Zeek: Thanks for the congrats. Those two lucids seem like they're really long but in reality they probably only lasted a few minutes. Just takes forever to write them out. And I never realize the strangeness of my thought processes in dreams until I actually do write them down and re read them.
No hard feelings about the aim thing. I was just logging off and wanted to toss you a hello so you wouldn't think I was being a snob or ignoring you.

jjm: Back again I see. Welcome. Hopefully you'll stick around longer this time.
And yeah, it's up to 27 pages. Over 700 dreams crammed in here. I always kid that my mind is basically empty during the day and that at night it's overactive, probably to balance everything all out.

Tuesday Dec. 12th

1- MJ Moved In

Lived in a new upper apartment. The walls were spotless white and I barely had anything in the place. No pictures on the walls, no furniture in the rooms. Despite the emptiness I felt completely at ease in the place.
Came into the living room and there saw my sister MJ laying on a foldout couch. She was covered in a blanket. I wondered... wtf? How did she find me and wft is she doing sleeping here? Before I could ask she launched into some sob story. I sat on the end of the couch and listened.
A while later her son crawled out from under the blanket. He stumbled over and gave me a hug, slobbering on me as he did. He then crawled off the couch. MJ tossed the covers off herself and to my disgust she was only laying there in her underwear. I threw the covers back on her and told her to put some effin clothes on.
I then followed her son around the house. He opened a door into a bedroom and I was surprised to see a little girl of about 5 laying in bed. MJ's son said, quite clearly, "Scoobie's here". The little girl woke up and slid from the bed. She got on her hands and knees and acted like a baby as she greeted MJ's 1 yr old.

2- The Secret Chambers/Attempted Photography

Was with some guy, can't remember what he looked like but have the distinct feeling he was vampire-ish. We crept down some stairs and into an old stone basement. To the left side of the stairs was a long dark passage which I knew lead to a group of people that, for lack of a better description, seemed like satan worshipers. I think we were supposed to trap them all in there but we heard someone coming up the long passage.

Me and Vamp guy hid behind the stairs in the shadows. The person who came out was wearing a long white robe and a hood. Couldn't see his face. He left again and we were about to come out from our hiding place when we noticed a doorway on the right side of the stairs, one we'd fail to notice earlier. We both went inside an it was only a large empty room. One of us must have tripped some sort of trigger because the wall farthest from us vanished as if it had been a mirage. The real wall was reavealed. It had a huge hole in it. Vamp and I dashed over and looked in. It was dimly lit and packed with heaps of gold and silver artifacts.
I climbed in right away, careful of where I stepped because the floor was carpeted in treasure. Vamp kept tellng me to be careful, he seemed afraid of the room and it's contents. I was fascinated by them. I had no lust for the riches. What fascinated me was the apparent ancinetness of the treasure. I rummaged through it, sure I would find something of great importance.

Swords in golden sheaths poked out of the piles of treasure every so often. I made my way to one and grabbed the hilt. I slowly pulled the sword out. I looked at Vamp and said, "Think of it, the last hands that wrapped around this hilt might have been a knight, or even royalty."

I pulled the sword out of it's casing to discover that the on the last few inches of the blade looked like a silver peacock feather. I burst out laughing and waved it around in the room. "They must have tickeled each other to death in the old days." I mentioned. As I turned to face Vamp the sword turned into a thin blade that looked like a fencing foil. The end was still feathery, I lunged at Vamp and yelled, "En guard!" Then smacked him in the face with the feather end. He didn't like that very much but ended up snickering and called me crazy.

I happened to glance up and saw another doorway. I tossed the sword down and told Vamp I was going deeper. I had the feeling that the treasure was only there as a distraction, the real good stuff was deeper. He tried to call me back but I ignored him and stepped into the hallway. The floor was dirt and littered with broken pottery. To the right was a closed doorway. I passed it and went deeper. I came to a right turn and took it. The passage way sloped downward, it was dimly lit. It's floor was still dirt. Only then did I realize I was barefoot. I could feel the grains of dirt and small stones irritating the bottoms of my feet.

I continued to the end and came to another right turn. I followed and it lead into a massive empty chamber. Looked like a grand meeting hall that belonged in a castle. Vamp's voice could be faintly heard so I made my way back up to him and peeked out of the passage. I tried to convince him to come with me to explore but he refused. "Suit yourself, pussy." I said, slightly disappointed because I really did want him to come with me.

