Now I'm really excited to read about that!
Sigh...me too...of course I can't even remember the dreams, either. I know for a fact one of us is going to get lucid from a damn relative one of these days. (My BF said recently, "Family is overrated!" after a trip home and catching the cold. But not if they get us lucid! Which they will! Eventually!)
Weird painful dream. I always notice when people describe pain in their dreams; it doesn't happen that often, but fairly often. Mark seems to feel a lot in his dreams, and you too. I don't that often, but I know I have. I don't think some people ever do. Interesting.
That sounds like a nice dream--serenaded in teh co-ed shower.:lol:
I guess we can safely assume you are not a plumber IRL. :lol:
Cool! Looking forward to it. See, I don't have lucid dreams anymore, or even any dreams--I just read other people's. (what a whiner I am.)
Very cool WILD! Glad to see I made an appearance! :D
An appearance?
You sneaked in and took advantage of a sleeping me.
:paranoid:
:P
Yeah, sounded like you were REALLY trying to fend me off too. :P
I was!
I was lazy from just waking and as persistent as a morning drowsy me could be.

>usual bed time
>>slept in by a couple of hours - result lost some dreams :(
1- Crumbling Skylon
Was just outside of Niagara Falls and trying to focus my camera on the Skylon tower on the horizon in the distance. My auto focus wasn't working and for some stupid reason I couldn't remember how to switch the camera to manual focus.
We got closer and I just started randomly snapping photos, thinking I'd outsmart the camera and that at least one shot would turn out clear. I needed a photo of the Skylon because I intended on going to the top and having dinner in the rotation dining room.
As we neared the tower a thunderous crack boomed through the area. There as a crack right across the middle of the tower's 'stem' and from it a bunch of smaller cracks spread. Chunks of the tower started crumbling away and it was then I noticed the tower seemed to be made of stuff that looked like graham cracker crust.
I snapped photos non stop and was thankful we didn't end up in the tower as planned.
2- Hannibal & Clarice
Hannibal Lector was getting the electric chair and I had been hired as the photographer to take the before and after photos for medical purposes. I was in the actual room but behind bars.
Across the room was the audience box where people had congregated to watch the execution. Lector conversed with various guards stationed in the room, joking and laughing. He was quite charming and I didn't know what he'd done to deserve the chair. I knew he was a murderer but didn't know any specifics.
I noticed Clarice Starling (the Jody Foster version) in the audience to witness the execution. When they put the hood over Lector's head Clarice stood up and yelled something but no one could hear her.
The guys pulled the switch. Nothing happened. They did it again. Still nothing happened. Clarice somehow ended up in the execution room and Lector whispered to her about a series of murder victims, how each held a clue to something or other. He told her to find them, that they would speak the truth. (or something similar)
They removed her, unhooked Lector from the chair and dragged him away. I followed and fired off photos as they did. He managed to break free and knock both guards out. I stopped taking photos and backed slowly away. He came up to me. I still hadn't known what he'd done to deserve the chair but I knew it was horrible. He backed me against the wall, took my camera. He looked at it and then took a photo of me, the flash blinding me somewhat. He then flipped it over and looked at the ensuing photo on the LCD screen and smiled.
He gave me the camera back and then stared at me, his face dead of emotion. "Are you afraid of me?"
I nodded, unable to speak.
"In english please, dear."
I thought for a moment and then answered, "Yes."
"Why?"
"You're a murderer."
He grabbed me by the throat and informed the that he had never killed anyone that didn't deserve it. He asked me if I thought I deserved to die. I can't remember my answer but it must have been good enough because he let me go. He then told me to follow Starling, then he turned and left.
I watched him walk down the hallway and turn the corner. I was sure he'd change his mind and come back to kill me but he didn't. I went in the opposite direction to find Starling. I had to keep repeating 'follow starling' because I was sure I would forget it as soon as something distracted me from what I was doing.

