The t-shirt is good if it's hot, but if it's not hot at all, and it's a bit cold, it requires some pijama pants, and I guess this night gown would do it...



This guy reminds me of Walter Bishop... a man I like... and as I remember he liked to sleep nude

I think I bit off more than I could... stomach for the bonus task. I have to admit that I actually got to a point where I decided to chicken out, but with good reason because the dream had gone horribly wrong at that point. Still, I think it was a good try and worth sharing. I think you all will find the humor in it.

The full dream: Birth - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

My wife gets up and starts cleaning or doing some task. I am focused on my stomach. Its flat again and I have to will myself to look pregnant. Once satisfied, I start pushing but if feels like going to the bathroom. I let out a few dream farts making me wonder about my physical body. This isn't working. I feel my crotch and clothing. I get naked and try to imagine a vagina while pushing. No good. I feel normal down there. Ok its C-Section time.

I ask my wife to cut me open and she gives me that look that I get when I'm being a dork. I use expectation to get her to cooperate while I focus on my belly again. I begin to use some emotion and think of this a little differently. Unfortunately, sci-fi movies enter my mind. I think of the Shit Weasel from Dreamcatcher and the Chestburster from Alien. My stomach starts churning and I see something with a long slender face pushing out against my flesh. I moan the words, "It's an alien."

My wife appears with an x-acto knife and begins to make a cut. My skin seems extra tough and the blade catches a bit then flicks off making a gross sound. It reminds me of trying to cut up a whole chicken with a dull knife. I see that even-though she hasn't really cut me, there is a nice scoring on my skin. I push and press trying to open it up but it doesn't work. I tell Alysha that she will have to cut really deep this time. She makes another cut and this time she opens me up.

I have a open cavity just above my bellybutton about six inches long with very little blood. Inside, I see something like a thick, congealed blood clot to the left and the other side has white-ish looking flesh like a part of my intestine or stomach. I don't see anything else in there and I assume that I will have to go deeper to reach the Alien inside me. I realize this has gone horribly wrong and I wish that I had never attempted this task. This whole experience has become too much for me to handle and I begin to feel really sick and woozy. I want out. My vision begins to fade and I frantically pull myself out of the dream.

Well that's about as close as a guy will get to the whole childbirth thing, more specifically the horror movie type. So kudos to Xanous for going as far as he did.

Also, :hurl:

I did the Advanced Task i. I saw a stage and people were setting up their instruments. I run up to it like it's my show and take over. I sang stuff. I kept forgetting lyrics back and forth. The audience left. Only to be replaced by... a room full of people in white T-shirts. I kept singing and kept messing up. I suddenly saw myself in 3rd person, as if I were in the audience. Someone was complaining that the show was okay but that I had a bad voice. Meanwhile on stage I was like, "screw you, I do whatever I pleases." When I finished, there were only a few people left in the room. And bounced off stage and thanked them for coming -- with swag.

(*sob* why don't they like me... the room full of white-shirted people... I think it's because I watched The Real Slim Shady music video by Eminem earlier that day... lol)

Another fail for the limerick task, but a win for the baby & TK tasks!

Dream is here: http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/~+dr...totm%5D-57809/

I decided to try the bonus task, 'Mother's Day: Give birth in a lucid dream.'
I sat down on the floor and imagined that it was going to be quick and painless. I lent backwards and looked down. I think I was wearing a skirt, so I didn't see anything too graphic. I watched as the baby's head emerged, and then the body, and then it 'popped out' and slid across the room. I saw that it was a plastic toy baby, but it was covered in vernix from the birth. I considered going to pick it up to see if it would come to life, but I wanted to get on with the other tasks, so I left it there.

The next task I remembered was the basic task ii, 'Star Wars Day: Use The Force in any of its well-known uses, i.e. telekinesis, mind control.'
I looked around and saw some orange traffic cones in the middle of the street. I put my hands out in front of me and used TK to make one of the cones fly up in the air. I made it hover there while I lifted a second cone into the air. I made both cones fly up a little higher, and then slowly lowered them down to their original positions on the ground.

I remembered my failed attempt at the advanced task ii, 'Limerick Day: Create a limerick - You could find it written down, hear it on the radio, or ask a DC.'
I decided to try again - this time, I'd just try to make one up myself while I was lucid. There were a few DCs around, so I tried to make a limerick about one of them. I got halfway through a couple of different limericks, but I couldn't think of enough lines to complete one. I was going through the alphabet, trying to find rhyming words, but coming up empty.
I found myself in a classroom. There was a student standing up the front, about to read out a poem.
I thought, "Great! I'll have to pay attention so I can remember this."
He started reading out a haiku instead of a limerick, and everyone was shouting out, "A haiku was last month's task! It's supposed to be a limerick!" and throwing wads of paper at him.

