So the first thing I remember is that I was outside of this apartment type building with a mattress. For some reason, the mattress was where I actually slept, despite it being outside. Anyways, then this swarm of bees dropped out of a tree and began chasing me. They then kind of all swarmed around this one spot on thier hive and I saw that a couple of wasps were there. I decided to help the bees out and tried getting rid of the wasps. They just got mad at me however and then I had to move my mattress to avoid being swarmed by wasps. I started looking for another place to sleep. It was really wierd because I was in a commercial district of a town and all the landscaping from the buildings to the streets was really sleep. Anyways, I decided there was no other place to go and just went back to my first spot. Thankfully, the bees had gone and killed the wasps for me since I tried to help them out.

I was on a football team, playing as a defensive lineman. We had on green jerseys and I remember that we had just done a play. In it, I had pretty much just blocked the guy in front of me and nothing really happened. THen came the next play. We all lined up and I head the QB call 'hike!' and start the play. I started pushing against the other guy, trying to get to the QB. He made it past me however and I had that reoccurring issue with not being able to run in my dreams. Anyways, then a pass was made and a little reciever caught it. Suddenly, I was able to kind of just teleport across the field and tackle him, or rather, pick him up from behind and toss him back the other way. Anyways, then he didn't get up. I was worried that I had injured him and broken his neck. Thankfully, he could still move however so he wasn't paralyzed. Then the medic came over and put this little blue clip thing onto his spine, which was now randomly exposed, 'just in case he did have a spinal injury'. That is all I remember from that one.

The first thing I remember is that I pulled up in the parking lot at the local Sonic for lunch. (probably because that is really what I had for lunch earlier yesterday. lol) Anyways, I pulled up, got out of the car, and went inside. I remember opening the doors and holding them for some elderly lady and her grandkids. Then I went inside and got in line. The place was pretty busy. As I made my way to the counter to place my order, the cashier informed me of a contest to design thier next menu item. I thought I might as well try so I got my foot long chili dog w/ Dr. Pepper and got a table.

As I was sitting there I studied the menu, looking for areas where it appeared my entry would stand out. As I was scanning, I noticed that they didn't sell a double cheeseburger!! I was amazed. How could a fast food joint not serve a double? Anyways, I decided my entry would be a simple double cheeseburger with a large fry and a drink. I finished eating and got up. Then the dream kind of seemed to just fast foward to the next day.

Anywyas, I pulled up in the same spot and got out of my car. Not only did I have the entry paperwork, i had gone and made my own double cheeseburger with fries and a drink! I carried my precious cargo into the restaraunt, and it felt like I did this every day. I started to get that feeling where you just start to question what the heck you are doing, but then decide it is perfectly logical anyways. So in I went with my meal and placed it on the counter for the cashier to examine. In the dream it seemed like I already knew I was going to win the contest and sure enough, I had won. I didn't seem to be concerned with the prize and asked the cashier if I could have the cheesburger back. He said he would need it for a few minutes to show the cook and then he brought it back. I figured I may as well be the first one to eat a cheesburger named after me and then went and got a table.

As I sat down, the dream scene changed slightly. I was still in the same restaraunt and everything, but outside it got really cloudy and stormy all of a sudden. Then it started raining really hard. At this point I am really close to becoming lucid because i start wondering how the weather changed that fast. Then suddenly, I hear the tornado siren go off. For some reason I come to the conclusion that I am in Arizona however and am not worried because I didn't think Arizone had tornado's. Then however, the roof suddenly lifted off and the wind began blowing, sucking everyone out with it. I was the only one left and I was hunkered down between the boot seats, clinging on for dear life. Then for just a spit second I became lucid. I realized I was dreaming because I couldn't really feel the wind blowing on me and I actually seemed to be able to hold on fairly easily, despite the storm ripping the roof off. It literally was only for a second though because then I think a piece of debris came and smacked me in the face and I woke up.

Althought it wasn't lucid for about 99% of the time, it was still at least a good dream in that it was clear and easy to recall this morning.

Current lucid dream goals...
-Stabalize the dream each time I become lucid
-See how fast I can run and if it is consistent
-Meet someone special I have been wanting to for a long time now

See ya!

#1 - I was standing in the middle of a city street that was closed. It was dusk and it the city seemed to be somewhat old and I was in an abandoned part of town. Anyways, all I remember was something about recycling a bunch of old cars.

#2 - I was riding my motorcycle through the mountains on vacation. I remember stopping at a gas station that was pretty much by itself along this road I was traveling on. After filling up I went to get back on my bike and noticed another store going up. I went over and looked and it was a Sonic / Sega gift shop. (kind of a wierd place for something like that but I still thought it was pretty cool) Anyways, I decided to go in. (the store was now randomly open). I must of woken up at this point because that is all I remember.

