Jan 1st 2008

*coughing kept waking me
>early to bed and late to rise 7 hrs spotty sleep


1- Daeva Online

Woke up at some point during the night and simply remember dreaming of chatting very extensively with Daeva. Can't remember what we were talking about.


2- School Bathroom

Was at some sort of pep rally. I grew bored and left to find the bathroom. There were only two stalls and both were in use. I grabbed some paper towels and started making origami animals out of it while waiting for the people to come out of the stalls.


3- The Small Bus

I had to catch my Niece's bus to go to her school for something. I was late, ran through the snow to get to the bus stop but missed it. I continued walking and when the bus came back around the corner it picked me up.
Other adults were packed onto the bus. They were singing kids songs and at one point the bus driver pulled over and made us all take turns reading a book out loud. I felt stupid beyond belief because I couldn't make sense of the jumbled letters in the book.


4- The Mall Ferret

I walked to a very large mall and as I entered it's doors I saw a white ferret trying to get out. It was my ferret, I picked her up, she was spattered with mud.
I took her to the nearest bathroom and put her in the sink and washed her off. A girl next to me offered to help and together we lathered up the little rodent and got her clean again.



5- Wind Wind Go Away

Was a kid at my aunt B's. A bunch of us were in T's play house that rocked in the rabid wind. Across the field an old barn collapsed. They started singing, 'Wind, wind, go away. Come again another day.."
I then had the brilliant idea to fly, ran out into the wind, spread my arms and the wind carried me up into the sky. The other kids were amazed but were afraid to try.
To get back down I imagined I was landing in a pile of bird down and that's what it felt like as I fell back to earth. One of the other kids wanted to fly, I grabbed a big plastic shopping bag and let the wind catch that and it carried me up into the air again. It took me toward power lines though so I let go, went back and tried to get the others to fly with me.


6- Music and Choking Brad Pitt

I was outside a huge plantation type property. There was a piano on the lawn and I fiddled with it, jotting down strands of music. The keys were different colours and also numbered and instead of music notes I wrote down numbers across the page, jotted them down like they were equations. This made sense to me but to no one else.
A guy who looked like Brad Pit came along and accused me and someone else of cheating. He went after the other person first, I ignored him and continued writing music. He then came to me and tried to snatch my music book out from under my nose. I held tight to it and we had a tug of war over the book.
I finally snapped, stood, grabbed a heavy binder and whipped it at his face. He ducked and took off. I grabbed another book and chased him around, clubbing the hell out of him with it. He doubled back, grabbed my music book but fell, sent it skidding across the floor. I retrieved it, stashed it safely away then jumped on the guy, knocked him to the floor and started drilling him in the face with my fist. That didn't seem to do very much so I started choking him, my nails latched immovably into his throat as I continually berated him while he died.

*alarm woke me from this dream and I was still pissed off for a few seconds after waking

Fancy fancy, having the ~'s. Glad to see you decided to put up a new journal for this year and yeah this post is totally to get a subscription/first post here ;)

Why hello there glittery one.
Welcome to my new digs.
If I didn't know any better I'd think you were stalking me.
:biggrin:


Wed Jan 2nd

((So much for more detailed... lost my original notes))

1- Shooting Ferret-roaches

Was taking photos of MJ with some semi famous guy. I directed them down a cobble stoned alley and started firing off pics like no tomorrow.
Under some old cars there were these odd half ferret, half insect looking things that scurried all over. I'd never seen anything like them and thinking they were a new species of creature I started taking photos of the odd animals instead.
MJ and the guy were annoyed by this and left as I followed the little creatures through the city.
((missed out on annoying sibling induced lucidity))


2- Construction with D

At a construction site with D. He was the supervisor and was ordering everyone about.
I was supposed to be shingling but it seemed to me that D was taking extra care to piss me off by pointing out my non constructing skills to everyone else.
I threw in the hammer, literally. I tossed it though the rafters and climbed down. I just sat back and watched everyone else slave for him, totally ignoring D when he'd try order me back to work.


