21.30 – 00.56

I was at work, I‘ve just made the mistake of nearly cutting out my anchor point (I've nearly done this before in WL and nearly killed myself!). G. tells me to do another tree and do it in a different way.

Later we were at the site we were clearing in WL today. There was a fenced off area in the middle of it that was not there in WL.

I was in a taxi with some other people. There was another taxi following us with other people we knew in it. I don’t remember who any of these people were. The street system had roundabouts at every junction, and the streets were really wide. We got out and paid the taxis.

00.56 – 06.30

I was at S. and G.’s (some relatives) but the house layout was different. I had gone there to do some gardening for them. I asked “Shall I do some gardening for you tomorrow then S.?”
She said: “Its completely up to you, you can do it if you feel like it.”
I never did the gardening in the end.

Later I was sitting on the ground in the garden with Mum and S. Mum lay down and the bottom half of her body went under the soil and uprooted some rhubarb plants. I said “Mum watch out for the Rhubarb! Those are rhubarb plants aren’t they S?” They were in a row and looked different to normal Rhubarb.

S. and I were sitting in a room raised above the rest of the house, but open plan, so you could look out on the lower rooms, like a balcony. We were watching a video on their computer. It was an old video of us all going horse riding down a steep, winding woodland path. I thought I saw Grandad Peach horse riding but it turned out to be S.’s mother. I was the one selecting what to watch on the computer. I felt like I was being nosy by watching their family videos.
In the same room was a rectangular dining table. S and I were sitting at this table with two salesmen in suits. They were trying to sell us some snuff-like powders. There were four small bowls containing the powders on the table in front of us. S went first and smelled each bowl in a special sequence. Then I did the same. My heart started beating fast and I felt a bit buzzing. I said “I expected it to be relaxing but its not at all.”
One salesman said “Its good to do when you’re coming up on MDMA. Do you take MDMA?”
I quickly said “No” in a defensive way as S was there. Then the salesman said “I think you do really. I used to do it when I was younger.”
There was a girl sitting on the same side of the table as the salesmen (Sally and I were on the opposite side). She said that she’d tried MDMA once but she didn’t like it.
I started cleaning out a sort of device like a hoover for S. It was clogged up with black hairs. The salesman took over and finished cleaning it. I think he was trying to sell S the device.

I was in a park near where I live. It was night time. I saw my sister J and her partner P. I was eating two hot dogs from a paper plate (I'm vegetarian in WL but I sometimes eat meat in dreams). I thought J and P. would be wondering why I was eating meat.

We went to a nearby pub. There was a row of picninc benches on the street outside, we sat down. On the way there we bumped into two girls I knew, they were Norweigian or something, they came with us. Some other friends were there too. I bought a round.

I went to the bar with P. I ordered four drinks. At first I said I wanted a shandy because P. had just been talking to me about shandy. Then I corrected this to a guiness. The bloke behind the bar took my £20 put it in the till, then came back and said "That'll be £5.75 please."
"But I just gave you £20!" I said.
"Oh sorry my mistake, I forgot its so easy to do"
"Thats ok, I used to work on the till at Superdrug, I know what its like. You just go into a daydream when you're working" I said
I had to wait for the change. So I took the drinks out to the others. I went back in to get the change. Now it was a girl who was serving me, I had to wait around to get the change. She didn't want her boss to find out about the mistake.

There was no more cash in the till. She offered me £45 WHsmith vouchers instead, which I didn't really want. Then she offered me some records from someone's collection that was behind the bar. They were good records and I wanted them, but I said "I can't take these they belong to someone else" After some further complications I eventually took the vouchers.

I went back outside. J and P were leaving. C. had arrived. She gave me a hug. She was really upset because last time I had seen her at Fabric (a club) I had left without saying goodbye to her. There was a sort of dream flashback of being in Fabric (but layout was different).

She was still hugging me quite tightly and I needed to cough. I said "hang on a sec I need to cough". And I woke up coughing!

02.30 - about 04.00: Awake

04.00 - 06.00

I was having a big argument with J. (an old friend who I haven't seen for years). We had been sharing a flat together. I was moving out. We were outside in the back garden. I was sitting on the doorstep. I got some kind of big children's toy out of the shed. J. said he was going to get a job working for the council.

Later I was in a record shop, buying some dubstep records with M. They didn't have a turntable so I couldn't listen to them first. But I bought some anyway.

