Okay, here's a few snippets from my journal.
The bit about the leprechaun:
Quote:
I reckon this is a neat trick, and decide to use it to get myself a leprechaun (other lucid task for the month).
I 'zoom out' and transform into green hair and clothes and hat. My hair turns black despite my attempts though.
As I spin around into my body, a leprechaun, as intended, is next to me.
But he shrinks quickly until he's the size of my small finger. I pick him up and ask him for money, but he squeals and refuses.
I squeeze him and it looks really amusing, like a dog toy. I think some money comes out, but I soon forget about the money and just enjoy squishing him - cos it looks so wierd.
I feel a bit guilty after a few squeezes and I apologize and put him down.
He doesn't look impressed.
He breathes in a few times, and he grows in size. His proportions change though, and his chest fills out making him look a bit scary.
And he gets this wierd little mustache and butler coat.[/b]
The bit about bobbing for apples (old task):
Quote:
So I walk a bit inland, looking for water before thinking 'what the hell - just summon it, twit'
So I walk to a nearby tree, look away, and look back on a quaint half barrel of water. A few fruits drop into it from the tree above.
Most are green, but 2 are red. I throw out the green ones.
I start bobbing, and almost get it when a little crocodile creature tries to take my face off - just like the shark did.
I grab it by the tail and fling it out.
This time I 'corner' the apple against the side of the barrel and manage to pick it up. Happy with myself, the apple disappears and I start thinking about what to do next.[/b]
And finally, the bit about going into the sun (which I *think* is a very old task):
Quote:
So I jump into the air and spin around - turning into a ball of fire.
I head towards the sun as fast as I can. It takes a few seconds before the sun is in sight.
But when I hit the damn thing, I bounce back!
I examine this and realize that my fire and it's fire has different patterns (although both very pretty)
So I put a veneer of the sun's pattern around me, and slip into the sun.
In side are about 6 little dark-skinned men pulling levers.
And for some reason I keep turning into 'Jak' (from the game). I struggle to keep my form.
The little men say 'you're not meant to be here!' with some shock in their voices, and after a second or two they yell 'let's get out of here'
They head for the far end of the sun where I see there's a set of big double doors.
I walk towards it, and hesitate, wondering what will happen if the sun is left unattended.
I figure 'screw that' and look at the open door. Beyond it is total darkness - like it's sucking in all light.
I walk into it, and .. wake up. Not even a chance to stop it. darn.

I see now that the sun task was 'go to the sun and bring back a piece'
I didn't bring back a piece ... so bleh :~
But I see one of the old tasks was 'stop traffic any way you like'. I've done that in one of my lucids - so I'll stick that in my sig too.