Although this dream was not lucid I posessed amazing control during it. The most interesting part however was the fact that during the dream, I went to sleep and had another dream within that one! (Maybe it's because I finally had a chance to watch 'Inception'?) Anyways here is what happened...

The first thing I remember is that I was at a friends house having a sleepover. We were all piled in the living room getting snacks and making a fort out of blankets and stuff getting ready to watch a scary movie. Now, normally I am the type of person who could watch a horror movie all by myself at night and be perfectly fine, let alone have a nightmare about it, but in this dream, there was something errie about the whole situation. I remember once we finally got our fort set up we began the movie. I was really scared of something for some reason and took a spot next to the wall so I had my back against something solid as we watched the movie. It was just plain creepy. The lighting was very disturbing and all the color seemed drained from the room. Well, about half way through the movie, I becam tired and fell asleep. Now, I entered another dream, even more dark and disturbing than the previous one...

So I am still in the same house, and awake to a blood curdling scream. It was like having a false awakening during a dream. I was still in the second layer dream, just dreaming about waking back up to the sleepover. Anyways, it is early dawn and I hear this scream and am frozen with fear. I hear some creature let out its own high pitched scream as it finishes chomping down on its victim. I look around and only see two of my friends, while the third one is gone. I instantly knew what had happened to him. Then, out of the hallway, the same alien type creature from the movie we had been watching came dashing out at us. You know that old saying about how you don't have to outrun the bear, just the guy next to you? Well, I shoved one of my friends down and ran for it. The creature rushed over and scooped him up in its jaws like he was a piece of beef jerkey. It began tearing him to shreds and I could hear and see everything in detail. I started to run for the door and then the creature dropped its meal and went into the attic. I was terrified. It could drop down through the cieling any second and get the two of us remaining. I motioned for my remaining friend to go and try to make it to the door. With his first step the creature came swooping down out of the attic for just a split second and grabbed him. I stood there and was paralyzed with fear. Maybe it hunted by movement? If I stayed there maybe it wouldn't see me? But I still had a chance for the doow while it devoured its latest victim. What to do?!?!?! Suddenly, a severed head dropped through the ceiling. I was screwed. I had missed my chance to escape and now had to stand there and hope it couldn't see me if I didn't move. The creature burst down from the ceiling and stood right in front of me. I was amazed. It was looking right at me and didn't see me!! As long as I didn't move I was safe. Then, the creature let out a breath ever so slight, that it was just enough to cause me to need to cough. I tried to hold it in, for if I moved, I was dead. Then... I just couldn't hold it and coughed. The creature lunged for me and I suddenly awoke back into the slumber party dream.

I awoke and it was morning. My friends were all there and there was no monster chasing us. I got up and told them the dream. They were all pretty speechless that I could commit such an act of treachery as pushing them down to get eaten, but I reassured them it was just a dream. I told them it was a bad idea to fall asleep half way through a horror movie and we decided to watch an action movie next time. Then we all got up and went to the kitchen for a bowl of cereal.

Finally back in reality, I awoke and it was about 4:30 in the morning. I was exhausted I guess from the nightmare, but still started the alarm, in hopes of having a lucid. (although incubating my last dream was probably not the best idea in this case). Anyways, by the time it had gone off once I simply got up and shut it off I was so tired. Guess a Dr. Pepper at 10:30 right before bed is a bad thing.
Note to self : Next time parents tell you they are going to throw away all that old pop unless someone drinks it, just let them throw it away.

Well, tonight I did my regular routine however and am planning on having a nice lucid with no soda pop to interrupt.

The first fragment I remember was almost a false awakening. I was in the bathroom really early in the morning, attempting to put in my contacts. Now here already we have a problem, because in my dreams, any little fidgety thing that requires a lot of concentration I ALWAYS struggle with. Yet, in this dream I am actually having a fair amount of success. Anyways, I just can't get the stupid thing to go in. I look in the mirror and I see it has another one stuck under it! Now, you might all be thinking "Wait, you looked in a mirror in a dream. So????" Well, ya it was wierd. I am always being told how you can look wierd or frightening in the mirror but in this dream I looked perfectly normal. Right after this the dream faded.

The second one I remember is that I was standing out in my garage. I then remember that I had called this work out instructor guy to come over because he was going to show me some new routine or something for a better workout. So he comes over. The first thing I noticed about him is that he was pretty buff. I was like "Hmm, guess this guy is legit." Then I remember looking at him closer and it was wierd cause half of his skin was normal color and the other half was all yellowy. Then when he got there I asked him about this. He said it was because he was developing this body oil stuff that made you buff somehow. I remember in the dream equating this with steroids (which I would NEVER use) and telling him to get lost if that was all. Turns out he did really have a new routine though, so we started going through it. That is all I remember.