I went back down the shattered pottery hallway and decided to check out the first door I'd seen and passed. I opened it and stepped in. Something that sounded like a massive generator roared within. It was dark in the room and I wished it was lighter, upon that thought the room brightened a little. There was a monsterous generator in the room. It was an amazing sight. Thick, spiralled chords of wires and liquid filled rubber hoses lead from the generator and hung all over the room, most disappearing through holes in the walls. I was amazed that the people from centuries ago had actually harnessed electricity. I was so in wonder of the discovery that I dashed back out of the room, up the 'shattered' passage and to the treasure room. I was about to tell Vamp about my discovery but he motioned for me to be quiet and he took off. I slinked back into the passage and hid.

A guy in a dark robe climbed down into the hole in the wall. He picked up the sword I'd been playing with and inspected it before taking it with him when he climbed out of the room again. The hole in the wall disappeared. It became solid.

Claustrophobia suddenly set in. I knew I was trapped in the place. There had to be another way out. I ran back down the shattered hallway and was going to go down the dirt passage but turned back. I wondered why the left wall had no doors. I moved along it and pushed on the wall every so often. Suddenly a part of the wall gave way. It swung inward like a door. I was about to charge in when a man stepped in and closed the door almost all the way again. I asked him if there was another exit. He shook his head negatively and slammed the door in my face. I tried to push back in but it wouldn't budge.

Panicing, I dashed back toward the decending dirt passage. I charged down it and instead of coming to the massive meeting chamber at the bottom the passagway turned into an large elegant stairway. I dashed down to the landing where the stairway split off to the left and the right, great magnificent curved stairways that looked as if they belonged in an elegant castle.

I came to a stop when someone approached me. It was a man and a woman. Their presence startled me. I hadn't expected anyone to be there. The couple were gorgeously dressed and seemed to be older than time. Though they looked as if they were in their late twenties their eyes seemed to be saturated with age.

The man spoke to me but I can't remember what he said. He left me and his lady friend alone together. It was hard to keep my eyes off her. She was brilliantly beautiful, not just outwardly but it radiated from her like a warmth I wanted to get closer to. She pointed to my chest and asked, "What is that?"

I looked down to see my camera, my canon rebel, was dangling from my neck. I picked it up and inspected it to make sure it was in one piece, then held it out to show her. Told her it was called a camera and that it could capture images of people and things. I explained how it worked, as simply as I could. The woman was fascinated by it and wanted me to capture her image. She wanted to give her husband a photoimage of herself.

I sat her on the edge of the railing beside a vase filled with sprays of deep red roses. To the other side of her was a window through which light poured through a thin white drapery. It cast a diffused and even glow onto the woman's delecate features. I told her to face the window a bit more. She plucked a rose from the vase, held it close to her lips and then looked back at me, asked it that positon was okay. I looked at her over the camera and nodded eagerly. It would be a perfect portrait.

However, when I looked back through the viewfinder the woman was gone. I moved to the railing to see that she was down a level, sitting on a railing down there. I aimed the camera at her, the portrait was still a lovely one because now i could see the ends of her gown splayed gracefully out upon the floor. I was about to take the photo when a voice startled me. To my right was a woman in a maid type outfit. To my right was a child's head. It was almost perfectly oval and it was alive. It looked over the edge of the railing and suddenly my fear of heights kicked in. I felt dizzy from seeing that head perched dangerously on the very edge of the railing.

I kept trying to take the beautiful woman's photo but the maid and the head kept distracting me. Each time I looked back at the beautiful woman she seemed to be a little bit farther away from me and I had to zoom the lens ever so slightly and then refocus her.

Never got the photo done, not that I can recall.

(damn that took forever to type out)

The Secret Chambers/Attempted Photography:
Great dream, Vex. The imagery was amazing. Well-told, also.

I pulled the sword out of it's casing to discover that the on the last few inches of the blade looked like a silver peacock feather. I burst out laughing and waved it around in the room. "They must have tickeled each other to death in the old days." I mentioned. As I turned to face Vamp the sword turned into a thin blade that looked like a fencing foil. The end was still feathery, I lunged at Vamp and yelled, "En guard!" Then smacked him in the face with the feather end. He didn't like that very much but ended up snickering and called me crazy.

Hahahaha.

Well, it's your head that dreamt it up

**Vex Kitten** · 12-18-2006 04:23 PM

My computer crapped out a few days ago. I'll catch up as soon as my comp is back up and running.

Legendary?

stupendiousnatastical... ??? I think I almost burst a blood vessel in my brain trying to make out that word this morning.

