lucid

I've been doing reality checks using a broken watch stopped at 1:42.58seconds pm. It's a really heavy and chunky watch I often notice myself wearing as well doing regular reality checks. I wasn't sure if being broken my totem would work, watches don't work properly in dreams and therefore would my watch remain broken fooling me. Anyway I was at the pool and doing a regular half hour reality check. I looked down at my watch, then did a double take. My watches hands were rapidly quivering. It was like they wanted to do what they had been made for, but couldn't. I was pretty stoked.

Don't remember using my lucidity, however next morning I had an amazing trip after a WBTB, did heaps of experiments like making people vanish, object change colour, levitation... all sorts. I was on quite a drought till then.

Fragment
Not sure what the rest of the dream content was... moret memorable was looking in the reflect of a sliding door and deciding to summon a dream character. I flipped through 5 people in the reflection before I chose one to walk out of the reflection and be real.

Dream
An epic and exhausting dream about an end of world apocalypse where I was constantly on the run from near miss death experiences... Dodging falling debris as earthquake brought down city sky scrapers. There was a cloud of strictnine (what ever that is?) that was toxic and was eating up the east of the city. It was fast spreading to me. I was in a car with other survivors and we were fleeing the cloud.

Soon we came a cross a wide river and some of us gave up hope. I managed to cross the river with 5 others as the cloud killed everyone else on the other side of the river we crossed. We become cornered and 5 of the survivors take cyanide pills and suicide. I am left with a girl to meet our ends.

As we are about to die we teleport to a kitchen where the girls mother is cooking something. The girl and I have a conversation, but suddenly I share the girls thoughts. She groans in despair, realising she has teleported back 7 years in her life to a time when she was locked in the house considered insane. I now share her mothers thoughts and what she see. She sees her daughter raving into thin air when talking to me.

Fragment
Surfing massive waves and eagerly walking with a fishing rod to the end of the pier to fish... but I get frustrated because I never get there and really want to catch a fish.

Reading another person dream journal about a bush of gloves made me remember a fragment of a dream several weeks old. There is this mad bush. Instead of leaves it has thick leather gloves. Its braches are like wooden poles. They are going round and round like a conveyer belt gone crazy! It terrifies me. Is it common to dream of bushes with gloves as leaves? What might it represent?
