Reviving this thread, because I see no reason to make a new one when it's going to end up being basically the same thing. After being entirely unable to sleep last night, I read a book until about noon and then fell asleep for most of the day and had one of the weirdest dreams I have ever had (the number one weirdest dream I ever had was almost six years ago, but that was an experience I would not feel comfortable sharing here). Anyway, I usually have poor dream recall, but this one really stuck in my memory. After I woke up, I immediately recorded everything I could recall. Here it is. Note: This log may contain foul language and references to illicit substances. That's just the way it is. Also, it may creep you out. I don't know, keep an open mind I guess.
The earliest bit I remember is being in the basement of my house. There were people in my room, but I didn't think this odd at all despite the fact the door should have been locked, nor the fact that it was pitch black and my old bunk beds were still there (this seems to be a recurring theme in my dreams). I left and re-entered my room a number of times after this and I believe I even tried to go to sleep once. At some point while upstairs I saw snow sculptures in the back room of the house, incredibly detailed and true to life, and apparently sculpted by my brother. I stepped carefully around them to return to the basement.
I went downstairs for the last time in the dream and found there were more people in the room next to mine, where we store old crap that we're not using anymore. I discovered they were mostly friends of mine I had met in the last few months. I went into my room and turned on the light (surprisingly it worked, light switches never seem to work in my dreams) and found the people in my room were actually a couple old friends of mine, one in the upper bunk bed and one using my PC. Suddenly I remembered I had some weed in my room and decided I was going to smoke up everybody in the basement and we were going to have good times. I gathered them up and we decided we should go to the school a couple houses away and smoke in the playground. That was when things started getting weird.
I don't recall any of the intervening events, if any took place at all, but I found myself in the playground of the school, late at night and alone. This was when I discovered I was dreaming, and for a short time I tried to take advantage of the lucid dreaming opportunity. After I was sufficiently convinced that the scene I was seeing was in fact a dream, I entered the subtly modified school building and began exploring. I tried to summon objects into my hands, but it didn't work. Soon the setting shifted entirely to a gas station or party store, something like that. The guy working there didn't seem happy that I was around, and somehow I left the same way I came in.
The next thing I remember was walking along a street, still late at night. I saw an oncoming car, and at this point I had decided I was going to let it hit me as a lucid dream experiment, I guess to see if I had superhuman strength or some ****. I ran into the path of the car and the driver tried to avoid me, but I ran back in the way and succeeded in getting myself hit. I then "woke up" feeling convinced that the dream had ended and I ****ed up a perfectly good lucid dream experience. I rolled out of the road after seeing another pair of headlights in the distance and stood up, not thinking it strange at all that I woke up in the same place where I just got hit by the car, and walked toward a building.
The dream had taken on a darker tone. I was in a strange town where everyone was living in fear of some guy. I worked my way up a precarious staircase to find an evidently normal family sitting in a room on the second floor. Suddenly I was attacked by the father, who punched at me with stretchy arms. I vaguely recall this being mentioned by someone earlier on, but I don't remember any more details than that. I started throwing things at him, missing by quite a wide margin, breaking windows and hitting one of his sons in the head. Then they started throwing things back at me, breaking the windows behind me. I started running. I considered jumping through one of the broken windows, but during this part of the dream I was fully convinced that I was in fact awake, despite all the strange things happening around me, and decided against it for my safety.
I ended up outside, now with a wad of cash for some reason. I pocketed it and walked away from the building I just left. It was now daytime. Eventually I encountered the two sons from the building I just left, and I thought I was ****ed. Then I woke up for real.
