An OBE or...?

[McArthur]

I wasn't sure where to put this so i'll post it here for now.


I am asleep at my grandmothers' house in the room i always stayed in when i was a kid at weekends. Although i know i am asleep my mind is half awake and i know i am lying in bed on my left side with my back near the wall facing outwards to the rest of the room.

I know im asleep and am trying to open my eyes because i have this feeling i need to be up for work and am not sure what time it is or if im late already. I then get the feeling of sleepily getting up out of bed with my eyes still 90% shut (for some reason its really hard to open my eyes) and walk over to a round clock on the far wall to see the time.

It looks like its around the 4:20 o'clock mark but the clock seems strange as it has more hands than a normal clock. I then think about looking on my  computer to get the time instead. Next thing i know im back in bed and still haven't opened my eyes yet. I remember thinking "did i just experience an obe?" and decided to try and get out of bed again to see if something similar would happen.

With a certain amount of sleepy effort i got out of bed again still with the feeling it is hard to open my eyes but can still see the room around me and a sense i'm also still in bed. I then go to the window to open the curtains to try and estimate if its still morning or what time it might be. I open the curtains and its still dark outside like a normal early winters morning. I then look down into the back yard and there is a figure standing there looking up at me. I get the impression it is female and then i wonder if im still naked or not standing there at the window (i sleep naked).

As i think this i feel someone appear at my side and put her arm around my waist and then it flicks to me being back in bed again, alone. I try to wake myself up and open my eyes and eventually wake up in my real bed at home (with my eyes still shut) and im laying on my left side facing the rest of my room. I havent slept in my old room at my grandmothers since she passed away when i was about 10.

I kept my eyes shut for a while because i find it easier to recall more of my "dreams" if i lay in the same position i woke in and keep my eyes closed to the normal waking world while doing so ( i remember the previous dream to this one where i have an argument with some criminal type trying to rip me off and end up shooting him in the knee with a gun). There is actually more to this last main dream that i cant quite remember (i think during the "dream" i did actually see through my real eyes (closed?) into my real room for a fraction of a second and then flicked back into the dream) but those are the basics.


I know i was OBE and flicked back and forth to my sleeping body even though it sounds like a dream of sorts i guess. But the fact i awoke on my left side and.... the clock i saw? I dont have a round clock like that but it was around 4:30 when i woke up!

Hmmm, maybe this should go in the Dreams forum but there seems to be some overlap here.
