28-Jan-2017 - ND: E-mail picture + fragments +WILD Bad sleep this night due to my daughter sleeping in our bed ND: I am in my office, on the monitor I open the picture of a F colleague ducking to talk to a child, but exposing her underwear I prepare a mail attaching the picture, sending it to her, but also to many more people, message body contains some advise about taking more care in the future when greeting children Two M colleagues, L and N, come in, look out of the window. N tells me, you sending also to L? Why ? I provide some kind of explanation to both View shifts to another office (!), A is close to me, we discuss about something, then I review e-mail distribution list, who is incredibly long, I remove some French people with long names, then I send Something about me being kinda too close with A, with my feet touching hers Fragment: The screen covering glass of my phone is cracked, and looking better also the screen is broken in a point, I am upset WILD: (~7 AM) I see a white paper with many strange black characters, few are red. I observe them for a bit. Another longer section I forgot
This dream was very creativity oriented. Felicia Day was visiting at a house/apartment where Peg and I lived. I asked her if she could recommend any good new video games to play. I mentioned that Peg was becoming bored with World of Warcraft. Felicia answered, “Oh anything.” Which I did not find helpful and which made me feel less connected with her, like she was aloof. The three of us were sitting on a big white couch watching something on TV. I was sitting in the middle. At one point Felicia re-positioned herself so that her head was resting on my knee. This made me feel more connected with her. But I was concerned that Peg would thing she was being overly familiar with her husband. Felicia shared that she had been feeling creatively blocked. I suggested that she tear up slips of paper, write down names of things on half of them and musical styles on the other half. Then pick one slip randomly from each half. This would produce results like ketchup and reggae. Then she should go and make herself write a song about ketchup in a reggae style. I think she liked the idea. I started considering using the idea myself. Then I was experimenting with art techniques like using static electricity to create patterns of strands of hair or fabric on a canvas. And I was walking through an art gallery where the paintings were large soft pastel-ish caricatures of rock musicians and I was thinking about doing a painting in a similar style.
All non lucid - I attend a drive in mass. There is a choir of very low bass codes that chants "oh Rihanna" (I guess that osannah is old fashioned nowadays). This causes an earthquake that moves the land all around the desertic field where the drive in mass to place. (Eh?) - I'm attending a course where I like a woman. In the course there are other three women, and I have sex with all of them. Then I let this know to the one I'm interested and add that I want to have sex also with her. - I'm in vacation with my girlfriend in a place at the borders from the Netherlands and Portugal (eh??). The people look Portuguese but generally speak Dutch. The place is corrupted and the streets very dangerous. While I wait for my girlfriend to order food, I hang out with a big blue Teddy bear. He wants to explore the area but he cannot fly. Fortunately he has telekinesis and can see through the eyes of other creatures so he uses a bit as a drone. I finally decide that I am too hungry to further wait for my girlfriend so I other a six courses menu for two people. All regular right?
I only remembered a tiny bit from last night. Dream Fragment 1: There was a guy who played clarinet with the rest of us (I'm in the university band at my school, and we had rehearsal yesterday, so). Also a note that I couldn't read. Dream Fragment 2: Something involving a snake. My notes were rather lacking last night. :') And now I'm off to sleep for night 13!
