Paralysis

29.10.2009Simply Lucid (DILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID By carefully re-relaxing and focusing on becoming lucid again, I would up back in my messy four-houses from the previous dream. I knew I probably did not have much time before I woke up again, so I tried to prolong it my not letting myself get agitated enough to wake up. I slowly walked around the house until I got to the living room. There was a big, old-fasioned, wood-pannelled TV in the corner playing a music channel. <PERSON> was doing a cover of <PERSON> "Paparazzi". I thought it was rather good so I made a mental note to download it when I woke up- if it existed! (It does not ) I turned off the TV when another song came on so it would not make me forget Paparazzi. I went into the kitchen to find more of my old possessions strewn across the floor, and found an old journal from 2005. Even though I knew I was dreaming, I lifted it and put it in my pocket, lest anyone read it. Here I was woken up by noise downstairs. I snapped straight from the dream to sleep paralysis.

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.
