Tedious bill debate fragment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I seem to be in a bit of a dream recall dry spell. Hmm...at any rate, I had at least one dream last night, and a very dim memory of another, but I recall nothing of it. In the dream I do remember, I've just submitted a bill to the legislature somewhere. In the bill, I believe I was trying to ban the use of the word "glucose" for some reason. I blame my government class.

Okay, from here on out, I'm gonna just assume that all my dreams are non-lucid unless otherwise specified.

Abstract DV debate (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Went to bed too late (yet again), so I had one dream. Since I've been reading Dan Brown's new book, I think this dream was influenced by it. I was on the DV forums, in the off-topic secion, most likely the R/S forum. I was debating the power of the human mind, and whether or not thoughts had mass, which I argued they did. This caught my opponent in the debate (Slash?) completely off-guard. There was some more back-and-forth banter, but the dream ultimately ended in some sort of enlightening revelation. I remember little of it, but the phrase, "Movement is power" seems to be ringing a bell. So yeah, freaky dream...

Chaos and enlightenment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Went to bed much too late last night (again). Did LD mantra, etc. I remember one dream, somewhat faintly. I recall that there was absolute anarchy and chaos, and nothing was making sense. However, there was also a sense of enlightenment and learning, a coming of great knowledge. It was a pretty abstract dream, all in all. I've been reading The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown, which may account for this dream.

Highway laws of Japan (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had two dreams in total last night, no lucids (partly because I went to bed much too late). I did have, however, two very detailed dreams. In the first one, I'm watching a video explaining how the Japanese highway system works. Apparently, there was a large, wide lane every few thousand feet or so designed so that very large vehicles could get around the smaller, slower traffic. When a person apporaches one of these "wide zones," they are to pull over immediately so that anything behind them can pass. The video went on further to explain that a vehicle had to be approved my some ministry of something before it could use the wide zones.

Rediculous, time-stopping nonsense (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This dream was exceptionally strange. Again, I was observing events from the 3rd person point of view. Someone (Maverick?) had slept around with this farmer's daugher in Texas somewhere. When the dude found out, he was pissed. He gathered up all his Texas, redneck, gun-toting buddies for a "shootout" against the accused. Some suggested torturing the guy first by shooting his hands and legs, then slowly working toward the vital organs. Thinking fast, the guy slipped into some sort of conga party. He jumped to the front of the line. The party was being held indoors, and the conga-ers were passing through a doorway. The guy, now apparently having time-stopping capabilities, threw up some sort of time barrier that slowed anyone who passed through it to an incredibly slow speed. It was not slow enough, however. As the accused made his escape, one person from the conga line saw him take the elevator down and out the back exit. By the time anything was done about it, however, the man was already gone.

Messin' around beneath the chemistry lab (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was a particularly fun dream. I was sitting in my high school chemistry lab, waiting for the teacher to return with the lesson plan. He came up empty-handed, and instead sent myself and my sister to retrieve the plans for him. The catch was that the lesson plans were at the end of a secret labyrinth of hidden passageways and trap doors. He told us to lean on the bookcase in the corner of the room, and to my surprise, it swung freely. We were now on the other side of the bookcase, which was a small room containing a door. All in all, it was really more of a puzzle zone than a labyrinth. The door was locked, and we were required to find the key before continuing. This was easily accomplished, and we disappeared through the door. We were greeted by a hallway containing numerous doors, many of them tricks (i.e. brick walls with a handle that may or may not open up). I opened one door and stepped inside, only to fall down this great, metal slide. To either side of me were stairs, which my sister had chosen to take, instead. The stairs she had chosen, however, ultimately ended in a slide. We were both careening down this enormous metal slide, headed for the bottom, which was a hard-wood floor. It looked similar to a theater. Feeling quite safe, we adjusted ourselves to pick up speed. At the end, we slid across the floor and right into the far wall. There was a curtain just to the right, so we pulled a string and the curtain opened to reveal a bubble blower. There was nothing else, no lesson plans or anything, so we scooped up the bubble blower and headed back from whence we came. The dream ended with my sister blowing bubbles.