Basic task II:

I don't know if this counts, because it was a non-lucid dream, and it wasn't one of the most famous "force-enabled" skills, but still I seem to remember a lot of extraordinary jumping over impossible distances going on in Star Wars, so here goes ...

I was walking along a pavement (US: sidewalk) when, passing a store, I noticed a handle for some technical equipment (maybe a lamp, or a fan) which would function as the on/off-switch. The handle had the shape of a clothes-hanger, and it was positioned about 4 meters (around 12 feet) above the ground.

Resolutely, I jumped up, caught the hanger, and pulled it. And subsequently landed safely again.

Now, this may be a decidedly pedestrian use of "the force" - in every sense of the word - but I was mightily content with that one massive jump (from a standing position even - no building up of speed beforehand ).

Come to think of it, I never saw the store-owner. He must have been one tall fellow ...

I've approached that dilemma mainly in two different ways. The first way, was to just satiate myself, then go to bed. The second way was to just go to bed. In my experience if I just do it before going to bed, or sometime earlier that day, it drastically increases the likelihood that I will have a wet dream compared to if I don't. And these are times when I think, okay, it's been a while, I should take care of things now so there's no mess later. But just about every time, that has 100% backfired within a few days time. I even had it backfire when I fell asleep on a road trip in the back seat! Now that was awkward. I thought to myself, "It hasn't even been 24 hours, this is precisely what I was trying to avoid" lol. Actually, 3 times on that same leg of the drive. Amazing dreams, but not the right place to be asleep for them.

I suppose you could twist those sort of dreams into the bonus task somehow. It might be a NSFW dream though.

I'm not sure what your experiences are either way, hopefully everyone has better luck than I do!

Finally someone with a mind more rotted with sex dreams than mine, Were going to the dogs,
The Dogs I say

3 times on the same leg? O_O

christ.

My dreams seem to follow the fishing forecast, In the dark of the moon is the best, and even the first quarter is not to bad and during the full moon is good if it's windy but! From there on they continue downhill to where I almost wish I could forget how to recall..I don't know why this is,
Maybe I'm a "Pike" .

Oh Xanous!!
How horrible!
Huge kudos for trying and not giving up - brrrr.

Happens a lot to me, too, that I have non-lucid-task dreams Voldmer - good luck!

And upon second thoughts - I guess, there is a bigger difference in disturbance-intensity between men and women than I thought..

I was driving from Denver to San Francisco, so there was plenty of time.

Honestly, that was an anomaly, perhaps one of those things where you focus too much on what you don't want and you get exactly what you're focusing on. It seems to only happen when I recognize that it would be inconvenient, and try to prevent it. I suppose I can blame the car, maybe there was too much road vibration or something lol.

Yeah, I'm embarrassed about it, but thought I might shed some light on things. Now no one will read my posts ever the same again


Normally in dreams I just don't go there, even when tempted, so it's not an issue. One time I had a dream of being in bed with my gf at the time, and suddenly realized I was dreaming. Being in complete control, I could do anything, and what do I do? TK her body out of the way a bit, and blast a hole in her wall with fireballs... Not sure if fireballs are part of the force or not, either way it wasn't in this month, so it wouldn't count.

Well I had a non-lucid bonus task dream, right after a lucid dream. So close!

In a crowded room of people all sleeping on couches and the floor, I am looking after a pregnant woman who seems concerned about giving birth. I wish I could help her somehow, and am suddenly in her shoes, pregnant. I feel some pressure as I realize that the baby has to come out now, no delay. So I lay on my back and push. Like pushing out a turd when the turd is coming no matter what. It actually felt a lot like pooping. I reached down to help the baby out, and instead of a baby, it was a warm, brown puppy! A friendly puppy with big floppy ears, full of energy. He jumped up, and immediately started running around. Someone behind me grabbed him and told me he's theirs not mine. "But I just gave birth to him!"

I had a nice, clear DILD, but I got the TOTMs confused with one of my own personal lucid goals, which was to be a guy and take a whizz. I'll link the dream as soon as I finish posting it in my journal.

I got the starwars task and failed the shots task .-.

I pointed my hand at a car and moved my hand up. The car floated up, following my hand, and then I put it back down. Then, I tried to lift my sister up into the air, but it didn't work. Since I had already done it with the car, I decided to try the shots task. I reached into my pocket and tried to pull out some glasses, but there was nothing there. I went around and asked some people where I could find some, but nobody knew where any were. Then I woke up.

more of the dream in my dream journal: Partay - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Well this is the first task I have been able to do for a long time so pretty excited!

