Thread: Share your dream from last night in one sentence

The characters of Big Hero 6 had been hired to guard something at this huge science lab...

Unimaginable waking life BS has murdered another (half) night of dreaming. Will try for a nap and see if I can salvage the situation.

edit: well, yay, "nap" (completing the night of sleep, 3hrs) resulted quite decent dreaming. There was more than this but this is what I came away with:

+ outside, I'm holding a handful of fliers and I realize they're covered with NSFW images

+ The water in the canal is rising dangerously, I realize though that if it overflows then it will spill right back down into the river; climbing through stairs with mother and boy who are in ou way, the boy pees on my wife's legs who doesn't notice, the mother offers her phone number for compensation

+ (vivid) twilight: walk by my best friend MR's lot, he's digging a deep, long, very narrow trench, I offer to help, he finally says "yes," gives me a wet long 2x2 to dispose of, "over by the kitchen"

+ (DO) the kids and the parents arrive at the special place, the kids will go without parents, the kids are amazed that it is an amusement park, they'll have a great time.

+ old guy hits me again in the head with a 6-foot double-wide baguette, I get in his face & angry words ensue, he's going to use grenades against me, he can't tell the difference between a deer and a kangaroo

Got to bed early (on time) = great dreaming. You'd think I'd learn.

+ See myself lying on the floor of my childhood home upstairs bathroom, older than current age, I think I should get up incase my parents walk in and get scared, thinking I'm dead

+ in same bathroom, put on the wrong pants (dad's blue jean/slacks with weird zippers down each leg)

+ on business trip, go see folks, hear RL spoken, it's wife, enter house, no one notices me, hockey awards announcer kicks out the winning team from the ceremony for excessive celebration

+ park in darkness, looking for jeans, can't close door legos are in the way, RL speaking family goes by and speak to them telling them they should practice

+ meet JiTh and LiZh for basketball, JT has a red, white, & blue ball just like I used to, then there are two balls and we're tossing them back and forth, need to get back to them but they're probably done playing already

wake @ 6.5-7 hrs, 1 hour daydreaming, get serious about sleep eventually, fall asleep

+ basketball game, S2 is playing, cute attendant returns and asks if we want dessert, I forgot what I wanted to ask, a basket from the baseline, some good "swish" shots, bad dribbling, double dribble is not called, one kid looks way too old ("he's 18")

+ driving in darkness, switching between high and low beams, encounter a large group packing up quickly at the picnic tables, towels on bench

+ (KILD, LD #106) hot girl on porch, take her to my car, kiss her, get lucid, dream ends soon after

edit: 3 more hours-ish of sleep, after writing the above, just because two nights of basically no recall made me really miss my dreaming. But late dreams are very unaware for some reason so lucidity not even close:

+ standing outdoors in a line of people, talking with Asian guy former colleague (AG?) about JL as a manager, she's tough but if she likes you "she gives bonuses and raises"

+ at work someone switched out my nice (small) keyboard for a bad one: I address the entire room and demand to know who took it, you can't leave anything on your desk without risking it being swiped, viewing random computer innards

+ sitting in a room of people watching a show, move my seat, people push past me there's a pointless glass wall [DS] in front of the couch section, the toothbrush on the end of the couch is connected to a line of water that can't be turned off.

I really need to get the new journaling habits firmly established.

1. A retired co-worker has built a shrine to the Virgin Mary, it is covered with votive candle offerings and planted all around with psychoactive plants??, later it is "modernized" by enclosing it in a steel and glass frame.

2. I am riding a bike at night with my wife, I take us down increasingly long and narrow flights of stairs with surprising ease, we look for raised flower beds in an upscale neighborhood, then hide from our youngest child under a "blanket fort".

On a tropical island I was eavesdropping on two Santa Clauses with sunglasses underwater. One of them was asking how the cat died. The other didn´t tell him, but implied that it was licking the anchor hole of a ship and got eaten by a shark.

I was in this dark warehouse, using guns to defend myself from the Five Nights at Freddy's animatronics.

Gambled on a major supplement night and lost. Little sleep, no recall

my night practice, journaling, and recall continues to be a mess.

Some fragments:

-There are large bonfires in my backyard and I and several others run through them, a highschool girlfriends sister attempts and falls face first into the fire, stands up and falls backwards into an underground chamber filled with burning coals and flames (yikes!!!!) she stands up, breaking the earthen roof and climbs out, only mildly harmed.

-I am on a cruise ship and look out over a beautiful scene of tranquil ocean water with a nice sunset.

-I see an ariel view of a once swanky, but now unfashionable resort composed of multiple islands that can be reached by swimming or kayaking between them, the water is crystal clear and blue, I realize I would like to go to this resort!

