(I consider for terms of dreams that once the night pops up, That's the next day - Not when midnight pops up.)

(Also, I had been listening to some Mudhoney songs in the few hours prior to sleeping.)

I was dreaming that I was in a locked room with two people and perhaps there was cold and I had trouble communicating with one or both of the people. I tried to make sense to one concerning a religious wall in the room and later when I got out Mark MacLaughlin (AKA "Mark Arm") of the band Mudhoney was there and later we returned a coat I apparently stole months ago to someone's house. I then fell down into the house in a small room and I turned computers on, At which point I tried to turn them off and then since I was about to be discovered by the family I tried to turn myself off with a power button on my stomach (This might be sounding rather bizarre or concerning to me) as if I were a computer.

Later, I think I was trying to talk to Mark (Who looked younger than he does now, BTW) and then he started running away. I ran after him as he ducked under at least two fences trying to avoid me and I still went after him. Then, I went near or to his house and a friend of his who was bald had an ATV which he took in through the back door and he was outside but on the other side of the house - There was another door not far from the back door. I or he asked about Mark and one of us answered the other. Then I saw small onions and containers of Agave syrup.

Later, There was talk among Bronies (As I did spend much time in the Equestria Daily chat room - I use the screen name "Barry_From_Mars" there) and I saw Heartbreak (A fanon Pony) there. (It's not the first time I dreamed of her either.) I said that I ate flies and then I ate a green one and I did taste it too. I do not remember actually eating a fly in waking life!

Then there was running near Natrona Heights, PA as if it were a house and I saw sexual imagery including some black creature on a tree that asked if it could do something. Later when I was thinking of something and saw a push-bottle and thought of m*********** the Pixies song "I Bleed" Played as I was next to my car or was in the garage.

Prior to sleeping I'd been thinking of this band and in the dream I had, Mark MacLaughlin (AKA "Mark Arm") had cut off his forearms and yet was still a guitarist somehow, but he looked different and I think he had a beard. I also saw a room with a dead cat in it which was in a vise and I later got in there and found two more dead cats and then was slow in getting out of the room as I heard someone. The other guitarist who's name I think is Steve gave me a soda pop can that was about to explode and I threw it away from me and I said it was funny.

I think this is supposed to mean the band members have "Killed off some of their nine lives".

No, Adam Ant didn't pop up.

I had a lot of dreams this day and perhaps I'll remember a great many of them! These aren't necessarily all in the order they happened, Though I do recall the Love Bug one was before the Thief one and the Flounder one before those two.

___

> (Not sure about this one) I may have been driving and then I thought of "Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude" (Which is a video game I never played) As I was on a road that curved to the left.

___

> In a city or town and I recall something about a theatre

___

> Flounder from The Little Mermaid was under the sea and so was I (In thought), Then Flounder was in seaweed and then something I'm not posting here happened.

___

> In a boat that I had to defend from people gunning us from an airplane, But my guns were inside the ship and I was shooting the ship instead of shooting at the plane. I then went in an elevator down lower into the ship with someone else and was hoping I wouldn't go into a flooded part of the ship.

___

> Then, It was like Who Framed Roger Rabbit and The Three Stooges met The Love Bug in Winter. I saw a Love Bug that was like the cartoon car in the Roger Rabbit movie on the interior, Somewhat (The "THIS LEVER, STUPID" Sign was in there) and several characters including Jessica Rabbit were holding on to the rear of the car and were standing on the bumper as it drove through a snowy area and then they fell off as they drove around my house by the front porch; There wasn't a fence so the car had room to drive. Someone got off the car and ran near the porch as someone was talking to him - This may have been Me or Curly who was running. At some point my mother said "That's funny" As this was a movie or short movie I was watching, At least at one point.

