Turquoise Dreams

Miles long store

I'm working in a store of a size of a small city. There is thousands of workers, separate departments, shelves incredibly high, conveyor belts transporting goods and people.

We have 2 toilets and sleeping quarters near our department, so we don't even need to leave. Someone took our second toilet out and put shelves there. I don't like it and I set off to look for it. I walk for what seems like hours. I go so far, that I kinda get lost and I come to some kind of a border, where you need passports to get back into a store. I'm like I just left to find our toilet, didn't take my passport with me. But luckily I'm in my uniform and they let the bus with me and other people in uniform through.

Someone shows me a map of where I am and how to get back to my department. They make a mark with invisible ink which slowly starts to turn yellow. I gather that I need to follow yellow marks on the floor to get back.

I hop on a huge conveyor belt and then on another one. Map shows that I'm an 839 miles away from my department. I ask a guy how the hell did I walk that far?

I'm walking through a storage area. Look up and there are palets stacked 10 high and a bit leaning, leaving just a very narrow and winding passage through there. I hope an earthquake won't hit at that time.

I get to talk some girls and I find out they work in the thin mints isles. I'm like whoa, this place is huge, if 5-6 people stack just one item and it has so much shelf space. We make a plan to get together later.



Ophelia
I remembered this when I got up, all I remember now is what I wrote down.

Ophelia

I leave
it's you

Last night bed at 9pm - 4:30am but couldn't fall asleep till well into 11 pm

DREAM

I'm at work. We need to move boxes and fix things. Director asks me to do stuff so I'm running around with a small black shopping cart, putting boxes in their right places.

DREAM YESTERDAY

I'm going to school on my bicycle. Ground is covered in deep snow, with tracks left by cars. It's a bit melted and so hard to go through. I see people cutting through a walkway between tall buildings, but I keep going, then turn left to my school. But the road is blocked by police with some K-bars. Now I know why everybody was cutting through the other way. I find a place where I can lift my bike over and I continue.

At school, a very common theme is not being able to find my class. I'm wandering the building, up and down the stairs, asking everybody, checking the rooms, but I cant find where they are. It's already into second lesson, and I'm still not in the class.

Bed 8:30pm - 3:20 am

DREAM 1
Few of us have some luggage going on a luggage belt, so we decide to follow it as not to lose it. We get on a belt. I'm not sure if it's safe, more likely not safe. I see a guy sitting in front of me, so I assume the belt tunnel is not gonna get too low. But I still almost lay down as not to have my head sticking out.

There is a lady standing by the belt as we go by, kinda smiling understandably, so I'm reasonably sure it's gonna be safe. Even if the sign says there is a wrapping machine with some blades coming up.

DREAM 2
I'm in a warehouse. Someone is coming to visit so we suppose to clean it up. So someone takes some heavy equipment and pushes the whole isle over to the wall, so a new, clean isle got pulled in it's place. Done, haha.

DREAM 3
I'm sitting on top of some high box or cabinet. I'm all dirty, vaguely remembering that I had to escape through some muddy water or something.

Nap soon after coming home from work.

DR:
I finished my work and still had 2 hrs from my shift. Me and my boss are stumped because that's the opposite of reality, kinda joking that I could go home. I decide to check on things that I don't have time for every day because of time constraints. I'm finding items in all kinds of strange places, expired long time ago and I'm pulling them off.

Nap yesterday.
I'm at home, house I grew up in. I'm trying to change some light bulbs in the living room that burned out. Many lights are not working. Finally one in the kitchen works. I'm sorry I didn't start turning them on earlier, because by then it's getting dark and I'm a bit scared.

Now I'm still feeling like I'm at home, but I don't recognize the house. My 2 cats in another room suddenly start to growl at some noise by the door. Someone just walked in. I yell at my dad in another room if he is home, that someone is in the house. I run to the kitchen and I'm grabbing a metal rod sitting in the sink, hoping it's a baseball bat. But it's just a shower curtain rod and I'm wondering if it's gonna be too light. I grab another rod for my dad.

I wake up and not a moment too soon, because this was turning into a nightmare.

Dream at 12:35am

1. There is some kind of a huge building construction. I fly up and there is something about stamps wrapped up in wrapping paper.

2. Now I'm going to a river and I'm pulling out people that escaped from a fire that I see burning on the other side of the river. When i say I see smoke, the smoke starts rising and it's getting stronger.

