23rd July 2020 Dream: In a house like in Terraria, with a similar viewing angle/style just with more realistic detailing. But the dream itself started out more like reality and I got in this house bit. I was on a cliff ledge or something, there was a sandstone building and it was kind of dark, I believe there was a sort of cliff overhang above. It was daytime but there was no direct sunlight here, just bounced light. I was there to kick some people out? There was a bit of bedlam inside the house when I first got in. Some of my family was there and there was a lot of old and dark stain furniture. Eventually I left the house while it was in the Terraria view mode and things became 3D again and more like BL. Remember some bit about fighting a special UFO boss. (DFLN thread) Travelled really far at high speed while fighting it. Come to think of it, reminds me of some old Sega Megadrive games... I defeated this boss and it crashed in a body of water and the high-speed chase thing was over. Then I wanted to get inside the machine via a hatch and I remember jumping in the water or something but the hatch was like a massive AAA battery port too and I had to disconnect and remove the terminals and parts of the casing? I remember initially thinking about needing air, but then realising or thinking that it didn't matter or something. I seem to remember there was a lot more to this dream, but the detail is all gone.
21st June 2020 Fragment: My phone needed charging and I was at home with H. I went to get a charger for my phone and plugged it in; there was arcing/sparking and a flash. I opened the back of the phone and took the cable off it and saw that the battery had bulged slightly in one place. And the cable specs said it provided 2.9v rather than what it supposedly needed, 5v. Fragment: Some bit around my home town. I'm in the car, with mom and dad. Mom complains about being nearly 11:30 even though the dash says 10:30. Mom was complaining because we had to be there (at the destination?) and my siblings weren't ready or in the car with us yet. Dad took us to some cafe, or restaurant? Near where the pools in my old home town are. Fragment: In the kitchen at our current home. I was going to take codeine, but it had been prescribed for something other than pain, like allergies? Notes: - The part in the car with mom and dad is a typical scenario that might happen when we all still lived together, when I was a kid/teen. - At the time I'm making these notes (10th of August), I am on medication that means that I can't take codeine too; this would probably be a good cue for RCing since I know it would be dangerous to actually take the codeine currently.
Morning of June 18, 2017. Sunday. My wife Zsuzsanna and I are in an unknown bedroom which is seemingly implied to be part of our home. I have some sort of booby trap set up. It is a jury-rigged device with an explosive. It is set up like this to prevent any imposer from having more access to our home. The setting has the essence of some sort of unlikely composite of the lounge room of our present home and my fourth grade portable classroom that was north of the main building, with the classroom layout here mirrored from right to left when inside. When the imposer comes in through the doorway, there will be an explosion. I consider the setup. The imposer will perhaps not be killed; only surprised. I talk to Zsuzsanna about the setup. Our bed is longways (adjacent to the wall) just to the left of the entrance. (I am not even sure if there is an actual door covering the entrance.) The foot of our bed comes up to near the entrance directly on the left side. The booby trap is right at the foot of our bed. I consider that perhaps it is not that great of an idea. I tell Zsuzsanna that the explosion will probably be big and that it might destroy a part of the house or even reach us. I go over to the device and pick up an oversized nine-volt battery. It has two wires at the top, each connected to what would otherwise be snap connectors. The two wires then lead to the explosive pack. However, instead of two polarized snap connectors at the top, there are two smooth electrodes with the same positive polarity implied for each, each of the appearance of an electrode from a singular cylindrical battery. I remove the wire from one, which will probably prevent the pack from exploding. Still, I also remove the second wire. I now know that I have disabled it. Of course, this setup makes no sense. In the first place, the nine-volt battery, other than being over twice the size it should be, would have no polarity in reality due to its invalid design. In the second place, one could not wrap wire around a cylindrical electrode (as it would just slide off). In the third place, there does not seem to be any kind of tripwire for when the imposer comes in, but just a small container of some sort on the foot of the bed, attached with two long wires to the oversized nine-volt battery. Still, as would be expected, disabling my fictional device caused a softer waking, with no hypnopompic jerk. I find it fascinating how the majority of dreams are internally premonitory (in a biological sense) of the waking mechanism, especially related to the seemingly infinite ways a dream renders the lead up to waking symbolism. So what is happening in this particular dream? Well, the bomb is at the foot of the bed. When I disable it, I (or rather my unconscious essence) have done something biologically that prevents the type of hypnopompic jerk that is like my leg spontaneously kicking upwards. The location at the foot of the bed validates this quite obviously, and the different locations relate to the subliminal awareness that my hypnopompic kick might also disturb Zsuzsanna (so thus I am talking about the imposer, as subliminally expecting my emergent consciousness factor rather than the preconscious). It is also to the left of a doorway. A doorway symbolizes a real-time shift in consciousness, often the symbolic state directly between dreaming and waking up, as has been validated in thousands of my dreams since early childhood (and which I have typified when only about ten years of age as the “threshold” type). Zsuzsanna is to my left in my dream as she is in reality in bed as we are sleeping (a repeating orientation in my dreams.) Additionally, the battery and wires represent nerves and disabling it is symbolic of softening the nerve impulses of my real physical body. As with common symbolic (but subliminal) reinduction, this is not clear to me until directly after waking. I have, since very young, always found it far more meaningful and important to understand the true meaning of non-lucid dreams than the pretend game of “interpretation” in the naïve sense. To each his own.
