Wow that is so cool! I love the rainbow effect. And we can almost see now that your left eye is not really hideously freakish and deformed, as I always suspected!

Yay!!



Time for another lucid party.

Has another year gone by, so soon? It seems like I was just wishing you happy anniversary!

Yup...Moonbeam's is five days before mine, same year....

So we'll have to make sure that you, me and MB are at my lucid party.

Yea, I know mine was April 16, cuz that's my Dad's bday, so I remember.

Yay! Lucid anniversary party! I'm there!

Hey, at least you have stars - and overall your DJ shows 5 stars! I haven't got a one.

Have you actually ever met someone that you met on WoW? I went to a friend's birthday party. There were several people there that I did not know. When I asked my friend about them, he said they were all people on WoW that he had invited to his party and it was the first time he had met them as well. That was kind of cool.

That is really cool!

Hey, thanks, Hiros. It ended up to be an okay trip...not just "business".

I know...didn't that seem so very fast....?? (of course to all the teenagers here, it was probably reeeealy long.)

That's cool.

Now you've got a lot.

Have you actually ever met someone that you met on WoW? I went to a friend's birthday party. There were several people there that I did not know. When I asked my friend about them, he said they were all people on WoW that he had invited to his party and it was the first time he had met them as well. That was kind of cool.

I actually know a lot of them locally. Most are friends, or friends of friends, or relatives of friends.

And yeah, it is weird to meet someone from a the internet. I've done that twice now and maybe a third this summer. One was from a rock climbing message board who ended up living only about 15 miles away. So we met and I went rock climbing with him and his kids.

Another I met was from a bigfoot message board I was on. I met him and is wife and daughter when I was in CA one time.

And I have now been invited to the wedding of another internet friend. This one was the one who taught me how to wood carve.

So far I have not been disappointed. Each time it felt like I had known them forever.

TS

Welcome back, TS!

Dreams:


Dream 1:

Funny that we weer just talking about this...


I was travelling. I realized that I was right where raklet lived, so I decided that I would go meet him. Right as I got to the door. Two or three other ladies walked in fron to me and knocked on teh door.

Raklet opened the door and let them in. I wasn't sure what to do since he hadn't seemed to notice me yet. So I walked on in too. He started talking to the other ladies and then a little to me.

I wasn't sure he even knew who I was. So I finally asked something like, "Do you know who I am?" He knodded, but never actually acknowedged who I was, so I still wasn't certain.

Raklet took me on a tour though his house. One of the rooms was this huge (and I'm talking huge , as in the size of a large city block) room. I coudl see some rows of trees planted liek this was a type of green house. But I also saw a very large carpeted area that he had made for his kids to play. I immediately felt envious, and said, "Wow...I want one of these...."

Then I think I met his wife. And after that raklet disappeared, and I spent the rest of the time talking with his wife. I think I helped her make dinner. I can't remember all that we talked about but we had hit it off really well, and she was one of those people that are an instant best friend.

When dinner was ready she called for the kids. I could see them coming in from outside. They were all holding hands and smiling and perfectly obedient. I remember telling raklet and his wife..."You guys are definitly doing something right."

I then noticed that they had about 8 kids. At least three of them were older and were of mixed race. I asked them about that, and they told me that they had adopted the older children.



Dream 2:

Flying dream. I should have become lucid. Yet the whole thing is a bit fuzzy.

In this world, flying was possible, but not common (kind of like lucid dreaming...or flying in lucid dreaming).

I was practicing my flying. There were weekly tasks set for different ways of flying. These tasks were set to help people develop the styles that worked best form them.

The task this week had to do with wearing a red tank top that would act like a kite and help the wind carry you upward. I tried that and found that it seemed to help me get higher. At one point I went up between these clouds. The sun was shining through them in a way that made a whole rainbow effect all aroudnme. it was gorgeous. I had to fly down to get my camera.

I found my camera and saw that the memory card was full. I stared to delete pictures that included Tanya's graduation which was an event that I had supposedly just attended.

I then met up with my older sister--the one with cancer. She had been wanting to lear to fly to help her deal with all the other negative things that have come as a result of her cancer, like not walking well.

We then started to fly together.

I'm sorry. How rude of me!

I wish. We're cramped in our tiny little house - but I am going to put on an addition this year.

That sounds just like her. She'll talk to anybody.

Well I don't have any adopted children, but if you take off the three mixed race kids, then you have it exactly right how many kids I have.