3- My Corvette

I was shopping for an extended period with some family members.
When we were done we all retreated to our vehicles. I made my way to a deep red corvette and loaded my stuff into the trunk. Everyone gathered around and asked when I'd got the car and for the life of me, I couldn't recall purchasing it.
We all went back into the store to shop for some clothes. When I came out into the parking lot I nearly had a heart attack, my pretty car was gone. I ran frantically around the lot searching for it, opening the car doors of other vehicles and asking if their occupants had seen what happened to my car.


4- Aunt B's and the Shrunken Big D

At my aunt's place. I didn't feel I was welcome as people went about their businesses as if I wasn't there.
I tried to call for a ride out of the place but the telephone didn't want to work. I sat dejectedly on the couch as everyone passed me by.
After a while the phone rang. I answered and it immediately switched to an answering machine. It was T's boyfriend saying a bunch of idiotic stuff that made no sense but made me laugh. Only when I started laughing did anyone in the house notice me. They took the telephone.
My cousin Big D showed up. I rushed up and asked her for a ride home. She said sure, after a game of cards. I was amazed that she was so thin. She was only a shadow of her former self and the sight of her was kind of disturbing.

Maybe I am stalking you. ;)

Regardless, I'll be enjoying my new dream corvette...thanks for it ;)

Enjoy that car while dream you is still in driving condition.
:twisted:


Thurs Jan 3rd

> 1:30 - 8am
> Mel.


1- Chatham St Apt.

Was living at one of my old apts except it was much nicer and larger. I had all of the curtains drawn and was being careful to pretend I wasn't home.
Knocking came and through the curtain that draped over the window in my front door I could see the silhouette of an adult and a child. I didn't answer.
As the forms moved away I realized they were my sis MJ and my niece N. I rushed to the door and opened it, ended up walking with them to a park. I pushed N's buggy, it was incredibly small and I had to hunch over considerably as I walked along.
((another sibling induced LD chance missed))


2- The Baby Bed

Was somewhere very public, a mall or something. I went into the bathroom and there was a large mattress inside. Upon it were naked babies and people would walk up and pick a child an leave.
I knew the babies were left there by parents who didn't want them. Random people would then come along and select a baby and simply take it. I found this rather disturbing but knew I couldn't do anything about it.


3- Infested Closet

Again, I clenaed my room. I moved to the closet. I started to clean it, when I picked a box off the middle of the floor there was a pile of white and brown maggots squirming in what looked like a partially liquidized pile of feces.
Disgusted I backed away and then noticed there were several largish brown segmented cocoons all over the place. One split up the middle and some white stuff puffed out of it. I backed out of the closet and told someone in the room with me about the stuff inside there.
I decided I needed to get rid of all the creatures in there so I went back in. Most of the cocoons were broken open and the maggot pile had decreased. I watched as another cocoon split up it's middle. The white stuff puffed out and to my amazement a white and purple kitten appeared. I scooped it up and wondered where the rest of the Cocoon Cats had gone.

The one image that stayed strongly with me


4- The Bubbly Cliff - DILD

Don't recall how I came to this scene but I was very high up on a sloped ledge. Below a very shallow river wound through the landscape. Jagged rocks jutted up on either side of the rivers banks.
Someone was with me and we were discussing the river. DC mentioned that the river looked like the one from Deliverance. This made me laugh. I knew there was no way it was the river from that movie.
The slope was suddenly very narrow and had bubble shaped rocks all over it. We slipped down the ledge and were left dangling at it's very edge, the river hundreds of feet below us.
"This can't be happening." I yelled. "I'm not stupid enough to climb out onto ledges."
I started fighting my way up the slope again, using the bubbly rock as hand grips. The rock was very slippery though and as I swung my leg up to pull myself back to semi saftely I slipped and was left dangling in an even worse position than I had originally been in. Like a backhand I remembered a thread I responded to about heights in DV, that next time I was up someplace stupidly high I should know I was dreaming.

