#377 - WILD - 9:29AM (3 of 3) I try to squeeze another hour of sleep late this morning to try to make up for the periods of wakefulness I dealt with through the night. My son wakes up and I hear mild sounds of him taking a bath causing my to have a short period of light sleep. I wake fully with no dream recall but I say focused on my body. For some reason I think it is my mother who is giving my son a bath. I have some visuals of this and then I notice some vibrations. I open my eyes but this time, I am certain I have opened my physical eyes. I close them and try again without making the movement. I am not sure what is what but I can see in the dream now. The transition to move my body is a bit more difficult this time but after a few seconds, I manage to get out. The bedroom door opens as if it is the front door to the house in Texas. I always have a strong connection to this place and though I do not understand it, I just let it be. There is the church on the other side of the yard plus and extra building with gray stucco. I do not have any goal in mind so I wander closer. I think about phasing into the wall to see what I will find but I worry about destabilizing the dream. Around the side, I seemy neighbors ugly truck parked in the grass. It annoys me so I decide to reach into it and see what is in the engine compartment. My hand phases through the grill and I smile at the visuals and the sensation. I reach around inside and feel a tangle of hoses and wires. I grab a handful and pull them out. I can now see the engine and put my hand on an odd looking spark plug. I say something like, "You will cause problems." I hope to affect waking life as a type of curse on the vehicle. I think about taking anger out and slashing the tires for fun but I stop myself right here. This is totally stupid. I think that I should just let this go and do something else. As I turn away, my wife comes in the room waking me up.