The first thing I remember in this dream was that it was the late evening, almost night. I was walking down the road ao the way to my friend's house for some reason. Now my friend lives in a neighborhood that still confuses me to this day. Well, in the dream it was wierd because his house was right on the main road and I could find my way really easily. Then, all of a sudden this huge sandstorm started blowing in however. I began to start running to try and get to my friends house. I mean, this storm was REALLY intense. YOou could hardly see your hand in front of your face and it was windy and just really bad. Also at this point, it was another one of those wierd states where you feel like you might be lucid but really aren't. I seem to dream about being lucid a lot but never actually am.

Anyways, then I finally made it to his house. (By this time it was back to normal vividness) I remember entering in through the basement as his mom held the door open and told me to hurry inside. Then my friend greeted me and we went up the stairs and started talking about everything we had planned out to do. The first thing on the list was meet some of our other friends for a round of golf. I then remember having a big argument about how I didn't like gold and was bad at it etc... That's about all I remember

putting in contacts and looking in the mirror... everything was normal

walking to a freinds house in the biggest sandstorm ever, getting there, entereing through the basement, going upstairs, talking about how we were going to play gold despite the fact I didn't like it

inviting this trainer guy over to work out. he was selling some special type of bory oil stuff that apparently helped you work out

Well, the first thing I remember is that I was in my basement setting up this huge flatscreen tv. Once I had finished setting it up, lo and behold... there was my dear old Sega Genesis!!! I couldn't believe it. In real life my parents sold it and my Dreamcast one time I was gone and made me, let's just say, REALLY ANGRY!!! So I was pretty pleased to see it there. Now why I didn't do an RC I don't know. But nevertheless, I was so excited I invited all my friends over for a big night of playing the original Sonic the Hedgehog. We were up pretty much all night playing it but the wierd thing was that it was multiplayer. Now if I remember correctly that game didn't have multiplayer. I seemed to recognize this in the dream as well. Yet another time I should of done an RC. Oh well. Still a cool dream.

This dream was peculiar in that it was a movie, but I knew this in the dream.

*real life* So yesterday I was bored and flipped on the tv to see if anything was on. I scrolled through the channels and found War of the Worlds. I had never seen the new version so I decided to watch it. Anyways, I never finished the whole thing so I guess my brain was trying to finish it for me. How kind, too bad it has to be a little jerk when it comes to letting me remember to do an RC!

*dream* So I was watching War of the Worlds in my dream. It wasn't like I was watching it on a tv though, it was ALL I could see, almost like I was there just being an observer. Anyways, in the dream there was a group of people all hiding in the basement of this warehouse type area. It was kind of like a horror movie because it was kind of dark and everything was just in a state of ruin. You know what I'm talking about. So these people were all hiding down there. They saw this refridgerator and just felt the need to open it for some reason. I remember thinking... "Oh, of course some nasty bag of body parts is going to be in there". Well, whaddaya know, as soon as they opened it blood squirted everywhere and some dude's head fell out. I remember laughing at how they acted all surprised when it seemed so obvious that would happen.

So anyways, they quickly closed the fridge again. Then this dog came out of nowhere and started barking. The wierd thing was it had on a gas mask. As it was barking all the people got worried because it might alert all the alien things to thier presence. Well sure enough another alien guy came around the corner and shouted to the rest of them where everyone was. The mose strange thing though... the alien guy was actually just a regular human with this gas mask thing on. So the aliens are all a ctually people??? My brain has a wierd way of completing movies. Anyways, that is all I remember.

(Thanks for the wierd movie brain, now if you would be so kind as to not destroy my efforts to do an RC in a dream!!)

So I was back at the CAP Encampment. We were all at this lake in the mountains. I apparently owned a boat and had brought it along. Then I left, leaving my buddies in charge of my boat. I remember in the dream hoping that they didn't damage my boat and would be able to get it back on the trailer safely. Then I got a radio message from my senior officer informing me that we had to evacuate. I passed the word along onto everyone else and we all started running down the mountain back to the base camp.

I came really close to doing an RC in the dream because as I was going down the mountain, it got really steep. So steep that I was basically just sliding down the side. The wierd part was I couldn't really feel anything. You would think going over all those rocks and stuff would hurt but I never really felt any of it. But silly me, never did the RC because I was so caught up in the moment.

So anyways, we finally made it back to base and reported in. As soon as we did this they told us we were going to evacuate AGAIN!. We all packed up the tents and stuff and began running down the mountain again. I never did find out if my boat was ok because I then woke up.

Ok so I remember that I was walking down the road and it was night. Then I went on this little trail thing that split off from the road. I turned around to start heading back for the road. The bad part was that all of a sudden there were a ton of snakes guarding my way back. I didn't really know what to do and just backed off. I kept looking for a route around all the snakes. Pretty soon they had me backed up against a small cliff and I couldn't really go anywhere else. Then this huge lizard type thing came up behind me and started pushing me back towards all the snakes.

