    The Biggest Tool

    #410 - DEILD - 4:08AM

    WBTB @ 3AM. Caffeine from coffee.

    I wake slightly surprised that I can recall no dreams. I lay still and focus my attention a few inches from the crown of my head. Vibrations quickly start and it's not long until I feel my dream body float up from my physical body. There is a moment where I can feel both simultaneously and this causes an in-and-out-feel or 'bouncing' effect of my dream body. I shift my focus to walking and make my way to the living room. I am blind, but I feel like I just have my eyes close so I slowly and cautiously open them, worried that I will open my physical eyes and wake up. Luckily, this clears up the dream with no other effect. As I walk to the front door, I have a strange feeling like I am half crouched or hunched over and my eyes feel like they are trying to roll into the back of my head. I correct this by straightening up and trying to look more downward.

    Outside, I see a full moon and the yard is only lit by it's dim light. There's are a few scattered stars and I recall one of my goals to meditate on one with the intention of travel. As I look up my eyes go out of focus and the feeling of them rolling into the back of my head returns. Then, there is some visual distortion like my physical eyes have opened slightly. I make a poor attempt to correct this not really knowing how and I wake slightly again.

    I DEILD the same way as before, but this time when I reach the living room I enter a true void. Usually I have some phsycial sensation during these 'void' experiences, but this time I feel truely cut off from everything; no sight, no sound, no touch. I don't even feel like I have a body. Instead of fighting against it, I decide to relax and enjoy whatever I am given. I then regain some sensational and feel as if I am slowly floating around a space. I then begin to roll and I see a light on each rotation through closed eye lids. I had no sense of time and wondered if there was light coming from my bedroom window. Maybe it's later in the morning. I begin to wonder if I am going to roll on top of my wife. I think about this and decide to have dream sex with her. I kiss her, but the feeling quickly slips away.


    I am fooled momentarily by a false awakening. I open my eyes and find that I have in fact rolled on top of my wife except I have my butt in her face. I feel embarrassed and we both laugh. I quickly get back on my side of the bed and try to focus again to DEILD. I have a vivid image of my wife laughing, but her teeth look very brown and decayed like some meth-head's.



    I am repulsed by this, but quickly realize this is a dream. I say to myself, "You are still asleep!" I know this is true, but I feel as if I still need to continue with the DEILD. The same as before happens, but this time I enter into a vivid dream (I was already there).

    There is a mirror on covering one whole wall in the bedroom and I hear a song from an acoustic guitar. The music sound generic and unoriginal yet familiar. My reflection has a giant wrench in his hands and is singing into it while bobbing up and down.

    Like this guy.



    I feel disconnected from it for a second, but quickly we merge as I sing. I have that awkward moment where I am not sure if I am singing in my sleep or not, but I do my best to ignore it. The lyrics just come to me without much thought, "I've got some issues. Yeah some issues. I've got some issues. Yes I do." Then I use the wrench to play guitar with then into my crotch as I use it to do some pelvic thrusts. I turn to the mirror on my wife's closet door and dance a little in front of that. I go out of the room and the song changes, "I'm gonna make great love...great love...yeah great great love. I've got some issues yeah some issues but I'm gonna make great great great love." I recall another goal that involves a dub-step song to try to induce a Star Wars battle. I sing loudly, "Destroy them with lasers!" Unfortunately, the music doesn't change. I say out loud, "Oh ok. I guess we're gonna keep going with this then." I start to sing some more, but the dream quickly fades and I wake up.

      Congrats on the caffeinated ld series! Any estimate about the amount of caffeine?

      You probably shouldn't have included the rotten teeth pic, I think we got a pretty good idea even without it.

      Lol at the wrench mirror guy and the lyrics. Sounds like you had a lot of fun there!

      Thanks. I really dont know the caffeine content but I did measure out the coffee. It was a bit too much because I couldn't go back to sleep. I forgot to time it closer to my normal wake up time.

      Ah come on. I had to share the grossness with everyone. It was only fair.

      I guess it was fun. I had little control in this one and just had to go with it. I was just glad to get my mid week LD.

      I like the name of this entry

      Instead of fighting against it, I decide to relax and enjoy whatever I am given.
      I really love the way you dealt with the void here! I usually find that stressing over these things just makes the dream cling to the idea for longer... Much better to just enjoy whatever comes, and know that hiccups will correct themselves soon. An unexpected event might even turn out to be a really pleasant, interesting, or meditative experience.

      As for the rest of the dream, it sounds like you had fun belting out some lyrics and playing with your tool...
      Okay, I'm done.

      Ha! I love how your reflection is always doing something hilarious, whether it's sing into a giant wrench or having a surprise gender swap.

      Gaahhh, that teeth pic!

      I'm looking forward to getting caught back up on the rest of your journal! I'm really glad that you've been getting lucid and continuing to have so much success!

      Yeah I usually just ended up getting annoyed and disappointed when I struggle too much. It's best to go with the flow sometimes.

      The title was a pun! I not only did I have that giant wrench, but I felt like a total tool the way I was singing the horrible lyrics.

      For some reason mirrors keep getting weirder and weirder. You'll see in my next entry. I guess it's that I have come to understand that it's not really a reflection, but more of a DC/expectation.