___

> Later, I was in a city and drove to a place I may have thought was a movie theatre. I passed it and had to make a U-turn in a place where it was legal to go back, Then I went in to the garage by driving my car in and it was actually a place in which people just wanted to steal my money and credit cards and cell phone and what possessions the girlfriend in my dream (Who was blond, Had short hair and resembled the woman involved in the lawsuit in the movie Liar Liar) So, I put the windows down in the 1985 Jaguar XJ6 (For some reason I saw from the back seat as the driver's side windows went down) And I started to just throw my money out the window. I didn't give my credit cards or cell phone as I hesitated and didn't want to give them (Though I should give them if I have a dream like this again) and at one point I brought out some reproduction money (And the color yellow comes to mind here) in a stack and asked if they wanted it, One man who was a bit tall and perhaps muscular and also blond with short hair and without a beard or mustache or glasses in a blue shirt said "Naw" (Note; The interior of this garage resembled a garage I know) And I put the reproduction money in the center console in the car while saying something like "Yeah, It's reproduction money." I then got a receipt for the transaction (Do thieves print receipts?) And it said how much money I gave as opposed to how much money they would've billed me, Perhaps only if they weren't thieves? Anyway, The price would've been $18.90 or so and what was given was $72.50 - This may have included what my girlfriend gave which was her entire wallet, Despite the fact she was wearing something that resembled leopard spots. Then I put the car in drive and began to go forward and the door in front of me raised up to show another car in there, So I asked how to get out and I reversed. I saw a bald caucasian man sitting nearby. I then went out a door on the front of the building on the right instead of the left one I entered, Passed a red Caravan which was parked but i think was on and waved to Larry who owned the thieving place and who was walking near the van - He had dark hair and a short beard and mustache and a blue long-sleeved shirt and no glasses and short hair and perhaps had darker skin than I have so maybe he was Mexican - And I paused but then said "Nice seeing you, Larry! See ya!" And I think he waved before I drove away. (Note - At this point I'm not sure I was entirely in a "car" that wasn't transparent.)

Then I was in something resembling a particular Walmart parking lot and I was on a skateboard, Getting rather good at it compared to how I was (I could turn fairly easily and thought I'd be able to learn, Too) And I saw a few people nearby, One who was an old woman and then the asphalt was grass and I met another guy on a skateboard; He was wearing a hat, I think, And was wearing red and didn't have a beard or mustache or glasses and had short hair too and I started talking about food with him. I talked to him and we may have started talking about our journeys, I mentioned three types of food and then french fries and I think he was salivating then.

______

For some reason this morning while I was AFK from typing this, I was thinking of D. Boon of the Minutemen (A band.) Perhaps he has to do with a dream?

The last dream I wrote down was the last; I was awake in-between some of the dreams I wrote and that's one of them.

The name "Larry" In this DJ recurred thrice, I think; First there's Leisure Suit Larry then there's Larry from The Three Stooges who comes to mind but I don't think I saw, And then there's Larry the Thief.

Another note: I suggest for you DJ writers to write a draft for online-posting down in a Notepad document while saving it at points and then copy it on here. That way, If you also keep a log on your computer you can remove things from the online post if you wish to instead of adding details you wish to keep offline to the offline post.

> I was CJ from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (I think) and I had a ScanGauge II or other meter in the car I drove and I saw that the battery was low so I left the car on to charge the battery, Then the car was out of gas and I got out and talked to someone about it.

> I was outside the house my paternal grandmother lives in and I was trying to be a bit sneaky while cutting the grass around it with a reel mower which is not gas or electric powered. I looked into a window and saw light bulbs on.

> I'm not sure if this is a dream or not but if so, It would've been on subject of my Dad's van getting lower fuel economy around Pittsburgh like it has as of late with poor gas in it.

I had other dreams today but I'm not posting them here.

At this moment I'm not sure which one came first though I think the Zombie one was later.

I think I was the one to be turned into a Robot, At least at first. I was in a transportation device which went up along a track and I managed to deactivate it and make it go down (As opposed to going up to where I would've ended up with robots that wanted me to become a robot) And I got out of the device. I then went off into a place or room similar to the storage room of the house on the first floor East side and a Dog was there and then I or the other person that took my place (who was female) met a blond man with short hair and talked about avoiding capture by the robots.

I don't know why but all of a sudden a junky building which is about six miles away from me comes to mind and I don't think I had anything to do with it in this dream but I don't know? It was a store and I dreamed of it before and it closed as the roof's falling in on it.

Anyway, Now for the Zombie parts. I saw a lot of people in a parking lot and then they caught something which caused them all to start rotting quite much and I think tearing each other up too. Not all of the cars were newer, They reminded me of 70s cars. There was at least one man who was in the parking lot and did not have the virus. At one point I saw a little kid who had the virus in a wagon or hatchback type car (Maybe it was even a tiny minivan) and his mother, I think, Started to tear him up. His head didn't look very well-off before she did either.

And for some reason as I think, A military base is coming to mind. I don't know why.

