Lol Snowy. I guess you don't screen for sarcasm either, do you?

Yeah, but I just like answering rhetorical and sarcastic questions.

Only slightly by accident?

After quite a few months off, I finally completed a Task of the Month. I looked up the TOM last week and found that the basic was one I do all the time anyway, so I figured that I should do it and get some credit. Of course this is the last day of the month, so it's not going to be much credit. But for what it's worth, here it is:

Dream:

I was jumping on a trampoline. I was suddenly partially lucid. The dream faded. But like before I was able to force the scene around me so I was back on the trampoline. As I jumped I noticed tootsie rolls on the trampoline bouncing around. I thought. "Yes, this is a dream I can eat candy!" So I started eating the tootsie rolls. (This obviously wasn't my best LD or I would have realized that I didn't have to be satisfied with toosie rolls, and I could have created chocolate truffles or something that I enjoy more. But surprisingly the tootsie rolls tasted pretty good to me.)

So I ate and jumped and then I started doing flips. At that moment I remembered that the Task of the Month was to do flips/somersaults in the air. So I continued for a while, flipping and trying to stay in the air for longer than normal.. I have always liked doing what I call "dream flips" so I felt that this was using my LD wisely.

But after while I suddenly wanted to do something really different. I don't really remember how it happened--if I created it or it just appeared. But suddenly I was in the Death Star. I was looking down at a very large meeting. I could see Darth Vader sitting in the middle of this huge group of people all sitting around him in this stadium like setting.

I decided that I wanted to have some fun. I was feeling very brave and in control. So I flew down to Darth Vader and kicked him in the chest and then quickly flew back up and out of the stadium.

It was so uneventful that I purposely waited for someone to start chasing me. Finally I was aware that one of the head guys was coming after me, and I felt a little thrill of excitement.

And then I woke up.

Last minute task of the month, basic task! I did a somersault through the air over the Assassin to kill the Templar behind him. Here is the dream excerpt...

It was clear the Assassin thought I'd snapped and was attacking him… and he didn't seem sure of how to respond to that. It was obvious he didn't want to fight a fellow Assassin whether that was a man or a woman. Right as I got in front of the Assassin I jumped into the air and did a flip, coming down right on top of the Templar behind him sword first. I drove the sword right into his head. He crumpled to the ground in a heap. The Assassin turned around and saw the Templar I had just killed.

But I'm not even going to try the advanced one!

Where's December's TOTM?