3. I'm showing someone how I practice making fire. How it's easy. I put a hand on some piece of wood and I make it char. There is no fire or smoke smell when I sniff it. Then I focus some more and I make flames come out and smoke that changes color based on what I want it to look like.

4. I'm in a kitchen, my store director is cooking there too. I ask what else I can help with. She says I was suppose to start the tamales, but I didn't. I tell her yes I did and I show her a pot of stuff with green sauce and bag of corn tortillas. I wash my hands in the pot of green sauce and I'm mortified that she saw me and why in the world would I do that. I think of an excuse: If I'm to work tomales with my hands, I better have them coated with that sauce.

Last night bed at 10 pm.

1am - 2x300 mgs Alpha GPC
3am - WBTB
3:17am - 2x4 mgs Galantamine and sofa
5am? waking up from lucids (forgot to note the exact time)

Started out on my back with my cat across my legs. Noticed some stomach ache and I realized I didn't eat any bread with choline or galantamine as I used to.

Turned to my left side and got lucid almost immediately after.

Non-lucids remembered at 3 am:

DR1:
Me and Ophelia are coworkers. We are together in some town that's not hers or mine. She needs to drive back and it's getting late, so I offer her to sleep over.

As we are walking, she mentions that she got a new job, teaching in Canada. I'm shocked. She says she starts ( I expect to hear "next year"), but she says "next week". I'm so surprised and hurt, I can't even say anything. I suggest that we could both get jobs babysitting in US instead.

DR2:
Still Ophelia, this time at my house. Same scenario, she is leaving, I offer her to stay...

LUCIDS:
1. - Dildo market
I'm walking through some indoor market place. I stop at a stall that displays dildos. Beautiful, dark wood, shiny, glass... All kinds, shapes and sizes. I say I want one, and gorgeous young black dudes lounging near start to giggle. I keep browsing but I don't see what I like. I ask them to show me more. One young, blond beauty says ok, walks to the back with me and starts to undo his pants. I say I would like to test drive some and the black dudes keep giggling. When I'm sitll not seeing what I would like, the offer to make me one and start bringing all kinds of materials. I ask what for and they say "for a display case". Black dudes are now roaring when I reply "NO, I only want the THING".

2. - I'm flying through some futuristic city, high among the sky scrapers. It's at night and cloudy. I see a huge billboard with some scary, cloudy skies. I decide I want to go there and see if i can find some intense place. As I come closer, it changes into an image of some huge factory hall. I decide I don't want to go there and I pull myself out of the image.

3. - Same city, over some highways and freeways partially suspended in the air. I'm watching cars pass by when I remember the TOTM - lift a car and carry it somewhere.

I stop a yellow car with my hand up and I pick it up with my hands. It turns into a radio, so I put it on my shoulder and listen to the music while I go and pick up some more cars. I lift one up and put it on a tractor trailer that's near by, so it still goes somewhere after I stopped it, haha. The driver looking at me is Tom Cruise.
I pick up few more cars, same way by standing in front of them and lifting them with my hands. They are weightless. I move them around a bit and put them down. Just as I practiced during day, haha.

4. I look at the dark stormy cloudy skies and decide to fly there for some action. I am noticing that I'm looking for some intense and normally scary things to do in this lucid.

5. I think this was a first one. I look up at the skies and see something. I don't remember what it was but I straighten up and take of flying there. It is something blue with red.

Oh, before the lucids, I had lots of sex. No happy ending though.

EDIT:
Non lucid.
I'm at work, doing markdowns. A man and a woman come up, showing me a list of floral deliver and they want me to sign for it. Dude swears it's all in there. I tell him we are not allowed to sign, they need to find some kind of a manager. Almost identical to what happened just day before. Amazing.

Bed early last nigh, 7:30pm - 3:25 am

Had some food again that gave me kinda bad dreams

DR:
A guys was about to atack a woman. Now she is holding his head on the table while I pick up some small blunt object like a vase and start hitting him on the head. I wonder when it will be enough to be subdued. I keep hitting and feel bad about it from the start. Maybe we should not be doing this? I can't stop and his skull is caving in and chunks of brains are flying out with every hit.

Later I come back and that woman pulls a disposable roasting pan out of the fridge. It's the brains in it and some salsa. I get mad, how can someone put brains in the fridge. Not they are rotting and the whole fridge is contaminated. But the woman says she needed the salsa to bathe the baby. Even my dream self says wtf?

