Spoiler for Lucid:

Non-Lucid Lucid
I was waiting for a bus when it pulled up I and many others got on. The bus was strange with most of the seats facing the back, finally I came to a seat facing sideways and sat down. Some DC(s) walked past me and at the back sat in chairs that were set on three sides like a lounge section. Somehow as I sat here my attention drifted and the dream changed I was watching a movie among others in chairs, I realized it was like a movie at church. I saw the Sr Pastor. I also saw my brother, they seemed to be alternately holding out hands to shake but never at the same time. Someone got up from a recliner and several others left. I moved and sat in the recliner. I pulled the lever and it folded right up over me so I was sandwiched inside. It was comfortable so I watched the scene and the movie. Then I felt something crawling on me, it was like a spider but it was made of white gooey material like slime mold. I crushed it. Then I could see a much larger mass of white stuff, I tried to unfold the chair. The mass was breaking into many creatures and tentacles, I began crushing them into ever smaller pieces as my brother watched. Suddenly I must have false awakened, I began to reflect on the Dream I thought had ended. Then I think I once again started to false journal like the middle of previous lucid. I got up and the house was a wreck, I tried to go to the bathroom but it was a disaster too. Then a dead relative walked down the hall I knew it was a dream [+10 First DILD] I watched as the relative backed away and a tall strange looking version of my brother walked from the opposite end of the hall to come somewhat hostilely at my dead relative. I came into the hall and saw them go away from the door around the corner. I performed a jump test [+1 RC] and then began to fly [+5 Fly] I flew out the front door. I think back on the other lucid and remember I need to do the real the third task (Mass Telekenesis) I begin to walk on the dark road, but it isn't laid out right and around the corner I see a compact car I attempt to wave my hands forcefully and toss it with my mind, but it doesn't move [+0 FAIL]. I try again then swear a bit, the driver hears me and complains. I decide I should try for super speed so I try to run fast, but I'm not going very fast. So I begin to make rapid short steps imagining that my legs are fully extending but still I'm not moving fast [+0 FAIL]. I think back to a lucid trick, and my last lucid where I wanted to get tall, so I set one of my feet sideways on the ground and then walk sideways away from it stretching it out several feet (maybe 5 extra feet or so) [+5 Partial Transformation]. I step up onto my one long leg and begin to swing my other leg back and forth towards the ground. The long leg begins to shorten a bit, but the short one lengthens until it touches the ground. I now come around another corner. My legs are quite long so I attempt to run but still I wouldn't call it super speed, my legs were working like pendulums and I was more or less stilt walking. I could see a group of 4 steel poles I walked up to them and thought I'll use super-strength, I try to tear one of the middle poles off, but its seems a bit rusted thru and tears off easily, even so It would have been super heavy as it was nearly as tall as a flag pole [+5 Super Strength]. Next I toss it aside and decide that I should try to fully phase again. I see a corner of solid walls but look away hoping for a giant glass window instead, I destabilize. I wake.

Estimated Total Lucid Time 2 - 3 min

Night Total 2 + 2 + 26 = 30 points
Competition Total 104 points (Tripple digit Territory)

Best Dream Effect: the super High Wind picked me up and slammed me into a wooden wall, it was pretty cool being dragged and tossed across the dreamscape.
Scariest Moment: there were rampaging monster like people who seemed like half giants, with distorted features. They were armed with all sorts of stuff, I wasn't really scared but I was zigging a path and keeping my distance
Best Moment: That chick was super-hot, and many around her were singing a song about her immoral nature, she looked young and innocent, they were signing some sort of lyric about how she was just a week outta school, but...
Best Dream Food: I suppose it has to be the powdered cheese bread, it was a cheddar flavor

In the Hypnogram I clearly miss the first good REM and wake from the lamer second one at just before 1 AM, The S+ seems to miss the next Rem just around 2 AM, and then I don't think I really went back to sleep till the end of what shows as a seperate (red) disruption. The final Lucid containing REM looks nice a wide from just before 3:30 onwards

I suppose I still have time for a nap, but I'll wait until just before 8:00 and then head to sleep
I have posted off next week on Tue and Thurs, so that means I still have Sat Sun Tue Thurs Sat Sun as good days ahead. Hopefully I can pull off some unlikely normal weekday lucids like this last one

My next Lucid will be my official 200th (including 5 ones I count from when I was young) then I'll set my count back after the next one to 196th Intentional Lucid, and then If I break 200 again I'll further set it back to 196th Since Join (Dream Views) and try for the Bicentenial a third time (not that I have any real chance of doing that during the competiton! I like to use this +5 +10 differential to encourage myself to break thru some nice benchmark sized numbers