Caught a huge northern pike and released it in the crystal clear water, then I dove into the water and followed it around, and I was breathing normally (Dream Sign - non lucid). Breathing underwater lol.

Perhaps some galantamine mini-fumes, or REM rebound due to only 1/2 a night of sleep the night before, led to lots of interesting dreaming culminating with a weird-bowling-alley FA (where I described the earlier dreams of the night to the DCs, doh!)

+ crossing the road with yellow/orange math cat that won't straighten out to reveal the formula (r*sin(theta), r*cos(theta)) bites me hard, arrive to class instructor, review my papers

+ sit at desks in class with friend near the back of the room.

+ awesome flying/gliding on the wind up the hill at the L(H.S.), see wife on the ground, (should I give up my altitude?), decide to land, happy to see her

+ weird cooking: seaweed on the inclined grill, strange chicken clasping the grill bars, serving up customers; man comes to me with CD jewel case, I return it to him, but it's empty

+ the hunt for KH (neighborhood school crush), where's her house?, walking through neighborhood observing houses and people, street turns into inside of people's homes, weird woman with bulging artificial eyes creepy, turn back, open bodied dogs (hoes in their sides you can see their organs through the hole)

+ crazy bowling: strange swoopy alley, the big group is leaving, try to get a lane (many people are waiting), watch frames/people bowling, think of strikes & scoring, FA sleeping on astroturf incline "but you don't close until 11pm!", can't read watch, I've slept through past closing time, "let's just sleep here" (see chunk of dirt in the astroturf), I tell son S2 about open bodied dog dreams, I read a list posted on the wall with the thing I dreamed about ("interesting" he says), I'm holding son S2's girlfriend's hand, then I'm lying on my stomach and she is reaching under me and is rubbing my chest

Stopped a tsunami using waterbending and turned it into ice.

Rolled over, grabbed that notebook, pen, and flashlight and was handsomely rewarded with the most recall I have had in 10 days, feeling great!

1. I am at my earliest remembered childhood home with an unknown person, we go to the front of the house and see a wilted tree then watch two elderly white men in shorts and straw hats get arrested for "drugs and soliciting prostitutes." (this dream was over a full notebook page of tiny handwriting)

2. I am at a pub/bar listening to some low class teenager go on and on about beating up the president, I just roll my eyes; I pay the bill with a $20 and $5, then leave; I have to return for my shoes? and am invited to a backroom party by my cousin where I drink delicious lemon-lime flavored beer.(another full page)

3. I am in a limousine with an elderly man who is selling his Victorian mansion, we drive through Philadelphia, which is in a state of complete decay, I look at all the dilapidated buildings and piles of rubble, we stop at a gas station and read a listing for the home that clearly describes the home in question as haunted without directly saying it.

I fell asleep within my dream and became lucid in that dream. I don't get it either.

Climbing a hill in the desert, and a flying, rattle snake comes out of a hole and bites my ass, then I grab it right behind the head and I momentarily thought about ripping it's head off, but I remembered to be passive so I threw it far away from me, then I went and told my dream guide what happened, and he shot one vile of anti-venom into my right shoulder (yes, he just happened to have a anti-venom kit), and then he said, "I'll only give you one of these, because you have to wake up soon and go to work; otherwise, you'll be all sleepy." (Still didn't figure out that I was dreaming )

This was a weird night. Thank goodness, I like some random weirdness, just hanging out with people in normal situations in the dream world is OK from time to time, but not every night, it gets dull. Some very vivid, some really vague, like half dreams/half thoughts.

very early: no recall

early:

+ the ship: the builder is showing off the boot-shaped bullhorn, customer couldn't care less and just wants the ship to go *fast*, transition indoors where something is done with glowing-hot fire-things: a layered glass / cheese / brick "sandwich" for stoking the flames (closeup good look at it)

+ the garden: in a group outdoors with wife, I sprinkle fertilizer on some plants and watch them grow & age, and the flowers brighten before my eyes: a large sunflower-like (two-foot diameter) circular flat flower with yellow coloring in the middle and around the edges

+(f) something about building things out of lego

back to sleep (yay! so much noise from wife/traffic, I still did it!) finally,

late:

+ watching an animal/puppet show on a high, very narrow stage, sitting in front (am I blocking anyone's view?), the staff thankfully ties open the doors behind me

+ (vague) a woman/girl running from home to another place, her boobs are exposed, a guy in a car says something, she covers up, the girl in a place next to a car, I say I've raised her father from the dead, he's in the car, I keep telling her "get in the car! you're dad's in the car!", I'm leaning "through the windshield" and concerned her father/zombie will slash me with a knife, leaving this area.