I was in my kitchen, it was evening. I had something in my pocket and took it out, it was a battery bent into a shape of c and encrusted with numerous small gems. I went to a hallway and saw my older sister and my friend, both of them were working abroad (though in different countries). My friend was giving my sister a basket with crackers. Suddenly doors to toilet opened and my pal leaned out. I showed him the battery and he said "Oh, that'll come in handy!" and then went back inside toilet, closing doors behind him.
I wake up at 3:55 a.m and read for 5 minutes, and attempt to WILD. At 4:30 a.m. I give up and go to sleep normally. I get to sleep eventually. After what felt like a day of non-lucidity, I become lucid. I am in my home, and I attempt to set on fire, (TOTM basic ii). I fail. I attempt to find a fire-lighter behind a book. Instead there are just bizarre badges and a heavy battery. I see T and ask what he represents. T says 'geography'. I wake up at 4:47. I go back to sleep, and have confusing dreams about L. Amazing that dream lasted at most 15 minutes!
> 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.

★★★ yeah vague sex dream Annoying guy (i felt throughout the dream that this was Summer Dawne) I remember being outside with some guy who kept wanting to use my computer or something. I wouldn't let him and he was being an ass about it. I went into my house and found him in a computer room. I told him to get off and leave. Then i shoved him out the door. I go to my room with my computer and find that he's there. Now he looks like a punk kid with a leather jacket. We have some discussion where i tell him to leave once again. Lucid At first i was exploring some caverns with some guy. we had flashlights. for some reason we go outside and plan to go back in but the guy doesn't want me to go with him. I think he's hiding something so I sneak into the place. I find some weird cardboard thingies to hid in. the whole cavern is dark. As I move around them they sway from side to side. I wonder if the guy will notice the movement. He walks past so i wait a few seconds to follow him. After I follow him I wind up in some weird room. I hear someone coming so i go and hide in some bathroom and float above the door. A security guy enters and looks at me shocked. I then leave. I walk toward an open space and then find myself in a market. I become lucid randomly. I immediately try to orient the rest of my senses into the dream. I put my one hand in front of me. the middle finger is backwards and realise i am fingering myself.... ok. i pull my hand away and then back. now mi middle finger has two fingers pushed together. and when the flex the tip of the finger is joined but the fingers bend at opposite sides.... weird. Next sense is taste, so I grab a cloth fabric from one of the stands and try to eat it. It tastes terrible... now i have taste. I try to dilate time by putting my hand on the ground and start counting. i make it to 15 and stop (oops i forgot to imagine each number as a unit of time stretching out). I then called for asuka to come to me since i am lucid. While i waited i looked around at the people walking by. There were lots of asians... but no one that i recognised as Asuka. I walked into some store where it looked like a cool video game was being played. just then a brown little yappy dog jumped up and bit my arm. i ignored it for a while and walked into the game. I found myself outside fighting with the dog. Sometimes asuka is a yappy dog so I ask it. " Are you Asuka?" it says yes. it turns into a large dog and knocks me on the ground and then turns into a pirate man. "you're not asuka" i said. He laughed and I noticed he had two metal teeth. "I came here to put a stop to your doings" he said. "I saw what you did with Battery... that's dangerous stuff. You must be stopped." I was thinking Battery? what Is he talking about? i was using a flashlight earlier does he mean the batteries in the flashlight i was using earlier? As I pondered this the dream ended. Llama Dragon I remember coming to a fence in some weird farm. There was a tiny llama behind the fence. I went in there to look at it. and suddenly the Llama was on the opposite side of the fence and now it was big like a dragon. It had white fur. I was shocked and ran a bit. It started coming through the gate. Someone said that I should feed it and it would be friendly. I saw a plate with a fried egg or something on it and then i fed it to the Llama dragon. AA meeting some stupid dream where i get asked to speak at an AA meeting. I recognized and old friend there mark. Anyway i gave out a few sentences, but then i stopped. Everyone started talking about how great my speech was. Annoying guy accuses me of murder I'm in some construction area with the same annoying guy from the other dreams. He kills someone and says that I have to dispose of the body or else he will accuse me of murder. I comply and put the dead guy in a bag. I carry the bag to a large garbage bin and trow it in. I go to some coffee shop and the annoying guy looks like someone i know. He starts whispering in everyone's ear and points at me. I know he is telling them that I am a killer or something. bo Staff I am in my backyard spinning around a bo staff. for some reason i am doing really well and I'm surprised at how well i can move around with it. I see the one kid who wanted to stay at my dream house. Hes using a black bo staff to make high jumps and stuff. he is pretty good at it. I Think asuka was in the background hanging up laundry. Annoying guy gets PWNED I am back in town chasing that one guy from the previous dreams. Some how i shield him in a store. He can't get past the barrier i made. But i walk through it several times to piss him off. "Serves you right for just coming to interfere" I said and I walked away. disappointing camping trip I am with my brother and hid gf and we go on a camping trip. We meet up with James. Spend a night and then leave early in the morning. I complain that we should have spent a couple days instead of one night.... since all we do is work most of the year... we should have a bigger break. They don't listen to me.
