      * I'm trying to sell a toy set for a fictional book, but the main character is missing.

      * A giant worm is destroying an underground area in a place vaguely resembling Hogwarts.


      * I seem to have travelled back to the early 1900s. I have repeated run-ins with two horses named "Neighborhood Horse 1" and "Neighborhood Horse 2". I am wearing a dress and seem to be much younger (about 10 or 11). Somehow, I am captured on video and spread all over YouTube, but the majority of people don't beleive what they're seeing.

      * A news broadcast is remembering the five things they will miss at that station.

      * I'm on a secret mission to find someone. An alarm goes off (not my wake up alarm). This scene repeats itself.

      I call the sound hypnagogic because I was trying to sleep in. When I went downstairs to check, Mom didn't seem like she had called me. Also I am no longer in school and do not go to work so there is no reason she should have called me. It was clearly my name.

      * I am on the Magic School Bus.

      * My mom is calling my name.

      * I am in my neighborhood. Apparently, I've travelled back to 1987. I am accompanied by a DC, and we go explore the end of the cul de sac. I apporach this grey house with a very steep driveway and a sign on the front door. The sign says that any person who wants to live in this house must eat dinner after dark.I try to read the rest but I get too dizzy. There are signs on other doors but we don't bother to read them because the driveways are too steep and one house requires you to climb a ladder before you can get in.

      NOTE: I tried FILD and I saw a "dream jumble" (basically a bunch of dreamlets spinning like clothes in a clothes dryer).

      This DJ entry was posted twice because I clicked "Save Draft" and ended up with a pesky pen and paper icon that I couldn't get rid of.

      * I am sitting on my front stoop, playing with a basset hound, a jack russel, and two french bulldogs (puppy and adult). But after I fail to fix a fence that separates my neighbor's backyard from mine, I start to feel really guilty and contemplate running away. Later I end up in my neighborhood in my pajama pants, sliding around on my butt like a toboggan.

      * I'm playing a videogame where Plankton (from Spongebob) is travelling to a metal island on which sits a metal fortress. When he arrives, he comes across a metal double door with blue electricity on it. Plankton says the door is "cold" and that he needs to get away from it. I get an eerie sense of an imminent explosion, which isn't helped by the eerie bass music in the background. I lead Plankton into the ocean. He drowns and loses a life. The scene starts over, only this time it's implied Plankton was captured by pirates. This time, after I lead Plankton a little bit away from the doors, I pause the game. Out of curiousity, I unpause the game for a short time. The game has turned into a let's play, but I still keep it paused.

      Whew! Finally got to recalling my nighttime dreams after three days of nothing!

      * A man and his kids are at this big indoor pool with many diving boards. The kids jump off the diving boards, then the dad. The dad nearly grazes the edge of the pool and creates some kind of fuzz that the kids think is gross. They are filming all this for a YouTube video titled "iPad Snow".

      * There is a big parade in a large city. The parade is grayscale, but the balloons are in color. I see myself from a distance in third person view, sneaking onto one of the floats.


      * Milhouse (from The Simpsons) is in my kitchen, washing out our cups.

      * Tintin (from the Tintin Comics) has changed his dog Snowy into a larger, taller version.

      TASK OF THE MONTH
      (Unconnected dreams indicated by a *. Connected dreams indicated by a •. )

      This dream was written in past tense because I was so excited at completing the basic task that I forgot to write in present tense.

      • I fell asleep at 7 AM and soon found myself in a dream. At first, I only thought I was waking up after my nap. But after I witnessed time shifting (first I saw the evening star, then it was morning again, then night) in front of my eyes out my window, I did a nose pinch RC and realised I was dreaming. I got out of bed and walked downstairs. I looked into the dining room where I saw my mom. I then had a false awakening. My suspicion caused me to do another RC. I could breathe, so I knew I was still dreaming. I went to the fridge and opened it, and saw it was full of pudding cups. I decided since this was a dream, I could eat as many as I wanted. I ate a burger and it tasted like the real thing but the flavor was a bit weaker. I tried to utilize some dream control by conjuring up a backpack to put the pudding cups in. The backpack didn't appear even after I believed it would (heard you should believe, not try), but I just pretended to unzip the backpack and put the pudding cups in. I then walked out the door, pretending to be carrying a backpack, and decided to take a walk. I then remembered that I wanted to do the task of the month, which was laugh in a DCs face. I walked past a few people, then came across a guy who was fixing his fence. I walked up to him and proceeded to laugh right in his face. It was weak laughter, but that was probably due to it being a dream. I DID try to raise my chin and laugh like a villian in a cartoon, no matter how weak the laughter was. The man didn't give me a response.

    9. No recall today, but here's an old lucid!

      I didn't recall any dreams this morning (still doing CAT), but here is a lucid dream I recorded on the 14th that I never posted here.