My cousin TH and i were walking down town line and came to Bud's Smoke Shop. We sneaked up and tried to sneak around the building as it's owner was closing up. She caught us and we told her were were just sneaking around because we were bored. She told us to quit it, that she was already paranoid since her shop had been broken into. She proceeded to tell us what had happened.
As she did this a steadily growing helicopter sound drowned the shop owner out. We looked around the building and there saw and orangeish red thin and oddly long helicopter spiraling down around her house across the road. It got closer and I yelled, "Shit, it's going to crash into your home!"
She screamed and tried to run to the house but I held her back. The chopper very lazily smashed into the front of her house, that had morphed into what looked like ruins of a castle.
After it's blades stopped whirring a bunch of FBI looking type guys flooded out of the helicopter. We ran across the street, other people had come to be nosey as well. I took out my camera and took pictures like mad, running around the area to make sure I got good shots from every angle.
One of the suited men from the chopper informed us that they were there to release a chemical into the area that once absorbed into the water and air, would increase the intelligence of all people who lived in the immediate area. I didn't like the sound of that and was going to object but they released the agent before any could tell them to piss off.
Things that looked like enlarged DNA strands floated through the air. Most were either dark or light blue. They were very airy and were carried easily by the wind. Some of the things landed on people and instantly liquified to be absorbed into the peoples' bodies.
I tried to avoid them but one landed on my chest, a light yellow one. I swiped at it to knock it off of me but it instantly soaked into my skin. I was horrified and left the area.
Ended up at a house where the originators of the chemical release were discussing their plans. I was upstairs and could hear everything, they chemical would actually benefit the community for a while but eventually it would render us all brain dead and they would claim it was some sort of reaction to an element in the area that caused the chemical to turn deadly.
I didn't know wether to be angry or scared and didn't have th chance to be either. They headed up to where I was. I ran and hid in a closet as the meeting continued in the room just outside the closet. I peeked through a crack in the door and saw people where were dressed in clothes similar to the characters in the movie 300. They were plotting to take over first the country, the continent and then the world. I also found out then that the chemical was highly addictive, that people would start begging for more of it which would speed up the wipe out process.
Wow, that WILD was cool! I loved the falling down thru the bed part; I like to try that! You almost did the task, too.
Just reminding myself to do an RC when I read the word "cousin". ;)Quote:
My cousin TH
:shock:
That last dream is creepy!
Woo I made an appearance as a blonde slutty prom queen! It's like you actually dreamt the real me! :P
Hey Moonbeam.
Sorry I missed your earlier mega post. Don't know how the heck I didn't see that before.
I don't know why I can't do a reality check in dream when I see a relative. It just never occurs. I think I said something similar to 'family is over rated' to someone I was chatting to just recently too. Great minds and the such.
I don't often recall pain in dreams but inhaling that water was like inhaling fire, I imagine. I never want to feel anything like that again in either realm.
And no, I'm not a plumber. I rarely touch anything that needs to be fixed. Last time I tried to help do anything around here, I used an electric drill to put a screw into drywall. The screw stopped spinning and the entire drill started to spin. The result was the drill was ripped free of my hand. It crashed to the floor & broke. :oops: I now avoid anything that needs fixing.
Your recall will kick up again, mines just starting to pick up again. Yours should come racing back too. It had better, I really enjoy reading about the way you interact with your DCs while lucid.
*smacks self for not reality checking when I saw TH*
NeAvO, Daeva, ready for that cat fight yet?
;)
Jan 21st
> usual bed time
1- Spider Nursery
Was in a dark room that had circular windows all along it's low ceiling. I had a bed and over it were three of those circular windows. In the middle window I noticed a spider silhouetted in the light. I looked closer and saw it was a huge spider similar to one I'd take a pic of this past summer. The only difference was it had very long legs.
I was disgusted but couldn't look away. As I stared, it started giving birth to baby spiders, squeezing them out of her fat abdomen. The babies would skitter away.
I called someone to help me kill them, I knew they were very poisonous and we ran around the room catching and squashing the rapidly growing baby spiders.