SAT panic (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

In my dream, I had just taken the SAT's, along with some of my classmates. However, rather than filling in the bubbles for our math, we used notebook paper and a pencil to show our work and record our answers. For whatever reason, the SAT people didn't want to collect our answers immediately. Instead, we were allowed to collaborate and figure the answers out as a group. Some thought it was cheating, and some were just happy to find their answers at all. The dream ended shortly after I figured out what answers went to what section.

Second Lucid!! (MILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I had dreams galore last night! It was my day to sleep in, but it was still very impressive. Among these dreams was my second lucid. I was sitting in the moonlight in some room somewhere, when it suddenly hits me that I'm dreaming. I become very happy, but I am able to contain it much better this time. Instead of immediately waking up, I try spinning, which was very unusual. My entire vision went black, and I kept reminding myself that I was dreaming. While I was spinning, I also saw advertisements. When I stopped spinning, I was still lucid, but I believe I had a birds-eye view of some forest in Italy, with a bear romping around. I felt the dream fade again, so I spun, which led back to the blackness and the ads. This caused a false awakening, which immediately caused a real awakening.

He's a Pirate (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Among my many dreams of the night was one in which I was a pirate on a pirate ship. I was among a portion of the crew that was mutineered agaist my the rest of the crew. We knew that the mutiny was coming, and what the others planned to do to us, so we made preparations. We knew from rope fragments left behind that the other pirates wanted to tie us to the hand railings and dispose of us later. Therefore, while no one was watching, we loosened all the bolts holding the railing down. But then came the mutineers, who tied us up as expected. However, they went so far as to throw towels over our heads so we could not see. Just as they reached me, I woke up.

Santa Claus (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I also had a dream about Santa Claus, during his summer break. He was big and fat, and very jolly. He was telling me how he had to pick up his mother and sister. He also said that he should build a second turbo-sleigh, so that his family could fly themselves around. Meanwhile, a friend of mine was just putting the finishing touches on a book of his. He proudly waltzed into the library, run by Mrs. Claus. She looked the book over and remarked on its expert craftsmanship. She said she would add it to the library.

4.0 Fragment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I also had a fragment in which I received mini-pins for my 4.0 achievements, something I had no prior knowledge about. By the time they were all attatched, my letter was completely covered by pins. I also remember rearranging the pins on my gold letter. I believe there was also something about a watch with my school mascot, and class rings, too. As far as fragments go, it was fairly detailed.

Grandpa (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

My grandfather passed away a few months ago, so I'm not too surprised by this dream. My family and I were going around and naming different plots of land after people past. We finally got to "Grandpa Island." It should be noted that this very plot of land has been visited before in previous dreams, and that I've never seen this area before in reality. The island was a rectangle, with the top third dry and grass-covered, while the rest was reedy and swampy. Apparently, this is where my Grandpa liked to sit and meditate. From there, however, the dream got really strange. All of a sudden, I was living out an autobiography of my Grandpa. I hoisted this enormous tree out of the ground using only brute strength. I then began to bash it repeatedly against a cliff in an effort to break it in half, but the narrator warned against it, so I stopped, for fear of flying shrapnel. There were power lines overhead, so I couldn't lift the tree, but I had to find some way to dispose of it. I was reluctant to throw it over the edge of the cliff and into the sea. So, I sought out other means of disposal. There was a playground, a soccer field, and all kinds of other public places, but none would do. Just as I found a place to dump the tree, I woke up.

Letting out the dogs fragment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Had two dreams last night. The first one was a fragment, in which I let the dogs out to take care of business. Not much detail, overall.

