Unseen Wombat's Journal

[Burned up]

... i like vault...

also, "USians"? are you not wanting to type out the extra 3 letters to spell "americans"?
i don't get it... USians just sound.. weird...

A Canadian once corrected me...

... every time i've had to heat meatloaf i've smothered it in ketchup, eaten quickly, then drank alot of something to get the taste out of my mouth...

me no likey meatloaf.. (i used to be into the singer though.. way back when)

IIRC meatloaf (the singer) was eaten in the Rocky Horror Show.

MB - not really my kinda food.  Actually they look like nut roasts which I guess are the veggie versions of the same thing.

Wombat - yes the singer is great.  I loved all that Bat out of Hell stuff (and have the 12" single in red vinyl somewhere) but he's never managed to equal that.  I've heard he's disappointing live, though, with backing singers filling in bits he misses out.

You think I eat that stuff? 

[unseen wombat]

I liked bat out of hell 1 and 2, IDK if he's done anything since. I never saw him live, but he once sang the national anthem at an all-star game and did better than anyone since.

A Canadian once corrected me...

Oh brother. He's probably one of the same people that insist on saying handi-capable instead of handicapped. :p

Took the galantamine and 2 cholines today. I got one disappointing lucid. But I did fly.

Strange sailboats and lazy river

I remember I was on vacation in this seaside town, and there were a bunch of sailboats that were strangely shaped. They couldn't possibly float or sail, and then I saw them in the water. They were all smashed up and floating down a river in pieces.

Then the dream changed somehow, and I was at this indoor waterpark with my wife. We were riding on the lazy river, and we had gone around once. We were got off here, and thought about cutting back in line to get back on. But we asked a lifeguard how long the ride took, and he said an hour. IDK why, but I guess we decided to go to another entrance where there was no lifeguard to get back on. We ended up at this elevated wooden walkway that looked like it needed repaired, and it was deserted. It had once been an entrance though to the lazy river. At the end of the walkway was a closed metal door. I looked through the space beneath it, and saw that there was just the framework of what once had been an outdoor deck. There was no lazy river. So we turned around and went back.

Then the dream shifted again, and I was playing some online game. I was fighting against this other guy, and he had an ouroboros avatar (a snake biting its own tail). I stepped on it, and with the edge of my shoe, pinched its head off. I knew the guy was coming to fight with me himself, but before he got there, I crushed the head and the body both beneath my foot. It was gross. He came into the room just after I did that and he was mad.

I'm the joker DILD

This started off that I was playing this game where you had to make this plant grow and reproduce by modifying elements of its environment, like controlling the amount of nitrogen in the soil or pollen in the air and stuff. I played this for a while, then I found myself in this high rise building on one of the upper floors. There was this chute filled with concrete and I was standing right beside it. I was the Joker, from the newest Batman movie. (I'm not even that crazy about Batman). There was a rail behind me and a bunch of girls in their pajamas.

I was working with this woman who was upstream of the concrete chute, and I suddenly picked up part of it and threw it backwards over my head to splash all the girls in their pajamas. They were like, "why did you do that?" and the woman came over and said it was because they were activists! or that they were protesters or solicitors. IDR. They said no we're not, and she said, "Oh yeah, I see you're all wearing pajamas, what kind are they?" One of the girls said "Armstrong," and the woman was like "Aha! You're solicitors for Armstrong pajamas!"

Then I left or something, and was getting in an elevator when I suddenly became lucid for no reason. I was going down with someone else, IDK who, and I thought about finding Sean999 or Wolvendeerlike we had discussed in the WBTB chat this morning and try to pass a message to them. (I don't really believe in dream sharing but WTH). Then I thought, "Well, you guys are gonna have to wait, because I have to find Jessica Alba first! (lol) (I did think of a message, but didn't find anyone. Maybe one of you were able to read my mind).