"It's a dream." I yelled to the person dangling beside me. "We can drop off the ledge and we'll be okay."

The other person refused.

"Watch, I'll pull the river up closer to us and we can drop down into it."

I looked down and indeed the drop had lessened by about 3 quarters. It was still a considerable fall to take and I tried to talk DC into dropping with me. It wouldn't. It told me to go first. I decided to just do but as I looked down at the river again it had dropped away to even farther than it had been. This unnerved me and I doubted I could survive the drop even though I knew I was dreaming. I verbally argued with myself then that I could do it but I couldn't bring myself to let go of the ledge and ended up simply waking.

@Infested Closet - Gross, until kittens started coming out of the cocoons. What is it with you and purple kittens?

Two dreams involved kids/babies? Geez..way to waste dreams. ;)

Fri Jan 4th

>2:30am - 8:30 am

*had recalled a bunch of dreams but couldn't find my bedside journal. I laid back down to recall where I'd put it and fell back to sleep. Lost all the dreams and could only recall the ones I had as I overslept

1- Haunted House

Went through a cheesy haunted house with some little kid hanging on my hand. The place felt familiar and I knew what was lurking around every corner.
We came to a room that was pitch black and the kid was scared. I told it not to worry as I lead it through the dark.
The lights suddenly came on and we were standing in a pool of what looked like blood. The kid started screaming and I said, "It's not real. None of this is real." The child calmed and we continued on.
I ended up physically wrestling around with one of the haunted house creatues as it had elbowed me in the back and annoyed me.


2- Spider Fest

I laid on a mattress on the floor of a place I used to live. As I was watching television I felt a burning pain on my arm. I looked and there was a tiny black 4 legged spider biting me. I squashed it and wondered if it had been a black widow.
As I was showing someone else the bite I noticed there were all sorts of spiders all over the carpet. Most were fighting each other but some i knew were just waiting to attack us. I got up and tried to stomp on them but they all were too fast.

And a third dream with a kid in it! You dream waster. :o

The only wasted dreams for me are ones that have me shopping.
I hate shopping.

Sat Jan 5th

> 2am - 7am
>tums before bed


1- Outside Kitchen

Went to visit my cousin P at her place. It was a nice house but her kitchen was on the outside of the place, right out on the sidewalk.
I asked her how she could stand cooking while everyone was walking by. She said she didn't mind, that D was supposed to build her a wall that would block off most of the pedestrians from seeing what she was doing. This sort of irked me and I asked D why the hell he was building walls for her when he has yet to finish my basement off. This began an argument that touched on all sorts of topics.


2- The Bratty Girl's Graduation Party

I think i was hired as a photographer for a girl's graduation reception as I was scoping out a place to take photos of the event. The family had rented a large lavish hall in the upper portion of the mall.
There was some kind of mix up and the mall had booked the family for the next weekend instead of the one they had been preparing for.
Everyone argued for a while and then the parents said they would just have the grad the following weekend.
Their daughter started crying and stomping and throwing a fit, acting more like a two year old than a young adult. I felt embarassed for the parents.


3- The Slow Flood

The landscape all around was very slowly flooding. Me and a few others were in a field that we considered high enough that the water wouldn't reach us. We were wrong.
The muddy water very slowly crept toward us. I found a little dirt hill and put my camera bag onto it then left to survey the area. Everything was misted over and had a dark bluish tint to it. The mist cleared for a moment and I saw a dark blue island of trees in the distance. The scene looked dream like so I sloshed back through the water to fetch my camera.
I got back to the area just in time to see the water cover over my camera bag. I plucked it out of the water and to my surprise it still worked. I took photos of the surreal foggy landscape but soon the sun came out and the mist evaporated away.
I left, the water now up to my knees. There was a metal guard rail and in the distance were snow capped mountain tops. I had to make it to them to survive.