Feminism on DV (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

The second dream of the night wasn't terribly vivid or exciting. I was on the DV forums, commenting on a thread. The thread title was something to the effect of, "Help for females only." I remember being surprised that such a thread even existed, and posted a comment to that effect. I awoke shortly afterwards.

iGoogle weirdness (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Did mantra, etc. Went to bed at reasonable time, remember one very long, vivid dream. I was in one of my college classes, probably one of the humanities courses, when my professor gave us all a few titles to translate using the computers. They were just the titles of foreign books, etc., and I had my laptop with me, as I usually do in college. So, he recommends that I get an iGoogle translator application, which I do. The odd thing about this process, however, was that the iGoogle app page had exploded with all kinds of new stuff. There was even a dream journal app linked to some DV member (Walms?). His DJ had an entry about some sort of weird fruit the size of a small car and covered with spiky hair. The fruit was green, and when ripe, would slip out of the hairy shell and fall to the ground. Included with his normal DJ entry was a picture of the colossal trees that bore these fruits. There was also a segment in which he described the fruit as being pleasantly tangy, but if certain pockets of fluids were squeezed, a hot liquid would seep out. It was very unusual.
After reading Walms's DJ, I translated the text as instructed. Then, however, there was a "scene skip," as I like to call it, where suddenly one of my co-workers is right behind me, and the iGoogle app page is full of porn apps, which made me feel ashamed, guilty, and embarrassed. One thing I've noticed is that in my dreams, people I know have a tendency to walk in on me when my computer is pulling up all kinds of porn. I have no idea why, to be quite honest. At any rate, it's becoming a regular dream sign. My dream ended shortly after this.

House-sitting for the boss lady (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Went to bed at a more reasonable time, also did the mantra bit. Had a very long, very detailed dream. My English teacher, who had apparently become my boss as well, had asked me to watch her house while she went out of town for a week or so. She had apparently heard that I was an excellent house-sitter, which I am, and wanted me to take care of things. At any rate, I go to her house after school so she can give me the run-down on how everthing is going to work. The strangest thing was that my co-workers were there, and we were assisting customers from her kitchen. She had the computers all set up, and we were taking money at the register. A little further in the dream, and I can remember one of my co-workers trying to blame me for something I didn't do, so I adamantly defended myself. Eventually the issue was dropped and I was able to go about my duties. There was one especially vivid moment for me, too. One of my managers handed me a vase that had some water in it, but needed to be refilled. I took it over to the sink and gave it a drink. I remember how cool and wet the vase felt, which was simply extraordinary. Shortly after this, the scene changed to some sort of graveyard/funeral scene, in which I failed to grasp the gist of what was going on. Then my dream ended shortly after this.

Dinner with grandma (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Did mantra, went to bed late. Don't remember much. I remember only one dream. I drive up to my grandmother's house, as I am supposed to meet her for dinner. I walk through the door, but no one is about. At first, I assume the worst, but further inspection leads me to find my grandmother lying asleep on the floor. I'm making clicking sounds, like a bored child will do, which caused her to startle awake, which startled me. The dream ended sometime after that.

Car starter fragment (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I performed the lucid dreaming mantra last night (as always), and, despite going to bed very late, I had two dreams and a fragment. In my fragment, I can remember my mother giving me a remote-controlled car starter for my car, in order to keep it warm in the winter.

Homicidal biology teacher (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

In my second dream, I was working at some sort of crazy place. I had no idea what it was or what we were doing, but I do remember that hired hitmen had been sent to capture and subdue us. I'm gonna say that they were robbers. I managed to escape, but the oddest thing was that my biology teacher remained untouched, and so it was only plausible that she was the ring leader. The dream gets stranger from there, but it was very detailed and lifelike.

Walking down dream journal path (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

The third and final dream of the night was also very vivid and lifelike, although it was a tad shorter. I was staggering about in the dark down a road somewhere in the woods. I believe I was looking for the name of a certain trail or path. I couldn't see well, so I took a flash light out of my pocket and used it to find the path. There was a sign on the outside of the path reading, "The dream journal of Oneironaut." Apparently, this made sense to me, so I descended into the forest. There was a wooden downhill boardwalk, and mosquitos everywhere. Just as I reached what I had been looking for, I woke up.

