    1. Night of Sunday 11/5/23

      by , 11-07-2023 at 06:08 AM (Dreamlog)
      Went to bed around 12:00AM.

      Social Learning:
      My girlfriend and I are at a show. Reminds me of where I saw a comedian recently.
      We were seeing Game Grumps live.
      I see Arin sarcastically running through the crowd giving people high-fives and think how stupid those people are for being excited.
      But then he comes my way and I put my arms up, and I touch his finger. I get super excited, and think I get it now.
      At some point during the show the seating is gone and there are people sitting on the ground, with some tents set up at several points.
      My girlfriend and I tried to sit together but we ended up separated due to some social convention.
      She is further back, due to said social pressure.
      ...
      Later we are in an upper level area, maybe it was some sort of after party.
      It vaguely reminds me of my Grandma M's patio/garden.
      E from highschool marching band is there, and she looks older than I remember her.
      There is a documentary about WW2 on, and she gets visibly uncomfortable because she is German.
      The documentary is talking about how the war is over, but beware because evil tends to stick around.
      I can recall dropping my headphones several times and then trying to pick them up, but then they were inside the documentary and I couldn't.
      They are the white Bose NC700s that I no longer use.
      ...
      At some point the dream has transitioned into more of a comic-book theme.
      Captain Marvel is there, but he is a guy.
      We are on a spaceship.
      Captain Marvel changes into Superman, and teleports away.
      Somebody else explains that he was teleported away because he didn't have a real super power.
      I argue with this person and tell him that super-strength is definitely a super-power.
      My landlord is present and for some reason I need to change clothes in front of him.
      I'm hesitant, but he tells me I have done it before and it isn't a big deal.


      Recorded at 7:03AM.

      Slime Time:
      I'm in a first person shooter game, where my weapons is my hand throwing green slimeballs.
      The graphics are similar to that of Psychonauts 2.
      I can recall thinking at the time that the person playing should aim a bit lower that they want the ball to land.
      I'm now watching somebody else play the game.
      The player is trying to hit green slime monsters with the slimeball.
      The player makes the adjustment I am thinking about and starts to land hits.


      Recorded at 7:09AM.

      420 words for the night.