+ (semi-lucid) summon(?) naked girl, dive right in, hand sensation real, tongue sensation half-real but partially paralyzed, wake myself up by forcing more movement

+ weird semi-epic, very vivid: on a bus with a group: a woman wants to cut an apple, I clean my (bent tip) knife, sink at front, get guy wet, give knife to woman, kids and tank of candy at table, sit on chair girl sits on top of me my wife is looking daggers at me, leave & return to chair she's still there; walking through outdoor area looking up some reclined women's skirts drones are flying my wife is watching up on a hill

+ parking in the parking lot: leave, last space, return, space gone, maneuver my car by hand pushing it around, the space is there, another car trying to take it, my car shrinks to bicycle size, can I park here, what do these lines mean, will the cops come, etc.

+ video game: fly behind and eject into another ship, things flying around trying to shoot them, another ship enters, aliens run down a hallway ramp, I follow, think about grenades, pop out of game wife asks "should you be playing that game?" I say yes, "why?", "because it's interesting," "isn't anything else interesting in life?", "yes, of course."

Waiting for my son to come out of the washroom (in a bar), and this guy comes up to me and puts me in a headlock, so I try to pull his arm off, but I couldn't, so I grab his other arm and begin to pull it backwards behind his head, and he says, "Careful, you're going to hurt me. ", and I replied, " Don't worry, I won't hurt you.", and we both let go, and then I walked into the washroom to find my son, and there was like 10 people in there having a toilet paper and toilet paper seat cover fight (what a mess!), but my son wasn't in there, so I began to worry.

1. I go to and fro from a house to a food truck that is selling various plants, the first trip I have forgotten my wallet, the second trip the proprietor is out to lunch, I return home and have a discussion with my mother-in-law about selling her home.

2. I am attending some Mahamudra meditation teachings, I am surprised to see the students are all hippie types with dreadlocks and yoga clothes, i trade shoes with a guy who is sitting next to me, then my oldest daughter arrives unaccompanied and I walk her back home across a weird multi-leveled mall/space station?

My subconscious sang me happy birthday...the morning of my real life birthday

Early recall: nothing (kind of a disturbing trend, I tried for a long time, too, couldn't get beyond vague impressions)

Late: nice variety of scenes, some interesting & vivid, most short though and not much detail survived (mental journaling all night)

mid:
+ pianist is demonstrating how to play with intensity: his hands move lightning fast and the music is amazing

+ son knocks on the door I let him in there are thugs hanging around our door is pretty pathetic anybody could break through it

later:

+ (best, most vivid of the night, longest) wild ride with mom driving, off the road through the air and up the mountain to the rest stop building & strange bathroom; I'm driving on the freeway trying to get back to that mountain, dodging tons of debris and crashed cars from many accidents

+(f) in a house with a strange dog/lion

+ in JoTy's house, he's out, should I have cereal?, confused, his brother comes out and asks if I touched the A/C, I look at the console on the wall and am pretty sure I didn't, he says he can tell if somebody did

+ eating/smelling fruit, pick cherries(?), go to the faucet, splash tomato pulp on the kid's pants who's standing right there

+ Petro Poroshenko(?) is driving the minibus in my childhood neighborhood, L's (neighbor across) driveway, pack of meat, "who ordered the penicillin?"

+ following a girl around in a dark house, pick her up

First dream: Driving down a road in my home town, early morning, and I see 3 military tents setup along the shore; a couple of dreams later, I'm driving down the same road, and I see all their sleeping gear neatly spread out in the sun to 'dry off', but no sign of the soldiers.

I ran away from Hermione's evil twin with Hermione. Asked for a wand, got a pencil and a stick before finally getting the wand. My mind is genuinely laughing at me.

Doing battle with a person (don't know who) using glowsticks that functioned like tasers and eventually beating him by getting him in the face...

+ aggressive repeated passing & being passed vs. one truck/driver in a convoy, stranded: motorcycle broke down (this is a reliable brand, shouldn't happen), sitting drinking beer on floor alone in restaurant entrance, friends/colleagues arrive (should I sit with them?), colleague gives presentation asks me to join, eating undercooked hamburger ("I've never sent back a pink hamburger" colleague says), it's really nasty I should add mayo/ketchup at least, and should send it back for further cooking

+(f) daughter is upset that mother has misled her about the truth of the angle of faces which protrude so that they can be used for massage tables (WTF!?)

I played GoldenEye 007 on the N64 (one of my all-time favourite video games) with a couple friends, but then all of a sudden the game refused to open the actual game content and just led me to some weird, dull "test levels" with depressive background music (kind of like the Controller Pak Theme in GoldenEye 007's spiritual sequel Perfect Dark).

There was something spooky about that dream - it felt very unsettling when the game suddenly started acting like that and had me stuck on those uncomfortably calm and lifeless test levels, and I started thinking "come on dammit, let me play one of the action-packed missions so that I feel alive in this game again!".
