telephone FB .. Chatting to him on FB. See him walking. Put down phone to talk to him. I stutter my words . He gets angry. Next thing you know 20 morrocain kids are getting angry and swarming me. I'm like yo , fuk these kids. I tell them to get the fuck out and walk through them. Shortly after the bigger Morrocain kid. Proably the one I initiatelly talked to tells the kids to chill. People did see this from across I could hear them getting excited from the carnage. Probably inspired by a jackass scene. I felt inspiration... coming from a scene. On my belly skating in the streets next to bikers. Going WEEEEEEEE I get some comments. I make a big jump at some point. Someone laughs at me. I end up crossing a dangerous road and into a meeting. Manly P hall is giving a lecture. At this point it occured to me that humanity is not stupid. Since the birth of christianity humanity has seeked to merge with the divine realms. Marloes and blondie are talking. I cut in twice in one morning. I talk about going o the supermarket. She did say she heard something about it 2 days ago. Important notes: Last dream was basic and obviously dream-generated. It's so obvious that a desire and something more is me creating the entire facade. It's embaressing that I am still non-lucid about it. Another thing, this supermarket perhaps by association or from some deeper level came into my thoughts and I wrote something about it this morning. Some practical change is occuring because of it in real world situation 6-4 - 5-4
Morning of April 7, 2017. Friday. My family and I as we are now are watching television. At one point, it seems we are watching the movie “Firestarter” (1984). Over time, it seems that there are some very strange changes in the movie as I remember it and I become more and more annoyed. In a scene where Andy is talking to his daughter Charlie, he is now wearing a fireproof suit (where in the original scene he was in his normal informal clothes). I talk about how they must have covered up the image of the actor with some sort of CGI. I find the change ridiculous. (His face cannot even be seen as it is covered with some sort of material.) Other scenes have been changed. At times, Lego people appear in some of the scenes instead of human actors. Another scene has a stuffed dog that moves about like a real one. The nature of the movie becomes more and more surreal. At one point, I am sitting on a bed, seemingly somehow inside the movie (but only for a short time) and a stuffed dog and a stuffed rabbit are present (the stuffed rabbit in the bed and the stuffed dog walking about near the bed). I eventually decide that the television has become corrupt and needs to be rebooted like a computer so that television shows and movie scenes will be as they should be. I am in front of the television. Our youngest son is also present. I mention how I have to reboot the television. I look on the bottom right of it but I am not sure what to do. On the bottom left, but mostly arranged vertically, is a set of about seven buttons. They are of different shapes, a couple horizontally rectangular and a couple vertically rectangular while others are square. I see that one of the buttons (the bottommost one) reads “SET”. I assume that this might mean “reset” so I press it and the television screen goes black and a sequence of dominoes (overhead view) appears on the screen. Our youngest son tells me that those buttons are only for the domino game.
Still 2 hours beyond my target bedtime. On a caloric deficit diet again now for 2.5 weeks, I think it's harder to dream on a caloric deficit, the brain has less energy to work with... +(f) flying at high speed down small city (tree-lined, urban area) side streets + football: I'm offensive lineman for 2-on-2 football the defense starts the play and the larger/adult guy goes to the left (around the building?) me & teammate are defending our (quarterback) our group is in the stands? I block with hands and forearms, the guy is trying to push through, I'm trying to avoid a holding call, this goes on for a short while. I hear a (fan?) say that there was a foul but I'm pretty sure there wasn't + in a building, I'm watching a small curious boy who's trying to get into the control rooms which I'm trying to prevent. There are doors which are swung open and overlapping with other doors preventing entry, I can see the control room through high windows placed in the