I was with a mutated-dream-version of friend and their family. In my dream, their oldest son, who was still a child, had recently passed away. They still had one other young son, and I was talking to him in a mall that we were all shopping in for a new bed for the little boy. He asked me if the bed was going to be for [dead son]. I felt sad and confused on how to answer this. I was working in a restaurant setting and a co-worker told me that I had forgotten to bring a mat over when I brought the flatware. I recalled seeing this blue mat (maybe something that you would lay dishes on to dry?) so I went back to the area I thought it was and grabbed it. I felt a sense of satisfaction because I suspected my co-worker wanted to get me into trouble. dream fragment- Two newborn lion cubs, maybe more. Not in a wild setting. Another human present and we were commenting on the cubs but I don’t remember what we said. Thoughts: This friend of mine and family are in town right now and I probably won’t see them before they leave. The restaurant dream is a common theme for me. The co-worker in the dream was in waking life a girl I went to high school with that I haven’t talked to in many many years. Finally not a dog-centric dream!
Day off today. Bed 10 pm last night - 6:20am. DR1 I'm standing outside of a large, older style house in the woods. Not many leaves on the very tall, skinny trees with lots of long branches. Sun maybe setting because there is not much sun and conditions for taking photographs is not ideal. But I look closer and I realize how beautiful and unique the scenery is. I raise my camera and start taking pics, zooming in a framing trees with skies. It's really beautiful. There are some kids coming closer and one is pausing, thinking I'm taking pics of her. But I just want her to get away from my shot. DR2 I'm in my old bedroom with someone else. There is a bomb in the middle of the room and 2 seasoned police officers from bomb squad are disarming it. They are not worried at all, because it's an old bomb, not complete. They are unscrewing 4 cylinders from the top. I'm wondering why are they turning them clockwise, when unscrewing should be counter-clockwise. I realize that someone who placed them there wanted the officers to actually finish assembling it while they are thinking they are dismantling it, and it's gonna blow. I grab a child that's with me, rush it out to the balcony where we huddle in the corner with blanket over us. Im't trying to shield him with my body. I yell at the officers to get their attention. One comes to the window and I yell at them to stop, the bombm is oxidized and gonna blow. Second guys comes to wndow and I repeat. DR3 I'm driving slowly behind a line of cars. The road is blocked with some kind of construction, or destruction debree. We have to drive up the curb, then over some metal planks that bridge a trench in the asphalt top, that is almost completely filled with very dusty soil. The asphalt is coverd in dust as well, ther are some sand drifts too. I wonder if car will drive through it. I'm hoping the guys directing us will not find out that we are not part of them, as they are the bad guys.
Bedtime: 10:00pm WBTB: 4:00 am Wakeup: 7:00am Dream 1 I'm at my parent's house in my room (thought it looks different than IRL) and there is a bag with some stuff in it, looks like meat patties and potatoes, but when I open it up, there's a bunch of dead bats in it as well. These bats are huge, not just regular small bats. They spill out all over the floor, it's totally repulsive. I think there were some crazy weird beetles, too. I pick up the bats with something other than my hands, I can't remember what I was using, but I didn't want to touch them. I remember their wings were so strange. They were very large and the bones in the wings were as long as drumsticks. When I put them into a new garbage bag, the wings would poke out of the sides. It was a really disturbing image. Now that I'm awake, I feel bad for these little guys, but in the dream I was scared out of my mind. Dream 2 I spent the night in a backyard (not sure who's house it was), in this weird metal spacecraft looking thing. The whole night I was drifting in and out of sleep, and in between sleeps I was listening to the Beatles on an iPod, but they were old songs I've never heard before. Finally, around 5am, I woke up and ran into the house. I think I can remember my mom saying I needed to drive to her house, so I did. WBTB: I didn't attempt to WILD, but I did do a bit of positive thinking and mental prep for a MILD. It worked!! Dream 3 I am in a restaurant, and there's all these really hot guys there. We're all eating together, and then the next thing I know we're all lying down on the table, and it feels like an orgy is happening but everyone has their clothes on. I'm not really participating, but someone is holding my hand. The next thing I remember, I'm standing up and I hold my hands out with my palms facing down and push, which causes me to levitate. I'm not lucid, but I think I must have been sort