**ezekiel7** · 12-19-2006 02:58 PM

Then you need more brain excercises hehe, you should try to decipher my dreams =P lol, no... I don't want to kill you.

Edit: Welcome Back!!!! *lol*

**Vex Kitten** · 12-20-2006 09:46 AM

Thanks for dropping in, everyone.

My motherboard/CPU fizzled out on me last week. Found out that repairs would cost more than buying a new compy, so I just yesterday got another one. Merry Christmas to me... I had to use my vacation savings to buy me a new pc. But anyway, can't sleep tonight. Horrible week, really horrible day and evening here. So figured I'd post what few dreams I recalled over the past few days.

1- Art Class

Argued with someone over the telephone about an art class I'd wanted to take. They said I wasn't qualified but I knew I was more than qualified to take the stupid class.

2- Visiting TH

Only recall visiting my cousin TH. Some sort of family gathering, cars parked all over the property. Dont recall much more than that aside from the lingering feeling of sadness.

<< 800 >></span>
3- B-Ford Battle

Some sort of battle happened in this city. Had something to do with a white supremisist. Recall strong feelings of rage but can't recall what enraged me. Ended up standing atop a building to watch the chaos below.

<span style="color:#CC0000">Sun Dec 17th

1- Mothman & Tunnels

Me and some scientist type people were exploring underground tunnels, we suspected it was the hiding place of the Mothman. One of the researchers was dressed in a moth outfit, curly little antena bobbed around atop his head. I kept looking at the antenae and the costume, thinking that was the stupidest get up I'd ever seen.
Found a chamber full of fat cocoons. As I set sight on it I knew something bad was coming. The mothman appeared, he looked like the very first photo I'd seen of that creature, mothlike wings and huge glowing bug eyes. The cocoons started twitching and huge slimy maggots burst out of them. We fled.
The tunnels became really narrow and small. I ended up the last person. Looked back behind me and saw the maggots wriggling closer to me. I wished I hadn't been the last one to run and my wish came true. I was at the head of the escapees. Looked behind me and saw the maggots overtake and consume the others.
I got out of the tunnels and thought I was safe but the mothman appeared out of nowhere and came toward me. I ran and spent the rest of this dream trying to hide from that thing.

2- Runaway

My nephew KG ran away from my sister and we searched high and low for him. We were in a big park that had huge stones sprinkled throughout. I noticed that one of the stones was hollow and could see my nephew's feet sticking out from under it. We tried to coax him out of the stone but he wouldn't come.

3- TH/Grams the Garden & the Telephone

MY gram's house was a splice of hers and TH's house. A lot of people were outside and it was my personal mission to keep them out of the house. Kept the doors and windows locked and had the only key. No one got in except me.
Outside, I left the others to their own business and I started pulling weeds out of the garden that sprawled along the front of her house. The garden was just growing, freshly sprouted sunflower plants were scattered through the weeds. I meticulously picked out the weeds and tried my hardest to leave the sunflowers to grow.
When I finished this I went back into the house to use the phone. It was a small cell phone that wouldn't dial. I opened up the battery compartment and a set of keys on a keychain, some latched together paperclips and other assorted junk spilled out. Once I was sure the compartment was clean I called a number. I asked for a ride somewhere and then tried to hang up. The cell phone wouldn't shut off or disconnect from whoever I was talking to.

Had a bunch of dreams last night but had to get out of the house extra early and now I can't remember them at all.

Zeek: Sooo nice to see someone who doesn't want me dead.

I missed DV so much.
Lord I'm a nerd.

**oneironut** · 12-20-2006 11:17 AM

Apparently I'm done sleeping for the night, but at least I get to be the first to say: WELCOME BACK!

I missed DV so much.
Lord I'm a nerd.

[/b]

Lol, you should've seen me the day the server crashed. I was opening my browser practically every hour. My name is oneironut, and I'm a journalaholic, haha.

**ezekiel7** · 12-20-2006 11:42 AM

I edited so I was the first one to say welcome back muahahaha, i've been having SOME success with my dreams. Like recall during the day and even a couple days later. I had a dream that I bought a WII in Mexico for $249. Also I got a ski boat out of the water with my brother, out by some lake, and my cousin and I were discussing going to mexico, and my parents said it cost 10,000 $ so my cousin and I decided it would never really happen, and it would just be one of those things that we keep talking about but never do. Hah! mUA! ha.. lala..