Excerpt from dream journal below.

I turned toward the front door and thought of the TOTM and planned to do telekinesis, I have done this before in other dreams so was comfortable with it. I saw a little wooden vase on the table by the door and concentrated on tossing it up in the air. It flew straight up to the ceiling and bounced off it. I wanted to experiment further with something bigger. I spotted the couch (which was a huge sectional) and with a little more will was able to lift it straight off the ground as well. It flew into the ceiling. As I am doing this I use my hands to guide what I am moving with my mind. Lastly behind me was a Christmas tree with a bunch of presents around it, I concentrated again and lifted all the presents and tree with my powers. Pretty sweet! I thought what do I want to do next.

And the other Basic.

I was headed back from a different part of my house and ran across the bar again. I looked and there was a full shot on the counter. I picked it up and looked at it, there was salt around the rim and I assumed it was my tequila shot. I drank it and it tasted like sprite and lime I guess, kinda fresh. I then grabbed a lime off the counter and ate it to get the flavor gone, plus that is what you do after a tequila shot. I don't remember what happened after this.

TOTM for May 2014: Telekenesis and a Shot! - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

This is awful...
First giving birth to a dill pickle now this.
We have just got to come up with other tasks besides egg laying and giving birth or anything else that might come out of a human,

5/24
6:00am I woke up in bed and the room was still dark although it was daylight outside and I counted all the fingers that split into two fingers and said "Ahaa Gotcha" I seemed to be dressed for the time and first went to the bathroom to play faces in the mirror but when I got just inside the door I felt crawly inside and thought of the birth task again and squatted trying to pull down what appeared to be women's pink underpants but they wouldn't come off so I pushed hard and something blew out thru them and went splat on the floor and when I looked back there was a pearly colored creature like a baby octopus with a bulb head that seemed to be one big eyeball and then it took off like a rocket with me paddling hot on its ass out into the hallway where the cat pounced on it and dragged it under the bed and I could hear it growling and crunching the thing and by the time I got to look under the bed both the thing and the cat were gone and I was laughing like a fool and started waking up wondering WTF....

I did a very fine and vivid job of finding easter eggs and cracking them open! They were vivid and truely like painted goose eggs!

Too bad I thought that was a TOTM this month,,, darn dream logic!

Here it is anyways, a lot late, 05/24/14 Easter Eggs in the Pines - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

lol!

Advanced Task i. I've done this before but I had so much fun that I wanted to go for it again.

I become bored and recall the music TOTM. I drop all dream sensation and willingly enter the void. I announce myself but as I start speaking it turns into another voice. I see Arsenio Hall speaking into a mic but his voice sounds a little off.
“LAAAAADIES AAAAND GENTELMEN. WELCOME MASTER DJ MIKE IN THE MOTHER F**KING HOOOUSSSEEE!”
I realize I am walking in a club but not on stage. I am heading to the bar. There are green and pink neon lights on the walls and the room is sort of small. I take it all in a little shocked at my creation. I remember my part and keep on walking. I reach the bar and feel all eyes are on me. Not knowing how to play this off, I say, “Hey! I'm DJ M.I.K.E. To the C!!! Ya'll ready to paaaarrtty?” (lame I know but it was on the fly )
I am answered by a whooping from the audience but it sounded like not very many people joined in.
“ Hey bartender I'll take a 5th of vodak. Oh ya'll have to be more excited than that. That was kind of weak.” The bartender gives me a look but reaches under the counter for something. I laugh. “Nah nah I'm just kidding. I just want one drink. Like a beer.” The bartender gives me a polite nod.

I suddenly wake but stay calm and DEILD back in. I tell myself the dream beer doesn't matter. I wasted time when I should have been getting busy.

I blindly reach for a mic and a turntable and the physcial sensations are immediatly vivid. I make a basic beatbox into the mic and set it to loop. It sounds really weak at first but I turn some knobs and flip some switches and some techno music fills in. It sounds really good now and I hear the crowd cheer. I am encouraged by this and get really excited. My vision is still dim but I can now see the mixing board. I continue on, adding various sounds with the mic to the overall sound of the music. It becomes very much like dubstep and sounds really amazing and vivid. I enjoy this for quite some time and begin to dance, jerky and spastic. I wonder how the audience would react but I don't care much; It matches the beat and feels good. This doesn't last long though. I eventually jerk my physical body waking myself up.

When you do it try it in front of a mirror so you can watch whats going on..The first time I became a girl I used a mirror, It was really fun, I should try it again

Ok, if I used telekinesis in my first LD that I had few days ago is counting as task of the mount achievement?