      I'm in a place that looks like a small grocery store, almost like Molsberry's Market. I remember to do a nose pinch RC, and I can breathe through my pinched nose. I do it again to double check. I realize I am dreaming and I decide to walk around the store, but my sister is there and I feel she is following me. I try to utilize some dream control by saying to myself "I'm alone in this store". When I reach the exit, there is a cashier there, but he doesn't say anything. My sister hands me a shopping cart and leads me to a kind of stunt ramp situated on a road bridge (those elevated highways you sometimes see). Utilizing my dream control again, I float myself up to the ramp. I get butterflies in my stomach but I try to push them down by reminding myself that I'm dreaming. There are some people, mostly guys, doing flips and dangerous stunts on the ramp. One guy lands in the nearby lake/ocean with a broken bike. My cart has turned into a bike and, even though I still know I'm dreaming, do not want to take such a risk.

      There is a slight improvement in dream control here (especially the floating part) but you see I have trouble controlling DCs (In childhood I had dreams where the DCs would scare me, either by popping in front of me suddenly, speaking loudly in gibberish, or I would get the eerie feeling I was being watched or followed.)

      First night of CAT, woke up in the night but I said to myself "Perservere!"

      I am in the first week so I won't be getting any LDs for a bit, just resetting my circadian clock. I also had a slice of colby jack 30 mins before bed. This dream was recorded around 6:20 AM.

      *Lilo and Stitch have traded species, with Stitch being a human and Lilo being an alien. Alien Lilo looks like a cross between the Thing and The Incredible Hulk.

      The first dream was recorded after I woke up at around 3:10 AM. The second two came after I fell back asleep (I was not doing WBTB, FILD, or any technique that requires you to wake up early).

      * A girl is discussing the difference between day fairies and night fairies with her fairy godparents.

      * My dad and I are in my room with a third person who could be my sister or someone else. There is an electrical outlet above my desk (in reality, it's behind it). There seems to be a chain of outlets, each one plugged in to the last. (Like this: {={={={)

      * Homer Simpson (of the Simpsons) is in my kitchen with a strange person. The person convinces Homer to drink four sips of beer, after which he is totally wasted and the person takes a picture of Homer standing in front of a group of people.

      *My mom gets a new car.

      *I'm in this waterpark that that wateeslides made of wood. I'm walking on this plank. On one side of me is a normal slide that leads to the deep end, the other is a tube slide that leads to the shallow end. I go down the tube slide.

      * I'm on this kind of spaceship. As I wander around, I seem to be taking this quiz on what seems to be the creator of a movie like Star Wars or something. When I answer wrong, I'm shown an image of a storeroom.


      * I'm "floating" (Think Google Earth) above North America. A Christmas miracle has apparently taken place. Everyone's doorbells are ringing and I see it as a line moving across the USA and Canada.

      * A guy is driving down a hill. As he is driving, he explains that the hill he is on is known for making you lose control. He ends up driving very fast and he laughs and says "Whoa".


      * Some clowns have taken over the TARDIS (From Doctor Who)and made it circus themed. Later The Doctor has to chase down the TARDIS as the clowns have taken off in it, but have not dematerialized, they're just flying.


      * I see a grid that shows different versions of Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer.

    13. The Old Printer, The Exclusive Club, and Doggy Doo.

      I did an experiment the previous night where I ate a banana before going to bed.

      * I am in what looks to be a rec center. There are two DC's (I'll call them DC X and DC Y). DC X is trying to print something on what looks like an old-fashioned printing press. I try to help and I try to stick brown strips of cellophane into the printing press. Eventually we manage to print a picture of a dog. DC Y is impressed. As DC X is preparing to print another picture of a dog (a papillion), DC Y takes me over to this area in front of a large flat-screen TV. The environmenr is now my parents' room. I tell DC Y about printers from my time.

      * I'm preparing to go for a walk. I put on my red duffle coat which somehow seems heavier than normal. I go on a quest to find some man's childhood home. I walk around in this neighborhood full of tall white houses with green trim. Some are like condos, others are five stories high. Presently, I come to a private club, with a picnic area, a pool, and a grassy feild. Moving trucks roam the area freely. Night falls suddenly, and people are gathering on the grassy area to watch fireworks. I decide I don't want to deal with loud fireworks. Two girls are told they must stay off the grass as they are not members, but they can stay nearby because they are the family of one of the members. Someone finds out I'm not a member and I'm escorted to the picnic area. There is pizza shaped cake and a tall square cake. I steal a slice of square cake from a young boy and laugh to myself. (I am not this evil irl)

      * I am in my den and I pick up Angel
      (shown in my profile pic). She wags her tail and gets super excited... then poops on my shirt. O.o. I put her down then look in Reader's Digest for how to remove dog poop from clothes.

      * A blue blob
      * A narration from a fake Goosebumps book.

      I am finally back on Dreamviews to update my dream journal. I will be keeping this journal in sync with a private journal, that way I can get in an entry every day without having to worry about posting anything embarassing.

      *I am on my driveway. Two people come up to me and start critising me about my shyness. I try to threaten them by asking them where in my neighborhood they live, then tell them to lay off the mean comments.

      • A cartoon boy and his dad shrink down very small and the dad is looking for the TV remote, all while blaming everything on his son.

      • The parents of the same cartoon boy are vacationing in the jungle. A huge green boa constrictor wraps itself around them. The mom screams.

      * I am watching a videogame ad that seems to be from the 80s, as it seems to treat home gaming like something cool and new


      * I go to the bathroom while trying to remember my dream.
