The First Race

August 17th, 2017

 Racing.
Running a world race.
Running atop a mound like a levee.
A native guy breaks the rules, joins the run, but runs below the mound.
He's getting ahead.
The obstacles of wood and furniture begin on the mound.
Either side of the mound begins to turn to marsh.
It is dangerously filled with oysters and sinking mud.
The crowd and contestants urge him not to run there.
He smiles and sprints faster.
I feel a rush to keep up with the risk he is taking to get ahead.
I feel light.
I am floating through the obstacles.
I briefly take flight pushing myself out of the obstacles closer to the guy running in the marsh.
I frantically flap my arms to get back to the mound.
The mound turns into a line of fallen trees and the marsh into the beginning of a jungle.
I am still floating and feel as if I am almost climbing the trees set in line with the mound.
The trees are now set over a river in the thick of a jungle.
There are crowds of native people watching the race along both sides of the river.
I am running on all fours like an animal.
I go to leap over a week part of a tree and it breaks under my weight as I push off.
In the coursing river I try to swing back onto the tree line clinging to a connecting sapling.
I fully dislodge the tree and plunge​ deep into the debris filled river.
I swim to the right side where there are people in the river up to their shoulders.
In the crowd I meet a girl that looks at me smiles.
I smile back before pushing off hard to get back to the tree line.
Pulling myself on to the tree line a girl crouches right in front of me.
She is wearing a short colorful blue and green fabric about her waist and a string thong.
She looks over her shoulder at me.
She is in the race, and her eyes tell me she is competitive.

 I wake up.

An Ominous Instrument

March 23rd, 2021 9:07am I was at a dream version my now passed Grandma's house with my mother and some other family. I think we were helping move some things. It was the end of the day. I was sitting on a couch in the living room with a pretty high vantage point. On the small coffee table next to some flowers, coasters, and knick knacks was what I think was some kind of thermometer. It was an open topped glass cylinder about four inches wide and six or seven inches tall with measurement markings on the outside. It was filled with water a thick hard plastic ball that looked about like a ping pong ball floating in it. The ball was meant to float at different levels in the water to read out different measurements. I was alone in the room looking at it for just a moment when the ball started to slowly sink. It increased in momentum as it sank, which seemed very normal, until it suddenly stopped half way down the cylinder. It seemed unnatural as it didn't sway or swirl in...

Hiatus Update

It's been a little over year since I recorded one of my dreams, let alone posted one.  It's been a busy, eventful, stressful, cold, and occasionally very fun year.  This past winter was exceptionally cold, and this spring and summer have had some low lows, and some very high highs.  There are some more high points yet to come too. I'm hoping I can let myself get back around to regularly recording my dreams.  It's very interesting for me, and sometimes pretty fun too.  Some dreams like the one in my last post are as real to me as the bed I sleep in.  I racked my brain when I woke up trying to think of when I actually visited that place in real life... In short, I'll leave with this. Dreams are weird, so sorry for the year between posts, and thanks for reading ^w^

The Boa at The Zoo

April 1st, 2018 12:54pm I'm visiting some sort of animal exhibit, probably a zoo, with my dad and an ex-girlfriend of his. In one enclosure there were two snakes.  One is clearly a constrictor but somehow has fangs like a venomous snake.  The other one is clearly a cobra of some sort. They are aggressive towards each other and the constrictor with the fangs ends up killing and eating the cobra. There is another family group.  A short-tempered Man a woman and two kids. We are all in the same office like room together with beige colored tile floors. There was a door over the window through a hallway the other end of the hallway is another door or the window blinds let down there's light on the other side so that you can see a silhouette of the person on the other side of that door across the hallway. My dad's ex girlfriend is wearing a strange blue and red boa to wear one and this blue the other end is red. The boa and move on its own.  She seems to be able to...
