#389 - DILD - 11:39PM


Bedtime: 9:30-10:00PM

I was surprised by an early night lucid last night. I don't have much for the entry because I nearly forgot it. I did my best to recall upon awaking but I was so tired that I quickly fell back into a non lucid dream before I could make and entry.

I should note that I was trying to get lucid prebed. I simply fell asleep being totally aware of all body sensations similar to an SSILD short cut.

I find myself lucid talking with some woman. I am having a hard time understanding and retaining what she is saying but I feel like the information is important. I tell her that I can't understand her and the word appear in a font on a wall from something like and overhead projector. I start reading but my words sound like gibberish and I quickly realize the words are just random letters or something like a foreign language. I shout about how nothing is making any sense.

I have an FA and tell Rex about a lucid dream that involved the three stooges. For some reason I have trouble pronouncing 'stooges'.

I am in a field hiding behind a log having a bow and arrow shootout. I am loosing and shout at a woman to help. I call her by my wife's name. I know this is the wrong name but I just go with it. I look over the log and see a guy running up on my. I shoot him with an arrow but there is no tip and it looks bent a broken. I only hope the close range does some damage. As I release the arrow I shout, "Die mother fucker!"

2:00AM
Since my LD was so weak, I decide to go ahead and do my WBTB. After a period abstinence the day before, I have 1/2 a bottle frappuccino (about 6-7oz.) at WBTB. I was really tired and didn't stay up longer than a few minutes of trying to rouse myself in the kitchen. I feel asleep once again focused on body sensations and repeating goals as a mantra. I didn't get lucid but I had some very vivid and cool dreams.

2:48AM

I am extremely late for work at my parents old house. I try to put a lunch together. I look in the fridge but nothing looks good or right.

4:03AM (Star Wars KOTOR style)

I am walking through a starship with some battle companions. There are large orbital droids with blue force fields attacking us. I fight back with a red light saber and force push powers. The lightsaber hilt resembles a blue baseball bat handle. I find it looks odd but feels very nice in my hand and gives me great maneuverability. I make a lot fancy movements putting my weapon into a blur of red as I spin and slash through my enemies. My force push shows some light faint blue energy from my hands as the droids smash into walls and shatter. At one point I lose focus and miss a droid with my lightsaber. I think to throw my lightsaber but fear it wont return. The droid glides over my head and behind me. I try force pushing behind my back but it misses. I do a backwards thrust with my lightsaber and cut the droid in half without looking. At one point I assist my friend with a blue lightsaber by trusting my lightsaber to the hilt into a larger droid. I watch as the metal turns molten.

I am now separated from my companions but I think I see the one with the blue lightsaber enter something like steel elevator doors. I follow and cautiously peer into a small corridor with gold shimmering beams of light along the walls. I can sense danger and I decide to pause. As I step back I see a new type of ominous looking droid materialize before me. I dodge a red streak of blaster fire as the doors close. I consider reentering to attack but my lightsaber is now acting crazy. There seems to be some red light poking out of the butt of the bat handle and the lightsaber and I am able to use my finger to push it back in. It doesn't hurt me and when I look back at the other end, I see that the beam of hot red death is now a harmless balloon. As I run away from battle I notice that I can hear air hissing into the balloon causing it to enlarge into an irregular shape. I try to hold back the air but the balloon continues to grow. I panic that I will be without a weapon and pat my side for a blaster. Then I remember that I can use the force and I drop the now useless lightsaber with new confidence.

I come to the end of a metallic corridor and find a large air duct. I recall that this was the way I sneaked in but I sort of feel that I am just making this all up now. I find the space is much smaller than I thought and as I try to squeeze in, I become super claustrophobic. I look for another way out and see Darleen from work exiting the corridor through a side door. I follow after her and wake up.

5:19AM (Snooze alarm)

I am at work and see there isn't much to do. I ask Darleen what the deal was and she said there was a problem in Engineering. She tells me that when is all resolved she will be "dancing with joy."
I jokingly ask, "Who is this Joy person?" Everyone laughs.

#311 - DILD - 12:48AM

I had these two lucid dreams while camping last night. I'm really excited about this because this is the first LD Ive had while camping let alone away from home. So awesome first for me!

The first one was a surprisingly long early LD which has been really rare lately. When I went to bed I was mildly drunk from earlier that evening. I did have some prebed peppermint tea mostly because it's just good and melatonin to help me sleep as I felt a little wired up because it was an early bedtime for me. I was shocked to become lucid even-though I had lucid dreaming on my mind, but I suppose it was a combination of light sleep, heavy ADA (for the past 10 days), and prebed goodies. I had totally planned a WBTB to enjoy some night time star gazing while I drink peppermint tea so I really wasn't trying to get lucid in the first part of the night.