of semi lucid, because I remember thinking "is this going to work?" and it worked very well. Everyone was staring at me floating there in the middle of the room. Then there is a break in the dream where I can't remember what happened, but the next thing I know, everyone including me are wearing tuxedos and we're running through the mall (this restaurant was in the mall). I'm with this one guy and we're trying to find a place to "be alone" , while everyone else is running for different reasons I think. We find a gymnasium full of guys playing basketball, and I tell the one I'm with that I'm going to use a Jedi mind trick to make them all leave. In my head I'm not sure if it will really work, but we get in there and I snap my fingers. The guys all start to leave but they're giving me dirty looks. I turn to the guy I'm with and all of a sudden he looks completely different. He's like this small mousey kid and he also looks mad at me and runs away. I run back out into the mall and meet up with another one of the guys from the restaurant. I tell him I can levitate, and I try it again but it doesn't work. He says, "Try looking up at the sky when you do it," I try this and it works for a few seconds. Then we reach these glass doors guarded by two guys (who are also in tuxedos), and they say we have to wait 20 minutes before we can go through. I tell one of the guards he needs a haircut. Somehow they get distracted and we run through the doors. The guards start chasing us. I'm with a larger group of people now, and we're running toward these huge marble columns. I know my best option is to slide down them. I reach the columns and look down. It's a 3 story drop, and I say to myself "I can't do this, I can't do this..." I remember thinking I could try to manifest a feather bed at the bottom, but I know I could still get hurt. Then out of nowhere, I become lucid. Like completely full on lucid. I say "I'm dreaming! This is a dream!" I grab onto the marble column and prepare to slide down. I notice how real everything feels. It really was just like waking life. I realize I haven't done a reality check, and sliding down a marble column could be a really dangerous way to figure out if I'm dreaming, but I really felt that it was a dream and I didn't have time to check so I began my descent. There were little decorative holes in the column that I used to quickly scale down, and everyone followed me. Once we reached the bottom I almost punched one of the guards in the face, but since I was dreaming I decided what's the point. I was so excited to be lucid, but everything started to fade to black. I reached out my hands to touch something but it was too late. I was in this black void. I tried to open my eyes but they were like glued shut. So I kept them shut and tried to stay very still. I felt still very connected to the dream world. But nothing was manifesting so I opened them, and I was in my room. I should have done a RC, because this turned out to be a FA, but I wasn't lucid anymore and was just so excited, I remember jumping up and down on my bed and clapping my hands. Then I woke up IRL and tagged it all in my DJ. Dream 4 I was going to the mall with my sister. We pulled up to the front in the car, and there was a car in front of the door, but no one was in it. A little dog was sticking his head out of the driver side window, so I got out and pet his head while I waited. Then the driver, an angry transgendered woman, came out and glared at me. I told her I was sorry for touching her dog and she was really pissed. She dropped her scarf and I picked it up for her, and she was like "yeah..." like it was my fault she dropped it or something. Then she left and I dropped my sister off, then I parked the car. While inside, I saw my high school biology teacher, and we talked for a bit. Then my sister and I went to Sears and had all these coupons. There was a man who was following us and he kept taking our cart every time we'd step away to grab something. I needed new work shoes but couldn't find the ones I was looking for.

I had accident, a car bumped into me and it threw me out of body. I looked on my physical body and it was pretty messed up. Then I looked on my "astral" body and it was shining white and naked. I walked away without any worries or sorrows about it. After some time walking around I went to city hospital. I found my body, after major operation, healing up. I went to find physician to speak with him. I asked him: when I may take my body again? He looked on me and told me: You are naked, you must not show yourself in naked state, it is not proper. I countered: I feel hot and I don't need clothes. Physician then tried to cover me with white doctor coat, but it went right through me and to ground. I'm not physically here... see? I told him. Then physician stood up and showed his fist into wall a few cm deep into it and it started to ring. Like old telephone ring. And I saw that under the mortar there was small push button with bell pictured on. I touched it with my finger and the ring stopped.
