Fun morning! Went to bed at 1am (I was baking bread late last night, bad <PERSON>), and woke up at 5:30am when <PERSON> went to work, then again at 6:45am when it was time to get <PERSON> to school. I went back to sleep at about 8am, making myself think of the TOTMs (The cupid one and the clock one) so I could remember them later if I got lucid. I woke up maybe around 9am, and felt tired enough to try to WILD. I was able to initiate the vibrations again, which was bad ass. I got to be the right level of tired though, because I tried a few times when I was not tired enough and it does not work. I forgot to incubate a new scene, so when I opened my dream eyes I was in my bed. I slowly sat up in my bed and saw a handsome man sitting on the edge of my bed. I said "Who are you?" He said some garbled things but I picked up the word "<PERSON>," which was the middle name of my bf in college. "<PERSON>!!" We hugged, and he wanted to make out (he looked goD!), but I wanted to do the cupid task. I knew it would not count because <PERSON> is not a celebrity or DV member, but I just wanted to see if we could find Cupid. So I grabbed <PERSON>'s hand and we left the bedroom. I tried calling Cupid, expecting to see him, but no Cupid. I told <PERSON> to call him but he would not. I even put my fingers on <PERSON>'s lips and made them move as if he was calling out "Cupid!", while I made the sound. Lol. Then I put my hands together, and imagined that Cupid was forming in my hands, then I threw them up in the air, as if to make Cupid manifest that way. Did not fucking work. I suck at conjuring people I gave up and turned to <PERSON> and we made out for a few seconds before I woke up. I half way rolled over, then rolled back and decided to try to initiate vibrations again. I was able to get them started, but it was like an engine that would not turn over at first. So I tried to focus harder on the back of my eyelids and forehead, saying "focus focus" to myself again. It worked and I opened my dream eyes into an LD as usual. I forgot AGAIN to incubate a new scene, so I was in my bedroom AGAIN lol. That part is so new to me and has to happen super quick, so I need to add the word "incubate!" to my little mini "focus" mantra me thinks. Me, mantra? Haha, who would have thunk? Anyway, I got out of bed and left my bedroom. RIGHT as I opened my bedroom dorr, I was trying to think of another task to try, and I thought "CLOCK." As soon as I walked out the door, I was outside in an alley behind a restaurant in Europe it looked like. And there was a little bench with a big wall clock laying on it! It was just a plain old round one with a white background, just like the ones they had at school when I was young. And yay it had a second hand. I do not remember what time it was, but I remember that the second hand was right on the 12, and it was ticking. It looked perfectly normal and vivid, so I picked it up and held it in front of my face, counting as it went along. It looked just fine, and 5 seconds had gone by when I thought to myself, "I so got this!" (fffuuu). As soon as the second hand ticked 7 times, the numbers started to flip. The 6 and 7 swapped places. Then the second hand would tick too far of a distance, then rewind a bit, and it would land inappropriately in between the tick marks. I watched for a few more seconds then woke up. Haha oh well. My subC: the Troll of Trolls.