Then I was in a school, taking a class. We started off in a classroom but then went outside into a field. We were working in threes, I was working with C. (who I know from college) and someone else. The ground was really muddy. We had to dig in it for some reason, but I only had a rake. The teacher told me "You'd do better if you got down on your knees"
I said " I'm not getting on my knees in this mud!"
I gave up, I was waiting for the teacher to come round and tell me off again but he never did.

Then we were back in the classroom talking about an exam. He didn't seem to be a very good teacher, he didn't really care.

Dreamsigns:
Context - Character place - appearance of J. who I haven't seen for years in WL
The argument with J. - I rarely argue with my friends in WL. But I do it quite a lot in dreams.
Context - Setting place/time - Being back at school. This happens quite a lot in my dreams.

14.6.09

21.30 - 23.30

I was cutting down some shrubs in a junkyard. (This is very strange as I ended up doing something very similar in WL today. I'm not sure if I believe in prophetic dreams, it was probably a coincidence but who knows?) While I'm working I put a knee down on the ground and a smouldering cigarette burns me.

23.30 - 05.16

I was cutting down shrubs again. No one else is helping (again prophetic as I was working alone today which is very unusual). At one point I think I'm going to kill myself (I don't remember this but its there in my journal, so it must have happened, I wrote it down in a bleary state early this morning).
Later I'm clearing up. Someone gives me a banana.

I'm with my Aunt J. and Uncle S. We are walking down very crowded streets, people are all thronging in one direction. J. collapses, S. goes to get a doctor. I think I should put J. in the recovery position but I can't remember how you do it. The doctor comes and starts asking J. loads of questions about her diet, he says she has a really bad diet. Jane seems to be ok, the doctor doesn't do much. We continue on through the packed streets, we go up an escalator. At one point we were getting some food out of fridges by the side of the road.

Later I'm with S. (ex who I don't see any more). We were in an unfamiliar front garden. I have just bought a lucid dream inducing bike! The idea is that you get on it and start riding, after a while you will go into a lucid dream. It looks like a normal bike except its got some supports on the handlebars which are supposed to stop you falling off when you fall asleep. I don't think they would really work though!

S. disappears with both the LD inducing bike and her (normal) bike. I think the bikes have been stolen and shes gone. I'm upset because the LD inducing bike was expensive. Eventually she turns up on a double decker bus with the bikes. I'm so relieved to see her.

Dreamsigns:
Context - Character place - seeing S.
The LD inducing bike!!

waahahahhaa lucid inducing bike! i wonder if i gave you that idea - maybe you should start riding more bikes in dreams.

and precognitive dreams are pretty cool, too.

Yeah, Bikes were one of my main dreamsigns before, but even more so now!

21.38 - 04.04

I arrived at the eco village . Long story but basically (in WL) some people have squatted this piece of derelict land near where I live, they're turning it into an "eco village", permaculture and sustainable living place. Check: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=88020757939

Anyway I arrive at this field, it was sort of like the real place but without the boarding all round it. There was no one else there yet. I was driving my mums car with my tent etc in it. I was putting on a pair of trousers when everyone arrived. Some people came to say hello. I had the trousers still half on and was hopping around whilst talking. One girl said
"You can stay with the car for a month, but after then there are no vehicles allowed on site"
I said " I have to take the car back to my mum anyway"

Later it was Christmas and I was with my mum and sister. We were watching tv, a woman was making stuff from bananas and banana skins. She got angry when she realized no one was actually watching her.

04.04 - 05.30

I was at a house I grew up in. I was getting ready to go to work. My sister was in the house too. She had taken some of my plants, cut the tops off and put them in buckets of water. I told her that they would probably die as they need their roots.
I was having breakfast listening to some music from my PC. The I was reading a newspaper (The Sun, which I never read in WL!). I thought I was running late for work so I looked at the time on the computer. It said 10am, (way late for work). Then I looked back and it said 6am (on time for work). The time kept changing. How the hell did I not become lucid?

Dreamsigns:
Context place - being back at my childhood house
Plants - personal dreamsign
Changing time - Classic!

21.41 - 05.24

Riding a bike G. (my manager at work) had lent me, it belonged to a friend of his. It had small wheels with wide tyres and it was small like a collapsible bike. It was very fast though. I'm riding through city streets.

Then I'm sitting with some friends in a bar. Someone says that tomorrow is a public holiday, but I think they're wrong. My friend X says "I love you" to me. This makes me feel awkward but I say "I love you too".

I cycle back to my aunt's flat where I'm living. I do some gardening for her.

