not sure where this would go...its about a dream and trying to project.

before i fell asleep i tried to listen to that tone you hear when everything is quiet. i started to feel vibrations in my legs, it started to spread but then it went away.

i tried that whole vivid dream thing. i was in some dream, i said "is this a dream?" and then started messing around with something, then it jumped to me coming out of some training, FBI or CIA(something like that). i was suppose to graduate that day but the man that does the graduations was killed the night before. so they didn't do the ceremony, we still tech. graduated, just no ceremony. anyway, me and a friend that graduated with me were both walking thru the parking garage and a speeding truck came flying down the ramp, we both dropped out suits(it was over our shoulders in a suit bag thing) and grabbed out weapons and pointed them at the truck yelling stop! it didn't so we opened fire on it, we must of hit the driver because is spun out of control and slammed into one of the pillars. we walked up to it with our gun's still pointing at the driver, looked in thru the windows and seen her moving around and getting something out of a duffel bag, she was also badly wounded. i yell "BOMB!" and we both ran as fast as we could. then it went off and i remember being thrown thru the air from the blast. then it jumped, i was still some sort of federal agent, but i was now dating(or married too) my partner  i guess we had just gotten off, and we decided to give some one a ride home. for some reason my gf/wife/partner rode in the back, but the door wouldn't open so i helped her in thru, and the guy we were giving a ride too, was in the passenger seat. my car was acting funny, so we stopped at a gas station and they told me to put coffee in it, and i was like. ook? it probably just needs oil, seems like its empty. they told me that cars don't run out of oil. i was like whatever, your buying me a new car. as i sat back and watched them further destroy my car, i sat on the trashcan and said, "could just put everclear in it. it'd make it run great!" they laughed and agreed as they finished putting coffee in my car.

Lots of blocking going on there.  You try to concentrate on the 'hum' that's everywhere and your body responds by getting sensitive in the legs.  The sensations stop.  Then you 'try' vivid dreaming.  I don't think you'll do anything if you're always 'trying' to do it.  You get to REM sleep and you're dreaming that you're dreaming and you ask 'Is this a dream?'  How long do you think dreams actually last?  Probably at the most 4 seconds.  Well, the first dream that you were dreaming that you were dreaming lasted probably a tenth of a second.  The monitor in the brain switched to the other side and the real dream started.  You were in the left side trying to feel and then you asked the right side to respond.
And it told the story of why you are not getting what you're doing.
Your 'trying' to do something on your own and something is blocking you.  You are 'trying' to go down a dead road with no graduation  You 'try' to blast it out of the way and you get a little reprieve from your efforts, but you don't stop it all the way.  You feel that it is out of control and it going to crash into the wall.  Your stuff is in the duffel bag and you're going, but you return for a brief look and it blows up and takes you with it.  And if that didn't convince you, your brain said something else.

Your still 'trying' to do something.  Your partner (wife,g/f) is probably you and you have given up trying to do whatever and you have decided to go home.  The guy you were giving a ride to is probably you too.  Well, all three of you are in the front and your brain is telling you that something is wrong; (your engine is running funny).  Now, there is three of you in the front (the id, the ego, and the superego); two of them say 'drink some coffee.'  One says 'no, I just need some oil.'  They say, 'no, you don't run out of oil.'  One says, 'whatever, you're buying me a new car (getting me a new body).'  And you sit back and watch them further destroy your body.  Since dreams are just dreams and not real life, the brain likes to entertain itself and it said 'Put some everclear in it; that'll get it started.'  Well, you thought that was funny but coffee is what you are going to fill up on to get started.   

I don't know what kind of coffee you like, but I like Folgers or Maxwell House.   

Really, it sounds like you are running on empty.  My suggestion is to start with a good dose of Vitamin B-12 and do some more research on ways to help your body as far as the minerals and stuff to help your thinking processes.  When you go to sleep start thinking 'I will do some lucid dreaming.'