I made up my mind. I decided to go dor it and try to do a huge leap of faith over all the snakes and outrun them back to the road. I began running... picked up speed... and... jumped! I made it over all the snakes. Feeling victorious, I eased my pace and walked back to the road. Bad idea! Then the lizard thing came out of no where behind me and grabbed onto my leg. Then in one of those decisions you would only make in a dream, I simply petted it. That made it happy and it let go. That's all I remember

This dream started out kind of wierd because it was from a different perspective. I was at my friend's house and we were playing this simulation / board game thing with the rest of his family at a party. I couldn't see anything except for this board. It was like wearing goggles showing the game we were playing or something. Anyways, the game consisted of moving from tile to tile without falling off. Each player also had a moving platform thing that they could stand on for a limited amount of tie before they would have to jump onto another tile. Anyways, we played this for a while. Then the dream cleared up and I was out of the game and back in the party.

There was some music going and a breakdancing competition going on. I have never breakdanced in my life but I went over and started in. I was really good at it and made it to the final round. (too bad I wasn't lucid so I could go brag about being such a good breakdancer. ) Anyways, after this I went over and got some food. Then I went over and there was a big Wii party going on by the tv. Everyone was playing Sonic Colors and, being a Sonic fan, I went over and played for a while. Once I was done there the party wound down and everyone started leaving.

For some reason my car wasn't outside though so I said I would just walk home. Then the dream suddenly changed and I was out on the highway just running. At this point I kind of forgot what I was really even doing. Anyways, as I was running I came to an intersection and it got cloudy outside. Then the whole dreamscape shifted and the gorund around the highway just dissolved into nothing. I was left alone, standing on the highway lost in the clouds. (grrr... another cool time to become lucid) I began to wonder what was going on and seemed to become more aware in the dream. Soon after though, I woke up.

Well at first I was outside in the main square of this little town. It was like I was in the Old West because everyone was dressed like that and the buildings looked like it too. Anyways, I was in this large crown in front of the courthouse in this town. Apparently we were all waiting on a decision the court was making. I don't know what it was about but it was a big issue. Anyways, then these two guys came running out of the courthouse and were telling everyone what the court said. Apparently they made the wrong choice because everyone got really upset about it and stormed into the courthouse.

Once we were inside, the dream shifted somewhat. It turns out that we were actually on a military base and then everyone there was dressed in uniform. They decided to listen to what everyone had to say and they might possibly overturn the ruling. Just when we started the debate however, the dream faded.

Well, the first thing I remember is that I was in this huge warehouse type building with a bunch of people from school and my CAP squadron. The place was packed, and decorated like some really formal party from the 40's was going on or something. The next thing I remember is that we were all standing in line to get our portrait taken. I asked what we were supposed to wear and they said that if you were in CAP you needed to wear your Dress Blues Uniform. I was shocked because I had been told this was a black tie party so I wore none other than... a tux and a black tie! They said I still needed to change though.

I began running around asking anyone if they had an extra uniform or anything I could borrow. For some reason it was a big emergency that I wear the right thing. After asking nearly everyone in the place I went over and had some punch. Then this other guy came over and told me that the next best thing was to wear all black. He said he had an extra black shirt so I went and changed in the restroom. When I came back out they were making a last call for pictures. As I ran over to get my picture the dream faded and that is all I remember.

First off, the title is a joke. Who gets it??

Now, onto the dream...

So the first thing I remember is that I was with a couple of guys from CAP. We were in this huge footbal stadium randomly running around. The wierd thing was that we were pretty much the only people there besides the janitor who was going around sweeping. For some reason we had to sneak into the janitor's closet and steal all his brooms. We saw him come out with the mop and we went in. After we got the brooms we saw him start coming back. To keep from getting caught we started sweeping like nothing was going on. He gave us a funny look but continued on. We then went up the stairs, and down the stairs, and all around the whole stadium trying to find the rest of the squadron. We finally found them out in this kind of half covered garage area. We went to check in and they asked for our ID's. The other two guys got out thier wallet and so did I. For some reason though I scanned in my hunter's safety card instead of my CAP ID. You know how dreams are, first off it took me forever to get the barcode scanned. Little fidgety things are hard to do in dreams for some reason. Once I finally got my ID out though it went pretty fast though. So now we are standing in line to get on board these armored van type vehicles. We all get on and I am in the back with the driver (ya the driver was in the back for some reason). He also had a ton of levers that could control how al the seats were tilted. He went and started randomly hitting the levers just to annoy everyone. We finally took off though. During the ride I thought to myself "Oh wait, who has my dog?". Thankfully someone on the van had him. They got dropped off so I took my dog back. That is about all I remember.