And is it a super huge, greenhouse playroom?

That sounds just like her. She'll talk to anybody.

Yeah, even really strange people off lucid dreaming message boards....

I wish!

Haha...sorry to hear...but it's actually nice to know.....

BTW....how is she doing?

Actually quite well. She was scheduled to start another round of chemo. But recently found out that the tumor markers in her blood were low enough she didn't have to at this time. So she's very happy about being able to grow her hair back and have a normal summer.

I'm going to see her next weekend....And I'm really happy about that!

Oh good...I've been wondering how she was, but not wanting to ask. I'm glad to hear it.

What kind of native american dwelling is that in that rock? That's a cool pic. Can you go up there? The scale is hard for me to imagine.

Again, I wish. That sounds like a really cool idea. Its just a boring addition, though. Mainly more bedrooms.

Thanks, MB.

The scale was hard to tell even standing below it (no, you couldn't go up there). But they say it is a 20 room five story structure that is 70 feet above the ground. It was built by the Sinagua Indians during the 12th -14thh century.

Only in dreams and movies, I think ....

Dreams from notes:

All of my dreams were basically remembered as fragments, so I'm not going to spend much time trying to squeeze out the details that I mostly don't remember.


Dream 1:

I was running and hiding from someone. I found a crack in the bathroom wall above the shower and squeezed inside it.


Dream 2:

I was talking to Kim about haircuts. I knew she had recetnly learned how to do it and had a shop. She told me she would cut my hair. I wasn't ready for a haircut, but I said yes anyway.


Dream 3:

I saw my old friend Cherie from High school. I was so glad to see her since I have't seen her since then. She looked as young and beautiful as ever.


Dream 4:

I was shopping for clothes.


Dream 5:

There was a school sleep over at the school.


Dream 6:

I was sunbathing in my backyard. There were others there too. My freind B made a comment about someone else sunbathing topless, and how tacky that was to do in front of everyone. I then looked down and noticed that I was topless too. I slowly pulled a pillow over me until I was covered up, hoping she hadn't noticed.

Dream 7:

I was inside this place that was supposed to be a house, but it was really big. I was with an orchestra group. We were supposed to be playing the Nutcracker. But for some reason the music we were using had pictures of lemons on it and not notes. It was really confusing. David S was there and I was talking to him trying to figure out what was going on.

Oh I was way off on that rock house, it looked much smaller than that. Cool. I went to Mesa Verde once, that was neat.

Going topless is one of your dreamsigns, in case you hadn't noticed.

Dang! You can remember 7 dreams in one night? That is amaz-a-zing.

Haha...do ya think? I don't know why I'm like that in dreams. I'm not like that in real life. And I never seem to find it strange....

Originally Posted by kingofclutch

Thanks. I just wish I had remembered more on those dreams. I have had better nights. But lately, not so much.




Dream 1:

Fragment. I was insomeones house talking them them. One of them was an older lady. i was holding her poodle and talking about how poodles had a distinct smell. And tha I recognized it because my best friend growing up had a poodle too.

[This smell seemed so real and so familiar. I wonder if there really is something to it, and that my miind is actually remembering the way my friends dog used to smell.]


Dream 2:

I was part of this group (school group?) that had to do this activity/performance. We were supposed to do a choreographed fight while making up a story to tell why doinging it. And it coldn't be similar to any movie or book. We had to totally make it up on the spot.

I was nervous because I am no tthat good at making things up on the spot. I did find a long stalk of old amaranth from my garden. It was about 7 feet long and I was going to use it in my fight/dance.


But instead of fighting I came inside (we had been outside). I was in a large room with people that had gathered. I still had my amaranth stalk with me and I started to jump and spin. I realized that I had this talent for being able to stay in the air. So I jumped and floated and spun, and made up this really cool choreographed dance using all my special skills. I also was able to do flips. If I concentrated really hard I could do about three front flips while up in the air. Doing these seemed familiar. I knew that I had done this before. I was surprised that I would have forgotten something as important as having magical abilities.

I stopped for a moment and talked to one of the guys there. He was eating blue jelllo. I mentioned that eating blue food helped increase a person's magical ability. He happily continued to eat it.