Thoughts of a friend who I haven't spoken with frequently for almost ten years come to mind. I later went into a home of someone who was not there and I was in the bedroom, A telephone comes to mind and leaving a note as to who I was and why I was there. It wasn't to steal anything and whoever it was, May have come home while I was in there.

Perhaps also I was searching for my friend's house earlier; I do know which town she lives in and which street, But not the exact location and I imagine the street is not directly connected with the main road.

Later, My Father woke me up by calling me and I fell back asleep and dreamed I was driving a car (And I think it was my 80s Caprice Classic) And I hit another car in front of McDonald's and there was a traffic light there which isn't there in waking life. My car was then facing backwards and a police car was at the intersection.

There are some deep (And "Above") Ones here this morning. I do hope you accept them as what they are, For that is what I posted them for.

Earliest dream I recall now:

I went into the kitchen of my house and the gas stove was on quite heavily, Blowing flames out the front and I didn't turn it off but scooted past it so I'd not be burned. The water-boiling kettle may have been on too. I then went into the basement and my Father said something about a support to the building or that it was removed. Part of the floor had fallen through into the basement and there were no stairs to the second floor in the hallway now; There was a way to get into the first-floor hallway from the basement as well as the second floor, Though. I went to the second floor and there was no stairway to the third floor so my workshops were inaccessible along with the heavy tools.

Notes:

The basement seemed bigger than it is in waking life.

The house as a whole was still standing but it desperately needed repaired.

____________________

Second dream:

I do hope this is OK to post here. I was on a **** site, Sitting at my computer with the curtain open and a thought which was "Perhaps I should close the curtain" came up and I was about to M--------e with a sock - I seriously did not realize I was asleep, Things seemed so real - And then I thought "God said none of that!" And I woke up. (This is the turning point.)

Then, I fell back asleep and the third "Dream" Happened. I'm not so convinced it's actually a dream now.

____________________

So, I was in the "Office" room (On the second floor) and my car was there along with my dog. Later, I went into the hallway and my dog was there too, Laying on a box that may have had CDs in it. We went downstairs and my grandmother was in the kitchen - She died in late June 2012, For you readers who weren't aware - And she asked if I missed her and I said yes then she started talking to me about some things and they're not all recalled now. My Father was also in the kitchen but in hindsight he may have looked younger in the dream. My Mother was also there in the dining room at first (Which was not as clean as it could become - It was cluttered.) and Grandmother said something about Mother's van windshield fogging up and also of "Bad Bacteria" and things that look like food which are actually people. For some reason I then saw hot dogs and not sausages. She turned into my mother later and I think talked some more and I saw some deep green bananas on the kitchen counter and one had a "Medicinal" Sticker on it.

My dog was in the kitchen too and at this point I must admit I was somewhat "Lucid" Yet somewhat not "Lucid". It was as if my vision was not fogged up so much and I could see but I didn't go and start "Controlling the world around me".

Anyway, I went outside or was outside and there was a tall fence around the house. I wonder if I put it there? Anyway, I looked out around and I saw green plants and plains in a lot of places around the house and I said, "There's green everywhere!". As I looked around, I noticed that the house of my next-door-neighbor wasn't there and I was rather sad about that and I looked off into the distance but I don't think another neighbor was there either - And he goes to the same local Church that I've attended, I note - Then, I saw the equivalent of the main road that goes through the town I live in. Some people were going around in white clothes and I thought I'd wave to them and did but I don't think anyone saw me.

Then, I saw a little kid - He may have been about four or five - Standing on the fence in a corner and I thought I'd talk to him. I don't think I did but then a lot of other kids started climbing over the fence and onto it from both sides of it and I looked to see if I could recognize anyone that I recalled off the top of my head, But I didn't. Then, I was a bit confused as someone stuck my fingers in her mouth - And somewhere at about this point, A short-haired girl talked to me and I also looked towards the house and saw some people by a door, One who was sitting - And I don't know where I got a hat from but apparently someone took it off me. I then got off the fence and on the ground and someone took off a sandal I was wearing and my foot may have touched the dead leaves on the ground and I woke up.

=======================================

Notes:

- Have you ever woken up and felt as if your vision was cloudy compared to how it was in a dream? I have, And this last dream is similar. With what my Grandmother told me in mind, Possessions also have people's hands tied in with them so how many people do you have "Invited in your room" Now through connections with stuff?

- And years ago I thought that the whole "Heaven and Hell" Thing has something to do with dreams. And, Even in July of last year after my Grandmother had died I'd been having dreams of her and was surprised and relieved that she wasn't dead.