I don't remember how this dream started but I find myself completely lucid in my ex-in-laws house. The feeling is that I either had a false waking or had a in-dream WILD. I am in the living room looking at my ex's mother, Karen. There are two kids running around that I assume are my daughters. I have some dialog and I'm feeling very mischievous. Karen seems to be afraid of me and wanting to ignore me. I told to say that she was a bitch. She repeats the line, "I'm a bitch." I find it amusing but the expression on her face kind of ruins it for me. Seems like a dumb mostly lifeless DC so I lose interest. I try to phase out the front door but the void over takes me so I go back in. I float around the room roaring and growling at Karen while she cowers on the recliner. I see her ceiling fan is on and I grab it as I float past. It flings me her direction and I take the opportunity to troll on her a little more. I land with my crotch in her face shouting "TEABAG!" Karen now looks like she is about to cry and this makes me feel a little bad for the whole thing. Feeling half crazy, I decide to control myself and leave. I have some fear that this entire dream will be in a place that I'd rather not be so I become more determined to leave. I remember that I wanted to work on my phasing so I chose to try to phase out the front door again. This time with purpose.

The same thing happen as last time but now I use the darkness of the void to form the front yard and driveway of their property from memory. It's familiar enough in my mind that this was an easy task. As I look deep into the void thinking of what I should see, the first image that forms is the wheel of the blue truck they once owned. I latch on to that and the rest clicks together. Things don't look quite like waking life but I let that go. There is some privacy fence and I think that I see my ex's brother out of the side of my vision. I turn my head to look as I run to the street but no one is there. When I look back in front of my there is a slight feeling of dizziness and the dream gets a little momentarily unstable. Not wanting to give power to instability and making it worse I continue on as if nothing happened.

I wander the neighbor by doing long slow hulk jumps to get around. Things looks mostly as it should but I felt directionless and lacking any good ideas. The only goal that I could recall was wanting to invent and terrorize other nearby campers but that was only if I had and OBE lucid. I become amused when I remember that my body isn't really in this place. I'm actually in a tent in the woods asleep! I'm also excited when I remember this is the first camping LD. I land on a rooftop and survey the area. I am now at the main road/intersection. I decide that maybe I could terrorize someone nearby.

There's a slight memory gap here but I think I must have spotted a lone woman walking on the street because the next thing I recall is running up behind her. I tell myself that I am monster. No. I'm a vampire! I feel myself grow powerful and larger. My nails become claws and my teeth grow. When I get close enough I bite down hard on the nape of her neck and suck. But instead of the flow of blood, I feel warm feminine skin on my lips and the suction is like I'm giving her a hickie. I become aroused and close my eyes as I put my hand in her crotch.

I stop myself from letting this continue like it is and leave the woman. I have a thought much like a daydream in the waking world but see the scenario play out before me. The woman who was only mildly attractive doesn't die but becomes a super beautiful vampire. We have a sexual connection because I was the one to turn her. We are now in some lumber yard. I watch from the shadows as she quickly turns three men to vampires. I become angry when I think that she now has a sexual connection to them. Jealously? Was lucidity slipping?

I jump on top of a large stack of plywood an begin looking for the woman to confront her on her actions. I find her on another stack and jump over to her. She goes into a low crouch as I move in close and I pause when we meet. Her face is in my crotch. I realize I am still aroused and she surprises my by opening the front of my jeans. I enjoy the sensation as I close my eyes. Again, I realize what I am doing and stop it before I have a wet dream.

When I open my eyes I am now standing over a toilet in some type of outhouse made of plywood. I turn to leave and I hear a woman's voice, "Yeah... that's a huge one." It sounds as if she was responding to something someone said. I recognize the voice as OpheliaBlue and assume I was listening to a DV podcast the whole time. I am totally confused now and wonder when I stopped listening to the first part of the conversation. I feel the earbuds in my ears and I strain to listen to the other person speak. What I get is the voice of one of the guys from GetLucid! US. He says, "One on water. One on water. One on water." I struggle to make sense of what he is saying as it turns to, "One to one. One to one." Then it becomes more garbbled like, "wonnaone" and "wonnawomanone" as I slowly wake up I realize my son had started snoring. The sound of seemed to match the pattern of the man speaking in my dream. I had to laugh at that.

Date: 10 Sept

Pre bed: 200 mg valerian

WBTB: 1/2 cappuccino

Dream quality and recall: very deep sleep, vivid but almost zero recall

TST: 7 hrs

Fragment: I didn't write down, something to do with Malaysia

Early mini-ld (+4 hrs): I am in some crazy deep sleep and see the thought of a boy band, very similar to Take That (maybe a video, or a picture in front of me). The moment I see this vision or whatever about them, with extreme speed one of the singers appears in the room in front of me, he is about 5 foot tall and the whole scene is mega bright and vivid. He is also wearing bright yellow clothes. This happens so fast, it jolts me into lucidity. I ignore him and rush to the balcony but feel the whole dream is very crazy - way too weird and dynamically changing. I can feel some strange and interesting dream stuff about to unwind in front of me as I am contemplating my actions on the balcony. I think it is too much for me to handle, so I wake myself up.

Contemplations: I know this dream isn't that unusual but the feeling of it bothered me. It wasn't a bad, negative one, there was even a touch of euphoria but I felt the dream was like a huge wave of energy about to produce extraordinary or distracting events that I wasn't mentally prepared to deal with. That's what happens when you take valerian and have early lds.

WBTB: coffee (26 mg caffeine) and mantras but zero recall after that