4- Charmed Neighborhood

This had an X-Files type feel to it. Me and a van of people were undercover, moving into a new house in a neighborhood that had a high suicide rate. The place also had an astounding history of people simply going crazy.
We moved our stuff into the house as sunset approached. A friendly neighbor informed us that we should not venture outside after sunset as that was when the weirdos came out. He left quickly.
I took photos of the entire house then stepped outside into the twilight. It did feel very odd out there. Down the street I saw naked people sitting on park benches and others dancing to music I could not hear. I took several photos and someone warned me to get back into the house.
Inside we started a fire. The female with us hopped into the huge living room fire pit and arranged the logs into a teepee type formation. She caught on fire and didn't notice until someone pointed it out. A guy helped put the flames out and asked me to get some water. None of the taps or even the toilet had water. I called the landlord to come turn the water on.
I waited in the stairway for the landlord. He showed up and to my surprise he was a leprechaun, little green suit and hat, the whole works. I snapped a bunch of photos of him.
He muttered a bunch of stuff at me, something along the lines of him taking my luck away if I didn't give him the photos. He then threw some stuff at me and I felt sluggish. It almost felt as if my body were severely drunk but my mind was sharp as ever. I had to fight like mad to maintain control of my body so I wouldn't fall down the stairs.

I notice your sibling, Aunt, and cousin dreams. I have all of those all of the time too. I'm really going to make an effort to get lucid when family shows up. Also--black dogs for me, and purple kittens for you.

You and I should have a contest to see who can get lucid first by the appearance of a family member. It might help motivate us.

OK...ready, set, go! :)

About Charmed Neighborhood

Maybe the dude to put out the fire was one of them weird people dancing to music that didn't exist.

That was quite funny, naked people sitting on benches and people dancing to music you coudn't hear. :lol:

Well, I guess getting a blast of Leprechaun dust is better then a blast of fairy dust..:P

:doh: I was wondering why I had not received an notification's from your DJ for a while...you started a new one ha ha

:shock: you have had loads of dreams lol I will have to catch up on them when I have a few spare minutes

Oh my God, new year, new dream journal :o

I had better start spamming this dream journal with my useless posts :P

Moonbeam:
You're on about the relative thing. I'm reality checking like a mad woman.
So... what does the winner recieve? The most annoying dream relative award?
:D


Jdead:
I don't know where the heck that dream came from. It was odd, I don't think I've ever dreamed of a leprechaun.
*note to self, leprechauns = dreaming*


Daeva:
Hahaha. I'm afraid of what trace substances might be found in fairy dust so you're right, leprechaun dust is much safer... I think. :shock:


mark:
I have a lot of catching up to do to. Your tight black chestless suit in Drunk still makes me snicker. :lol:


NeAvO:
OMG. It's unbanned and back in action. Lots of post whoring for you to catch up on. You spam me up and I'll return the favor.



*NOTE*

-still struggling to get perfectly back on sleep schedule
-stress is still a big factor
-disown relatives and all will be well

Jan 7th

1- Depressing Phototrip

Went somewhere by plane and ended up photographing various very poor children. They were dirty and ragged and I felt so bad for them and what made it worse was that I knew that I could do nothing for them.
Loaded back onto the plane and felt entirely depressed as I fiddled with my camera.


2- Me & T Argument

Me and T were talking, well, I was mostly trying to talk some sense into him. Of course it ended up in an argument where he acted like a two year old throwing a tantrum. At this point my anger lessened and I just felt terribly embarassed for him.


3- Down the Road Parking Lot

Was at my grandmother's place for some sort of huge family reunion thing. I got bored as I don't care to listen or contribute to gossip.
I left, had to walk down the road past Bethany to get to my gram's parking lot.
Got there, it was down a sort of steep hill, at this point I was driving and I pulled down the hill to park but the car splooshed down into water that had flooded into the parking area, from a nearby creek.
I had to get out of the car and push it back up the hill before the slowly rising water could overtake me. As I was struggling, others stood by the road and watched, none offering assistance.
I managed to get my car out of harms way and I pushed it down the road toward my grandmother's place. At some point it turned into a little red toy car that I was kicked dejectedly down the middle of the road.