01-24-17 DILD I was minorly lucid just messing around enjoying when an ah ha moment happened and I knew I was fully lucid. I could remember the competition clearly and planned on doing many tasks quickly. However, a large window opened up in the side of the room and out there was a mountain and trees. I turned and flew through the portal and every thing blurred and the came back. I was under the influence of gravity, which is a warning sign for me that I have crossed over to as astral realm. There is a crowd of non-DC entities in a field and some gesture for me to come over. I landed by them and they told me they are playing a game and how would I like to help them? Sorry DV friends, the comp moved to a very back burner. They are friendly entities that I think I have met many times, but I can not tell most of them apart. They had groups of five and I joined the group to make 5. The goal was to get your team to the top of a mountain first then to reach some goal up there. I do not think I understood the rules, as I am often pretty confused during these meeting, although the entities are much more understanding now. So, in my dorky way of dealing with things ion LDs I start out. I simply lift the other 4 members in a web of mass-TK and the race up the mountain at lightning speed. Before long we have reached an opening and go inside. We are inside what looks like a bunker with something in the middle like a thick column and a wooden door across the room. One of the entities say "we need to talk." I ask them how we win the race, and someone says we just go through that door. I hear another team is coming, and am anxious to go through the door, but it is looked. They are all standing around me know. They say, "We have been watching you for awhile. We have decide to ask you to become part of our clan." Hear is the problem. I take this stuff seriously and realize I am about as aware here as a third grader. I told them, "I am nervous to commit to anything I do not understand. I do not know if you are a good clan, if your clan has enemies, and all sorts of issues like that." They told me to look in my hand. I see know we all are holding a large sliver of wood with something written on it. It seemed significant but I do not know why. They seemed irritable but not angry. Another team is in the room now and goes out the door. These guys just keep staring at me. I was suddenly propelled into normal half aware HH stuff.
I'm running at high speed (about that of a horse) along a large field, as I realize I'm dreaming. The landscape's really nice, but I keep running up the incline to a pass in the hills/mountain. I reach the pass, and see another valley on the other side, which is apparently where I had been heading (though I forget what the mission was--I think it may have just been finding a peacable place outside the range of influence of some enemy in the area). However, I look around and see the small figure of a knight on his horse in the distance, down in the valley. I turn to the right and try to evade him, but he ends up seeing me, and comes up to fight/block me. I believe I manage to escape him without any serious combat, and then continue on my mission as I lose lucidity. ========== There was another lucid here, but I won't count it for the comp, as all I remember (besides some other more abstract memories) is that: * It was longer than the above one. * It involved a friend's family, as well as some sort of government/authority figure which was visiting. * Part of it occurred inside a restaurant. * Part of it occurred at night outside at our college campus. [I wake up, and turn off my speaker, but a minute or so later, realize I'm still very close to sleep, so I stay still and try for a re-entry.] ========== Non-lucid dream with me playing a game like Donkey Kong Country on a gameboy-like device, and then after that considering playing a board game with my siblings, with my brother-in-law driving a full-size open-top car around our living room as an alternative to walking around it! (the game required accessing all areas of the board) ========== Realize I'm in-dream again! See that I'm in a large gathering of people in an upper story of a barn-like building--actually, like on a deck of a ship in that barn. A friend is getting rowdy toward the corner, and I warn them to be careful, otherwise... that happens (a similar thing had happened in an earlier dream). They break the brace for that corner, and the platform starts falling to the floor there. I see it's not that far to the ground, and yell to people that they can jump down if they want--or wait till a better path is made. (others I know from wl are doing so) I walk around the frame of the upper story/ship platform, but have to jump up shortly to pass a tight spot. Someone gets mad, saying I shouldn't obstruct the path, so I quickly keep going, and finally drop on the side near the exit. I try to think of what to do next, but I had apparently disturbed some bees in a section of the path (I heard them buzz when I fell over one part), and see that one had followed me. I get annoyed, and though remembering it a dream, still don't want it to buzz me. I try swatting it away, with limited success, and then transition (sadly) to a false-awakening. I have one of those false-awakenings where I think part of my dream has been recorded automatically... in fact it had, as confirmed as I read it on my computer screen (and started making real formatting edits to), but of course only in-dream. Got annoyed when I awoke for real about a minute later, and realized I'd have to rewrite that text.
I had a lot of amazing dreams last night... but I forgot them almost as soon as I woke. I recall only tidbits: In one dream, I was pregnant and excited about it, but someone shoved a knife between my legs repeatedly to give me an abortion (I had that dream thanks to having a pro-life/pro-choice convo with my daughter and then seeing a news headline about an abortion survivor speaking out before Congress) In another dream, I was stuck in a dream loop, changing history over and over again until I could get it right (probably inspired by "Under the Dome" which I've been binge watching). I was flying in another dream and that's the one I wish I could recall most of all. I love flying dreams. Yet another dream was, of course, zombies I haven't even been playing 7D2D lately. My son says it's withdrawal but I have the dreams even more when I do play my game I enjoy them, though, so I'm not complaining. Fitbit: It's been very bugged lately. I even manually changed it, but it just changed itself back. It *says* I was asleep at 1:19AM (it was really 2:30AM ) and that I woke at 1:25PM (it was really 2PM) But going on what it says, I was restless 15 times for 2 hrs 48 minutes which means I got 9 hrs 18 minutes worth of sleep.
