Journal 7/9/2011

Today I was unsuccessful in my attempt at Wake Initiated Lucid Dream due to having music run through my head at the desired time of sleeping. I eliminated the alarm and instead took a normal nights sleep. All dreams were picked up at the last REM cycle (My guess). I could have attempted WILDing when I woke up at 8:15 this morning but I was unprepared for the wake up time and instead continued the REM cycle at low awareness.

First the dream started out as me exploring a bar. A very strange bar. There were elements from leisure suit larry and I felt like I was in an adventure game. I have reason to suspect whoever I was talking with was reading a strategy guide because he told me the exact way to do things. The place was immaculately clean. Even the public restrooms were incredibly clean. The reason I guessed Leisure Suit Larry was because I was warned not to flush the toilets or the entire place will flood.


The next section I was investigating a crime boss. I have no clue why I was investigating him but I spent a lot of time talking to Mafia men. Fortunately they did not see me as a threat and were actually pretty cordial. Then I reported back to "The Agency" and discussed solutions. After that was a bus chase sequence (I miss the bus a lot in dreams but I have been figuring out ways to catch them) which ended this dream

My next dream I was a demoman in Team Fortress 2. I was defending a control point and dealing with what looked to be a melee focused heavy and a suicidal scout. I had sticky bombs and grenades. The scout died several times running straight at me (Didn't even fire) but the heavy I could not hit. He kept dodging back and forth and yet never directly attacked me. The climax of the dream was me standing at a control point with hundreds of stickies (I think they were Scottish resistance type since I could blow some of them up instead of all of them)

This led into a physical test. I think I was a ninja going by the fact that the third hokage was telling me to climb that rock with small amounts of water falling off of it. I made it to the top and held their for a few minutes before I jumped down into a relatively shallow pool of water. I dont remember actually landing but I do remember looking up at various kids taking the test. I watched as they all jumped down from the high height. Then one of them died. I did not see it happen but I saw his lifeless body float on the water. The group was very calm about it (This must happen regularly). I was informed to take the body to a Hospital/Morgue. Then I drove off in a car.

The dream subtly switched when I got in the car now that I think about it. I was in the parking lot of a stadium still trying to find a hospital. I switched between driving and looking at websites of various hospitals without much luck. This section was relatively short and eventually I switched scenes to a hotel.

The first scene of the hotel I was climbing up stairs. This was a very tall hotel so I spent quite some time climbing stairs. When I made it too the top I looked around then climbed down the stairs. Only thing of note was the hotel was LUDICROUSLY tall.

Thats all for dreams today Hopefully I will have more success tomorrow.