doors, nothing is holding them shut though, he could just move them and get in. So I distract him, behind us is a super powerful microscope and I bring him to the console with lots of switches and levers, I want to show him something so I take a glass plate and tell him to blink on it a few times so that an eyelash falls on to the plate, and one quickly does, I say "good" and move the plate to the scope base and want to turn on the powerful lights. The kid reaches for the console and I say "be careful with that" I also switch some levers and some lights come on from above and focus on the spot. + in/outdoors daylight there is a raised mound with an inner area that's important. The stone of the walls in one place is trembling and threatening to collapse so (me? my friend?) hits the trembling stone with the base of a magical staff that freezes the rock into place. Around the back there is another such opening into the inner area with more trembling stone and I'm calling out to have it also hit before it collapses, my friend comes and does it and all is OK + inside a room in an office, (IF from med gym?), talking, wife enters from right and she's wondering where the things we gave are, why aren't they on display, IF says there are many people here and they can't please everybody. They sit at a table and start going through some books, there are icons in the books + in some area there is an older man in a room across from me who's coming towards me, sees me, stops, and turns around and returns to his laundry machine [DREAM SIGN] and presses a button to start another cycle. I have to pee and so I head to a bathroom, inside there is a row of stalls along the wall to my right and there's a kid sitting atop the stall door on each one. The last kid is wearing shorts and I can see underneath he has a poopy diaper with chunks visible coming out through the leg, I don't want to get roped into changing this kid so I move one and hope he doesn't ask me, there's a room with more stalls in it beyond but a dad is leading his boy in there ahead of me, so I turn around and go out + sitting in an audience area [DREAM SIGN], rows of folding? chairs set up, my college GF DB (but doesn't look quite right I notice?) is coming towards me and I extend out my right hand to guide her into my row and have her sit with me, she (asks?) where's the kid?, I look to my left and see just his backpack on the seat next to me, I think he took off
Morning of April 7, 2017. Friday. I am in an unfamiliar apartment (in an unknown location; that is, no idea of the city or country), though it seems to be implied to be John Lennon’s. John Lennon (October 9, 1940-December 8, 1980) is seated near a table opposite the room from me and facing me. There are two unknown males in the room, one on the far left, one on the far right. I feel very good and have an optimistic attitude even though I am uncertain of who these other men are. They have scraggly hair and are of an unusual appearance. There is some conversation, but I do not focus on it that closely. John Lennon goes over to the area near where I had been though I am now more near the center of the room. He inserts his left hand, up to his wrist, into an unusual recess (which is actually shaped like a hand) that is on the side of his microwave oven. I suppose it is like some sort of security procedure. There is no door on the oven. It seems to have fallen off at some previous time. A man on the other side of the room seems worried and complains that he can feel the heat. I recall hearing that microwave ovens can be dangerous (especially with the door off), though I do not feel much concern myself. He uses it with the door off to warm up a bowl of something. Later, there seems to be a normal oven in the room (though the room is not a kitchen), opposite my side, with the microwave now near the back of the normal oven (and facing the opposite direction). I can feel a lot of heat from the normal oven, though it is not uncomfortable. In the last scene, the four of us walk to a dump (landfill). One of the males is carrying a large stuffed rat, which is somewhat cartoon-like and which is about half the size of a person. The male says he is discarding it because it “doesn’t talk anymore”. As we are nearing a pile of trash (on our right) which he intends on throwing the stuffed rat onto, the rat says “Are you kidding, I’ve been talking all day”. (No one hears it except me.)