Vivid grocery store dream (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I went to bed at a much more reasonable time, plus I got to sleep in. Didn't really do the mantras (shame), but I had my first 4-dream night, and each dream I recall in vivid detail. In the first dream, I'm at some sort of local grocery store that has just opened. I'm in a small town, so everything has that sort of small-town charm. The market was big and full of warm earth-tone colors, but the biggest attraction was all the fruit, not to mention the thanksgiving stuff. I remember going over to where the fruit would normally be in a store, only to find frozen turkeys. However, next to the turkeys were all sorts of side dishes, including figgy pudding. I've never had this, but it looked delicious, so I scooped some up. It not only smelled good, but tasted good, as well. There was a giant, purple fig-thing in it, which was crunchy on the outside and very sweet. To anyone who says it is impossible to taste in your dreams, I say Balderdash! At any rate, I continue to walk through the aisles. The remarkable thing about the store was that it carried so many rare and hard-to-get items, such as dried longans. Hefting the bag, I saw the price and the number of pounds, and with a few calculations (that's right, I did math), I figured that the sack was $8.00 or so, so I put it back. When I finally get to the front counter, my dad is shooting the breeze with the manager. It was around this point that my dream ended.

Almost-lucid hard-on dream (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

In my second dream, I'm walking through the halls of school with a hard-on, and I'm not sure why. At any rate, I decide to start pleasing myself, despite being surrounded by people. I'm really not thinking clearly, apparently. So, I get to the doors of the school, when I hear jeering and snickering, and realization hits me like an oncoming truck. I'm awash in embarassment. But then it dawns on me that no one will remember any of this because it is a dream. The dream continued on for a bit, but I never really became lucid. So close...

The great race (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This next dream is a bit shorter than the others, but still very vivid. I'm on a cross-country race with my mother against other family teams. We each have a car (ours is a van, the others have pickup trucks), and we're racing down the interstate. I remember that we had to stop and go get gas, which caused us to lose time. However, we soon caught up and had to make a turn. Instead of making the turn, however, we floored it straight on, into a fishing camp, which led right to my next dream.

The camping episode (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

The final dream of the night was very vivid. I was walking around this campsite, which was also a fishing hole, when something caught my attention. My friend was hanging upside down from a tree, caught up in his fishing line. He had a broken arm wrapped in a pink cast for reasons unknown. Technically, I remember being in the site before, and noticing him in the tree, but I never really bothered to do anything. But at any rate, I scaled the tree and untied him. With superhuman reflexes, he reached out and put me in a choke hold with his cast, saying something like, "Yeah, why didn't you untie me before?" He let me go, and we climbed down (teleported, perhaps?) onto the ground. My mother and scout master were all too eager to make fun of me/lecture me. The dream ended sometime after. The strangest thing about this dream was that I'd been there before. This was not the first episode with the exact same fishing shack. There have been numerous dreams all including the fishing shack. Granted, each dream is different in some huge way, but the shed stays there. Also, I'm not sure I've ever seen the shed in real life.

iTunes dream (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I did my mantra, and went to bed a bit late. However, I still recall one vivid, long dream. I'm working at the computer, yet again, but my sister is there, as well. We're going through old video game stuff, and she begins to raid my laptop for whatever reason. I quickly snatch it away and work it for her. Eventually, I get to the DV forums, with more music sharing. I start off sharing WMA files, but I soon change to MP3s. Then I woke up.

More computer fragments (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Did the lucid dreaming mantra, with mixed results. I woke up and remembered my dream clearly, but I didn't write it down right away; consequently, I can only guess what my fragment refers to. I believe I was on my computer (again), which is becoming a real dream sign to me, and I believe I was in the process of sharing files. Again. This is starting to get old...

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I did the lucid dreaming mantra briefly last night, but I went to bed at a much more reasonable time. I remember two dreams. In the first dream, my boss has decided that I'll be washing cars once in a while, and that I should learn how to do it. He sends me out to go learn how to use the pressure washer. It looks kind of like a small, chrome cannon. The dream ended sometime after that.

The forums (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

In the second dream, which I don't remember nearly as clearly as I did a few minutes ago, I'm pretty sure I'm on the DV forums, talking about how far away the earth is from the sun.
