I remembered this later on. DREAM fragment: We are establishing a family business and they are deciding who from the outside will be part of it. I'm worried if I will be included and I ask them about it. I think the answer was "yes".
Couldn't recall anything again.
I am jumping from a tall iron bridge into a clear, cold river. It is in the middle of winter. There are many other people swimming in the river. This is part of a school assignment and there are military personnel who are also involved. I hold my breath and dive deep down into the transparent water. I swim under water a great distance, watching the other swimmers as they kick their legs and doggy-paddle and tread water above me. The water is perfectly clear, like swimming in a pool of pure drinking water. When I finally surface, I let out, "Wow! This water is cold!" The water is very cold, yet it is most invigorating and wonderful. I am very happy to be in the water. I wonder how I am able to swim in water of this temperature; I normally would be quite reluctant to jump into a freezing river. I go from the river to an school office where suddenly I am standing before a black lady who looks like she is part of the adjunct staff. She asks if me I'd like some coffee. Looking over some paperwork, she says I did great, and then shows me my schedule. Every Monday and Tuesday I will have to meet a woman named "Nancy" (this is an actual lady I know from WL, one of my old customers) at a restaurant to go over my progress. These meetings with Nancy are mandatory. It slowly becomes clear to me that I am at an interview in which I am being considered for acceptance at this school. The black woman tells me she still has seven more applicants to interview. Recall fades. Dreamt 1/22/2017
COMMENTARY NON-LUCID DREAM LUCID DREAM Asleep: 12:00 WBTB: 5:30, sometime before 8:00, 8:00 Awake: 8:16 Dreams: 1 + a small fragment Lucids: 1 1. I am woken up at 5:30 by T's work alarm. I feel myself "come up" out of a dream and all I can grab hold of/remember is this: Man speaking: "I encourage you to seek validation..." 2. I am leaving a food/smoothie shop with 3 friends. Myself and 3 others get in a car. At first, Ryan is driving. But then it turns out Gabe is driving. Both are friends of mine from college. The parking spot that we are in is small and there must be cars close behind us. Gabe pulls out and has to pull forward again to try to turn out of the space. He has a small car, and he gets VERY close to the car in front of us. We all tell him he's going to hit the other car but he tries to pull even closer and ends up hitting the car. I thought he was going to drive off but he parks and walks inside. He comes out with several pink slips of paper and makes us get out and write down what possessions we have in our pockets for when the police come to write up a report? I decide this is taking too long and decide to call an uber. I try to look up where I'm going and I remember an uber is going to be 75 cents, but I don't remember where I was going. I think it was a zoo but not 100%. I thought about how I had to get home soon so I could "go back to sleep because it was almost time to wake up". (Note, the night before I had no recall so recall was on my mind) 3. The start of this dream is fragmented in memory. I remember one of my co-workers talking with someone although not in a work context. They are both stationed by computers at a desk. He is talking to the other person about sharing information with his own mother? (Memory blank) I dreamed I was lying bed, experiencing sleep paralysis. And somehow, I'm communicating with this co-worker and the other person. They help people have lucid dreams? In my dream I experienced sleep paralysis and told them as much. Then I laid back down and experienced SP again. This time, I tried to "raise my dream hand" to do a nose pinch RC. I thought I was raising my "waking hand". But, I was able to breathe through my plugged nose! I became lucid! At this point, I forgot all about my co-worker. I was my normal bed room. It was bright like there was light being let in through the window. I remember thinking it would be bad if I thought I was lucid dreaming and tried to jump out of a window only for it to be real so I did another nose-plug RC and looked at my hands. The nose RC worked again and my hands were translucent up to the fingertips. I stayed calm and checked out my surroundings. The room was realistic and detailed. After a moment, I woke up. My last two lucid moments ended the second I became lucid. This time, I remained in the dream for a little while. It was a dream about dreaming, but I believe I actually became lucid because when I woke up there was no "pause of consciousness" and I was very conscious of having just been in a lucid dream. The funny thing is, my alarm went off at 8. I debated just getting up but I decided to go back to sleep because I wanted to recall at least 1 more dream. And I woke up at 8:16 having just had a lucid dream!
This was different for me. This was me watching from above and it was my dad and I when I got my first (very old clunker) car and my dad helped me sand and fill the holes in my car before painting it. That was a very exciting memory for me, only this made it feel more important since my father passed away a few years later and this memory was from over 35 years ago. He was showing me how to test the air, check the oil, etc. I was watching and very happy that I appreciated every moment the way I should have. I was so very proud of that old car and it looked so beautiful in royal blue. My dad was also very proud of the car. I think that is my favorite memory of childhood.