Jan 8th

1- Pyro Sisters

Me and all my sisters (except MA) were at school together. We roamed around not wanting to go to class. MJ and I started messing with a free standing bank machine in the school. Blank papers and not money would come out of the money slot.
We were annoyed by this and started beating up the machine. It started spitting out papers with words on it, sort of like it was trying to converse with us but I can't remember what the papers said.
Further into the dream my sisters and I were outside. MD and AN were by a dumpster and for some reason they set it on fire. MJ and I took off, not knowing if my other two sisters were caught or what happened with the fire.


2- Bouncing Baby

I only recall trying to put a baby into a buggy and strap it in but it eventually fell out. The baby bounced like a ball, gradually slowing until it stopped.
I picked it up, afraid someone had seen what had happened. No one seemed to notice so I started struggling to put the baby back in the buggy again. I don't know how but it kept escaping my grip and nearly falling out of the buggy.


3- Me & the Wanna-be Nazis

I was in an huge auditorium for some kind of briefing. The aud turned into a large classroom full of people seated at desks. A roll call happened, except calling out names the person at the head of the class called out cities and people from said cities would raise their hands.
When the person called out B-ford all around me these guys put up their hands in that silly little hail to Hitler salute. I snickered and then burst out laughing at them and called them wanna be nazi fags.
They stood up, pushed the desks away and surrounded me, trying to intimidate me. While I knew I was about to get the crap kicked out of me or worse, I refused to show any fear. I continued to smart ass off at them as they closed in. I told them if I got up from this encounter I would hunt each of them down.
Don't recall how this dream ended.

Jan 9th

1- The Sponge Bob 500

A stupid little dream about Spongebob and Mr. Crabs organizing a huge car race.


2- Traitor

D was ranting and raving about something and then turned to me and told me there was a traitor. I asked who, and he told me but I can't remember the person's name. He then turned to me and said, "Fucking Oneida traitors."


3- Cooler Baby

Something like a hurricane or huge tornado had happened, it was rainy and dark and a neighborhood was demolished.
I sat down on a cooler to rest and heard something inside. I got up, opened the cooler and there was a baby inside, all swaddled in cloth. I picked it up and someone near to me said, "That's Anakin, where did you find him"
I pointed at the cooler and handed the baby over but the person backed away and told me the baby was mine now since I'd found it.


4- Barking Puppy/Shadow Man/FA

*very windy out this night and was woken up at some point by the puppy barking at all the odd sounds outside caused by the wind

I don't remember falling back to sleep after being initially awakened by the puppy barking. I woke up (FA... I THINK) though and was horribly tired and miserable feeling, rolled out of bed and stomped to the basement door.
I opened it and yelled, "Shut up, it's just the wind!"
I closed the door and took a step away from the basement then halted. I just realized I'd seen a shadow figure standing on the landing that leads down into the basement. I continued onto bed, crawled in and growled, "Get the FUCK out of my house," feeling sure the shadow figure would know I was speaking to it. I snuggled into bed and just to be sure I added , "Get out and stay out."

I don't remember going back to sleep but I woke up again (FA) and was stuck in sleep paralysis. MY bed was on the opposite side of the room and I struggled to break free of the SP. I wasn't afraid but pissed off that I couldn't move or speak.

Don't recall what happened, whether I broke out or started dreaming again.

That's a load of strange dreams, and that last one still creeps me out just reading it. Though not near as much as it did before. :P

I laughed a bit when you had dropped that baby and was worried if anyone saw, then went back to trying to put it in the thing. Hehe

Jan 10th

>early to bed up at 7:30am
>sick, sore, tired

1- Shoveling at Grandmother's

At Grandmother's abandoned house. I was digging to expand the drive way into a parking lot because I'd purchased her house and was going to run a business out of it.
It then turned into me shoveling loads of snow, digging down into it until I could see the green of the grass beneath. I then started adjusting for the parking lot again but someone came and told me to stop, that I needed Mike's permission before I could continue.

