Thread: Lucid Tasks for the Month of May 2008

Well, I tried, but I failed.

I read the tasks, this morning, and decided that when I took a nap, later, I would try it (I was able to take a nap since my youngest wasn't here, this morning ).

Once I reached SP, I "threw" my self off the bed, and walked out into the living room. It was really blurry, for some reason; very low clarity. I stood by the kitchen bar, and wondered what I was going to do. I remembered the task about eating something that wasn't edible.

I started looking around for something. I thought about ripping a page from a magazine and eating it, but that seemed dumb. Then, I looked at a banana sitting on the counter, but then realized that it was edible. I walked down the hall toward the den, and spotted the AirWick scented oil plug-in. Ah-ha! I decided I was going to try to eat the wick off of it. So, I pulled the the little glass refill out of the warmer. It looks like this

I tried to bite off the top of the wick. I wasn't able to completely bite it off, but a bit did come off. It didn't taste like anything. I tried to swallow it, but then I woke up.

I'm going to try to attempt the tasks, this weekend.

Need an account of the dream.

I know. But will it count?

I guess it would count, you got up high?

I only climbed the beanstalk for the last story (after the stairs ended). And I don't think it was a very tall building; less than 10 stories probably.

Hmm, I have to go read the wording of the task. *Runs to first page*


Climb a beanstalk to another place, tell us what you find

Hmm... The stairs had ended, was that part of the building different?

I climbed it into a room that had no door.

Oh well, lets just not count it. It's just the first of the month anyway and I can do better.

Both of these sound fun, I'll try them if I remember next time I go lucid.

Eat something uneatable?
Does my mother's cooking count? I swear I can't stomach her food.

*edit*

I like the beanstalk thing. There better be something good at the top of it.

I love the basic badge. lol. It looks like he's going "NOM NOM NOM"!

I was thinking that it was going more like WAKKA WAKKA WAKKA

Yeah Vex, there better be something cool up there, or else it doesn't count

I'm going to conjour you, Ninja, at the top of that beanstalk and then I can get revenge for those wings you gave me last month.

I did the basck task of the month! its in my dream journal, highlighted in purple. my latest entry

I love the basic Badge too. 3D pacman rules!

Mmm, oranges. On noes, have to hide from Vex now

Completed Basic Totm: I was in my kitchen with a rattle snake and decided to take out a sample of its venom. I brought it upstairs to my bedroom and held its head down and draped its fangs over the side of a glass container. A few teaspoons of venom poured out and I remember thinking not to let it turn its head around and bite me; like it had happened before or something. I brought the venom downstairs and set it on the kitchen table, and then out of nowhere I took a swig of it and garggled it a bit. After swallowing it, nothing happened for about 20 seconds and then some pain set in. My mouth became clenched and I wanted to phone my dad or the hospital. As for the taste.. have you ever had this liquid candy called 'venom'? It tasted like sour apple. Coincidently on the front of the 'venom' candy bottles is a rattlesnake

I was at some sort of restaurant and I was getting a coke out of a vending machine.I put a dollar in the machine and I got back $100 I did a reality check (this was the first time I was actually hoping it wasn't a dream lol).It was a dream and I remembered the basic task "eat something uneatable". Took me a while to find something good and I finally fount a pencil off of one of the tables.
I put it in my mouth and started chewing.It tasted REALLY salty and crunchy.It was horrible.I almost wanted to throw up in my lucid dream lol ( I swallowed it though).After I did the task I had a false awakening.I did a RC but my nose was stuffed up and I thought I was awake.

Soo, made the first task last night for the heck of it, I took several big chunks of a steelfence next to the school were I grew up as a kid. It tasted like water in away(more like ice maby) but in it's consistence had a more meringuelike thing to it as some of it kind of melted away from my tounge. It was wery hectic and I would somewhat consider this dream a faliure otherwise since this was actualy the only thing I managed to do because of the stress, there were cars everywhere and of course they moved when I didn't wan't them to move because of the subconsious, there were also a lot of dcs shouting at me all the time, disturbing my dream. Because of this I didn't even manage to fly which I'm normaly wery good at, I also failed to do the second task again, I've noticed I'm pretty good at summoning roots and beanstalks and stuff(propably because of some videogame or something), so this I managed to do, I had to do it in the middle of all the traffic and so it broke a bus on the middle and came out of it, the problem was that I couldn't reach it from ground because of the traffic so I thought of flying up, this failed due to the stress.

Great observation Naiya! Sort of looks like it is eating clouds just like you did.

i hate my computer!!!!!it just lagged and deleted my message right when i was done with it......*controls rage* right. i messed up the advanced task.instead of climbing the beanstalk i was the beanstalk and people were climbing me to get to this awesomely beautiful cloud scape.
i had a bit too much fun with the basic task...
the first night i was at my uncle's house by the swing set.there are pebbles under the swings so i ate some. they tasted like marbles and chocolate rocks.they were actually pretty good so i ate a few handfuls...then i stood up and started to chew on the plastic covering on the swing chain, it just tasted like rubber so i tryed to eat the metal chain underneath but i couldn't because i was waking up and it was just hard cold metal.the same night in a different dream that i have no memory of except that i was eating a hockey puck.it tasted like coconut and was very chewy.a different night i was battling a random dc and after i had killed him i remembered the task. i took off a chunk of my samuri armour and ate it, it was like flaky pastry crust. next time i try the advanced task i waill try not to be the bean stalk...

Wow ray, you were the bean stalk? That's awesome I'll go get you silver wings

Basic task completed!

I had some silly and boring lucid dream where I was in my parents' living room. (I still live here, for the time being) Just out of the blue, I remembered the basic task of the month. I hurried to the kitchen to find something to eat. I was so excited over remembering the task that I almost woke up. I looked around for something suitable, But most of the items there were sharp and solid (like knives), so I had a hard time choosing. I spotted some thin cardboard (the kind used for cereal boxes etc) and decided to eat it. I ripped off a piece and stuffed it in my mouth. It was surprisingly easy to chew and swallow. It tasted a bit bitter, but other than that it didn't have much flavor.

I'm walking through this house and the first thing I do is grab the cabinet door rip a chunk from it and started eating it. It tasted like one of those wafers....i cant think of the name of it, but it has peanut butter on the inside, and I'm not even sure they sell em anymore. And I tried the beanstalk thing several times. It kept coming out of the ground as a tree. I tried to climb up it anyway, and reached the ceiling, and then it fell over. I went outside and tried it again. Same deal....I would get really high and it would fall over, but I never went anywhere.

I actually got the basic done on the first day but haven't gotten round to posting it here. Anyways...

I was in this huge battle and there was this giant chasing me,I sudenly realized I was dreaming and blasted him away. I remembered the basic task and i remembered telling myself in RL to eat a chair for the task.(stone btw) There were a few benches but for some reason i just decided to take a mouthful of concrete from the path below me. It was weird, extrememly crunchy, felt sandy too but it didn't scratch my mouth. I couldn't really actually taste much, I could feel the texture much better.

Too bad I wasn't paying that much attention during the ld. I probably should have. Ah well.
