Taking a stroll

[ChopstickFox]

I was bad and I am going into work late today.

Is it bad that it's because I was having a very interesting experience? Well, I had a few interesting dreams, one being that I was in some sort of obstacle course race thing in some strange place. The order of winners were determined by letters, not numbers. We had teams and I guess the only reason I had been shoved in was because their player was missing. I don't think I did very well, but I think I surprised them that I managed what I did. I either got a K or a Q, whatever that means. I was pretty much confused the whole time, but I rolled with it.

After that dream, I was laying in bed for a while and decided to try going oob. I rose into the air and flipped over. It didn't feel very stable so I did the looking at my hands thing. I was pretty translucent and I was starting to blobify or something, lol, but looking at them helped steady their form. My apartment looked similar, but different, though not like the last time. There were pieces of paper beside my bed. To steady myself, I landed on the floor and picked them up. They were invitations of some sort, but I didn't recognize any of the names. It kills me that I can't remember them now. I remember reading them and trying to remember.

I stood up and went to the door. Walking out, I found myself in a new place. There were two young girls there. For a moment I thought they were younger versions of my cousins, but they were different. The older one had brown hair and the younger one had long blonde hair. They acted as if they knew me and I played along. Somewhere I noticed a list. It had the same names on it as the invitations.

Eventually I ended up at a gas station, but the cars were weird. I was with someone else now. Some sort of professor? Or maybe the kids' dad. Or both? I forget what was being talked about. As this experience went on, it was harder to remember. A few times I actually fell back into my body and had to phase back in where I had left off.

I remember thinking about how clear everything looked at the time. There were so many details. I couldn't hold onto them within my memory, but they were there. Very neat.

Nice.

Were the cars really wide like Humvees but not as blocky? Just wondering.

[ChopstickFox]

Kinda, but more rounded, I guess. At first I thought it was my car because it was blue, but it looked too different. Breed a humvee with a beetle and see what happens.

I'm gonna add on from here because I don't see a point in clogging the Dream forums with my dreams.

First off, I remembered an important detail of my previous experience. When I had returned to my body several times throughout, I never awoke technically. Or if I did awaken, it wasn't every time. They were false awakenings. Which I guess was a little weird. I knew that because events happened within them that indicated that I was obviously not awake. Once in a while, this happens to me where I have continuous false awakenings.

I was kind of sick last night and I got stuck in a loop. I was in the game Portal and no matter where I shot the portals I kept falling through them in a never ending pathetic loop. Gah...

My other dream I had forgotten completely, but logging into facebook I suddenly realized a random friend That I haven't seen in years that was in it with me. I haven't even talked to him in months... He's in Israel right now and that's where I was with him, I'm assuming. There was another person there too, but all I remember is that I hadn't seen them before. It kills me that I can't remember more details. Something was happening, though.

Don't mind me just going on and on...

I just remembered! Funny how that is.

We were at a convention. A HUGE one. The building was as big as a city. There were people from all over the world. We all had our own rooms where we stayed with room mates. I remember seeing my friend mentioned above while I was there. I really can't explain how incredibly huge it was... But rounded and with many floors. It had an atrium the size of probably a few football fields.

The strange thing about this dream... which I haven't experienced before... I was myself as a human, but I felt like I was having what is usually referred to as a mental shift. A very strong one where I didn't even believe I was human. I had the attention span of probably a kitten and just wanted to play. I certainly aroused suspicion thinking back on it, but at the time, I really didn't care. I was just having fun without a care in the world. At one point I had wandered into some sort of shop. There were drawings of some sort. Kind of like a card kiosk. They had white foxes on them and I took noticed there were no black foxes like me. (der... I was human) I made some sort of comment and they said that they killed kitsune/foxes. I gave the man a sour look, but shrugged off my moment of bad mood. Weird weird weird.

I know that there was much more to this dream, but it's probably lost in my memory...