**ezekiel7** · 12-20-2006 12:29 PM

3- Little House on the Prairie?

No clue where this dream came from but I was in that house from that show, up in the second level. I looked down and watched the father and mother from that show. They were in a totally modern tub, a hot tub or jacuzzi I think. And they were... naked. I'd never been in one so I sneaked down and slipped into it with them. I moved down over the jet of bubbles so my tale bone was massaged by the jet of water. Felt amazing.
Looked at the others, the woman was dead, floating face down in the water. The guy scooped her out and put powder or flour all over her body and then poured something else over it. I didn't care. I had the tub to myself. No matter to me what he did with his wife's corpse. [/b]

...that's sad... I like that show. Anyway? Why would you put a jet of bubbles on your tale bone of all places? I'm guessing it wasn't just your tale bone... hah... poor house on the prairie.

**ezekiel7** · 12-20-2006 02:46 PM

It is now 6 am on .. 6:01 on my comp clock... hi!

**Vex Kitten** · 12-20-2006 10:16 PM

Thanks for the welcomes back oneironut & zeek... even if one was edited in later.

Got a lot of reading to catch up on. I'll save the reading of dream journals for later tonight when all the giggling and sickeningly happy kids have gone home.

1- Lizard Lost & Sinkholes

Was helping a glitzy woman look for her pet lizard. We went outside and searched under her house which sat on wooden pillars. We found it but couldn't catch it. It was too quick. It darted out from under the house and I gave chase. Grabbed it and stood up but suddenly my one leg sank knee deep into the sand. I moved a little and my other leg sank in too. I spread out my arms as I contiued to sink, hoping they would keep me from completely submerging in the sand.
I managed to ease out of the sand. As I dragged my legs away the sand all collapsed and there was a huge sink hole there. I tried to run but my legs sank into the sand again. I eased out and another sink hole appeared. I carefully made my way across the sand as sinkholes appeared every so often. I lost the lizard in one of the holes.

2- Ants & The Reclamation Sight

Was at the reclamation site in Cal. I wandered off on my own and followed the gravel drive way that lead to the south. Half way there I looked down and saw a thick trail of huge black ants. I follwed them. The trail was clotted and twitching with the insects. Some parts of the trail looked like nothing more than wriggling mounds of black.
As I followed the trail it slowly widened. I became determined to find the ant hill that they orignated from.

3- TrG's Rounded Floor

Cleaned TrG's house. Me and her sister were constantly arranging and cleaning because the place was full of kids who kept throwing stuff onto the floor.
As I swept nearer to the wall I noticed that the planks arced sharply downward creating a little steep hill in the living room. I slid down it and swept at the bottom and asked T why she built her floor like that. T didn't know so I kept sweeping. I stayed down at the foot of the floor hill. *shrugs* Constant head aches make for dull and pointless dreams.

Thursday Dec 21st

1- Swimming w/ Cat

Was in a swimming pool, had a kitten sitting on my stomach as I floated on my back enjoying the sun. The kitten kept jumping into the water and swimming off, nearly drowning each time. I had to chase after it and scoop it out of the water. After a while I put it on the edge of the pool in the hopes it would stay out of the water but it jumped back in and swam towards me again. I had to save it and put it on my stomach again so it wouldn't drown.
A curly headed little kid swam next to me. He said something about his stomach hurting. I looked under the water and saw what looked like loops of his intestines hanging out of his stomach and swaying in the water. This startled me so much that I backed out of the pool. Bumped into a band that had set up there instruments in the water. They started playing and some chick in a white t-shirt started dancing and singing. Her shirt was drenched and her nipples were very very visible through it. This angered me because there were kids swimming in the area. At the thought of kids I remembered the kid with the falling out instestines. I scrambled out of the pool and left, carrying the drenched kitten with me.

