Sangfoot

Technique: I realized that I have not been sleeping very well lately. I have been tossing and turning a lot during the night, and I wake up with back and joint soreness. Yesterday I went and picked up a mattress foam topper and a new pillow to go with it :-) It is amazing! I slept so well last night!

Other than trying to improve the quality of my sleep and did not introduce any new techniques.

Results: Dream Color Code: Side Notes - Non Lucid - Lucid

Dream One: I am in Colorado with my Dad. We are staying at a very nice hotel, but we seem to be sharing our room with a bunch of other people. As I am trying to get ready for bed a bunch of strangers keep walking in and asking me stupid questions. They are all just standard DC's, which should have been a dream sign to me -_-, and they are really annoying!

The main focus of this dream was around me trying to brush off the random DC's and get ready for bed, which I finally manage to do. Grrrr but the dream isn't over yet. I wake up the next morning and I realize that I have somewhere important to be so I need to get dressed quickly. The DC's are trying to "help" me get dressed by playing monkey in the middle with each piece of my clothing.

To make matters worse once I do manage to get dress I have to show my Dad what I am wearing for him to approve it. He keeps telling me that I need to go change which makes me have to go through the process with the DC"s again and again.

My sub conscience must be pissed at me for something. This was a frustrating dream. I guess it could have all been prevented if I had remembered to RC or picked up on a dream sign :-)

Dream Two: I am at the lake with my sister and one of her friends. It is a beautiful day and the water feels great. We are playing with a rubber boat, which keeps changing size on us.

Sometimes it is big enough for all three of us to sit and sunbath in, which feels amazing.

Sometimes it is so small that I step on it like a ski and ride it around the lake. Even though this sounds really fun I like it when it is bigger better because when it is small only one person can play with it at a time.

Dream Three: This was a doozy of a dream. I am still at the lake from my previous dream but I am no longer in the water. I am at a cook out in a jungle beach cabin with my extended family (Don't ask me were the jungle came from, but it was nice to have some shade during the cook out).

All of a sudden the jungle turns dark on us and all the nocturnal creatures that hunt at night start to come out. I bunch of insects start to crawl out of the crevasses of the trees, and some come out of the ground where they had been hiding through the day. At first I was intrigued by the bugs because they were very colorful and vibrant. Even though I knew that this probably meant that they were poisonous this did not worry me.

But during the next couple minutes the bugs just keep pouring out and soon it becomes very difficult to avoid stepping on one, which would certainly mean death. I make a mistake and brush up against one. It is a ghostly blue caterpillar that is about a foot and a half long. Its main body is very slim, like a pipe cleaner, and it has 6 inch hairy needles that come out of its body on all sides.

I look down and see that I have three or four of those needles in my ankle! I don't feel the affects of any poison yet so I wonder what is going on? (Enter Dream Memory) OH NO! No wonder I am not feeling the affects of a poison, that is a quantum energy sucking caterpillar! the worst kind! (lol) They do not kill you with poison. They stick you with their quantum needles and then use those needles to track you and steal your energy until you are dead.

Dream Transition. It is the same dream but now the scene has changed. I have been carried into the cabin and my family has all gathered around me. I am holding the quantum caterpillar on my chest like a baby, and people are coming by to tell me that they love me and say their goodbyes. I can slowly feel my energy being drained away, and even though I know that my death is eminent I feel very peaceful and I have accepted it. I am actually really enjoying the attention that my family is giving me, and I feel very loved :-) My uncle gives me a shot of ***** (can't remember what he called it but it tasted like lemonade vodka! it was fantastic!) It seems to help with the pain and I enjoy sipping on it.

Some people from my church show up to say their goodbyes. They brought some Papa Johns Hawaiian pizza for me as a last meal! Sweet! I sit their and sip on my lemonade vodka, enjoying my Hawaiian Papa Johns, and listen to people tell me how much they love me. Maybe this dieing thing isn't so bad after all!

Eventually my vodka is gone, and so is my pizza. The caterpillar has taken almost all of my energy now. I start to cry and tell everyone how much I loved them, and how much I will miss them. Then everything fades to black.

That was a crazy, but enjoyable dream! :-)

Analysis: I have got to get better at recognizing dream signs! A quantum caterpillar! really! Come on Sangfoot!

I think that my new mattress pad and pillow will really start to show results soon. As I catch up on my sleep I am looking forward to increased dream recall and maybe even some lucid dreams!