0:45 bedtime 2:00 still awake, take 2mg melatonin + (f, vague, impression) football? + read address outside home (3615), happy that now I finally have the address of my old school BF, I try to read address again and it is fuzzy I cannot see any digits. Closeup of some meat dish cooking in a brown sauce. I'm looking at it for some while. Some part of this is from McDonald's and I'm surprised because my friend is a gourmet. +(f) with a guy in a garage looking at toys/games/objects? + baby, laugh/tickle, dogs nuzzle faces unknown pug and old dog L (CH kitchen?), rash on baby, I get rash on hands, to go mirror, friend in the way, "I'm waiting for the sink!" he has cross/chains in hand?, look in mirror, face wrong/puffy, upset that nobody told me I had a puffy face, my eyes are too squinted/closed, I try to pry them open back to regular shape [DAY RESIDUE, mirror dream yoga exercise] wake, can't believe I missed the mirror scenario, BTS + LD#190 mirror [first LD from mirror check!]. I'm walking quickly through a garage heading for the door to the kitchen, I do a sudden double-take (I walked by a mirror?), stop and look at my face in a mirror with my left hand grasping the door frame into the kitchen, see my face is like the previous dream (wrong face/puffy), and get lucid. I walk into the kitchen, there's a girl there. I do a short pat-down lucid ritual, then I immediately hold out my hand to blast her with lightning (yay!). At first nothing comes out but then some tendrils/tube of energy forms from my hand running towards her. She sends a blast back at me (?) and they meet in the middle (?). Another girl and an older woman enter the kitchen, I try to ignore them. I then approach the woman/girl, getting a quick kiss from the first girl as I walk by her. Then I'm trying to rip the clothes off one of the girls with TK with my "be naked" gesture. It doesn't work, I try it repeatedly. The original girl is naked then and I approach and the dream fades + couch, blankets, construction, folding and unfolding couch, talking about it + I'm walking through the lobby of some hotel heading for an upper floor. There are various female clerks behind counters. I'm heading for the stairs, then "remember" [FALSE] that there are elevators around a corner through a hallway. I head to there but the walls of the corridor narrow to about 1/2 a person's width [DREAM SIGN], I can't get through so return. I'm looking for another elevator when a female staff member says I do not have access? + hot MILF doubletake (boobs), cloth/rope ladder (will it take my weight?) to 2nd floor of shop, stuck on ladder, stuck getting out finally claw my way out with help of (hot MILF?)