2- Treasure Hunters

Can't honestly recall if we were in a low flying plane, helicopter or flying on our own, but me and someone else soared above a rocky desert landscape. Every so often we'd see man made symbols or holes carved into the very tops of the highest rocks. In dream I understood that they were clues to possible hidden treasures.
We ended up sitting on perfectly square outcroppings on the steep side of a huge rock. At the top of the rock was a square hole that had been hacked into it. I looked down and for an instant thought we were perhaps hundreds of meters up the rock face. Upon closer inspection I noticed that it was an optical illusion, the shapes of the rocks below us and the mini cacti plants created the illusion.
I slid off and hang dropped from my rock and looked up. Saw a figure atop the rock looking down at us. My partner dropped too and we pressed against the rock to try hide from the person, thinking it was trying to follow us to the treasure.
After a few minutes of unsuccesfull concealment the guy yelled down, "I'm going to jump!" Thinking I was about to witness the guy splatter on the ground near to us I yelled up, "Go for it!" The guy leapt and spun so that he would land on his back. He hit a big mound of dirt near to us and instead of splatting he simply bounced up again as if he'd landed in a trampoline. The guy rolled off and said, "I dont know what's under that but it's been there forever."
I suddenly posessed a curved sword and poked at the sand dune with it. It jiggled a little and I was about to hack into it to see what was under but the guy said something and caught my attention. I turned on him and pressed the tip of the sword into his chest, pushed him back against the rock wall. Took a good look at him then, he was in his teens, had shaggy blond hair, light eyes. Seemed familiar. He was shirtless, had freckles on his shoulders, only wore baggy cargo pants. HE launched into some long story of how he knew me. I didn't know who he was and decided to kill him. Instead I sent him with my partner to kill. As they left i whacked blondie across the ass with the flat side of my sword. He turned and smiled at me. His grin almost sparked recognition. He and my partner left. I figured that if the guy was important I'd remember him.

3- Cloud Man

Riding with my mother (who drives terribly slow). I kept my eyes on the stormy looking sky. Mentioned that it looked like tornado weather. Happened to glance out the rear window and sure enough saw a funnel cloud poke down from the clouds. I told my mother to step on it. She said she wasn't worried, that we were east, tornadoes never travel east.
I kept my eye on the tornado. It fattened quickly and began to wobble as if it were going to fall apart. Instaed of disapating it spread wider and formed into a massive humanoid shape. I saw its head turne to look in our direction and it started walking for us.
My mother saw it and only then did she floor it. The car barely went any faster. We got into O-town and I jumped from the moving car. Ran into the doc's office to find shelter in the basement. Everyone esle started panicing as the cloudman approached. I dove for the elevator but some chick got there before me. She pried the doors open and jumped down onto the top of the elevator. It stopped.
Cloudman came to the building searching for me. His hand reached in throught the doors and windows trying to grab me. I fled outside again and ran into another building. People screamed and stampeded all around as cloudman reached into the new building and kept trying to grab me.
At some point I realized that it was only a cloud, nothing more than a mass of water droplets. I stood still and let cloudman's hand wrap around me. At first it squeezed me so hard I thought my head was going to pop off but I squirmed a bit and simply walked out of his grip. He wasn't solid. After that his hand spilled apart and made the room foggy for a few seconds. When the fog cleared I knew cloud man was gone.
I walked home, got there and turned on the computer to write out what had happened.

4- Top of the World Restaurant

Me and a few others stood at the base of a building that looked like the CN tower, but it was higher and had no elevators. Steel stairs spiralled up the narrow stem of the building all the way to the restaurant on top. Everyone kept pestering me to walk up the stairs with them. I couldn't. Too afraid of heights.
Happened to glance over and saw a second wider set of stairs that lead away from the tower. Even though they lead away I knew they'd take me to the restaurant. I opted to take the wider straight set of stairs.
Walked forever up the stairs. When I got to the top there was a fence surrounding the walkway. I dared to look over it. My stomach felt as if it flopped over about three times when I saw how high up I was. I backed away and continued on to the restaraunt. Nearly stepped on a purple flower that had sprouted out from a crack in the sidewalk. I stared at it for a long time trying to figure out what it was. I decided it was a crocus and was tempted to pick it. Decided to leave it seeing as how it had struggled to bloom in such an near impossible circumstance.
Got into the restarant only to find it was a really cheap and greasy burger joint. I 'd thought it was supposed to be a fine dining place. Disappointed but hungry, I waited my turn in line behind a bunch of kids who couldn't decide what they wanted. When it came time for the kids to pay they didnt' have enough money. "For the love of Christ!" I yelled and fished some bills out of my pocket and paid for their meal. I then ordered a mushroom bacon burger (something I haven't eaten in years and can't eat irl). I then couldn't find my comapions who were supposed to have met me. I carefully looked out the window and far far below could see that they hadn't even started up the stairs yet. I flopped back in my seat and ate my burger, hating the bastards below me and the indecisive and moneyless kids in the restaurant.