We got to the bottom of the elevator and were about to get out, but the security desk was right in front of us, and they started shooting! I forgot that I could just lucidly smash them, so I ducked and ran out and took cover in front of the desk so they wouldn't have a good angle to shoot me at. Me and the other guy sat there for a while, then I made a break for it. I ran out the front door and took off flying. It was fairly good, but not too great. I was in some kind of future sci-fi city. The buildings looked futuristic anyway. I meant to go forwards, but my perspective was funny, and I eventually determined that I must be laying on my back flying backwards.

Then I had a false awakening, and thought about all that had happened. I knew I should get my notebook and write it down, so I started to. It was all very realistic. Then I woke up for real.

Really good recall. I even woke up after the first or second dream of the night at about 2:00.

Rollerblading, virtual work and attacking pigs

This was pretty crazy. I was first rollerblading down some street, and there was a kid rollerblading behind me. A car passed us both, and then he passed me. He had a camera, and there were a lot of people standing beside the road. He took a picture of this one girl, and she got mad about that. She somehow grabbed his camera, then threw it at him.

Then IDK how it transitioned, but I was trying to design a cantilevered beam with RAM Advanse, (Structural analysis software that I hope we'll buy soon at work, I need it), using virtual work. The beam had a uniform load on part of it, and a concentrated load at another part. I was trying to put on a unit load, but the program wasn't letting me somehow. Then someone told me that I had to put it one foot from the end of the beam. Then somehow, I found out that my wife had already went ahead and designed the beam. (She's not a structural engineer). I didn't think anything of it though, but I was disappointed that I had been working on it for nothing.

Then I somehow went into a basement of a school. I don't think it was The School. I had a really wide slim jim beef stick that I was eating, and there were a bunch of pigs down there. I watched as this other guy had been eating something and the pigs attacked him to try to get it. He threw it to them and they left him alone. I ran into the bathroom, because I didn't want them to get my slim jim, but there were pigs in the bathroom too! They saw me and my food and started jumping on me trying to get it. One of them even bit my hand and it hurt! I threw what was left of the slim jim on the floor, but it landed behind one pig and the other pigs didn't see it. They were still looking at me like they were gonna pounce, and I held up my hands and spread my fingers to show them I didn't have it anymore. This sort of satisfied them, but they looked confused, and when I put my hands down, they started to come at me again, so I put my hands back up so they would see I didn't have it, and I backed out of the bathroom.

The pigs that had been outside had now all transformed into indian people. (IDK what this means. I'm not particularly racist against indians. I actually kinda like most of them).

That's all I remember.

Finding coins at the food court/Driving through Texas

This was pretty neat. I was at the mall--I don't know for sure that it was The Mall, but it might have been--and I was in the food court with this girl who I used to know from skating, whose name I can't remember. We were about to go into Applebees to eat, but we were first roaming around the tables in the food court. There were these large tree wells there and there were vines and stuff growing around the bases of the trees. I looked in one, and there were a lot of coins in there! I reached in and started picking them up. (This is a big dreamsign for me that I missed).

There were mostly quarters, but a lot of dimes too. The girl came over and helped me. She had been in some store, and had gotten a box of red and white birthday cake candles. We grabbed hundreds of coins, then we went to this one tree well, and there were some kids standing around it. We just kept reaching in and taking coins. One of the kids said, "We tried to do that but the store employees chased us away." I looked at him and he had a skateboard and looked like a punk, so I said, "Yeah, well they see me and I'm a bit older than you and I have this shirt on." (It was my blue dress shirt, so I meant that it made me look like I had a good job). I guess the kid agreed, but then they started reaching in and taking coins too. I didn't mind though, because we had already gathered a real lot.

I pulled one out of the dirt that looked like a silver dollar at first, then when I got it, it was a really huge dime. I had a whole lot of coins in my hand, and I said to the girl, "I guess this will cover our bill at Applebees!" She was stuffing all the birthday candles into her mouth though and eating them! She was crunching on them, and suddenly she was like, OMG, then was running around frantically looking for something to drink. I guess the candles were spicy. I was like, crap, now we're missing our chance to go to Applebee's. She ran into a store to get some water, and I went into some other store. IDR.