I had two interesting things happen last night. First, I think I had a lucid dream during non REM sleep. Second, I had another dream character persist over multiple dreams in a single night! I went to bed at 1:15am so I was pretty suprised that I woke up from my first dream at only 2:00am. Maybe that point me in a different state of mind that was suitable for persistent dreams. 06.22.2016 02:00AMNon REM ShenanigansNREM LUCID? NON-LUCID LUCID OTHER I spontaneously realize I am in between falling asleep and forming a dream so I think I should try and form one my self. I don't realize I barely went to bed less than an hour ago. I claw at the ground and feel the carpet from my home. I still can't see anything though. I keep experiencing different visuals and feelings but hold my consciousness long enough until I am able walk around and see something. It is still dark though. I am outside a museum with my girlfriend on a moonless night. We are sitting on the steps eating a bento box. She starts smoking a long cigarette and I tell her that's not very healthy. It isn't like her at all which reminds me that this is a dream. I stand up and walk up the steps. The greeter lady at the door agrees that smoking isn't healthy. I go through the door and imagine myself at home. I am in my bedroom but it is still dark. I flip the lightswitch but nothing happens. I say "light up" but nothing happens. I can't seem to get much light into this dream and wake up. 06.22.2016 05:40AMAndrox The Space Cat Part 1NON-LUCID NON-LUCID LUCID OTHER I am in my hometown and find a little white kitten with very large ears stranded on the road. I take it home and show my sister. She thinks I should keep it and I decide to raise it. While I am alone in my room with the cat it starts talking to me in English! It has the voice of a little boy. I am suprised and ask it if it is a magical cat. The kitten floats up in the air while he explains that he is a space cat that is suppose to help protect the universe from evil. His body becomes a window into a vibrant scene of space. He tells me that he can teleport to anywhere in the universe at will. I think this cat is going to be very interesting to have around on my dream adventures but I don't become lucid. I don't really remember much else from this conversation. I know that the cat has sort off accepted me as his owner. It is sort of like an outdoor cat in that he isn't always around, he could be anywhere, but he come back and even follows me back to my apartment in Los Angeles. After I woke up I wrote down some notes and must have went back to sleep thinking about the cat because he showed up in my next dream the same morning! 06.22.2016 07:30AMAndrox The Space Cat Part 2NON-LUCID NON-LUCID LUCID OTHER I am in Arizona with my dad and sister for some reason. We are outside of some cabin and I want to go back inside but there are a bunch of snakes in the way. My dad and sister follow the trail the opposite direction and I am on my own. I am suddenly teleported back to my parents house in my hometown and the space kitten is there. I suppose it is the kitten that teleported me. I feel bad that I am having a hard time remember his name even though I know I must have asked it in the previous dream. (I'm still not lucid even though I know I met the cat in a dream) I start to remember that it started with an A. "I'm sorry but what is your name again?", I ask. He replies, "Don't worry about it. My name is Androx." "That's right. I remember now." I say and I remember writing down that name even although it isn't in my notes. I make sure to remember that name now because I feel like Androx will show up again. Androx says, "Matthew, I need your help fighting evil witches. Are you up for the challenge? I know that you already have powers but I am willing to give you even more new powers if you work with me." I think it sounds pretty cool but I am a bit skeptical since I only just met this cat. I ask him how should I know that witches are evil since I have only met good witches in my dreams. Androx explains that witches are beings filled with magical energy but not all of them are evil. A few of them are good or neutral and may be willing to help me. I notice that my niece and nephew are unconscious and seemingly being given a similar vision by Androx. I tell Androx to leave my family out of it to pretend like his is a regular cat except for to me. He says that he wants to give them powers too but agrees to hide his true nature at least for now. I notice that there is some sort of obnoxious main menu for a video game on the TV but can't figure out how to turn it off. This distracts me for a while and the dream moves to me being at a county fair until I wake up. I am pretty sure Androx showed up for a moment in a later dream but didn't play a roll in the plot. I think it is interesting that now I am better at chaining non lucid dream plots between different dreams. I should definitely talk to Androx in a lucid dream and figure out what he is all about. I am going to be a bit cautious because I recently watched Madoka Magica and feel like he is a bit inspired by Kyuube. Especially because of his voice and the whole witches thing. However, I think he is also inspired by Luna from Sailor Moon and the cat from Gab's avatar so I don't think I have to much to worry about. It seems like witches and magical cats are an important part of my dream world. This goes all the way back to when I asked a witch lady to be my dream guide. She also had a talking cat but he was black and fully grown. She only has shown up for a short moments without actually doing anything. Apparently she is to busy fighting an evil witch that is her nemesis. I have also seen a witch a few times in all white with wings that reminds me of Glenda the Good Witch. She uses healing magic. Gandalf has shown up a lot too but I guess he is a wizard and not a witch. It is sort of like how in a show or game you can tell what feels like a main story and what feels like side stuff and everything with witches has felt like main story. It is interesting that in Sensei's dream world witches are all evil while so far in mine they are all good.