26-01-2017 Nothing recalled. 27-01-2017 The exam I was in school, just about to take an important exam. There were several prepared seats where one could take a registry and start counting and writing. There were many people, interrupting participants in writing, taking pictures. I took the registry and started writing random numbers in it.
26-Jan-2017 - ND: Training room 5AM WBTB, attempt WILD, fall asleep ND#1: I am in a meeting room, together with many collague, some I know R asks me to take this chance to give these people some short training on a subject I know well I tell yes, get up, introduce myself, start talking, stop due to noise in the room I continue, move to drawing board, sponge some writings away, use chalk Missed dreamsigns here (!!) : chalkboard isn't really used anymore, sponge doesn't perfectly clear some parts, chalk is quite clunky I write very small and not readable stuff After some talk, more noise, people open an internal window to an adjacent room with a tattoo shop (!!) Someone asks me a question on our products, I get angry at him (!!) because I cannot answer it properly, I even tell some bad words Later, it's dark, we decide it's time to break and perhaps continue another time __________________________ 27-Jan-2017 - WILD: Boat, dolphin ride, underwater city + 2ND Fragments ND#1: Playing Skyrim (fragm) I erupt flames from my hands I decapitate someone, I turn my monitor so my son cannot see, his bed is close to my PC (!!) A long scripted ending move, with my character moving through a long corridor before delivering a final hit ND#2: I am dressing up, someone opens a window in front of me,I think I may be visible from outside but not care much WILD#1: (5:45 AM) After much HI and some stabilization, I want to attempt dolphin TotY I am on a beach. I get on a small wooden boat (Minecraft-style) I use a paddle and sail to get in open sea I look at my body, I am wearing pull and jeans, think it's not appropriate for swimming, take some swimming boxers, remove my clothes, find I've the swimming boxers on I drop in the water and descend until I touch ground I find a giant stone statue's face, partially sunk in the sand, then another one, even bigger, with its mouth open I enter it, it's black inside, then it opens to a nice city with spires and towers At some point I think I am doing well for the task I shortly explore the city, walking on paved roads 6:30 work alarm rings, I think about the LD and notice I was wrong, I missed the dolphin ride part. I stay in bed, fall asleep again, WILDing WILD#2: (6:30 AM) I start in the boat again A dolphin approaches the boat, I observe its nose I mount on its back, in front of the dorsal fin. It swims above the water for a bit, then descends It finds the same underwater city. I get off its back, and after a short walk I meet a couple of mer-folks Their skin is green and they have fish-like bottom half, green-ish as well The guy has is chest naked, the girl has two shells covering her breast First thing I do is removing the shells, so I can look at her mermaid breast, which is green but nicely shaped Then I ask the guy how they have fun down here. He answers their sport is catching dolphins with a net View shifts a bit, the scenery behind him reminds me somehow of roman circus, although it's fading in the deep blue water The merman is in front of me, he gives a signal and from my left, a dolphin sprints towards my right I launch the fishnet I have in my hands, but it moves slower than I expect, and I miss the dolphin Another dolphin sprints, he launches his net and catches it at first try When it's my turn again, I time my launch better and this time catch the dolphin Wife calls, it's 6:45, I get up
Last night had some weird military focus. It's hard to remember exactly what happened, but I was a soldier, and some other soldier managed to fuck up something important while I was near it. I was in disbelief at this dude's idiocy (he blew SOMETHING up, I can't remember what it was), and then the nearest commanding officer spotted me near the thing and thought it was my fault. So then she chewed me out for a bit or hurt me or something. I didn't really care that I was getting the heat for it because the dude who'd actually done it had ran off and I didn't know his name or face, so it's not like I could've pointed them in the right direction. She got most of the rage out of her system and I rolled my shoulders and carried on. Easy.