I'm with G. standing by the side of a street. His friend is waiting in the car. We're about to go somewhere together. There is a little stall by the side of the road. G buys some beer called Stollenbrausch and some snack foods. Someone says "Look at all the fat in those foods." G phones his friend in the car to ask him what he wants.

Later I'm walking down some long wide marble steps. People are walking up and down the stairs all around me. Then I lie down on the steps. A hot Japanese looking girl passes and I look at her. I thought she was alone but some of her friends were following her. They obviously didn't like the way I was looking at her, they started walking over me and kicking my head. I didn't feel any pain though. I woke up.

I kept still lying in bed. I imagined the white marble steps of the dream I had just woken up from. I was so tired I fell asleep again almost straight away.

I'm back in the dream with the steps except this time there's no one else there. I know its a dream. I start to float upwards I look down at my feet and legs, they look a bit strange and I'm not wearing my normal shoes. Then I remember to try to stabilize the dream first. I lift my hands to look at them I'm aware of the feeling of my hands moving against the duvet in my bed. This wakes me up.

21.39 - 05.30

I was walking along a street with loads of music shops like Tottenham Court Road in London. I went into a shop with a guitar amp, which I was trying to get fixed. But it was strange because I knew there wasn't really anything wrong with it. I talked to a shop assistant about it.

I left the shop and walked past a bus terminal with buses going to many different places. Each bus stop had a digital sign above it, all the names of the passengers on each bus scrolled across the sign. I saw my name on one sign, but my name was repeated twice.

I was now aware that I was travelling in a foreign country. I got onto the bus. Later I got off and picked up a bike. I rode it up to the start of a long woodland trail which was supposed to lead over the border into another country. There were loads of soldiers around. They had formed a barricaded the top of the path. I asked one of them if I could cycle down the path. They didn't speak English, they responded in an Eastern European language. I gathered from their gestures that if I went down the path I would be shot.

I went to a car park nearby. I saw a girl, I knew she was my sister, but she was not my sister in WL, she was older than my real sister. She started talking to another girl about an exam they had just taken. The other girl said she thought she had failed. The exam was in something like pharmacology, the girl explained how if she failed she would start making drugs illegally at home.

Then J. (my real sister) appears coming up the path. She looks in a bad way. She collapses onto the ground. The older sister kneels down next to her and looks at her. J's face is red and swollen. She can't talk properly, she keeps groaning and letting out hysterical outbursts as if shes "speaking in tongues". I'm worried shes going to die. But the older sister says "I'm not going to let her die"

Malfunctioning guitar amp
Bus sign reading out my name twice

Some patchy recall last night.

21.27 - 12.10 No recall

12.10 - 04.55

I was in a car park that I was at today in WL.
I was a holiday guide.
I was carrying a big bag.

I wrote the above down in my notebook DJ last night, but I can't make much sense of it now. I don't remember any of the dreams any more. I was so tired when I woke up I couldn't write down the dreams in full.

04.55 - 05.30

I kept eating sweets until I felt sick.
A police car pulled me over. They asked me to drive around a corner and stop there. I couldn't find the place they were talking about, so I just kept driving.
I was on a bus.
I was in a room with three female doctors. They are about to treat me for something.

I've not had any recall for a while. I think this is due to lack of sleep. But then I had this disturbing series of dreams the other night.

21.06 - 22.54

I'm in a campsite with loads of tents pitched close together (like at Glastonbury). I'm throwing things at my friend J.T. I throw a glass jar full of £1 coins and some other objects, there are other people all around and they could get hit but they never do.

Earlier in the dream I was throwing things at my sister.

I'm aware that my actions have no consequences and no one will really get hurt if I hit them.

I hit J.T's tent with something and the door pops open. Inside I can see the double inflatable mattress that he had in WL.

At some point I was fighting with J.T (or was it my sister). We're rolling on the floor arms locked together, gripping each other. Glaring into each other's faces.

22.54 - 02.23

I had killed someone, or tried to kill someone. We were in a castle, I had some kind of helpers with me. There was a knife floating high in the air near the rafters of this huge hall. The knife had a handle shaped like a bat. I flew up to get the knife, then I threw it back down. One of the helpers said "You're not going to use that knife are you?"

02.23 - 05.00

I was on the run with my sister. I had killed someone and we had the body in the boot of the car. This was quite a long, confused dream which I don't recall well. At one point I had to swap places with the body and hide in the boot of the car while my sister did something with the body.