I am on a rock in a dark cave. My 5th grade teacher and her son are there on the sides of the rock. My teacher says something about me having a girlfriend, and I just say, "um, I'm gay". She and her son laugh and the dream ends. The next dream, I find myself in a tiny cage in the sky. I bend the bars and escape. I then am in a walled area. I jump up a nearby hill, and there is a tree at the top. I climb to the top and then jump down and land really well. I then find my friends and we run from the village guards.
This little dream fragment from last night just came to mind. I was in one of those little mini cars that has two passenger seats I needed to continue my adventures afoot so i casually decided to fold this car into a neat little suitcase. I grabbed the handle, stretched it out towards a bike rack, and locked it up. Funny how you can do the must absurd things in dreams yet continue along as if everything was normal.
I wake up in my bed early in the morning.....or rather, I think I wake up in my bed. I decide to do a reality check on my RC tattoo on my arm before going back to sleep (it did not occur to me that it was dark and I wouldn't be able to see it). When I look at my arm, my tattoo is glowing and does not say "Dream" like it's supposed to. I am shocked to realize this is a false awakening and I am now fully lucid! Excited to be in my real bedroom, I carefully climb out of bed trying not to wake myself up. I decide to exit out my bedroom window to go explore. Outside, the scene is clear and gorgeous! The sky is lit up with swirling stars and colors, and I see fish swimming in the air. I feel awestruck by how beautiful it is. I remember that I set a goal last night to stop and sit down in my next lucid dream (I usually can't seem to stop myself from moving forward constantly when lucid). I find a log to sit down on, feeling confident in my ability to relax and fully enjoy the beauty around me. One of the fish approaches me and I hold out my hand to greet it. It lands in the palm of my hand. It is large, black and brown, and has large, expressive lips. I say hello and it says hello back. I am thrilled by the idea of taking to a flying fish, but I suddenly wake up before the conversation can go further.
I'm not exactly sure where I am at first, but after a while I'm on a cruise ship. There are quite a number of people. I'm with.. my mom? Not sure. We're just entering a tight area that will lead us to our seats, a bit similar to an airplane. There's a white guy, a crew member, showing everyone their places. I have a very short chat with him. I'm holding a blanket and then move to my spot. Somewhere while moving, I can hear something over the intercom, which changes later into a radio broadcast or something. There's crew discussing about the vegetarian food having run out. There's one woman in particular that is quite shocked by it. She can't believe that that happened and goes on a rant about how non-veggies eat all the veggie food and then the meats, instead of sticking to the meats. Selfish. I'm quickly fed up with it, due to her innocence/ignorance. Yeah, all you can eat, people take advantage. Duh. At some point I'm mapping out a route with Google Maps. The route is unclear to me at first, as it involved backtracking. Not sure what happened to this route. Next thing I'm on the motorcycle, driving in the evening with my new friend D, towards a house. The other guys are supposed to come too, but I don't see them yet. I'm wondering if I should go find them. Not too long after they show up on their motorcycles as well. Stupid me. They know this area better than I do. It's one of their house after all. I meet an Indonesian guy who is sitting at a table. I accidentally introduce myself as Michael. I correct shortly after. I think his name was Victor. He asks me if I can speak Indonesian. I answer in Indonesian, saying that I can, but that I sometimes talk slowly if it's a live talk, as opposed to instant messaging.