I then continued my dance. I saw a mirror and watched myself. I remember thinking that I didn't look the way I thought I should. I jumped and spun with my legs bent in what I thought looked like a beautiful ballet move. But my legs in the mirror didn't look as gracefully placed as I wanted. So I spent the next few minutes perfecting my moves so that my reflection looked like what I felt the movements should look like. At this time I was wearing what looked like a ballet dress and tights.



Dream 3:

I feel like my memoriy picks up in the middle of this one. I was walking to my classroom. I was angry and needed to confront my teacher. She looked my my real life Spanish 3 teacher from high school, who was an older lady and very strict and kind of intinidating.

I went right up to her and told her that I was upset at her, and that she treated me unfairly. How she added up the scores from my test and found that I was under 50%. But that she had later found a few of my tests that were not in the origial stack. But that she didn't bother to add them into my grade. I was really angry and just wanted to to totally tell her off. I finally got her to admit that that's what she had done and that it hadn't been fair.

I felt a little better and we both walked into the classroom. I was surprised to see only about 7 students there. I guessed that the rest of them had dropped the class. I felt good to see two of the guys there that were my freinds.

I sat down at my desk. As soon as I did I felt the ground begin to shake. I started getting stronger and stronger. I fianlly realized tath it was an earth quake. I braced myself and waited for it to end.

But then suddenly I was the far end of the classroom dip down. I had this quick glimpse out of the window of the skyline and ocean. In that moment I realized that this was not an earthquake, but that the classroom that we were in which was a bungalo, had broken free of the foundation and had rolled down the hill to the cliff overlooking the ocean.

I braced myself again for the bungalo hit the waster after the 40 foot or so drop. I yelled to everyone to grab anything important and to get ready to swim.

The impact of the bungalo hitting the water was huge and woke me up.

Looks like your Arizona trip was pretty fun. I used to visit there a lot. I have a lot of family outside of Phoenix. That picture of the cliff dwelling just brought back a lot of memories.

It seems like lately you're having a lot of dreams where you take your abilities for granted. Floating, flying, teleporting. I wonder if you just get used to being able to do incredible things in your dreams. I feel like we've discussed this before.

I wonder if you had the task of the month on your mind. This sounds like a reverse tidal wave. It reminds me a lot of the dream I just had last night where the building I was in was hit with a huge tsunami. Whenever there's a new task I'm trying to do, I find it pops up in my non-lucid dreams at strange times. Even old tasks make appearances. Trying to remember to do a task in a dream must grind it pretty deep into our subconscious.

Yeah, I really like things like that. Arizona has some really pretty areas. I have kind of fallen in love with the desert--which seems funny for someone who loves trees so much...

That's neat that you are familiar with this area. It doesn't seem like many people on this board have been here much.

It seems like lately you're having a lot of dreams where you take your abilities for granted. Floating, flying, teleporting. I wonder if you just get used to being able to do incredible things in your dreams. I feel like we've discussed this before.

Yeah, I think we have talked about this. It's the one drawback of doing these kinds of things so often in dreams. It becomes so natural to do them, that there is no reason to question them. So they aren't a very useful dream sign. The good thing is that flying/teleporting/having special abilities in a non-luicd dream is as fun as in a lucid dream. Perhaps even better becasue I'm so sure that I can actually do it, and I think it is actually part of me, not just something I can do in dreams.

Sigh...it's times like this that I wish I actually did have these special abilities. But then I have to think: If I had them, then others could have them. Then the world seems a scarier and less predictable place....

I hadn't thought of that. Maybe my mind was trying to get me to the ocean. Hmm...I need to keep thinking about the ocean.

I find that quite amusing. Why are you so concerned about what your friend thinks?

Probably two reasons. First as she was talking about how tacky it was to sunbathe topless, I was agreeing with her, only to find myself guilty of the same thing. Second, I would never sunbath topless in front of anyone anyway. And third, I'm sure it's bad for your skin....

Funny how in dreams like this we think that others might not have noticed yet, so we try to descretely hide.

Not so different from real life. We always want to believe that others haven't noticed yet and we try and hide, when in fact they probably have but are just too polite to say anything!

Well, I've never accidentally found myself topless in public in real life.

But perhaps you are refering to things like finding your zipper down, or having a big piece of spinach on your front tooth? I've gotten better at casually mentioning things like that to people so they don't later have to find out and feel mortified that they spent all day like that and no one said anything.

Yeah, that kind of thing.

I'm going to be gone again. I'm going to visit my sister.

I'll be gone from Thursday afternoon until late Sunday.
