    This dream is from the morning of 1/1/2014.

    Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

    Lucid #177: The Rivals

    I'm sitting at a table with Wife looking through some photos when I somehow become lucid. She steps away from the table and leaps onto a nearby bed, posing and smiling seductively. I feel super amorous and move eagerly toward her. But to the side of me, I notice four other guys moving toward her, all of them looking just as eager as me. Wife looks playfully at each of us as if she's choosing.

    I'm so angered by this turn of events that I punch the closest rival in the face. He crumples to the floor, his face immediately becoming a bruised mess. He shrinks into a little troll monster with a pinched, sour expression and then just sits there, not moving. Now the other men have all vanished and I leap triumphantly onto the bed and sexytime commences.

    We get about fifteen seconds of fun before Wife does this strange transformation into a half-sized Wife replica doll. Total mood killer. I pick up the doll and it's light as a feather. I feel sad and guilty, wondering if my attack on the DC caused this. I walk out the door carrying the doll and it transforms into a slightly wilted bouquet of flowers before disappearing entirely.

    Now I'm in some sort of indoor carnival. I walk past a vendor with curly, slightly 80s-looking hair and a mustache. I slow down and note how vivid everything is. I remember that it's been a few weeks since my last lucid and I reflect on what a shock it is to experience the realness of lucid dreaming after some time off.

    I approach a circle of benches and there's Wife, sitting by herself on the right side of one. I approach her calmly, hoping I can keep her DC more stable this time. She looks up at me and we smile at one another as the     dream ends.

      Wow that one was totally nutty. So she turned into a doll huh? Is there something you need to talk about? JK. I think our subConscious like to prank us once in awhile.

      Seriously congrats on breaking at dry spell. I was wondering what happened to you. I'm really glad you had a nice vivid one too!

      LOL. I know, man, seriously. You must be right about the subC pranking us every so often. It's got to be fun saying, "Now let's see him write about this in his Dream Journal."

      Thanks, I appreciate that, man! On top of being incredibly busy with my new business, the whole family was sick over the holidays and it's just stretched on and on (annoyingly) forever. Lots of both adults and kiddies waking up in the middle of the night, so it's been nearly impossible to WBTB. The good news is that my hit rate when I WBTB still seems to be there. But... when I don't WBTB it's been zero!

      Oh man sorry to hear that. I hope it's better now. I'm glad your WBTB success is still on!

      Glad you are back on track.

      Are you like me, too, then Highlander where a WBTB seems to be almost completely required? I've got a handful of non-WBTB lucid dreams but they are so incredibly rare for me. I should tag them in my DJ. It's seriously no more than 3-5 if I had to guess...

      LOL @ Tom Selleck. And thanks, I am as well. Still facing some challenges, but I managed to hit a couple good ones this morning. I was feeling a little rattled about having gone so long without one!

      Congrats on breaking your dry spell (I'm a bit late here)
      I need to get back to WBTB seriously myself...
      This was a funny dream to read, but I'm sure it wasn't fun to go through!

      Yes, I consider WBTB to be a cornerstone with me too.

      Cool ld! I'm glad to learn that you can do whatever it takes to get to your goals. You sound like a very dangerous sorcerer! One has to be very very careful when around!

      You can totally count me in the WBTB addicts group. I used to ld without wbtb but now that I got so used to it (and my latte), it's almost a requirement if I want to ld.

      @dreambh - Thanks! Yeah, I definitely raged there at the beginning and didn't handle myself all that well, but hey, sometimes you just want to win. I'm always a bit amazed/amused by my own lack of impulse control in dreams. I never go into these expecting to slug anyone, but sometimes it just seems to happen, ha ha...

      @Nyx - Thanks, heh heh, I was a little nastier than I usually mean to be, but like I said, no impulse control! Emotions just sweep me right up, even in lucids. It's amazing how easily those currents can carry me away in dreams compared to waking life.

      @NyxCC and Highlander - Thanks, I'm glad not to be the only one!