Crazy late to bed again, binge watched "The OA" from start to finish yesterday. Looks like some day residue in the dreams from that. Have to stop doing that. Woke with recall of what felt like one dream with a lot of scenes in it, about 6hrs. Maybe try BTS but it's pretty late in the day already. These scenes all seem to take place in a single location, in/around some house: + There is a girl pacing the (2nd floor?) hallways of some house and she's trying to breathe fire like a dragon. She's taking big breaths and expelling them out with dramatic gestures and loud hissing sounds, leaning her head and back far forwards while doing so. I and some other guy are following her around, I'm sure if she just keeps doing this she'll actually breathe fire, but I never see any fire appear. Then I see a burning/smoldering spot on the floor, and I and this other guy are running to get a fire extinguisher. I want to find the extinguisher first. I'm going to get a "<something, some term>" which is a super-soaker (kids play water rifle)-like plunger and fill it with water at the reservoirs of water built into the ground. I open the reservoir on the right but I see stuff floating in there and I think someone has used it for a toilet and that it's poop in there so I close the lid and flush it. I open the lid to the left reservoir, then I go back to the right one, stick the device in there and pull back the plunger to draw up the water. I walk over to the fire and push the plunger to put out the fire. I expect to see a strong stream of water but instead I get a wide-angled spray of fine mist. Also some chunks of what looks like gray cooked ground meat land on the floor, and I hope it's not poop. My work colleague (ChDo of "3d") has taken my collection of colorful felt pens and mixed them in with his own. I'm taking my pens back. I'm sifting through the large pile of pens and picking mine out and taking them. Mine are the slender ones with the long white covering tips with handles colored the same as the ink color of the pen. I take back several different-colored ones, the colors are like light pastel. I'm then standing at a (white board?) with a tangled pile of white children's slot and tab sculpture discs all stuck together, it's a fairly large pile. I'm standing outside and there are 3 ambulances being loaded (with kids?). There is one regular bus and two official ambulances. One of the ambulances loses traction on the ice and the back wheels slide out in an arc, then the whole thing slowly starts tipping and falls onto its left side. I'm shouting "NO!" and run over to open the doors and help the kids out. I tell them to be calm while this is happening. I think the non-ambulance bus was the best one. Something about an animal or thing on a fence nearby? I notice there are 4-6 titan-sized massive giants dressed in sleek black armor coming to attack us. Walking through the upper floor and a guy I "recognize" [FALSE] as a (former enemy?) someone who shouldn't be here is coming back in for some reason. Standing by the edge of a pool with food, there is a tray of food I see down on the bottom of the pool about 10 feet deep by the edge, it was put there for storage? I dive down to get it but wonder about if it's spoiled, thinking the cool temperature of the water may have preserved it.
Last night, bed at 6:50am I took 3x 15 mg (6%) L-dopa at time of bed Had lots of dreams, but I had that for the last week or so. So can't tell it was because of L-dopa. DREAM at 9:03pm Something about group called Dreamers Against Trump. DREAM 11pm Paying for photo ops Driving heavy truck DREAM 3:15am I'm in a basement of a 1-2 story house. Looking out the small window with 2 kids, boy and a girl. There is some work being done outside. A bulldozer is pushing ground near the house and somehow he pushes a huge pile of dirt too close to the house. It makes the corner buckle and shift and a metal bars above the window come down. Just before it did, I yelled at the kids to get out. It I didn't, they would have been killed. I'm outside yelling at the operator what the heck did he do, being so careless. Then I'm on a street in Latin America, sitting in the middle of the road in a residential neighborhood. People walking around, kids playing and sitting around. I figure if I want to be friends with them, I should attempt to get to know them and talk. So I ask a girl sitting near me what's her name. Julia, she says. And she cuddles with me. (my grandma just passed away and her name is Julia).