2017, 04-06 Escape From Moria I am in a dark place. A very dark place. It is so dark that I literally can’t see my hand in front of my face. The night vision feature of my Penticon computer chip implant activates and now I can see around me, though everything has a strange greenish tint from the night vision. I am in a long underground passage that looks like it was built rather than a natural cave. It looks like a mine shaft. I follow it for a while and soon find it opens into a huge hall that is supported by many huge pillars. I am able to see the main hall with my night vision, but I see there is a dim light coming through a passage off to my left. I head down that passage to see if I can find out where I am and why I’m there. The source of the light is from a door on the right. I go through the door and stop short when I see an elf pointing an arrow at me. It’s Legolas, and he lowers his bow when he sees me. He says I have a bad habit of sneaking up on people. I tell him I wasn’t trying to sneak. Boromir looks puzzled and says he thought I got trapped outside Moria after the lake monster destroyed the doors. Sam looks upset and says he thought I was going to see Bill safely to Rivendell. Gandalf has been focusing his attention on an old book, but he looks up and sees me. He is standing beside a large slab of stone that looks like it might be a tomb, the book is lying open. He closes up the book and gives it to a dwarf, Gimli. He also wants to know how I got past the destroyed western gate. He then says I can tell them later, for now he has a feeling we had better all get moving out of there. He says to go back to the main hall and then exit through the eastern passage. But before anyone can move towards the western exit there is the sound of drums from all around. Legolas, who has gone back to watching the passage, calls to the others that they are coming. I reflexively ask who. Gimili says we cannot get out. Aragorn says to close and bar both doors. Boromir is beside the western door and he says it’s no good, the door is broken and wouldn’t budge if we had our own troll to push. Gandalf fires an energy blast down the hall outside and illuminates many orcs in the light as the orc in front gets a hole blasted through it. Gandalf tells everyone to run through the other door, there’s too many to fight. I don’t figure I have to listen to Gandalf, so I go out into the halls to stall the orcs and give the fellowship a better chance to get away. I form my right arm into an Alex Mercer blade, charged with light energy so it is giving off a light that I can see the enemies by. The orcs fire arrows at me, but I knock them aside with my Alex Mercer blade. That doesn’t deter them, however, they are advancing down the hallway. The group of orcs parts and makes way for a troll coming through their ranks. The troll is practically filling up the entire passageway all by itself. I’m not sure how easy it will be to take on a troll in such a closed area, but remember talking to MoSh about the Ranma ½ anime series. I think of a technique used by Ryoga Hibiki called Bakusai Tenketsu, which shatters inanimate objects such as stones… so I use it on the supports of the passage to each side, causing the aging structure to collapse around and on top of the orcs and troll. I go back through the door into the room with the tomb and I see no one is left there. The far door has also collapsed even though I didn’t do my Bakusai Tenketsu anywhere near it. I assume I must have accidently caused the collapse, however. There were apparently some orcs on the near side of the collapse in the outer passage because now they come into the room and attack me without seeming to realize there is nowhere to go in here. I use my Alex Mercer blade arm to fight back. Only a few orcs got through so it doesn’t take long to cut them down. My next thought is that I have no idea how I’m supposed to get myself out of here with the outside passage blocked and the other door also blocked. Maybe I could find a way through the collapse? I start looking around the collapsed door to see if I can find a way. There aren’t any openings large enough for anything bigger than an ant to go through. As I pointlessly try to fit into a small opening, however, I find I am getting smaller and smaller… until I fit through! I hurry along the dark passage and stairs beyond by using night vision once again, and I seem to be my normal size again. Somehow I seem to have changed size without being consciously aware of how I did it. I wonder if I will be able to do it again if I choose to… I finally enter a huge hall at the end of a passage. The hall is lit by a red light coming from a giant crack halfway through the room. Fire is coming from that crack. In the other direction I see a long and narrow bridge. On top of the bridge I see something ugly like a demon of some kind and Gandalf. I can hear Gandalf speaking loud and clear, "I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. You cannot pass. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udûn. Go back to the Shadow! You cannot pass." I see Aragorn and Boromir coming up behind Gandalf as he strikes the bridge, causing a wall of white flame to erupt and the bridge to break under the demon’s feet. I know what is about to happen and I take off at a sprint to reach the bridge in time. The bridge collapses underneath the demon, and it plunges into the depths. I am reaching the edge of the bridge as the demon sends its whip up to snare Gandalf, he is hanging on the edge as I jump the gap and dive to grab his arm… I barely get hold of his hand. He gives me a strangely calm look and says to me to just let go, this is not the end. I can’t hold on with only having his hand and the weight of the demon pulling down, and he slips away, yelling louder to everyone to, “Fly, you fools!” I’m about to jump right off the bridge and go after Gandalf and the demon, but the next thing I know strong arms are pulling me away from the edge, a man says not to be foolish, Gandalf is beyond our aid now. I look and Aragorn is pulling me away from the edge. The bridge is crumbling, if I hold Aragorn up he might fall, too… not acceptable. So I follow him the rest of the way over the bridge and we get off just in time. Aragorn calls to the others that he will lead them now, and we must start by following Gandalf’s final command, we must get out of here! So there really isn’t any option now but to follow the others down a passage and then into the final chamber. I see the door to the outside on the far side of the room, the light shining brightly through. There are more orcs barring our way to get there. Aragorn and Boromir charge right in and kill several orcs, Legolas hits a few more with well aimed arrows. I reform my Alex Mercer blade (it had changed back to a normal arm) and use it to cut down a couple more orcs. The rest run away in fear. We all pass through the door and onto a rocky landscape under the bright sun. We move quickly away from the entrance, making sure to get beyond the range of bows and arrows before taking a pause. I look around, everyone is sad, some are openly crying. I just kept thinking I should have saved Gandalf, I should have saved him. Apparently I said that aloud, because Aragorn says I did everything I could, we all did. He said this was what he feared from the start, alas but he spoke true. Gimili blames one of the mountains, shaking his fist at it, saying only if Caradhras had been less cruel. I look around again and I see Sam has a cut on his head. I don’t know where he got that, but I can heal it… I go over to Sam and focus healing energy on the injury and it closes up quickly. I’m not sure if he even notices, he is currently lost in his grief. I look around, but no one else looks injured. Aragorn says if I’m willing to stay around, they could use the extra help now. I tell him I can’t stay constantly, but I’ll be back if I’m needed. Everything around me fades to black and I wake up.
School and FA Vague memory of Asuka bringing me into a school again. We are going in and out of rooms looking for Something... Not sure what. FA, I'm in a bed in the school on a landing by some stairs? My cousin hops on to the bed in PJs and he is complaining about his feet. He pulls out a pitcher of water and pours water all over his feet, and the bed. I morph in a Jamaican woman and say in a bitchy voice, "Did you just pour water on your feet?" My memory fades here. Lost Puppy I'm walking down a street in a suburban area and notice a seemingly empty shopping bag moving around. Ok, just the wind... but then it crawls. I reach down and open it and see there's a small black puppy who looks lost and hungry. I pick up the bag and it pops it's head out a hole in the bag. I turn around and head back towards my house. After a few minutes of walking I reach my house. Some people approach me and ask me what I'm doing with an empty bag? I said found a sick puppy in there. Someone inspects it and it is empty and they look at me like I'm crazy. I turn around to look for the puppy again. I find some very large cats circling the scared puppy. I shoo them off and pick him up and head back home. Same room I am in a strange house with some stoner type guys. A blond woman is also there. for some reason I go to use their washroom and find a room with a couch and then a toilet beside it. I go back to the group and they say we are going to some other guys room to smoke up. We go in a different door and enter the same room with a couch and a toilet... okay. I get confused and leave the room and go back to the bathroom. I find the same room with a couch and a toilet but no one is in there. I go in the hall way and open another door and find the same room with a couch and a toilet. Everyone walks out of their room and back into the main living room. "Why do you guys have 3 identical rooms?" The guys shrug and the blonde woman laughs and says, "I know right this house is so confusing!"

I was at a fancy nighttime dinner party when I became lucid. I put my hand behind my back to summon a young lady that I like. I tried to make out with her but she pushed me away said she didn't want to make out. I asked her if she would be in a better mood to make out tomorrow night and she said she would. I asked her for a kiss before I left and she gave me one. I asked her for another kiss before a left and she gave me another one. I left to fly around and check out the scenery. I failed to become lucid the next night. The next time I became lucid and tried to summon her, I summoned a grumpy old lady. The next time I became lucid and tried to summon her, I summoned a young man. Bleah! I asked him why he wasn't who I wanted and he said because women have all the fun so I should give men a chance. No. The next time I became lucid and tried to summon her, I summoned a different young lady that I like. I decided to try to make out with her but she kept her distance from me. I said I want to be closer to you. She says why. I say because I never get to do this when I'm awake. She says aww and allows me to make out with her. The young lady I was trying to summon finally appeared then approached us. Another young lady I liked also approached us. I got hugs and kisses from all 3 young ladies at once. I finally felt the sexy feeling I was seeking.