Dreamsigns:
Inner Awareness - guilt at having killed someone or hurt someone
Action - being able to fly up and get the knife

20.45 - 03.39

I was in a hotel with my Grandad L. and some other people including a random Chinese guy. I go to my room. Its bare apart from two single beds and a bedside table all in cheesy 70's decor.

Someone tells me this is a meditation retreat place. I'm wearing my old school uniform. I arrange to meet the others in five minutes then I go to a library room to get some books. On the way I go through a security scanner and I set the alarm off. A security guard searches me, something on my belt had set the alarm off.

I get to the library, there's a lesson going on in there but the teaches says I can still get some books. The books are mostly boring text books, with loads of copies of each one like at a university library. There are some Forestry Commission books on trees. I leave the library and go to meet my grandad. I set off another alarm and get searches by another security guy. He says my clothes are ok, but I cannot change into more relaxed clothes as this place has a strict dress code, you can't wear trainers or caps.

03.38 - 05.30

I was in a club with A. and some other friends. We were dancing and drinking. We were having a good time, talking with some nice girls. A. racks up lines of coke for everyone. I have the last one, as soon as I take it the music stops, loads of policemen come in and start firing shots. The club is being raided. They're not normal policemen, more like military police, they start shouting at people and being aggressive.

They herd us all into a dark room downstairs. A. stashes his coke in a plant pot on the stairs. Once we downstairs the policemen get all the men to line up, they start searching us then they tell us to take of our trousers. A man comes up behind me and roughly grabs at my crotch, he says "Are you a man? Where is your manhood?" He and all the other policemen start laughing at me. I start crying.

Dreamsigns:
Context - wearing my old school uniform and being in a school-like environment.
Inner awareness - In both dreams there was the feeling of having something to hide, first from the security guards then form the military police. This escalated to a feeling of intense shame when I was naked. This was similar to the feeling of being on the run in my last dreams on 30.6.09.

I know some people don't like other people posting on their DJs, but I don't mind. Feel free to comment

the next time a cop makes you take off your trousers and looks for your manhood, tazer him in the face.

Lol Yeah I'll have to remember that if it ever happens again. I hope it doesn't though!

22.30 - 06.52

I was in Germany, I was with a family but it was not my own. My mum had been killed and I was curled up on the floor in tears. The other members of my "family" were not upset because it was not their real mum, it was mine.

Later I was cooking a meal. I was hunting through a fridge for ingredients. Most of the food was decaying. There were lots of pieces of Camembert cheese wrapped up in paper.

I was on a train journey through Germany, with some other backpackers. We were travelling along the border between East and West Germany. There were some things like electricity pylons running alongside the track. A German girl I was with told me that these pylons could drop bombs on any place in Germany. Apparently the location of these pylons was top-secret.

Later on the train, I think I must have been in the body of a girl. A. from college was there, he had a sunburned face. He was supposed to be my boyfriend. I couldn't work out why I didn't fancy him at all. Very confusing!

I was staying in the "Metent Gardens" (still in Germany). It was a huge botanical garden the size of a small country. I saw some amazing other-worldly landscapes and strange moss-draped trees. At one point I was running down hills really fast with someone else by my side. It was more like we were floating on invisible skateboards than running. We were whizzing by other people walking along the track. Again I had that strange feeling of knowing that whatever happened I would come to know physical harm

Whoever I was with asked me a question about some trees. I didn't know but I felt like I should know, because I'm supposed to know about trees. I felt like a fraud.

The sun was going down and it was getting dark. It was ok because we knew we could get a minibus back to our hostel.

Last Day at Glastonbury (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

02.27 - 08.07

In the stone circle with J.T. and some others

10.45 - 12.23

Only one stage is still playing music, Bob Marley is performing. I was with some people and we were looking after baby bats. There was one young one who could fly around. I said "He looks like a squirrel with wings, and longer legs. There was also a bucket with loads of tiny newborn bats in water, they were about two cms long, and red. I thought they were cute.

A girl asked me "Can you look after them tonight. You would have to wake up at 3am and 5am to change their water."
I said "Thats ok, I'm used to waking up in the night because of LDing"

I went to the portaloos with a dreadlocked guy. Afterwards I was waiting outside for him for a while. J came and told me that the guy had already gone.

Walking around Glasto I saw a seedling oak by the side of the path, I touched it, it was amazing. The there was an unusual tree which had a trunk growing horizontally, low over the path. You had to duck to walk underneath it.

Later I was standing by a really muddy area. People were sloshing by in their wellies. The mud was really liquid, a proper mud bath. I saw Michael Eavis walk past.