Jan 11th

*bed an hour early up at 7:30


1- From Here to There - DILD

This dream started out with me exploring a new city scape. It was dark and absolutely nothing was familiar about the place.
I ended up standing in line waiting to get into a building. As the line dwindled down to just me and the guy ahead of me, the guy turned and pulled a knife on me.
At first I was afraid and searched around me for something to arm myself with, there was nothing. Something about the guy, something he did or said made me realize I was dreaming.

"You can't do a damn thing to me, we're in a dream fucker." I said, taking on a stance that invited him to try something.

The guy backed off a bit and that reaffirmed to me even more that I was dreaming. At that moment I woke up in bed, fully aware that I was still in a dream.

I could hear snoring from down the hall and it was annoying and I had the feeling it was going to keep me from attaining a decent level of lucidity and control. I floated up from my bed and flipped over in mid air. My room was very dark, and I also noticed that I was having a hard time breathing.

I decided to get outside into the light and the fresh air. I floated to the window and slipped effortlessly through the glass but halfway through my levitation powers gave out and I fell onto the window sill, half hanging in the window, half out.

I could still hear that snoring and I knew it was the reason the dream was unstable. It kept distracting me. I still had trouble breathing and I wondered if something was caught around the real me's throat. I deduced again that if I could get from here to there (meaning from inside to outside) everything would be fine. I managed to will myself through the window and gently floated to the ground.

I stood and realized it was dark outside.

"This isn't right, it's supposed to be light out here."

I put my hand up to my throat as I still was having trouble inhaling. AND I could still hear that distant snoring. I tried to ignore both of those negative things and focus on the lucid tasks but a few seconds later I woke up.


2- School Brats

Was in school again, a kid. I was in a class with students I'd gone to school with but that hadn't been in the same grade as me.
We filed through hallways to a board by the office. There we could rip our report cards off the board and take them home. A guy, Chris, announced he had a perfect report card.
I told him I was going to sit next to him so I could get some of the trickle down good grades... or cheat off him, whichever was easier. He told me to go right ahead.
Back to class our desks were arranged into groups of four, our desks pushed together. I sat at Chris's group and we all got along fine until it was movie time. They moved my desk to the back of the classroom and I didn't mind and tried to watch some biology type movie as the other students messed around, making noise, generally acted like brats.


3- Shoeless & to the Fair

A bunch of us piled into a van, I think it was a makeshift bus.
We were to go to a fair and all packed uncomfortably into the van. I was squashed right up to the window and someone stepped on my foot. I then realized I'd forgotten to put on my boots.
I wanted to get out and find some shoes but no one wanted to unpack from the van again so I had to go to this fair, shoeless.


4- To the Border

(might be connected to the above)

A bunch of us were in a car that was headed to the States. All of my sisters and their kids were in the car too.
Tired of being cramped up in the back with piles of kids I got out of the car at the next gas station and took over the driver's seat.
As everyone loaded back into the car and belted in I pressed my foot down on the break and realized I still had no shoes on.
Regarless, I drove us to the border where we were all made to get out of the car while they searched it. The border patrol then took down everyone's names and then turned to me and said I had to pay for ALL of them to get across the border.
I looked across the bridge and realized we were at the Windsor/Detroit bridge and I tried to remember why we were going to Detroit to begin with. I couldn't remember where the hell we had been headed and why.

Congrats on the lucid but that was a little bit frustrating, I bet. Was there really someone snoring?

Hi Moonbeam.
Thanks.
I thought at first, when I woke up from that dream, that it had been me snoring. But I could still hear it while awake so I think that rules me out.

