Paralysis

Another night another entry. I come into my dream and I am taking care of a few dogs in some house. A corgi puppy that is chilling out in a big cage sorta like the one my cats live in and a dog from my childhood. I go outside and there are people walking around. I do not know why but every pregnant woman in the city is congregating on the hospitals for some reason. I cannot remember why. For some reason I go outside and somehow run into a small group of people. I cannot remember what/who/where they are going/why but I decide to join up with them. Behind us some pregnant girl seems to be trailing us. But then some guy, who looks kind of like <PERSON>, comes striding down the street and confronts this one woman and pretty much tells her she is not pregnant enough to waste the hospitals time (I think he means: she is not far enough along in her pregnancy) and the woman freaks out. He tells her that "she is more drunk, sober, than with alcohol in her." And she calls him a pretty derogatory sentence about how he is just a big mexican. She goes marching off again obviously upset. I also woke up in the middle of the night from my previous dream and decided to try to WILD. So I lay perfectly still and repeated my mantra to myself: "I will fall asleep and then begin to lucid dream." I do not know how long I did this, awhile I think, and then my entire body started to tingle and my heart started racing. I was too full of energy/nerves and I could not stay like that for too long so I moved and woke myself up. Was that sleep paralysis?

I have been both sick as a dog, and out of town. Dreams have been so crazy. At one point, I was nightmaring lucidly about the Saw movies, which I do not even watch (Saw 1-3, then gave up.),

So I was in this forest. It was all gray and gloomy looking. In a clearing in the forest were a bunch of stone huts. They were tall enough to walk in but you would have had to slouch to fit.
