Thread: Task of the Month for March 2014

Last night I managed to complete Basic Task i.

I woke up naturally around 4:30 as planned and recalled the tiniest fragment, I entered it in my DJ on my phone. I got up and got a drink. I decided to stretch the wake time a bit so I read the task of the month for March. I am glad I did this. I spent about 10 minutes up, finishing my drink, checking email and contemplating lucidity. I went back to bed and practiced MILD while drifting off. the dream follows:

I am in a rush to take a shower so that I can leave my grandparent's home (now in Nepal) with my family. I enter the shower and turn on the water. When I turn around there is a blonde woman in the shower with me. I am taken back by this and wonder what I have gotten myself into. At this point I realize that i am dreaming. I remember my plan to verify the validity of RCs. I look at my hand and see that i have only 3 fingers and one thumb. I pinch my nose and find that I am still inhaling air. I am satisfied with these results and turn my attention to the woman. At this point I remember basic task one and say. "I am dreaming." she looks puzzled and rather alarmed by this statement. I then inquire "What is your middle name?" "Mickey" she replies. At this point I am very happy with myself, if a little let down by her rather dull response. I remember to try and stabilize the dream and start to rub my hands together. The dream fades and I wake up.

not very exciting, but done.

Wow, TOTM at 6 LDs, that's pretty darn impressive. And with a blonde in the shower no less...

p.s. Coincedence? I asked a cute blonde girl DC her name last night and the answer was "Gippie" and I shook her hand. That was before I knew what the TOTM was (and it was non-lucid).

Oh wow, that's kinda freaky

Crazy about the parallel dreams..go us!

Thanks for the kudos, but I would rather have a 5 minute lucid and not complete the task, than serendipitously knock out the the task in a 10 second dream!