I got a video message sent to my phone. some people were talking about climate change. They were building a dome shaped structure out of recycled wooden beams.

A couple of times while I was walking around I came upon this hill leading down to a building with open double doors. Inside was a long table at which about 20 asian people were sharing a meal. Somehow we knew we weren't allowed in there.

At some point I got a text saying I had a new private message at DV. I couldn't read it though.

Allotments (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

21.30 - 05.30

I go into the IBM building in Greenford. In the foyer there are loads of old IBM computers. I put a floppy disk into one of them.

The whole of West Ealing Park was allotments. I arrived there in a minibus with two women. They were teaching us something, it was like a college lesson. We went to a plot belonging to one of the women's grandfather. We started pulling out some plants which looked like apple tree seedlings.

We passed what I knew was my own plot. Even though my plot in WL is somewhere different. My asparagus had grown some large leaves. I was concerned because the front row was right next to the path and was getting trampled, and weeds were growing in amongst them.

We moved over to the fence near Uxbridge Road. We were waiting for something. P arrived on a bike and says something to the group.

Fear of Insanity (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

21.30 - 22.51

I was staying in a kind of camp place. It was on a hill, everyone had their own little sections of the place. There were no roofs and no tents or anything, everyone had their own little area, with a mattress or small sofa in it. S and his girlfriend were there, so were some other friends.

There was this strange device which had cameras and monitors displaying what those cameras were recording. One of the monitors was showing a first person view of what S. was seeing. The other monitor was showing something else but I can't remember what. The combination of these two images was deeply terrifying. It was as though the images were completely obliterating my sense of self and my preconceptions of reality. Its very hard for me to describe now.

The first night I stayed at this place I got drunk. That numbed me to the effects of this maddening device and allowed me to cope with it. The second night I didn't drink (or couldn't for some reason) and I basically ended up going insane. For some reason I had to watch the screens.

At one point S phoned me, he asked me if he was going mad. I was trying to reassure him, even though I felt like I was loosing my mind myself.

The dream ended when I finally saw S in the flesh. He was dressed in a strange plastic suit with blue patches, like a motorbiker's protection suit. I was pointing at him and mumbling nonsense. I could not make sense of anything and felt as though I had finally gone completely insane. Shaun just looked at me and chuckled, as if saying "Welcome to my world". I woke up terrified.

My friend S. in WL suffers from quite severe mental illness.

There was a definite influence of the book "A Scanner Darkly" by Philip K. Dick in this dream. I read it about a year ago, the day after I finished it I was contemplating the book and worked myself into a state of deep anxiety, something akin to a panic attack. I think this dream was closely linked to that. Also I generally have a fear of going insane and ending up in a nut house.

After I woke up I had that sense of there being a presence in the room with me. I did and RC and the sight of my own hands was strangely disturbing they looked like someone else's hands, but there was nothing visibly different about them. I went to the bathroom, when I looked in the mirror I was frightened by my own reflection. It took me a while to get back to sleep. This was very similar to the feeling I had after the scary SP experience on 18.5.09

Garden (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

21.30 - 03.00 (woke to my alarm)

no recall

03.00 had planned to try DEILD but needed to go to toilet, so tried
WILD after returning to bed. Unsuccessful. Woke up 05.30.

I was living in a flat with my Mum. It was a big house converted into flats. We had the ground floor flat. I had a veggie garden in front of the house.

I came back to the house one day. The people in the basement flat had ripped out all my plants and turned the whole area to just plain soil. But I had some strawberry plants in pots and these had just been moved and put under a net. These plants now had loads of ripe strawberries on them, before they didn't.

Car Park (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

23.49 - 05.50

I was with S.P and another bloke (her bf), in a strange place like a car park.

S. P was leaving this bloke and wanted to go off somewhere with me. The bloke was really upset. He started fighting with me, I tried to stop him. S.P said she like both of us. I said she should go with the other bloke, which I thought was very nice of me!

08.54 - 09.30 No recall

Something about a bottle of spirits.I was pouring it into shot glasses and drinking it.

Horse Chestnuts (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

04.00 - 10.00 No recall

12.00 - 14.00

I looked out of the kitchen window and there were two new trees where the old horse chestnuts had been (they had to be felled recently). They were in slightly different positions than before. They also had massive trunks. There was a path leading to a little woodland area (which is not there in WL).

I thought it was strange how the trees had appeared so quickly. I asked my Mum about it. She said they had planted some new trees and accelerated their growth using some machine or by magic.