5- Seussy World

Up on the top floor of a building I found an oddly shaped door. IT was a curved door of wood set in a wall of concrete. I opened the door and went in.
Beyond the door was a place that was so vividly and oddly colored that it was hard to look at some of the clashing hues. The citizens were even odder. They looked like characters out of a Dr. Suess book. I couldn't help but stare at them as I made my way through. They stared at me as if I were the freakiest looking thing they'd ever seen too. One of them passed me and muttered.. "Not another one. We really should lock that door."
Made my way to a huge hall. A bunch of the characters stood in line holding their footware. Curious as to what was going on I scooped up a pink slipper from the floor and stood in line too. When finally I got up on stage, I watched in horror and amazement as one of the characters laid on a medical bed. At the foot of the bed was a circular saw. The guy operating the saw brought it down on the char's feet and shaved the bottom of each of each foot off. The char then got up and walked away, tossed his shoes into a mountainous pile in the shadows of the stage.
I dropped my slipper and ran out onto mid stage and gave a very long winded and emotional speech about the wrongness of what the guy was doing to their feet. (it was stupid and didn't really make any sense but it convinced the people that they were being wronged)
I was ushered off the stage and some high and mighty critter that sort of looked like the grinch demanded I leave their world, that I didn't know anything about their ways and what was good for his subjects. He then decreed that all humans were to be cast out from their world .. never to return.
A few other people stood up and left. I dashed into the crowd and found a guy that was apparently in a costume. He was dressed like the cat in the hat. I begged him to help me stay there. He ignored me and then up and left, tried to get away from me. I followed him and continually pleaded for him to hide me. I couldn't leave the place, I'd only just found it. The guy, who I simply called, Cat, totally ignored me. He left out the massive arced door. I followed. As I stepped through the door slammed shut and locked.
The guy in the costume ran down the stairs. I charged after him calling, "Cat! Wait, I need you!" When I got to the main floor Cat's costume was laying on the floor. I saw a man round a corner and disappear. I chased after him. He got into a little red sporty looking car and sped off. I ran after him and before he disappeared I caught his license plate number. It said somthing like GOBACK or GETBACK. I stopped running and watched as his car disappeared down the road. Realized I was standing in a puddle of water. My feet were bare and cold.
Turned and walked back to the building. I tried to find the doorway again but it seemed to have disappeared. I knew it was still in the building somewhere. I looked for it, knowing I'd find it sooner or later because I'm just stubborn like that.

***edited to add I had pizza hut last night and an ensuing sore stomach for hours afterward, might be a contributing factor to the oddness, lenght & vividity of the dreams. (pizza may be a dream enhancer for me)

**Oneironaut Zero** · 12-21-2006 07:22 PM

1- Swimming w/ Cat
Haha. Weird. I like the whole "band in the pool" concept.

3- Cloud Man
That was pretty dope. I can just imagine all of the people running and screaming around you as the cloud man was chasing after you.

**Vex Kitten** · 12-21-2006 09:17 PM

Oneironaut, Hi! My dreams last night were odd, not just subject wise but they were intensely vivid. I'm thinking the pizza had something to do with that.

I'm anxious to get over to your journal, as well as quite a few others and catch up. The xmas season is seriously cutting into my internet time.

Friday Dec 22nd

1- Yellowing World

Inside a house but I couldn't wait to get out to see the garden When eventually we got out there I saw 2 yellow birds. Can't remember what kind of birds they were but I do remember they were not supposed to be yellow.
We then noticed that all the flowers and leaves were also yellow or tinged with a yellowish hue that spread out from the center of the leaf. There was also a tall multi stemmed sunflower plant that no matter which I moved to look at the flowers were always facing away from me. Me and the garden owner looked over the garden speculating why everything was turning yellow.

2- Mes and Attempted Abduction of Little K

This dream was split, I was both the kidnapper and myself. I was a tall lanky guy in my 40's, slightly balding and had a mustache. I was looking to kidnap K. She was only 3 in this dream. I followed the real me and K around in an antique shop, waiting for the opportunity to snatch her.
Me and K were checking out the cameos in a display case. There were tonns of them and I wanted to buy some but couldn't decide which to purchase. I was also aware that there was someone wanting to kidnap K but for some reason the cameos seemed more important than her. She wandered off.
The kidnapper me followed K around the store. D came up behind real me and asked where K was. I realized she was in terrible danger and dropped everything, unable to believe how stupid I was to let her slip away. I was relieved to see that kidnapper me was standing in line behind D with an armful of dvd's or games. I took off to find K.
I found her in the book section of the store. She was by an open door. I ran over and closed it and grabbed K by the hand. We went to stand in line with D but he was chatting like old buddies with kidnapper me. This pissed me off monstrously. Kidnapper me then dropped his stack of movies and D helped him pick them back up. I glared at kidnapper me, who only smiled back. I was suddenly filled with the urge to kill the other me. If K wasn't with me I know I would have attacked and attempted to kill the kidnapper.
I took K and we left the store. We waited for a bus or a cab to pick us up, me all the while on the loookout for the kidnapper.

