Thread: Task of the month for January 2010

While I was looking for MoSh I saw someone with a tray filled with beers. That reminded me of the Task of the Month on Dreamviews. Drink a glass of Champaign? Yes. I wondered if there was Champaign at the party. If there was I would have to find it first. I didn't want to be distracted from the dream that much. I would summon my own Champaign. I focused on doing that and a bottle of Champaign appeared in my right hand and a glass and bottle opener in my left. I popped the cork. POP! The cork ejected out in a rain of colorful bubbles. It was really cool. People near me stopped talking to look. I could actually hear the music now! I poured myself a glass of Champaign and drank it down. It wasn't as bad as I had been expecting. I don't generally like Champaign. But it was pretty good. I handed the bottle to someone standing near me.

"Raven?" the someone said. I looked at the man. I recognized him. It was MoSh!

"Hey, MoSh!" I said, "Nice party!" I summoned another glass. "Go ahead and do your task of the month, basic task. Have a glass of Champaign! It's really not bad!"

MoSh took the bottle and drank from it. He handed it to someone else. "Damn! I wanted beer!"

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but who is MoSh?

Anyway, I actually tried and failed at this one!!

I became Lucid last night (probably around 8:00 this morning, in actuality) and I remembered to turn into a dog (which took a couple of tries) but then forgot everything else!

I was in this giant office-building sort of place, the looked like it was built out of some crazy foreign version of Legos, where the pieces come in colors like purple and gold. I was doing a little "almost flying," where I was able to briefly defy gravity but nto out-and-out fly, when I realized that this meant I was dreaming. I somehow recalled that we hade a new month/task, and I remembered to turn into a dog. I didn't remember anything else, but it seemed to me that I would just naturally figure out the rest once I had transformed.

But, of course, I didn't, and I spent the rest of the dream flying around, my lucidity coming and going. Also, at some point I morphed back into a human, and it's unclear if this was deliberate or not.

Another user on DV: Man of Shred. He didn't remember it, though, so it's not really a confirmed shared dream.

Ah.

basic task

1/5

...there’s another scene change and now i’m indoors. there are two men looking at a menu on a wall discussing cheeses. i walk through a short corridor of blank walls and into a large dining area. there are big arrangements of food on most of the tables, but there are only a couple people in the area, who are seated. most of the food seems to be pizza - large pizzas with colorful toppings. i think to myself that i need to find something else.

i see a loaf of bread covered in chocolate and put a piece in my mouth. i turn around - CHAMPAGNE! the glass is distinguishable (narrow w/ stem) and it looks very bubbly. i still have the chocolatey bread in my mouth but i pour the whole glass into my mouth anyways. the taste of these two things combined doesn’t really register - it’s like spongy air. i wake up before i can look for something else to consume.


i think my sense of smell in dreams is better than my sense of taste - or i've just used it more

Nicely done cygnus and Raven

My first task of the month completed!

I remembered the task of the month and tried summoning a glass of champagne into my hand. I kept forming my hand like I was holding a wine glass. Disappointed that it wasn't working, I glanced down at the floor. There was a wine glass full of champagne sitting on the floor right in front of my dad. Excited, I grabbed and drank. It didn't taste like anything much, almost like air, and it burnt a little for some reason.

You can go to my journal and read the whole thing if you want, it's not very interesting though.
