    Transitions and Music

    #241 - DEILD/OBE

    I am sitting at work on a Saturday. We have finished all of our work but it's only 8:30am. (My alarm clock from home is at my desk.) Someone hands out information about health insurance changes. I don't like it and say something flippant. Something makes me turn around and I see Obama. He says something about how this a good thing. I say something really rude about how I don't like it and don't believe him. He looks mad but keeps his cool. I begin to feel excited about telling the president off. He tells me that the form on the back has a place to address my concerns. I say oh like that's going to do any good. He says well its hard to tell lies from truths. I reply shit I've been thinking that since the day I was born brotha. I look at my alarm clock again and is it's now almost time to go home. I get ready to leave and wake up

    I decide to MILD from this dream and get vibrations starting into more of a DEILD. Suddenly a strong urge to pee brings me out of transition so I get up to take care of that and then go back to MILD. While going to the bathroom I see hallucinations in the dark though I know I am surely awake. There are images of grey aliens obscuring my vision like an after image from a bright light. I see through it as much as I can and ignore it unafraid. What happens next is confusing and my memory is bad.

    At some point I get back in transitional stage and have an OBE. There was lots of confusion and sensations but I manage to eventually get the dream started but its unstable as hell. I slowly crawl from my bedroom to the front door, felling the floor along the way for stability. Unfortunately, the moment to touch the door knob my dream ends and I DEILD back to the transitional stage.

    I feel really exhausted from my crawl and feel like it took so long. I really don't want to do that again so I just wait in my dream bed. I hear and feel my wife get up to go to the bathroom but think its probably the dream. The stereo is now in the bedroom and music begins to play. It sounds something like a mix of dubstep and southern rock. I enjoy the sound of it and summon a remote in my right hand. It feels more like a touch screen but I pretend like I am pushing a volume button. The music gets progressively louder and reaches a maximum. I try to go beyond that but can't. Then, the song ends and a more heavy metal song begins to play. I have no idea what the lyrics were because when I tried to focus on the words it sounded like gibberish. I continue to enjoy the music all they to a third song thought I don't think they were full songs. At some point, in the last song I begin to move to the beat but feel like I am physically shaking the bed and worry that my wife will wake. That thought makes me think I can hear her coming back from the bathroom and the volume of the music reduces drastically.

    I remember some fragment were I become aware while peeing. The sensation of it feels real and I worry about peeing the bed. This thought brings me back to bed.


    The there is a huge memory gap here but I have a vague indescribable memory of lucidity and get the feeling like there was more lucid parts. There was another odd transitional stage but the rest could be a false memory because the next dream I recall is about just that though the dream feels different.

    I vaguely remember having a FA from a "lucid" at my parents old house. Some really creepy stuff ghostly stuff happening that I took video of on my phone. After the FA I was able to view it and think that I must have been sleep walking the whole time. The video was really odd and confusing and hard to describe as anything other than visual gibberish.

      Nice! I liked that you thought to mix in the remote to take the element of the dream you were interested in (the music) and play with it just the way you wanted. And as it should be, even the President himself can't give you any lip in your lucids!

      I need to get some gotu kola, by the way! I still haven't ordered. What a slacker!

      Yeah I was a little surprised with the volume thing. It makes me wonder about other possibilities! Have you seen Click? Hehe.

      I think you'll like it. But don't feel bad I still haven’t got my G. I made a largish purchase for something else that my wife isn't very convinced of as being a worthy purchase. (Water distiller) So, I guess I'll have to wait until after Christmas.

      BTW I saw your 3 lucids! Congrats. I just can't keep up with the reading when you have those marathon nights.

      I have not seen Click but I remember thinking the concept looked really neat. (And wished life worked that way... which it can in an LD!)

      Your wife wasn't convinced that G is worth the money? Did you not tell her how during lucid dreams you are able to smash through solid doors using nothing but a pelvic thrust?? You need to tell her these things so she can understand where this hard-earned money is going!

      Thanks, man! No worries, I know how it can be keeping up... hey if you do get a chance, though, the "Travel Buddy" one had an encounter with a "smart DC" that was cool. I always love those!

      Congrats on staying so consistent, even though you're just using carefully distilled water rather than G!

      Some very trippy stuff there with the aliens and light in the dark. Sometimes when I wake from deep sleep in the middle of the night and go to the bathroom, I can still feel the dream pulling me back and I worry I might fall asleep in the bathroom. Luckily no special effects so far.

      I liked your music experience too. We've got to learn how to work with a music making program.