- I changed the title from "My house is a wreck" to "My house was a wreck" on December 14 2013

In the last dream I saw two fellow church attendees who also sometimes attend band practice:

I went on my porch and there were some boxes in the way but I heard them (The people) sitting on the steps and they found a red die and I said Hi to both of them and asked them to please not throw the die in the street. Then the girl said something about a Zeppelin, I think, And about being my girlfriend - I'd not said anything like that to her directly prior to this - And she said something about any past girlfriends I may have had being cleaned up (If I remember that right) and she pushed me over slightly but I regained balance (At this point I was thinking that I didn't have any girlfriends before that, And it's true - I haven't and I was 21 years old at the time of this dream. I didn't tell her that I didn't have a girlfriend or girlfriends though.) And she also said she saw airplanes crashing all around me (And I somehow knew they were tiny ones.) I didn't see any planes crashing, Though.

She's the girl I mentioned in another of my dream journals - The one about a grocery store - And coincidentally today is her birthday. So, Happy Birthday to her and anyone else who shares this day as a birthday.

If I logged this yesterday I may have logged more in.

There was a bit about Barry Andrews of the band Shriekback as if I was just thinking of him. I've dreamed about him before.



There were more fragments and they're not in mind right now but Andy Partridge may be among them.

> I recall another quote from Chicken Run and a place that may resemble a road nearby and perhaps an automobile and perhaps water. There was a quote by character Nick (The rodent) from Chicken Run, "No, Apparently it's a lady thing, Ask yer mum" (On the subject of egg-laying)

> Mike Mozart apparently rented or rents a building in a nearby town in my dream, Maybe he does in waking life too?

> There was more to the bit about the building. I may have gone to a local Goodwill store too and found a net of some sort

Here's a peculiar set of dreams.

> My neighbor took one of his classic cars out and I was in the back seat. Then, He wasn't in the driver's seat and the car was moving so I had to reach to the steering wheel and steer the car. The car hit a truck parked in my neighbor's driveway and I then drove it on the road and later came back into his driveway and steered the car onto the grass and put the car into neutral. Oddly, I think it had a lever to switch the transmission gear when in real life the thing has a push-button transmission. Also, The grass was high in his yard and in real life he cuts it a lot.

> This was transferring from that earlier part to the next part. I was in the garage with a car like my neighbor's of a similar year, But mine wasn't restored and it had rust on the hood or trunk. Then all of a sudden thoughts of Chicken Run came to the dream and the farmers were hungry to eat chicken for dinner and I think there was talk among the chickens that Babs (If I remember the character name right) hadn't laid eggs lately and another character, Edwina was to be taken to have her head chopped off and then be roasted and eaten, I guess, But I didn't see the chicken; I saw a pie crust with a few blueberries in it bigger than my fist and I think I got excited and said something like "I should do this more often" or "I should dream this more often" And I don't think I quoted that exactly.

Note - I was eating blueberries yesterday and I ate some today too.

> I saw lots of seeds sprouting quite tall (IMHO) including an Avocado seed. This dream was nice as I've been working on growing some apple trees, From seed and have had some nice results so far over the last few months.

> I talked with an elderly woman who lives in a nearby house in waking life and I was standing in her house, Right inside the front door. I've never spoken to her that I remember in waking life before, This is not the first time something like this has happened; Another time, I dreamed I was speaking with another woman who lives in my same town and I was in her house too, I think sitting at a table.

> A man had a long number on the back of his hand, Near his knuckles

EDIT/UPDATE NOTE - One or more men were in the house too.

Please take this with a bit slower thought than you normally might, This was a very strange dream to me.

Note: Before I had it, I let my dog go outside sometime between 4 AM and 5 AM and I fell asleep on the swing (With a coat and long pants on, Mostly so I wouldn't get bitten by mosquitoes and it also helped me not catch a cold) and I woke at about 5:40 and went back to bed. Then after the first dream I wrote here, I woke at about 7:14 AM.

#1:

I just have to say, Wow; Where was I?

Near the start of the dream I met some relatives I didn't realize were related to me; There was a man and I think his wife and child who may have been an infant. This is sounding pretty similar to some people who go to a church I attend! After that I met another me in my own room and he didn't look quite like me, I think he wore a coat that looked like the one I wore outside earlier while awake.

Some time after that, Things started getting weirder, I think I went into a deeper dream level so to speak because I normally don't have dreams like this. I may have talked about switching places with this other me for some reason.