DR2:
I'm cutting mangos on a table that has a glass protective wall. Kinda like in a lab where the scientist's hands are inside a glass compartment or just behind a glass wall. I'm trying something new, smearing mango like a spread, while customer is standing behind me waiting for his mangos. We both decide that smearing mangos is NOT the way to go.

Then customers want sandwitches and I'm like ok, even though I don't normally make them. So I made a few, had to go to another rooms to look for ingredients. Turns out some customers thought they are free. I show the the add saying that something is free when they buy a sandwich. They still insist. I'm like whatever, took me a long time to make it, but take it for free.

So weird.

Last night bed around 9 pm - 4am

When I woke up in the morning, I could not recall any dreams. I recalled one later:

[12:11] <@gab> I had such a vivid dream about work last night that I had to ask coworker today if it really happened
[12:11] <@gab> I remembered it as I was throwing the load looking towards the floral department
[12:12] <@gab> I still think it could have actually happened, but coworker said it didn§t
[12:12] <@gab> plus they would never do what they did in my dream, haha

So in my dream, I'm walking down the isle 10 towards the back. I hear PA calling someone to assist in floral department. This person was not from produce and they ALWAYS call only produce, because they claim we are one department.

So sharon says on PA: "such and such, help in floral. You are welcome, produce." As in we were thankful they didn't call us.

I was so weirded out by this recall. So, haha, today I was saying mantras half out loud "I am dreaming". So next time I'm sleepworking, i wanna get lucid.

Last night bed at 10 pm - 3:30 am

I'm leaving work/school. We have decided to all go home together, since we all live in same direction. We load up our stuff on a small cart. But they are taking too long and I want to go.

Just before that, I am inside and we are doing some construction. We put some long pieces of wood in their place to be used as something. As we are leaving, I'm asked to close the door that looks like heavy church doors.

As I start walking home alone on a sidewalk full of other pedestrians, my shoe is untied. I bend down to tie it, then I notice a book on the ground. I'm confused how it got there, there is no way it fell out of my backpack. I keep walking. Then I look in the book and there are 2 - 20 dollar silver coins in small roound plastic cases. I realize those belong to the coworker/classmate who lent me the book. I look back and I realize he most likely already left for home. But I decide to go back to be sure. I didn't want him to worry about his coins when he realizes he left them in the book.

I start walking back and I see things on the ground from my backpack. I say that's not possible, but I start gathering them. Some are not mine, they just look like it. But they are every few steps. It's really slowing me down. I compare my cold bag with a DC. I even buy a new backpack then another one. Last one is beige, leather, with a magnet on top that keeps the flap closed. But I don't like it because the top is not secured as it would be with a zipper.

Busy dream where nothing goes right, makes you tired.

Last night, late bed at 10:20 pm because long afternoon nap. Getting up at 3:25am

DR1

I have a puppy or a mouse. We are being chased through the town at night by a guy on a escavator. I can hear it's sound raring as it's coming closer. We are running through the streets, making turns, looking for opened doors or shortcuts to get to next street.

DR2

Me and my brother, we get to some factory. I look up at the classic very tall factory chimney. It has metal rungs that start little higher up. I ask him if we really have to go to the very top while I know that we have to. A man inside knockes my brother out by putting some chemical in his nose. I know I don't have smelling salts to waking up, so I scoop these sleep crystals out of his nose and he wakes up.

DR3

I'm at work. I see that me and one other person are assigned to Isle 9 (NEIN, haha). We can get free potatoes.

5.2.16

Night shift today and tomorrow. Took a 2 hr nap around noon, then slept about 4 hrs from 6:20-10:20pm.

Nap:
I'm at work and T, the manager from another store is there. there is a problem with a hose and he tells me to get the plastic end from an older hose to fix this one.

Bunch of "tourists" are riding on our carts.

Sleep:
My brother with his family is visiting my mom's place. She just got a new place, where I have my own room when I visit, my brother and his family have their own room and my mom and dad have theirs as well.

It's a big place, long hallways between rooms. Strange thing is that the house continues into public space and there is a lobby type of a place with tunnel that's Metro entrance. I look inside and people are allowed to only enter from that side, so no strangers are able to come up from the Metro to the house. But I still find it not safe and there is bunch of strange pedestrians walking around.