I've been very busy IRL & had 2 of my grandkids all weekend so I've been rather busy & then I had to sleep a lot Monday & Tuesday because I pushed myself too hard this weekend. But I did have a whole lot of fun! Not much by way of dreams due to my pain meds. ***I was living in a cabin in the woods. I'm asleep & think Mike is in the room but instead it's my mom. She said she just dropped by cuz her & my dad were driving through in their RV. I told her I could make her some coffee & I looked into the refrigerator to find something to feed her. I said "hey, there is some beer in here if you want some." I say this half talking to myself & become lucid because Mike & I don't drink alcohol. There wouldn't be beer anywhere we would be staying. I say out loud "we don't drink anymore". I then notice that the fridge is almost bare & the food looks old. Almost in shock I look up on the top shelf & then lean into the fridge because I see there is no "top" of the fridge & I only see the cabinets above it. She tells me she is going into town for food. I'm still contemplating the fridge, kind of in awe. I laugh because I'm thinking, "well isn't this a strange dream!" I realize she is still talking as she leaves & adds "dad is out off doing something" just as I am wondering where he is. I go out the sliding door & I'm on a deck looking out & see a huge tree. I walk down & look at it in wonder. I know it's the magical tree from the book I'm reading. This is so cool!! I then look to the right of the tree & there is a limo. I open the door & my mom is sitting in the back seat behind the drivers side putting her feet up on the back of the passenger seat. I start laughing because I just saw a woman do this in a show I watched & my mom is all slim now like she was when I was a kid. I got woke up by Meesha Cat so I'm disappointed that I didn't get to play w/ the magic tree! **I was w/ a group of gypsies. I've been watching a series w/ gypsies & werewolves. I am in a kitchen sorting plants so that we don't eat the poisonous ones. The man in charge gives me a compliment & said "Now that's how people should be." He was talking about me caring about others & not just myself. **I was in a school where ppl were turning into dust after they ad found ways to invest money to make money to sustain an income instead of working. This was to free up time to enjoy life. They were sharing in detail how to do this but I couldn't catch all of how to do that. I had come in toward the end of the conversation. The leader & his followers would turn back to dust afterwards. Apparently this happened often here. I walked around the school inside & outside when they appeared out of thin air again. But unfortunately Meesha Cat woke me up.
Nothing recalled this night.
the first half of this dream was really messed up. But at one point I was running and trying to catch up to chris. I was getting that molasses run we all get, and started thinking "this only happens in my dreams." Well it was a dream. Before bed I set an agenda for my dream and step 1 was slowly count all 10 fingers. That worked great, but then it all went black and I went off into half waking.
Asleep: 12:15 WBTB: 3:30, 5:30 Awake: 8:00 Tech: MILD, WBTB + MILD Dreams: 0 Lucids: 0 No recall from tonight. I slept through my 6:30 alarm so I must have been sleeping deeply. I woke up at 3:30 to use the restroom and at 5:30 when T got up for work and did not remember anything.

1. We had a GIS class at a nature center and everything seemed so real that I never got lucid. My dreams are becoming so realistic and stable that it is seems more difficult to notice things that are off. This dream was super long. There was a bus taking people to the nature center but one of the guys needed to get his water shoes that he forgot, so I went with him to show him where to buy them and then we met at the nature center.(that in itself was long because the guy is hard of hearing so I had to keep repeating myself the whole time). We had to park our car in this large lot and got a ticket to put on the car, very realistic. I even saw the white ticket with writing on it that had our lot location B. We made our way up escalators and through a long building with different turns to get to the location where we met everyone. We had a short class on gps units that we were going to use. These units weren't the yellow ones I have seen before, they were red and tiny. I had a hard time seeing the screen. We had to buddy up and I didn't want the deaf guy, but I couldn't get rid of him (pretty typical). We had to go into the water and it was pretty scary because there are alligators. They said don't worry just shuffle your feet. We were in the mangroves and had to find markers they set to gps and between the guy who couldn't hear and my not being able to see the screen we made a horrible team. I felt like we got nowhere. I was embarrassed to see how poorly we did. When we turned down to go down the next area of mangroves they turned us around because they found a body and they had to call it in. We had to shuffle back and get out of the water and pretty much that was where they sent us to free lunch and said we could go home. They apologized and off we went. We ate fruit, wraps and brownies, then everyone in all of the classes left at the same time. It was chaos. I wanted to go back with everyone but because I didn't have a bus ticket, I was not allowed on the bus. I had to go back in the car with the deaf guy. We walked and walked trying to find where the parking lot was. It was an adventure in itself because we both were out of our comfort zone. Everything seemed so drawn out like 1 step forward 3 steps back kind of dream. It was a very long ride back and woke up. This is the second work event with a drowned person.
