I had a dream about lucid dreams. No kidding! Prologue: I had just come home from the
bar. It was three AM. While I was brushing my teeth i remembered the
e2 node about lucid dreams and tried to levitate the soap dispenser. It didn't happen, as
expected. Then I went to bed.
Sometime in the early morning I started having these dreams. The first one was about an
environmentalist who was threatening to poison the ground at a national park. She had a
collection of chemicals that were technically not banned, and she claimed that since the
government did not ban the hunt of moose, she would put acid on the ground. She squeezed
a yellow tube and yellowy goop landed on the ground. Two small dogs were standing on the
goop, which turned clear and began burning the ground. I told the owner of the dogs to
get them out or they would be sick.
Then the dream switched into something about me and a bunch of friends needing to put up
a webpage on my old high-school's website. We were thinking about hacking in, when
someone suggested that we just ask the comm tech teacher since he was really nice. I went
with some girl to go buy "supplies" (I think this dream was based on the second episode
of The Lone Gunmen). On the way I had a sudden "what the hell" thought and tried to
levitate something in the store. And it levitated! "Oh shit!" I thought. "I'm in a lucid
dream. No wait, this is cool!" I tested out some of my lucid powers when suddenly I woke
up.
But it wasn't a real wakeup, it was into another dream. I "awoke" on the couch in my
living room. It was sunny outside, there were lots of people I didn't know in the
kitchen. "I just had a crazy lucid dream!" I said. "Then don't move. Go back to sleep and
continue it." some lady told me. So I did.
I closed my eyes and saw dark, and the kitchen sounds faded. Then there was a ringing in
my ears, followed by a hissing, then all sorts of random noise that got very loud. An
image formed on my dream-screen, and it was in widescreen. Really! I thought "enough of
this noise" and jumped into the image. It was a "movie". Adam Sandler was in a forest by
a river, holding up some rocks. I was watching without a body from various dramatic
angles. I thought "let's levitate one of his rocks" and sure enough it did. Adam Sandler
fell into the river and I watched him with a smarmy "you're not real. It's all a dream"
attitude. I thought "why not make the river acid?" Adam Sandler got scared and his face
turned white, but it wasn't strong acid. I guess now that I really didn't want to see
adam sandler die. I thought "take me home" and the world shifted around me. I was on the
main floor in my house, but now it was dark and the people were gone. I started walking
to the front of the house and I felt my feet on the floor and heard my footsteps. "What
the hell," I thought "this is a dream. I don't have to walk!" Instantly I became
non-corporeal and I glided where I wanted to. I jumped into the air and did a weightless
flip. What joy! I went around telling my dream-parents "I'm having a lucid dream! This is
so cool!"
Then I woke up for real. (I checked. I can't levitate anything anymore). Upon reflection,
I'm wondering if I was actually in a lucid dream, or dreaming that I was. It's hard to
explain what I mean here. Sometimes I had control, sometimes only partial control. It was
very strange.