2- Primordial Pond
Stumbled upon a series of ponds that all linked back to one larger pond. I peered into the water and there saw tiny creatures, like large protozoa. As I watched they evolved from single celled to multicelled creatures.
I realized I'd found the exact spot where life had began on earth. Whipped out the camera and took photos of these creatures as they rapidly evolved.
It got to the point where the pond was filled with little multi coloured fish. I kept busy trying to document these 'new ancient' species.
From the corner of my eye I saw a thing that looked sort of turtlish. It was flat and broad like a sting ray but it's back was covered with slimy moss. From it's front protruded a head similar to a turtle. It also had legs and feet like a turtle. I rushed over and started firing off photos of it as it gradually changed into what looked like a big Galapagos turtle. This I followed around to find out what it would evolve into next.
3- Bus Ride with JF
Me and JF were on a city bus together, well, not together but heading for the same place. He sat in the seat ahead of me and I leaned up and pestered him, tugging his hair occasionally or flicking his ear with my fingers.
For some reason I kept calling him, Ma Petite Fleur, and everyone on the bus thought that was so adorable.
I think JF got sick of me bugging him because he up and got off of the bus when it pulled up to the stop outside of the jail. I tried to exit the vehicle as well but too many people were loading on. I ended up sitting back in the same seat as the bus pulled away.
A girl I used to go to school with, Cathy, asked to sit with me. I motioned for her to go ahead. She shoved a frumpy bag in between me and her and then rummaged through it, pulling out bouquets of celery. She started munching away on them much to my annoyance.
I got sick of it and told her to stop, swatted the celery out of her hand. She simply picked it up off the floor and continued eating it, celery tendons hanging out from between her teeth.
4- Strolling with LG
My cousin LG (smacks self again) and I were walking through a snow shoveled sidewalk. We came to a place with an odd drawbridge type fence thing. She pulled the lever and crossed the fence/bridge. I opted to climb over and I have no idea why.
Got inside and there were several lit barbecues about the area. We hunched over one and warmed our selves, me not noticing that i'd been cold until I saw the warm fires.
Once we were warm we left. I ran back quite suddenly and started turning off the bbq's and turning off the gas tanks beneath them. I don't know why. As soon as I was done some guys came along and stole them all.
Always ready. ;)
That spider dream is pretty cool. I've been dealing with them a lot lately^_^
You fail :)
QUIT BITCH FIGHTING IN MY DREAM JOURNAL!!!
*grabs you both by the hair and drags you both out*
Ma Petite Fleur? My small...?
Edit: I looked it up. OMG! That is adorable :)
My Little Flower.
:wink:
It is very adorable. I like that a lot. :D
I wonder if I was talking to him in French because his last name is... French?
I'm not sure, but a nickname in french is pretty great. Makes me wish I knew more of French.
creepy dream there especially if you have a phobia or dislike of spiders.
Its strange I had a somewhat similar dream last night, the spider was mechanical and massive and it to issued loads of eggs. strange similarity there :)
:bowdown:
now that is cool! I bet you were so excited to find that! ah vew I envy you that is the most incredible dream I have read in ages :)
ha ha I can just picture that celery scene :lol: thats just hilarious lol :P
Hi mark.
That is a freaky similarity, spiders haunting us at the same time. They don't bother me but its still no fun knowing a room is full of poisonous ones.
And the pond dream was unbelievably great in a geeky sort of way. I knew no one would believe that I'd discovered the place where life originated so I had to document it. It was like I'd discovered the meaning of life or something, that's how great it was.
And quivering celery tendons are a funny but not at all pretty site. :lol:
I've been meaning to get around to your journal but time is not my friend lately and something always happens just before I can settle in and check out the dream journals. i know I'm missing out on loads of good dreams and it drives me crazy wondering what's going through everyone else's sleeping minds. Tonight will probably end up the same. :(
Jan 22nd
> usual but many awakenings, worry related
1- Sin's Grin
I was walking a path, the dream felt fairy tale like. I was headed to somewhere important but first had to climb a steep path up a green hill. At the top it looked barren but I knew something was waiting there, something I had to defeat before moving forward.