And about the hard breathing, I found out that my night shirt was caught up under me in an odd way and the neck of it was pulled tight around my throat. I simply adjusted it and went back to sleep.

I forgot to add those in my notes at the bottom of the dream.


Jan 11th

>slept for a couple of hours and snagged a DILD

The Rescue & Escape - DILD

I can't remember how this dream started out but a bunch of us were trapped in a large room. We managed to escape, everyone ran in different directions.
A girl who reminded me of Jessica Alba followed me. As we ran we somehow got divided by a chainlink fence that was topped by barbed wire. We knew that at any moment attack animals would come and rip us to shreds but we didn't know which side of the fence they would appear on.
The girl tried to climb over the fence. She couldn't fit the tips of her boots into the little diamonds in the fencing. I told her to stop and I'd climb over since my feet were smaller and could fit through the diamonds, just barely. I had to kick my feet into the spaces and twist my foot some so it would stretch the space so my foot would fit in snugly.
Got to the top of the fence and had to contend with the barbed wire. The girl moved off a bit and was talking with someone else about how to get me down off the fence. I checked out the barbed wire and noticed it was a new length that started, wrapped around the very tip of the pole. I tried prying the end of the wire off the pole but couldn't.

Hanging there at the top of the fence and getting pissed off about how to pass the barbed wire without too much damage I simply realized I had to be dreaming. To check I willed the wire to be pliable. I tried to pry it from the pole again and effortlessly unwrapped it. Once that was done the entire top half of the fence dropped away.

I dropped to the other side and the three of us ran. We came to an old set of steel stairs and there split up. The other two went up. I raced down the stairs with someone closely on my tail.

At each landing there was a hall that lead away, and each time I came to a landing Cheryl was there. Each time I saw her in a hallway she was a little closer.

My stairs suddenly came to an end. I was trapped.

"No no no." I muttered while wondering if I could phase through the walls. "NO!" I yelled as if it were the word Eureka.

I looked over the edge of railing while simply wanting the stairs to continue on. And they did. They seemed to go on forever now. I continued racing down them.

At one landing there was a huge chamber, very ornate and old looking. I stopped my descent and went into the chamber. Cheryl was there. I faced her and asked, "Why are you following me. What the hell do you want?"

She answered with something along the lines of we were all needed for a grander purpose.

"Being a prisoner isn't a grand purpose." I then simply wished her away and she disappeared.

I continued to roam around the chamber, sure there was a way out. A very tall, thin female with bob cut blond hair and black rimmed glasses strolled into the room. I knew she was there to apprehend me or anyone that she could get her hands on.

I turned and noticed a set of thick double doors. I charged out and found myself outside of a mall. I turned back to look at the building I came from and the door swung shut before I could grab it. The handle outside also disappeared before my eyes.

"Damn it." I yelled. I paced around wondering what to do, how to rescue the others. I evenutally just turned to the doors, waved a hand at them and the one swung wide open. Inside were a group of people who herded out to freedom.

I waved my hand again and the other door opened. The only person left inside as the tall blond woman. She looked around the room as if she didn't know what had happened. I had to get rid of her and decided to see if I could pinch her head off by putting my hand up before me and motioning as if I were squeezing her head. It would stop her in her tracks but her head wouldn't pop.

I waved the doors shut again and the escapees gathered around me. I'd felt a great sense of pride that I'd helped them escape. Out of the crowd came TJ. He said, "Wow, so this is a lucid dream. He pulled out a book, opened it, stared for a couple of seconds then grinned. "There, I've now done my homework by lucid dream. All I have to to is remember it and write it down when I wake up."

Everyone flocked to TJ and greeted him happily, they began thanking him for rescuing them, praising him and patting him on the back.

I stood back for a couple of seconds and thought, WTF, he didn't do anything, he just got here. After a few moments of hating the stupid DC's I resigned to being glad that they had at least escaped. I walked along behind them to make sure nothing would sneak up on them since they didn't seem to be watching their backs.

I woke up a little while later.