Last night, bed 10:30pm. Took a long 2-3 hr nap in the afternoon, till 5-6pm or so. 3;05am - 2x300 Alpha GPC 4:37 - up for WBTB 5:08 - 2x4 mgs Galantamine and sofa time Had a long lucid, estimate 45+ min. Woke up after 8am. I got a head rush quite fast, wasn't sure I will be able to fall asleep to coincide with that. But I guess I did. Had a strong headrush and falling backwards sensation, at least 3 times throughout the 45+ min experience. Had an awesome beginning of a lucid, but all I remember is how incredibly happy I was, grinning from ear to ear. Have no clue what I did, but remember thinking "this is good, or finally", or something to that effect. Anyway, i love that exhilarating feeling. I started with trying to rotate my dream body as I normally do, and added some hand and leg movements. I spent most of the dream outside, walking through large cities. 1. Modern city, skyscrapers, tons of DCs on sidewalks. There was a plot. Some huge monster was coming and people were running. I decided to spin to change the dreamscape. I actually pulled it off and got to another city. 2. Second, even more modern city. I think here I tried the April TOTM - point at a DC, yelling Abracadabra and see what happens. I did this to at least 8 different DCs. I remember the last one. Businessman walking fast with a clipboard under his arm. As I yelled and pointed at him, he stopped, gave me a quizzical look and kept walking. Couple times I remember thinking "what is gonna happen to them?", but nothing happened. They all stayed the same and went on with their business. I wondered if I am suppose to do some magic, but I figured it's the spell that's suppose to do it. 3. Trying to fly up to the space, but not having any luck. Looking for a spaceship to take me there. No luck. 4. Getting up to the skies, but not too high. Trying to see the stars, it took them a while to show up in full beauty. 5. Came up to a group of young people on the floor. They said in their culture, there is only s*cking. I told them we also do f*cking. They seemed intrigued. 6. Jumping, gradually higher and bigger distances. Didn't jump over a building yet. 7. There was this girl and for some reason I kissed her. She kept her mouth shut and I was ok with that. Then I though wait a minute, no, and let my tongue loose. It felt incredibly real. I have to remember to stop and retell myself previous parts of a dream, so I remember it at the end.

One of my major lucid goals down the line is to live out three books I have been working on. I guess that goal may come early. All I did was meditate during a WBTB period then try to fall asleep whilst attempting to stare through my eyelids. I had a hard time falling asleep and I needed to be again for work in an hour so I gave up the attempt and let myself fall asleep. The process of doing so let a flood of thoughts come on. Instead of fighting them or trying to control them I just began daydreaming about the first chapter of the first book of my series. Lo and behold a lucid dream of me ACTUALLY LIVING OUT the story occurred. It was really short but I was intensely happy with the results. Going to see if I can daydream my way into another dream tomorrow. My lucid dreaming ability - although not much - is getting me really excited.
serious fragmentation here but I'll list it. I found myself outside of a halloween party, not knowing who the hosts were. It was on the top floor of a four story apartment building, and it appeared to me that the party was insanely good. I waited for a bit but I knew I wouldn't get in so I just went to the one in the basement of the building which was a bar. I met a bunch of celebrities and specifically childish gambinos girlfriend. I got too drunk so she took me back to her place to let me crash but I kept exploring it because it was just massive and there were like 20 people living there. I'm on the highway in a stolen muscle car. I think it's a barracuda. I start just absolutely flooring it and weaving between traffic. The inertia is insane, and I love every second. Driving up the shoulder at 100 MPH. I got to a gas station and parked, and tried riding a boosted board around but I couldn't get the balance. I returned to the car to find my actual car parked at the gas station with a huge ticket. i didn't pay. Later in the dream I got a $160 ticket for parking outside of that party. Best part of the dream was when I was with gramma and poppa in a convertible 67 stingray and poppa ripped it full speed past a massive crime scene so the cops had to stop chasing us to hit the scene.