In a large split office room, workers are crammed in chatting loudly. A voice comes over speaking telling us to shut the noise down. I am agitated as I didn't hear anything saying we couldnt speak. Apparently our company has been taken over by a big corporation and we are all being interviewed. Pretty well everybody files off into the next room, except me and two others one I recognise as an old lady mate and one as Anthony from work. Eventually we have to go to. I head off from the white office through some big darkened glass doors. I see loads of people being lined up to have a test. I see that people are being injected in their necks and operated on. They have four big chunks taken out of their necks at the front. I think hell no! and start to back off but hear that even if you don't want a job the operation is compulsory. The door I came through is now locked. With part adrenalin part powers I break the door open and get out of there. Finding myself outside in a street. I try to fly but can't for some reason, and so set off on foot. It is sunny day, with a clear blue sky and a townscape that feels American . I know people are coming after me and I head down one street but find all streets are shut off. Going through someone's house I find a back window and try and squeeze through. At this point officials bust through the door and an old lady their starts to blab on me, so I use a pressure point hold on her to knock her out. By now I am lucid, Getting out the front window just in time to see a long car pull up. I cross the road just as he is getting out. He pulls a long rifle or shotgun up and out as I try to fly, I crash into him and smash him into the car which crumples. I am flying at last and head up and over the town scape. Panic and teleport to my apartment. I hunt around for things to take with me. Soon enough I feel the people are closing in again.

I am talking to a guy in a bar who says he'll bump up my commissions to 65% if he ever becomes boss of my company. I pull out my iPad and show him the sweet deal I just closed. As he looks down at the contract, I look up and see my dead friend Don Wilson leaning against a far wall in the bar. Don died last September in an automobile accident. I forget the guy I am talking to and slowly walk over to my dead friend. As I do so, I realize that I am dreaming. This is a dream! Don was a funeral director and fellow embalmer I worked with for about 3 years. His death shocked everyone. He was only 45 years old. We were pretty close and got along very well. Seeing him, now, in this LD, was a very beautiful experience. This was by far the most vivid LD I had ever had. As I approached him, I focused intently on his skin, his hair -- and, in particular, on the individual salt-and-pepper strains. Everything was perfect; he was as crystal-clear and identical body-wise as he was IWL. I could even smell his aftershave. I saw him and he looked at me and smiled, then he looked back down. I said, "Don, this is a dream. We are dreaming." He continued to look down, smiling. I touched his arm. He was solid, warm, real. I said, "I am so sorry about what happened to you. We all really miss you. Your mom loves you so much...and so do I." I touched his arm again and he continued to look down and smile. I was in awe of how detailed he was. He looked fantastic. I was tempted to say, "Death becomes you, my friend" but did not. I just stared at his hair. The more I focused on it, the more vivid and brilliant the LD became. I rubbed my hands to ground myself in lucidity even more. I noticed the lights in the bar were starting to dim. I looked over my shoulder to see what was going on. Don did the same. When I looked back at Don, he was wearing a dark blue pullover sweater with a black zipper that went a quarter of the way down in the front. He wasn't wearing it before. Don was still looking inquisitively up as to why the lights were dimming, and he said with amusement, "Now I know what you mean about this being a dream..." As he said these words, I began to float. I didn't want to float away, but I couldn't stop it. I say to Don, "Look what we can do!" But he just stood there and watched me go up, slowly, like a helium balloon that was let go. My vision went dark as my head went through the ceiling, and I went into the attic. I looked down at my rising feet to see if Don was following me, but he wasn't. I was still looking down for Don when I suddenly heard my son in the TV room yell at his sister. His scream jolted me from the LD and I regained consciousness in my bed. I lay for about five minutes, processing it all. The realness of Don in the LD was so great that I found myself weeping as I poured my coffee. I earnestly thanked my subconscious for the experience, and found myself wishing that Don's mother and sister could have experienced the same. It was truly a miraculous experience.