3- Old Carnival

Remember crossing a narrow walkway, similar to one that goes over highways or busy streets. As I came down the bridge I saw a silver and yellow car. Don't know why, I yelled out WOOOO!. The people with me assumed I was saying it about the car, as did the owners of the car, who waved at me. I walked on wondering why I'd yelled out like that.
Came to a street that was lined with fair vendors. We all stopped and watched a huge guy eating 3 towering stacks of pancakes. I found this boring and looked up at the clock hanging behind him. Can't remember the time but I knew time was running out. I left the others to watch them man stuff his face. I needed to find some cotton candy or popcorn.
Walked down the hill, the further I went the more abandoned the street got. There were barely any people and there were a lot of stores and restaurants but none seemed to sell cotton candy or popcorn. I went further. Ended up inside a huge building in which carnival rides were stored. The place was completely abandoned. I roamed around looking at the cob webby and rusted rides and suddenly remembered I'd been there before when the place was full of life. Felt incredibly sad that the place was abandoned and I strolled through the area remembering happier times at the carnival.

You were two people at once? How did you manage that... lol
Were you only 'in' the kidnapper, but watching someone in your body?
Or did it keep switching back and forth?

Pretty sure I've never been two people at once in a dream...that's pretty interesting.

Hey Placebo & Krista.

The dream shifted back and forth between people but as I was one character I had the feeling that the other could sense me and vaguely knew about me. We were constantly aware of each other but the feeling was nothing more than that annoying sensation of being stared at.

I'm pretty sure that dream came about from an xfiles story I read that day called Empathy. It's about a 30 yr old former kidnap victim who physically exhibits the trama experienced by a recently abducted 15 year old girl. Twas an interesting story.

1- The Black Bra
This dream basically consisted of me strugglin to adjust myself into a black bra that was too small. It was the only bra I had left.

2- Bon Jovi Carol

Recall a choir that was lead by Bon Jovi. They walked down the middle of a street singing a christmas carol. Can't remember which it was. It was a very odd situation that nearly made me lucid.

3-Battle in the Hills

Flew a plane. Didn't see what kind it was but I knew it was a massive army cargo plane. The engines cut and we plummeted to earth. Below was a desert. Somehow I managed to survive the crash. A group of people appeared from no where and carried me to their village despite me being their enemy.
They fixed me up as good as new, fed me, talked to me but they spoke in a language I didn't understand. As I ate I glanced out the window. Saw the rest of the village. It was small and consisted of nothing more than adobe type huts. In the sky a bunch of specs formed. I knew what they were immediately, more planes coming in to attack.
The planes soared over and the blue was suddenly speckled with white dots as hundreds of paratroopers decended upon us. They landed and started slaughtering everyone. I didn't understand why. The people in the village were no threat at all.
I ran outside and attacked a couple of trooper who were about to bash some kid's head in. They called me a traitor and turned their weapons on me. The villagers attacked them and we ened up charging through the village trying to pick off the endless streams of troopers attacking.

4- Dream Journalling in Dream

Had a FA. I woke up and immediately rummaged for a book to jot my dreams down in. I grabbed the green sketch book and started scribbling away. The entry took a couple of pages, five dreams, the title of each dream began with a B. When I flipped back to review my entry the pages were blank. This paniced me and I woke up immediately.

1- 2 Bears

Was outside my house cleaning. Trees were bare and it was cold. Couldn't wait to get inside. A huge black bear charged me from out of nowhere. I froze on the spot. It looked as if it were going to shred me apart. It skidded to a halt and roared right in my face. I was so afraid I felt as if I were going to faint. The bear bit down on my arm but it only caught the edge of my jacket. It dragged me along with it. I was too terrified to do anything but follow.
We came to an area where a tiny bearcub was playing on a picnic table. The huge bear pushed me toward the cub. I understood that I was supposed to stay and take care of the baby bear. I sat on the table and pet the cub. It was really playful like a hyper kitten. As I played with the cub the huge black bear lumbered off.
I stayed and continued to play with the cub. Forgot about how cold I was.