My girlfriend and I are going through a rough patch and I feel completely lost, without knowing how to solve it and as a result I am feeling a lot of anxiety. We haven't been in person for about a month and a half and she's been acting different for about 2 weeks, and she got mad at me for asking her about it and for trying to talk to her while she ignored me, claiming afterwards that I was being too controlling. Monday she told me that even though she still loves me that she's not ready to forgive me and that I shouldn't doubt her word, which I already had done twice. She still hasn't forgive me since. Last night I was feeling so bad I broke my habit of going to sleep at around 4 a.m. to go to bed at around 10 p.m. Only at around 11 p.m. did I fall asleep. I dreamed that I was on a large street that I recognize from the city where I study and I heard news of my gf being run over, and I became a mess, I was actually angry at the world and already expecting the worst. I stayed in this state for what it felt like about 15 minutes before I got a call from somebody unknown as I got to an intersection (that I still recognize as being from that same street) where there was a traffic jam and little square pieces were on the floor. 6 of them, making my mind reading a shape of a V on top of an upside down V making a shape like XX. That person who called me reassured me that even though she was in bad shape, everything was expected to be alright, and he was coming to pick me up (at this point, the scenery changed to something I don't recognize, with more narrow streets) as he was arriving he told me he was Turkish and that was glad to meet his "crush's other crush". As he appears, he takes me by foot along the streets, singing some crappy song made on the spot. I woke up before we even got to the hospital and I don't even remember what he looked like. I woke up at half past midnight, and I wrote down what I remembered from the dream. I put the DJ away at around 20 minutes to 1 a.m. but it'd take a while before I had some resemblance of sleep again. The remainder of the night was made of a series of vague dreams with dark themes, involving stories with drownings, death and suffering in general, and even some things about Rick and Morty, as I had the night before. Those were the kinds of dreams you have when you have a fever, when you end up not sure if you were really asleep or with some vivid imagination. Problem is, I have no fever. I woke up at 7 a.m for the first time, but I did my best to keep sleeping until 11 a.m, at which point I got out of bed. It's around 20 minutes past noon as I'm writing this.

I am in an abandoned depeartment store. I appear to be quite high up, juding from the view out the windows. Laying on top of a large bare wood shelving unit I hide from other people as they scour the store. Eventually they leave but I remain and several weeks later am still there. All is still and quiet, everyone has left the town. I have a store of milk cartons and some tins of stuff to eat, though they are like large paint tins. No one has found them. The milk has been radiated by some nuclear fallout type thing and so does not go off, its just watery. A small girl arrives (rl Victoria) I show her where the food is. She wants to go outside as there are large fluffy flakes of snow coming down outside. I search among the loads of strewns shoes and find her a pair, and get a brand new pair of lace up black doctor martins for me. We set off.
Morning of April 6, 2017. Thursday. For a short time, it seems that I may be at some sort of lecture (with an unknown backstory). The one talking is the Temperance Brennan character from the “Bones” television series. She is wearing a white lab coat. Curiously, there is a wall halfway to the left side of the scene where she seems to sometimes speak from behind it at an angle. She leans out and mentions something about “flying colors” (in a serious tone) which I perceive as an important phrase. A female cartoon character, who vaguely reminds me of a Peanuts comic strip character in overall appearance (though not any specific one), jumps up to the left and yells “Ee-glah!” at her. Temperance Brennan backs up in surprise and annoyance to go back behind the wall. Directly after waking, I am thinking that “flying colors” is not really a common expression as first perceived and that my dream was just generating gibberish. However, looking it up, I remember that “with flying colors” means “with great success”, though I do not recall hearing it much. Last checked and enhanced Tuesday, 25 July 2017: On “failed flight waking symbolism”, I have repeatedly stated that waking symbolism of this type, being inherent to the real-time dynamics of the dream state, is unrelated to the conscious self and real life for the most part. Despite the fact that the preconscious initiates the waking transition by saying something about “flying colors”, which means “with great success", the emergent consciousness factor (as a cartoon) forces her back behind the wall (which relates to metaphorical divisions of consciousness). It may seem contrary or contradictory to use “with great success” with a negative phrase such as “failed flight”, but in this scene, it is how it is rendered in the context of my dream and actually implies success (or otherwise I would not have awakened, get the picture?).