Got nearly to the crest of the hill when a cartoonish type head rose up like a sun rising. It was just a head, floating there. It told me that I couldn't go any further until I guessed it's name.
So, I rattled off a bunch of names. Each time i was wrong the head's smile grew wider. The smile eventually outgrew the face and nearly filled the sky ahead of me. IT was a very crooked and demented smile. I imagined that it would soon descend upon me, chew me up and spit me out. As mildly frightening as this giant smile was I refused to run from it and I kept guessing names.
Out of frustration I demanded a hint. In the sky above the smile a jumble of letters appeared. Don't know how but I exluded the letters that I know didn't belong. The first three of the remaining letters spelled S I N. I then didn't even have to glance at the rest of the letters. I knew the name and I yelled out, as if it were the nastiest of curse words, "SIN. GRIN. SINDRED!!"
The giant smile began to shrivel and as it did I added, "I don't know sindred. What is sindred? This must be a dream."
I awoke.
2- Clothes, Kurt and the Trip
I had to shop for a new wardrobe for a trip I was taking. I grabbed a lot but the only article of clothing I remember is a patchy looking dark shirt. I got my clothes and some food and put them into bags or suitcases and then waited for my ride to the hotel.
I don't remember riding there but suddenly being at the hotel, it was a very big, lavish place, almost palatial in appearance. A group of us were separated into pairs and I got stuck with Kurt (former friend from HS). We had to share a room, got to it and I started unpacking. He then started trying to flirt or whatever, which did nothing but annoy me. He then bragged that he'd bed me before the trip was over. I responded with something like, "The only way that'll happen is if I die first." He laughed, quite maniacally. I called him a psycho and then informed him that I would now have to kill him just to be sure he didn't kill me and screw my corspe. That made him stop laughing when he saw that I was quite serious.
I left him to the room and decided to look for something I could poison him with.
3- Skating & Pilates
I was joined hand in hand with a line of girls and we were all doing some sort of really stupid syncronised skating thing. As each moment passed I felt more and more humilated and I couldn't, for the life of me, remember how I'd ended up in that situation.
Luckily, the ice rink turned into a gymnasium and I was doing pilates exercises. (a little less embarassing) After the class I inquired where I could purchase one of those exercise balls since we needed them for the next class. Ended up having a 'deep' discussion about the size of the ball and what colour would be suitable.
4- T's, The Escape, Tornadoes
I walked to my cousin TH's (smacks my head off the computer monitor) and with me took a six pack of some wimpy alcoholic beverages. The plan was I was to show up, leave the 6 pack on the porch as a signal that I was ready to go. Apparently me and TH's boyfriend had planned to escape this place as both of us loathed living in this area.
I did my part and went into the basement, which was like a cave, and waited for J to come down. T and her friends came down first and asked what I was doing there. I said I was just inspecting the snails. I pointed to one (which had mysteriously just appeared). The walls of the caves now looked like a forest of coral and those were covered by all shapes and sizes of odd looking snails. I sat down and poked at one of the creature's eye stalks and T apparently believed me.
J came down into the coral cave basement and stopped and started stammering trying to explain why he had even come down. I laughed at him and called him a punk bitch, finished my drink and threw the bottle in a fire that was now between me and the others.
"We're stuck here forever." I yelled at J. "We'll never be able to cut the ties..."
"I'M NOT TIED!" he yelled and shoved T out of the way and came to my side of the fire. "Come on, lets get the fuck out of here."
He crawled up and out of the cave but I lingered behind because I knew what he'd said crushed T. I tried to apologise but she told me to get the hell out of her house and never return, thinking that I was running away with J because I wanted him. I tried to explain I was only going because I needed to get the hell out of this area but she didn't believe me. I didn't blame her, I wouldn't believe such a story either if I were in her shoes. I turned and began to climb out of the cave basement.
Outside the sky was a muddy red colour and tornadoes were forming all around. I refused to go outside. I knew the tornadoes were there waiting for me.