In bed from about 1am-1:30am to 9am at bedtime set intention to recall dreams, prepared my smart phone on the recording app (but didn't use it), set intention for remembering dreams in high detail, from beginning to end. Noticed the 5 hour waking (verified on the clock). Several back to sleeps including a micro-WBTB attempt at the 5 hour waking. + crossing the river, boat, concerned about dropping my only set of house keys in to the water, I hold them in my hand. Waiting for a boat to cross, I realize I'm sitting in one so I can just ferry my stuff across myself and I go across. I get out and my swim trunks are wet, I go into a house the rooms are smaller than I expected, I go through a kitchen to a laundry room there is a living room through a door to the laundry room (with sliding glass door [DS]?). I know a girl who lives in this house, she is outside a window but her mom comes home and I don't want her to see me like this [DS] so I'm trying and trying to pull on some pants up over my wet swim trunks, I wonder if the pants will fit or not (large swim trunks). I'm trying to stay out of view of the mom in the kitchen I'm sure she'll see me any moment. I finally get the pants up to my waits and button them (kind of rainbow colorful jeans?) and the dream ends. + I climb down into a sort of canal with no way out, the sides are tall (yellow colored?) concrete with a lip/edge about 8 feet up. I wonder if I can get out. There are people walking along the far edge. I think that if I take a running start I can "run up the wall" for a few steps (it's inclined slightly, not 100% vertical) and grab for the lip of the edge at the top. I make a half-hearted attempt but I'm not really interested in getting out so I just walk further down the canal... + I'm playing softball on a proper field, I'm at first base and I look down to position my left foot so that it is contacting the plate and I can stretch out my hand for the shortstop's throw. I think about how I wore cleats when I played softball back in college. There is a play with a runner rounding the bases and my team keeps missing the throws. I head for home and get the ball and tag a runner out. Everyone is now in center field and I move there and say "oh, so we're playing in center field now?" There is a man and woman there they are both very attractive and either topless or wearing a very revealing top. I notice stubble in the woman's armpits and also on her chest, like on the chest of the man, I'm a bit thrown off by this. (felt like waking memory I'm holding my baseball glove on my hand and flexing it (opening closing) and inspecting it. I'm talking with some kids about oiling and conditioning baseball gloves, and I'm showing them how my glove looks and saying "yeah this is the way to do it." +(f) I'm with JoTy (3d) (and his wife), at some point I feel the back of his head through his hair and his head is really pointy at the back and I "remember" [FALSE] oh yeah that's right he has a pointy head like that. + in some house/atrium with a girl, go into a standing 69 (she's doing all the work) walk outside to the front gate like this and there's a guy standing in his garage across the street, I'm a bit concerned he'll see us [DS] so I turn back inside... + I'm reading some printed paper versions of an online forum. All the posts are about me. Someone has managed to piece together from tiny my real life name from tiny pieces of information I've written about over time (like initials, etc.). I'm really wondering how they did it. I'm quite concerned. The posts are all critical. + I'm looking at a little mouse/hamster house where emaciated black mice are running around. One fat large hamster is sort of stuck in an outer hole (and I help push it back in?). +(f) I'm climbing down on to a deck where my parents are. The stairs are very shallow. Something about what I'm eating? + I'm with one of my kids' childhood friends who was quite pudgy when younger. I offer to go get him a waffle, he enthusiastically accepts, I go to pick one up for him and wipe it in a plate of syrup, and pick up one for myself and take some bites from it as I walk back to him. I'm thinking he probably shouldn't eat this since he's already overweight. I walk by a table of guys looking at me and give them a flippant explanation about my own waffle that I'm eating as I walk by and sort of wave the waffle at them (?)
I become lucid. I fly into the night sky and find my solar system. I fly through it and find a new body. In fact, it was a star, a red dwarf! I wake up. I become lucid. I want to bring someone to talk to along the flight, so quickly take my 'sister' with me. We fly down out the window. I think "Wow, so vivid"" I then consider "do I think it is vivid, because my memory of real life is poor, or when I wake up, I remember the dream as not very vivid?" I mull over it, but quickly get back to action. I find a book called 'Secrets" and open it... I find a page about shamanic people devoted to lucid dreaming. They are called "Greenworld Shamans" In fact, they only exist in the dreamworld now. They are an African people, who's favorite environment is a beautiful starry night. I become lucid again, but quickly wake up. PHEW!

I had a false awakening in which a couple women were in the next room and my bed was in full view. I get up and go in to see them. It is my D.G. and the other person is no longer there. I have fairly deep feelings for this entity and she is far more understanding than either of my prior guides. She wants me to come with her. We go into the next room and she has a bath running. She is now nude and in fairly high definition. She is not acting provocative; she is just checking the water. I know that my biggest short coming in my dreaming is getting distracted by sexual things. I think she is seeing if I can control myself. I decide that trying to touch her would be the wrong thing, and I know she wants to help me. I get into the bath. She is still standing. She is so beautiful. I want to tell her how I am feeling, but worry anything I say will seem sexual. I timidly say what seems safe, " You look very cute." She seems pleased and amused by my choice of words. She smiles and leans over me bringing her face very close. We share a tiny sweet very brief close mouthed kiss. She sweetly says, "I will see you tomorrow morning." A second after this my alarm goes off.