Having fallen asleep on my front I suddenly hear nosies from the corner of the room. Then a great weight crushes me into the bed. My head is on one side and all I can see is blackness behind me but the rest of the room is visible. The weight eases off and I do a pinch nose RC. Things are still blurry. The darkness behind me has turned into AB, who is lying on my back, but not that heavy. I stand up and she clings on around my shoulders. Staggering around the room I find a half-filled bathtub of water with severed hands and feet floating in it. Urgh. The bathtub is in front of the window, so I have to climb over it to phase outside. Once outside I start flying. With AB on my back this is slower than normal, so I land and drop her off before starting to run through the street. I start thinking about LC tasks while running through alleyways of a city. Recalling the dragon TOTY I start to search for a castle and around the next corner is a great castle reaching up into the sky. I fly up over the castle for a better view, and summon a dragon, imagining it breaking free from the dungeons below the castle. Instead, an enormous winged shadow passes over the ground. People inside the castle look up in fear. The dragon circles around, unleashing flamethrower like breath to incinerate the castle's defenders. I fly down and sit on the dragon's back. It's head is covered in golden scales and the rest of it's body is read. Two large backwards facing horns are on it's head. We circle and unleash more fire before flying across the city. The motion of flying with wings is jerky and uneven. We head across the city, searching for another castle to destroy. Among the skyscrapers is a small keep with a large stone outer wall - in the middle of the tall modern buildings it looks out of place. The dragon is so large that it simply lands on the castle and the weight smashes it. We fly up and the castle has been reduced to rubble. I try to fly the dragon over a river that winds through the centre of the city, but the dream loses momentum and stalls. .

I was adjusting my sleep and got lucid during a nap. Another personal goal attempt. I should keep count. Would be interesting to know how many times I had to try before I succeeded. I'm with old friends on a trip to some far corners of Finland. We stop at some gas station that's selling all sort of stuff. There's a circular, wooden hot tub on sale. The thing is 10 cm deep and 50 cm across. I can hold it in my hand. I think my whole party of 6-8 people can fit in it easily, so it's size is a bit paradoxical. The tub has vihtas and a sauna stove. I buy the tub. I go back to my friends. They are in sauna, so I join them. It's not too hot. I tell them of my purchase. They like it. The sauna has rows of bunk beds with blue covers and my friends are resting on them while enjoying the heat. After sauna, people get dressed and get ready to sleep. I chat with some of the girls, when a small hand movement turns back time. "It was 1am and now it's 9pm!" I exclaim loudly as I look at the nearest person. It's Hanna. We are outside the gas station again. I go to her and say "I turned back time!" I look at the nearest clock and slightly move my hand. Time moves forward and back without effort. I stop at 9 pm and become lucid. The first thought on my mind is sex, unfortunately. I get close with Hanna, but I manage to drag myself away from her. It might be too late, I feel being excited in waking life. It might pull me away from the dream. Sure enough, visuals are instantly gone as I focused on waking life. I stay calm. Even without visuals, I know the dream is around me. I have to focus on seeing something in the dream. I choose Hanna's pants. Old blue shorts with a thin white stripe. Nice, I'm back. Time to go. I want to try my personal goal again. I fall into my old plan and search for a doorway there. I want to believe the dream can show me the way, so I just walk away from the station. The road turns into a field of flowers. Visuals become a little weird. The ground is tilted 20 degrees, but I feel like I'm walking on a flat surface. I find a white wall with flowers painted on it. There's a small square shaped wooden door with a flower shape carved on it. I would have to crawl through it in waking life, but here I just open it and step through. First there's nothing but white on the other side. I keep hoping to find the way to the frozen planet, but this doesn't appear to be white snow. Details appear. Odd looking, wonky, white corridors in every direction. I'm in a maze. "No worries, this is the alien spaceship. I'm closer to the frozen planet. This will work." I think optimistically. I look for a path going up, trying to find the bridge, but I fail. The white corridors have crudely drawn symbols at crossing paths: heart, club, spade and diamond symbols. Looks like someone used colored pencils to draw this world. But it gets weirder. Twitch emotes live here. They bounce around in small clouds and some of them merge together. For some reason the army of emotes scares me. I remember another dreamer suggesting laughing when scared, so I do that. Laughing appears to do nothing. I end up on a dance floor full of these emotes and I'm attacked by hundreds of vampiric Kappa faces that have merged together. I wake up.