This seemed strange, I suspected I was dreaming. I RC'd by trying to push a finger through the palm of the other hand. It didn't go through and I didn't become lucid.

This was frustrating as I normally do at least 3 different types of RC. I don't know why I didn't on this occasion. However I'm pleased, this is the second time I've RC'd in a dream.

Tree Climbing (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

21.37 - 03.15

I was at work, climbing a big oak. At first I thought I just needed to remove the lower limbs, but G. (my manager) said it needed a crown reduction.

Later I was working on my own. I was climbing around the top of the crown, bringing the height down. At one point I noticed that I was anchored into a tiny dead twig that would not have held my weight in WL. I panicked and quickly changed to a suitable anchor point. I went back to work, but five minutes later it happened again, I had a dodgy anchor point. This kept happening again and again.

Later I think F. was there. I didn't manage to finish the tree before the end of the day. We went back to the yard in the truck. It was not like the normal yard.

I told G. and S. J. that I had only done the top of the tree. I said I could finish it quickly next time.

03.15 - 05.36

I was looking after T. (my four year old niece), but she was a lot younger about a year old. I was at college, pushing her round in a pram. Some one had left a roll up cigarette in her lap, she had picked it apart and started eating the tobacco. I realized what she had done and panicked, I thought she might be poisoned by the nicotine. I tried to get it all out of her mouth with my fingers and then got her to drink some water.

E. B. was there. He told me she would not be affected by eating the tobacco. I didn't believe him, and I thought he might have been responsible for this as he's a smoker.

I saw M. (my old college tutor) as I was walking and I said "Good Morning".

Dreamsigns:
- Repeatedly seeing that I had a dodgy anchor point.
- Seeing E.B, as I haven't seen him in years.

I was at a party at O's place, but it was more like the dining room at Grove Avenue. The police are at the front door. Everyone stashes their weed. I forget I've got a little bit in my pocket until its too late to hide it.

A policeman and his wife come in. They are in plain clothes. The policeman starts taking the piss out of us. I say "If you're going to search us why don't you just do it?"

He comes up to me puts some tin foil down on the table in front of me, the he pours some liquid onto it. He makes me rub my hands in it. The liquid turns green. He says that this means I haven't been taking heroin or opium. The policeman's wife starts flirting with me.

Later I'm in a house by myself. I think I may have been smoking weed. I get paranoid that there's someone else in the house. I get really scared.

Then P and someone else come in. I'm flicking through this other guy's records. There's one record which has a little booklet attached to its cover. The booklet contains some cool art. I show it to Paul. I tell them about how I was scared earlier when I thought there was someone else in the house.

Another Party (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

20.49 - 05.30

There was a house party at Grove Avenue (my childhood house). We were watching some lame hip hop music video. I was with P and J.L. In the video there is a house party and the MC is chasing some dwarves out of the party.

J. L. says the tune is good and starts raving about it in his own energizer bunny way. I say its shit.

We're sitting at that old round wooden dinner table, but now its in the hallway at the bottom of the stairs. P and I start having a massive argument. He says some things that I've done to upset him. I start saying how he always uses me.

I start throwing things at him. He is on the bottom step. I'm standing up behind the table. One of the things hits his head. I say "Oh shit I didn't mean to hit you."

P and J leave, I'm left on my own. The house is trashed. I have to tidy up before mum gets back tomorrow. But I want a spliff. I've got one but no lighter. I go to the shop to get one, the front door won't close properly. The sun has come up now. I get halfway top the shop and think that I shouldn't really smoke until I've got the house clean otherwize I'd never get it done. I head back. Then I think someone probably left a lighter in the house during the party anyway.

When I get back the front door is wide open. I start cleaning the house. I'm feeling depressed about the argument with Paul.

Park flying (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

21.15 - 00.14

At work, using strange tools

00.14 - 05.00

I'm in a park. I realize I'm dreaming, I don't remember what triggered this. I do an RC, my hands look normal and my finger won't go through my palm. I try to stabilize by rubbing my hands together and concentrating on the feeling. It seemed to work. I couldn't believe how normal and real everything looked. I started floating upwards. I don't think I actually intended or tried to fly, it just happened.

I don't recall what happened after that.

Later I was at O's place, there was a gathering of people having a smoke. P, M, G and J. L. were there. I'm mixing on my decks and mixer. I turn around, when I go back to the decks they are higher, they've been raised up on something. I think O's girlfriend (but not M?) had done it while I wasn't looking.

G makes some toasted sandwiches with fish in for everybody.