2- Cleaning & Bees

I recall coming out of my bedroom closet after frantically searching for something that I didn't find. I made my way to the kitchen. It was a mess. Dishes and garbage everywhere. I moved to the sink and noticed that the right sink was longer and much deeper than the left sink. I wondered when the new sink had been installed as I removed the mountains of dishes from the long sink.
In the bottom of that long sink was a couple of inches of filthy water. IT was full of large yellow bees that squirmed and crawled sluggishly over each other. Not wanting to get stung, I used a long knife to dislodge the sink plug then I tried to cram as many of the bees down the drain as possible. The rest I carefully scooped out and tossed in the garbage. Once the sink was cleaned out I readied to do dishes.
I checked the cubboard under the sink for some dish soap. I noticed that the cupboard doors were of glass, as were the drawers. Everything was neatly arranged in each. The thing that annoyed me was the doors and drawers wouldn't close properly. They wouldn't close or were crooked and warped. I became obsessed with trying to make the glass doors and drawers close like they were supposed to.

3- Cardboard Metropolis

Walked through a huge city with a bunch of familiar people whom I can't recall since I woke up. As we walked I gazed up at the sky scrapers. I realized that they were made of cardboard with hundreds of windows painted on them. I looked around at the rest of the city. All of the buildings were the same. I stopped in my tracks and said out loud... "This is stupid. Skyscrapers can't be made of cardboard boxes." No one else seemed to think the card board city was abnormal. As I stared at the absurd city, I finally realized I was dreaming.

I took off from my friends and I strolled through the dream inspecting everything. I noticed that the streets were free of garbage and no longer contained any pedestrians. Seemed I was alone. I couldn't help but occasionally snicker at the cardboard buildings. I thought about entering one but knew there was nothing inside of them.

I then ran, pumped my legs harder and faster to see how fast I could speed through the city. I ran up the side of one of the cardboard sky scrapers and as I did I remembered another lucid dream where I dashed up the sides of buildings and leapt from one to another. I did the same in this dream simply because it was a fun thing to do.

At some point I realized I was being persued by a trio of guys who looked like agents from the matrix. I knew that if they touched me I'd lose my lucidity so I spent a great deal of time simply outrunnign the guys. Ran to the top of a massive skyscraper and stood on the ledge. I looked over and didn't feel my usual fear of heights. The next building was too far away to possibly jump to and I knew the agents were closing in on me. I moved to the next building which was a very narrow cardboard building. I reached over, grabbed it and pulled it up. I dragged the building over and used it to bridge the gab between my building and the one I needed to jump to. I hopped on and ran across. Once I made it to the other building I kicked the bridge building away. I'd escaped the agents.

I turned to take off again but a huge black guy was standing in my way. He asked, "How'd you do that?"

"Easy. We aren't real. We're characters in a dream." I seriously informed him.

The guy burst out laughing and said, "Nah, come on now. How'd you do that? How do you run so damned fast?"

I told him again we were in a dream, my dream. I picked up a brick (i think it was a brick). I held it toward him in my hands. I made it morph into something that looked like a sewing machine petal. I told the guy that if he ran and pressed the pedal that he would be able to run as fast I could.

Again the man laughed. It was a good, hearty laugh that made me want to laugh too because it made me realize how crazy I sounded. I pestered him to try it. He gave in and jogged along the top of the building. As soon as he depressed the pedal he took off like a bullet and charged up and down buildings like I had been previously doing. As soon as I lost sight of him I realized the agents were closing in on me again.

I ran. And I don't remember how but I ended up inside of a hospital type building, jogging a long dark corridor. At the end of the corridor in front of a huge picture window stood a blond woman with her back facing me. As I neared the blond turned and asked, "Who are you running from?"

I told her I was being chased by agents that were trying to steal my lucidity. She didn't seem to understand what I meant but she informed me that there was no on chasing me. I turned and looked back and realized the agents had gone. They were no longer persuing me. I turned back to the blond lady and when I really looked at her I realized she looked exactly like me except she was pale and had blond hair. This startled me and I could do nothing but stare at her for a good couple of minutes.

She smiled at me. It was an entirely sweet smile but I suddenly was filled with a maniacal desire to kill her. I have no idea why. I simply wanted to mutilate and murder her. Can't remember ever feeling so enraged in dream or out. I dont remember anything after this. Cant recall if I attempted to attack her or not.