Dream One- My boyfriend and I are living in a REALLY BIG house. He wants to go out shopping or something, so we get in my car and start down the long dirt driveway of this mansion. I notice the sky is cloudy and worry that it will rain and my car will get stuck in the mud. I tell my boyfriend maybe we should go back, but he isn't concerned. we almost reach the end of the driveway (it's a long drive way, like twists and turns through woods and between two fields kind of long) and it starts to rain super heavy. Just as we are going around a turn that just happens to be edge by a creek, the car starts slipping in the mud and almost goes over the bank and into the creek. My boyfriend gets out of the car and pushes it back on the bank before it can land in the creek, then gets back in and tells me to drive home after all. When we get home we go inside to watch a movie. We are just settling down on the sofa when we hear a ruckus outside. I open the front door and see a bunch of kids from ages 11-15 trying to stomp on what looks like a grey kitten in the driveway. I yell at the kids to leave the cat alone and get off my property or I am calling the law! The kids run away down the driveway, and I walk outside to pick up the terrified kitten. I notice it isn't grey, but more of an off white color with grey marking around it's eyes like a Siamese. Then I hear another mewling noise, and find another kitten, this one and orangish brown color, under my boyfriend's jeep. I pick that one up too and carry them inside. My boyfriend is not a cat person, and asks irritably why I brought them in the house. I tell him I couldn't leave them out there to get killed by those kids or rained on by the approaching storm and he concedes, though he does tell me sternly I can't keep them. We both sit back down on the sofa, and he takes the white and grey kitten from me (it seems bigger, and older than the other kitten) and I keep holding the brownish orange one. I take a few picture of the one I am holding with my phone, and I notice it goes from being fuzzy to being hairless and then goes back to being fuzzy again. I think this odd, but then forget about it as it is time for my boyfriend to go to work. We get in the jeep and drive to work. i remember that I left my car stuck in the mud (even though I didn't) and start walking back home to get my car. Dream Two- We are in a nearby small town that I lived in as a toddler. There's a parade of kids in costumes walking down the road towards my boyfriend and I. I suggest we go into a nearby house that I know the occupants of with our dogs because our dogs get very excited very easily and would jump all over the kids wanting to be petted. I also notice that one of the kids is dressed like a Gundam, and we talk about the Gundam costume on the way into the little house. My boyfriend disappears when we go through the door and it's just me trying to hold back the two dogs who are very excited to see my Mom, Grandma, and the family friends who live there. My grandma tells me that the family friends (who really aren't anyone I know in real life) are working and I need to help them out if I am going to hang out in their house. I tell her I can't because the dogs are about to pull me down and can't just let them run wild. My mom says she might help them, but then calls her second ex husband to ask him if he wants any fruit. I find this question really odd so I walk into the kitchen and see a sign on their wall that says, "Full House Fruits" the dogs disappear, and I remember that I still need to go back and get my car from the mud! Dream Three- (? may be a continuation of dream two that I forgot the transitional phase to?) I am pulling up to the Full House Fruits shop in my car. I walk in and notice no one is inside. I keep walking and make my way out the back door where I find that they are having a backyard art gallery/yard sale. I look at the books and DVDs they are selling. I notice one book that is called "Seventeen" and stars Mary Kate and Ashley. I find this really odd because I didn't realize they starred in books. I consider getting it just because it's strange, but keep looking instead. Next I find a book with an anime style cover and a German title. At first I think it's Sword Art Online, but then I realize the characters are carrying bows and quivers instead of swords. I open it up to flip through it, and it looks like a child's early reader book where certain words and characters are replaced by pictures. I pull that one out to buy, then wake up. Dream Four- My son, boyfriend, and I are all three staring at a picture of an old timey car that's been stretched out to have extra rows of seats. There are two people in each row of seats and their faces look like they were drawn in the era of pin up girls. Behind the car in the picture is a big office style building, and that building is balancing by a single corner on top of a paper air plane. My boyfriend makes the statement that the whole picture reminds him of work, and my son asks him how. He explains how the people in the backseat are all super happy and just enjoying the ride remind him of the big wigs who don't really have to do much but enjoy the profits. The people in the middle two rows seem less happy the closer you get to the front and seem to have cell phones and laptops and tablets in front of them to do the easy paper work. Then, the two people in the front seat are driving and figuring out the route with a map and clearly distressed because they have to do all the work as well as figure out how to make things exactly how the higher ups want them even when they don't make sense. Then he points to the building on the paper airplane and explains that it represents how the whole company is really just floating on the backs of the customers and could go under at any time if the customers decided they didn't want to buy the furniture anymore. My son asks if we wanted to be the hard workers when we started working there, or if we got stuck doing it because no one else wanted to. My boyfriend tells him everyone starts work with the dreams of climbing the ladder all the way to the top to own the company and be making millions, but unfortunately very few ever make it that high up. Most people, like us, we stuck being the ones who do the work while the higher ups enjoy all the fruits of the labor. In the dream I think this is such a deep metaphor and just can't believe he got all that from such a weird picture!