Next, I recall going outside and the house was not quite the same as it is in waking life; There were more parts to the building on the back end of it and then I recall explaining to someone that the sun and moon didn't work in the same way where I was from. I also said to someone that I was from another dimension and I saw some people in the side yard including a neighbor I know who attends the same church as I do and also plays a musical instrument as I do, But he wasn't my neighbor and he didn't recognize me.

Later, There was some structure in that side yard and a man was in a small shack-y room with the door cracked open. There was another door behind a man who I was talking to and after I looked away from him and looked back, He had no head but was standing there with a breathing apparatus! And after looking into the red sky (And there were no trees nearby as there are in waking life) I saw some weird things in it like red licorice candy clouds, If I could describe them as such but I don't think they were edible. I had enough at that point and said the Lord's prayer,

"Our father who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom, And the power, And the glory forever.
Amen."

(Note: I did not say the prayer exactly like this. But, I said it with the same meaning. BTW, There's a saying which is "There are no atheists in a foxhole" And I can't say I was as faithful as I may have believed in the Bible in weeks prior to this dream.)

Then, I thought I woke up and I was in the back end of my Dad's caravan with the back end open which was facing the house which is a bit odd given the driveway. I thought I was awake and I went back inside the house with my dog, Talked with my Father (My parent) and some time after that, I woke for real.

At times in that dream I was wondering if I would ever wake up because it was so weird and unlike the waking world.

Later, I went downstairs and slept on the couch until about 9:15 AM. Some of the next dream was as this:

2: I think there was some selection of this next part, As if it was a movie with some people deciding what to do for/with this guy described below or a video game level selection screen. A man drove a big truck in a snowy mountain pass, Parked his truck away from the bridge which was small if I rememebr right, Went up to the bridge that was closed, His truck fell off the mountain and he jumped off the cliff where it fell and found wings in the air quite far away from the mountain and flew around in places including my living room.

If you have not seen something like the first dream I described here, Can you relate? I didn't feel like I was at home, I'm not about to call it a lucid dream as I didn't "Have the powers of dreamland at my control", So to speak, But it felt like I was painfully aware I was not so close to home.

Note: How did "Nightmare" and "Task of the Month" get selected? I don't recall clicking those, I clicked "Non-Lucid" And "Side Notes" And then those weren't selected. I took so long to write this that my login session had expired and I had to log in again, So that might have something to do with it. But, The first dream was unpleasant and I imagine it is a task of the month to not have another dream like this, This month. So I left those tags there and re-added the other ones.

Some of these might be fragments. I saw through the eyes of Colin Moulding who was the bassist and a songwriter for the band XTC. I was walking as him (Though I don't know how he looks now; He looked no older than 40 in the dream and he's nearing 58 as of 2013.) and I was in a city, Perhaps I was walking from the local Goodwill store and across a pedestrian crosswalk which was similar to a nearby town. At some point I was walking with a clown on my left side. We walked into a restaurant or salad bar; The salad bar resembled a store that in waking life was in a nearby town and once held a pizza parlor. The building it was in was also a theater building. We went onto the deck in the back (Which isn't there in waking life) and the clown sat in the chair nearest the door but with his back to the door as I sat in a chair facing him, which means I faced the door too. We had big salad bowls and I started stuffing my face with greens, Then he said "No, Eat smaller bits like this! It's more fun." Or something very similar to that. Not long after that, I woke up.

Notes:

Colin Moulding penned the lyric "Making Plans for Nigel" And sang it.
The clown wasn't thin.
I was thinking of Bozo the clown after I woke, Though the clown in the dream didn't resemble him much.
I don't think the clown had hair.

EDIT: "The Local Goodwill" Meaning the Goodwill store local to another nearby town. The salad bar which was a Pizza Parlor was not in that town.

UPDATE, 16/December/2014: I fixed some grammatical errors.

This is a fragment.

Alex Pruitt (The character) Was being told by the police chief/captain "It's a very serious matter when a person calls the police" Like he was in the movie (Though I don't know if that was the chief or captain in the movie,) Except they were outside a church in my town and afterwards, Alex walked off in the snow and I thought of throwing something through a nearby window as I saw through Alex's eyes for a moment. Then, He was yelling at the police captain "I don't think you care about your job" Then the next part is a bit fuzzy; I think he said something like "It's like you're helping THE BURGLARS!" And the captain looked rather dumbfounded or confused.
