Screaming or howling

I had so many dreams that they are all jumbled up in my head. I feel like I am forgetting something important about an ancient temple and a quest I had to go on. 03.22.2013A "Wild" Roll (WILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I wake up breifly because my roommate is up doing homework. I roll from my side to my back (my eyes are forced closed because of the sleep mask I am wearing.) I am wondering how much time I have left to sleep, when I realize that I am suddenly caught up in Sleep Paralysis. "This will be the first WILD I have had in ages," I think to myself. I ignore the almost painful vibrations tearing through my head and focus on trying to roll off the side of the bed. After a few moments, I accomplish this. My roommate is staring at me in concern. "Did you just fall out of the bed?" she asks. "Do not worry about that," I say happily, doing a reality check just to be sure. "I have got tons of stuff to do and not much time to do it." Without answering her questions, I run out of the room. I am expecting to see the hallway, so it surprises me when I am suddenly in my <PERSON>'s house. Does not really matter where I am, I decide, just as long as I get... whatever it is I am supposed to do, done. What am I supposed to do again? I notice that it is dark outside, and I figure that I will be able to think more clearly if it is lighter. Before I can even attempt any of this, I wake up again. I lie motionless and try to turn it into a DEILD. I am successful, but I remember absolutely nothing about the following dream, other than it was lighter than the first. 03.22.2013Too Many Fleas (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I am sitting in my old back yard when I notice that my cat (who is supposed to be living with my friend now) is accross the yard. She comes running when I call to her. I am kind of irritated that my friend would just let her wander off like this, when she is supposed to stay inside. I pet her and THOUSANDS of fleas begin leaping around through her fur. I am alarmed and disgusted. "Do not worry, I am going to fix this," I tell her. My mom refuses to let her in the house, but she tells me where I can buy some good flea medicine for "only" $50. I look out the window and see <PERSON> playing with two of my cat's who have been dead for years. I think that my old cats will look after her and she will be safe. 03.22.2013Mighty Yell (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I am in my closet, looking for something specific. In the background, I can hear my mom calling me. "What is it?" I call out. She just calls my name again. This repeats several times, much to my irritation. Why does she insist on yelling to me from another room if she cannot hear my response. I shout "WHAT!?" so loud that I end up screaming it in real life. My roommate is looking at me like I am insane.