The place I'm in is a mix of a house set by a lake, but there are no enclosed rooms. I'm with my uncle, and he is still mourning my aunt's passing. It's a Friday night. We're talking, and something happens. There's a spark. We have chemistry. We are enjoying what the other person is saying. I'm confused about my feelings, and he is too. I leave, promising to come back on Sunday. I tell my girlfriend about it, and she is very supportive. She sets up the meeting on Sunday. She wants us to get together. Sunday, I go to him. We lay in bed together. I am overpowered by how sick he smells, how old he is, and that he is my uncle. The chemistry I felt is gone, and there is only revulsion. Still, he strokes my face and kisses me. I try to kiss back, but I can't. The kiss is warm and wet and disgusting to me. I am so embarrassed. He senses it and pulls away. I close my eyes and whisper, "I'm sorry..." I leave and sleep on the couch. I wake up in the morning and walk around. I don't know how long I slept, but my uncle is nowhere to be found. I really wanted to explain to him that maybe, people had a short connection and then it disappeared, and it wasn't meant to be pursued. I saw that he had put his laundry in the wash. The television in front of the couch is on, but I don't register what's playing. I am only filled with guilt. I walk out of the house to find my girlfriend. She knows it went wrong, and she is angry with me. We are talking on the phone until I find her sitting at the water's edge of a lake. She looks sad and holds a guitar. I try to go to her as the water levels rise and consume her while she plays the guitar. And she doesn't care. I wake up from this deep dream and I'm shocked at waking life for a moment, so different from the emotions of moments before.
Dream 1: Non-lucid, then Lucid- I was in an Aldis store but instead of it being just isles like the grocery store only it had storage spaces, elevators & escalators. The parking lot was really vast & had valet's & a parking garage. My oldest friend Christian was there & I was so surprised that he was there.. I became lucid because there was no way any of this was possible. I knew he lives so far away & that this Aldis was some kind of futuristic thing. It all screamed technology that just isn't there yet. I didn't have enough money for the valet & he saved me from the embarrassment & paid the valet. Then the dream turned into a birthday party for Christian (not the one I really attended as a child but very very close) & then I woke up. Then the chaining began. Dream 2: non-lucid, then lucid- I went to the bathroom & came back & laid back down & started with Christian being there & then he was gone & I was on this sailboat. It was so detailed! It was glamorous & the guy on the boat was not someone from my real life. I was trying to take a bath but he kept wanting to know what was taking so long. I was trying to masturbate, lol. In real life I would never try to do this in the bathtub cuz it just isn't comfortable, lol. But in dreams I frequently have pent up sexual energy. Then I was lucid cuz I new the scenario was crazy. Finally I came out & we were just living a life on the boat. We were sailing along like this was just an every day thing in this glamorous lifestyle. I awoke again & went straight into the next dream. Dream 3: Non-lucid, then lucid- I was on our main street drag here in my town but it had different things from different places I've lived in. I had 3 kids & we were enjoying the day because there were vendors & a couple of rides like a small carnival was going on. It was extremely vivid. Then I realized the guy I was with took my kids & I was frantically asking people from the booths to help me. First they finally gave me an old rotary dial phone but it wouldn't call anyone. Then some of the people thought I was crazy. I realized that about half a mile away up a hill that actually looked like our main street here that there was a bigger carnival going on. I became lucid (DILD) & wasn't upset about the kids like before. Instead I started walking towards the carnival with curiosity because it looked so pretty. I went & walked around the fair grounds & just enjoyed the place with all of it's rides. I was noticing that some of it reminded me of a lucid dream I had had a crazy long time ago when I was in middle school. It reminded me yet again that I had spent so many hours as a kid sleeping. I used to sleep to escape my real world where