So I've decided to do a 30-day challenge of using the SSILD technique. I have experimented with the technique before with somewhat mixed success. So this time I'm going to use nothing but SSILD for the next 30 days and record how many LD's and FA's I get. So here we go:

Day 18

I'm currently heading back to college with my parents. I've discovered two things: (1) My dad speeds while my mom and I sleep, and (2) No matter how many naps I take in the car, I can't have/remember any dreams from those naps. I did manage to try the cycles in the 4-5 hours that I actually was able to sleep in the motel room, although I did not WBTB with it. I did have one kind of scary dream, but no lucids. Since I'm writing this about 18 hours after I woke up, I only remember this one scene:

I was driving around with my dad. We drove by my church, when in the parking lot we saw a couple cop cars surrounding my brother's car. We knew something had to be wrong, so we drove up to the scene. The policeman warned us to stay back, but it was too late. We saw what the commotion was about - a crazed lady (who looked like a mixture of my high school math teacher and Mr. Yang from Psych) came out from behind the car and looked straight at us. I yelled at my dad from the back seat to turn the car around quickly, but it wouldn't start up. She ran around to the side of the car opposite me and ripped the door open. She looked like a maniac, as bloodthirsty as a zombie and as strong as a werewolf (or at least that's what I remembered thinking). She said something to me that I don't remember, but I didn't want to hear it. I tried to kick her out of the open door, but my kicks hardly moved her. My dad finally got the car working and drove off. I continued my kicking, finally making some progress. Instead of falling out, however, she climbed over the top of the car and over to the other door behind me. I turned around and continued to kick with all of my might. I finally kicked her down to the floor, but I continued to kick and stomp in a fury of rage (I apparently have problems...).

So apparently that dream was so scary that when my dad shook my leg to wake me up, I woke up with a jolt and almost kicked him. So yeah, that was weird...

Day 18: LD - 0, FA - 0
TOTAL: LD - 15, FA - 13