I just woke up, getting some snacks and I'm going to see if they are awake. My brothers son is up and I see him through door being ajar so I enter and I see my mom waking up as well.

I get an idea that I should go and live with her. Get a bigger place together from my rent money I pay now and we would still have some leftover from rent and we would save money.

saturday 4.9.16

So I'm at work, again, lol, nothing new. But this time it's unpleasant with mean and spitefull people. I'm trying to get away but I can't. I have to stay and pretend all is good. Boss is some kind of a boss with unlimited authority and at the end he pulls down some guys pants and is about to do him, but then the guy turns around and does something else. There is about 4-5 people just standing around in tight circle watching all this as if it was normal everyday stuff.

Work dreams are a hassle and I really don't care for them, and when they come "enhanced" like this, I really don't care for them. But hey, it was interesting. Anyway, can I pls get some dreams with spaceships or freedom fight or Tahity instead? Thanks : D

3.14.16

Last night bed around 11pm or later.

DR 1 - Bus - remembered at 5:37 am

I'm on a bus with lots of kids. Something happens to the driver and I take over. But there are no breaks. I drive for a long time, winding roads, greenery. Lots of people. I yell out to them to call the cops, call 911, we have no breaks and need help. But they ignore us, don't believe or just act as they didn't hear me.

After a long time we are approaching some old church. I aim it as some wall in hopes it will stop us without hurting anybody. Big door with sign something like "prayer room, or praying in progress" is on the large wooden door straight ahead so I turn the wheel left into a wall where there were no people. I get out of the bus, get on my knees and kiss the cobble stone floor thanking god, while thinking wtha heck am I doing.

Later I'm talking to a nun. She is thanking me for saving everybody but I don't want to make a bid deal about it.

DR 2 - Work - upon waking up around 8am
Long dream being at work. I'm with few others in a break room. Someone opens the door and there is a crowd of people. I'm like why the hell are they waiting outside of the break room. I'm telling someone that if he opens the door and let's them in, he will have to take care of them.

On the salesfloor - there is a bunch of spaghetti sauce jars and some really large ones, size of a bucket are sitting on top of it all, slanted, ready to slide down. I'm about to go tell someone when I decide to take a picture of it first.

As I'm leaving, a dude gets on a forklift that looks like tractor and starts driving it around, bumping into shelves and pushing them out of way. I barely jump away twice and I'm yelling at him to stop. I'm thinking he is an employee bacause of his badge, but when he gets off and walks away casually, I realize it was a customer and I wanna arrest him.

I see my wallet on the cash register and it has all the cards missing. There is some kind of a safety person right there so I tell her, fill out the report, then i find an envelope with all my missing cards. Someone returned them.

This from day before yesterday.

DR 1:

I'm in a hangar sized room in even bigger building. I work at this factory. I'm some kind of a manager and my boss tells me to find a quiet place for our department meetings.

Place looks kinda empty, only bunch of cardboard and wooden boxes.

I find a place in the large room that looks like a mess hall. Thats where I keep my bicykle too.

It's time to go home. It's dark outside and big storm had kicked up. Very windy, I can hear it blowing. It's raining. I decide not to ride my bike home but to call a cab. I do that. Cab takes me like half way. From there I'm walking. Now one of my friends is walking with me. We are passing an old building that looks like renovated castle or something very old.

DR 2:

I am walking through some mountain passage. A nurse is sitcking a thermometer into my mouth to take my temp. I fight her but she says something and I have to comply. Not liking it.

DR 3:
My work is getting remodeled. (it is in WL). I'm looking at the front sliding doors and they are all new and working properly. There is also a sliding screen door and I laugh and wonder how the heck is this going to work.

12.7.15

Slept through night, since I was off. Going to work tonight.

I'm at work, sitting somewhere on some boxes, having lunch, holding a bottle of beer in my hand. I realize it and trying to figure out why I don't do this more often. Then I realize I'm at work : P So I rush to hide it and I put it on a shopping cart full of crap.

I go upstairs and there are cubicles like on The West Wing. Lots of glass walls and doors. There is a former classmate there and we decide to do it. He goes to get ready to he bathroom while I start locking doors and closing shutters. One door is toally off the hinge so can't close it and there is lots of foot traffic. I know it's proly not gonna happen.