so many things had gone wrong. My happy family wasn't happy anymore & I was acting out. I loved to be up at night & sleep after school & have these amazing lucid dreams. Everyone said I was sleeping because I was depressed & it used to drive my mom crazy. I was depressed but the dreams were a really great escape & now I understand them better. Yesterday was a long hard day which left me worried for my mother n law. We had to go one town over because she is just so confused about her thermostat & had it on 45 & is froze up. It could actually catch on fire. I know this cuz my own house caught on fire a few years ago because of my Central Air Unit & I just recently got the air back. Was only able to afford the heat at first. Anyway I'm worried she's gonna burn down her house in an array of possible ways. Dreading going back today because I'm going to need to break down & call my sister n law & initiate a conversation about what the next step is with her. I have a heavy heart right now. It's my husband's mom but since his dad died around 10 or 11 yrs ago he's rather indifferent to the whole thing. When I first tried to go to sleep I tried to go to sleep listening to a new lucid dream binaural beats from YouTube. Waste of time & sleep. So when my husband woke up at 2:13 I just sat up & started surfing the net on my phone reading random article's that I hadn't come across before & when he went to work I went to sleep which attributed to today's list of dreams.

I was on a dark street with my dog (I seriously must have nothing else going on in my life) and she suddenly ran off toward the river. I was shocked because she has never done this, and she was ignoring my calls. I finally caught up with her but I didn’t have a leash. I thought it would be a good idea to put her in my car (I can’t remember what I was doing at the time, but I was going somewhere that wasn’t home.) I held onto my dog’s collar as we walked back and I encountered a drunk man that I apparently knew as a regular in a restaurant I worked at. He made some random comments that I don’t remember and I felt slightly uncomfortable. I went into a theater/pub where two of my friends were. One of them had my car keys. The first one I encountered, Amy, was announcing someone to the crowd. I tried to get her attention but couldn’t. I saw my other friend, Angi, and she gave me my keys. My dog morphed between my current dog and my last dog, who passed away almost a decade ago. This is not uncommon. I also remember driving by an outdoor laundromat during the day, and thinking that I could work there, that it didn’t seem so bad. The place was basically a parking lot with one or two washing machines/dryers and a stand with a bunch of hot pink and bright blue flowers for sale. I had dreams of trying to solve graphic design problems too, in fact I thin this is what the bilk of my night was spent doing. I'm currently taking some courses, and I guess my brain is working overtime. Thoughts: I took Valerian Root before bed last night, probably falling asleep around 12:15am, which is late for me. I read some design books in bed before sleeping. My thoughts seemed to be racing again—not very stressful thoughts, but my brain struggled to relax. Again, visualization practices seemed difficult and uninteresting. Woke up at 3am and read for an hour or two, fell back asleep around 5ish. I'm taking my dog to the vet today for vaccines. Looking for part time work.
Bedtime: 2:00am Wakeup: 10:30am Dream 1 (fragment): I was on a rooftop of a high rise building, and the roof was a pool. I was with my sister, and we had this giant floatation device in the shape of an octopus, it was huge and pink, and somehow it fell off the roof into the street and I could hear crashing and horns and screaming. Oops! Dream 2: I came home but my apartment was way bigger than normal, though I didn't question it in the dream. There were children running around, and I knew my roommate was supposed to be babysitting them, but she was talking to some tall mysterious men on a screened in porch. The kids were crying, and I had to give one of them a haircut, but she kept thrashing and running away, and then she said she hated the haircut cuz her hair looked curly. I tried to get her to sit down to let me finish, and I offered to blow-dry it so that it would be straight but she was just crying and freaking out. Eventually my roommate came out to take care of them and then the parents came and got them.
