This dream is from the morning of 12/15/2013. Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid Lucid #173: Luxor I am in a hotel room bedroom talking with Wife. She has the lights off like we are getting ready for bed but there is an errand to take care of. We need an access card for the pool and she is sending me out to get it. When I get to the main room of the suite, rather than our kids I encounter a guy that looks like <PERSON>. I think he is some kind of celebrity, although I am not sure who I really think this is. We talk for a little bit and he tells some kind of funny but off-color joke. He motions toward our room and says, "Sorry, forgot about the wife." I decide that I would better not leave Wife alone with a stranger in our hotel room so I decide not to leave. As I am thinking through this, I become lucid and walk back into the bedroom. I crawl into bed next to Wife, planning on performing a WILD. Wait, no, I am already having a lucid dream. I get out of bed, walk to the end of the room and phase out through the window into the void. I rub my hands together as I fall through the void. The descent slows until I can no longer feel it and I give myself a bit of a pep talk about how "all of this is mine", hoping to be ready for some dream control when I emerge from the void. I am thinking of Task of the Year, and imagine that I will see the Great Pyramid when I emerge. After a bit, the void gives way to a dusky desert scene. And about 70 or so feet away is the base of an Egyptian pyramid! There are a lot of smaller pyramids around the in the area as well, most of them only ten feet high or so. Everything's covered in billboard and neon signs that say things like "Clearance!" and "For Sale!" I make my way toward the main pyramid when I encounter an attractive brunette in her late 20s. "Can we help you?" she asks. Just as she says this, she is joined by an identical twin. The idea of an attempt at sexytime sounds appealing, but no, the Pyramid is right here. Stay focused. Confused about what the Pyramid task is (repair/reanimate the Sphinx and ride her to the top), I respond, "Can you show me the way inside the Pyramid?" Then I add: "By the way, you two are really cute." (I think I was trying to impress them/myself for staying on track or something, I do not know. ) They pose and raise their arms over their head in a "We know!" kind of gesture. One of them (the first one I met) says, "Sure, I will show you." She heads off around the side of the Pyramid and I follow. As we are walking she narrates like a tour guide, gesturing at some wares as we pass by some stalls in a market area. "Here is where they sell <PERSON> and vials." (I am spelling "<PERSON>" the way it sounded to me, but it is a guess since I do not know this word.) "What is <PERSON>?" I ask. "You do not know? This is supposed to be your dream. If I know something that you do not, does that mean...?" Her voice trails off. I have kind of a "whoa" moment. (I looked up "<PERSON>" and could not find anything. The closest match was the kiddush, a Jewish Sabbath ritual. Kiddush - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) I follow her into a high stone chamber where a few other DCs are wandering around. We walk toward a staircase leading down and the dream falls into the void. I cannot rescue it, but before I emerge, I hear an unfamiliar female voice say, "Do not get too attached." The dream ends.