Then IDK how it transitioned, but I guess I had left the mall, and was now in my car. I was driving out of Texas, on my way somewhere else, I guess. I had just started driving and hadn't gone far, but I looked at my triptik, and saw that I was actually farther along than I thought. I looked around for a mile marker to verify this, but I didn't see any. As I kept driving, a mile marker came up, but it only said, "Mile." I passed a bunch of buildings, I guess I was going through a small town, but I couldn't see any addresses on them. I thought that it wouldn't really matter if I did anyway, since the addresses weren't marked on the map. I saw a police station on my right, but it didn't have an address either. I only remember it said "Texas" something.

And today my recall was horrible.

Crazed Ferret fragment

I was looking at this newsletter that I got in the mail. It was from either this forum or the Soul Calibur one. There were several articles and one was titled, "Will the real Crazed Ferret please _____" IDR. (Crazed Ferret is my name at the Soul Calibur forum). I was going to go into the newsletter and somehow write a post saying, "LOL Here I am," but when I looked for the heading again, it was gone. Instead, there was something written in pen saying, "He's been ready for a long time now." IDK what they meant.

Otherwise, I had no trouble reading the other article titles, but IDR what they were.

[Mark]

ahh man shame you never found jessica in that dream lol!!

he he you choose cool forum names! crazed ferret lol!

[Burned up]

Maybe you really like pigs too?

[unseen wombat]

Yeah, I wonder if I'll ever achieve my Jessica Alba goal. :( Every time I try somehow I either fail or get sidetracked.

I guess pigs are okay. I didn't like those ones though because they were biting me and trying to steal my food.

10-8-08

Terrible recall again. I wonder if I'm getting sick. That's usually the first thing to happen. I hope I have better luck on the weekend.

Driving in water fragment

I was with some guy in a car and he was driving. There was a pond or creek off to the right and he veered off the road and started driving in the shallow water near the shore. I opened the door to put my foot in the water and I realized that I had my nice suede shoes on. I thought I probably ruined the right one.

[Moonbeam]

Yeah, I wonder if I'll ever achieve my Jessica Alba goal. :( Every time I try somehow I either fail or get sidetracked.

Maybe you should use reverse psychology.  Repeat:  "Jessica Alba is disgusting and hideous!  I wouldn't touch her with a ten-foot pole!"

Terrible recall again. I wonder if I'm getting sick. That's usually the first thing to happen. I hope I have better luck on the weekend.

That's going around.  I hope it's not illness related.

[unseen wombat]

LOL, that might be a good idea. When I do manage to find her, I usually get too excited and wake up from that.

Yeah, I hope I'm not getting sick. I hate that.

10-9-08

I remembered one pretty nice dream today. Holly is back in my dreams again, which is nice. If I get lucid this weekend, I'll go for her instead of Jessica Alba, since my thoughts are apparently directed towards her anyway.

Holly at the food court

Another one in a food court. IDK if it was the same one as before, I don't think so. I remember I had to pee really bad, and I was looking for a bathroom. I had just been eating something at a restaurant there, and as I passed up another one, this foreign guy ran up to the cash register to ask if I wanted anything. I was full though, and was looking for the bathroom.

I eventually found one and it was huge! This was almost like The Locker Room, but that one is usually in the basement of The School, and goes on forever, this bathroom was just really big. Stalls were laid out all over the place, and there were some benches in other places in there. It's really an interesting place, I'd like to explore it sometime. Anyway, I had no shoes on, and the floor was wet in places and I was getting grossed out by that. Eventually I decided it was too gross to stay in there with no shoes, so I left.

I went out, and Holly was standing in this area that was kinda like a bar or a night club. She was with Melissa, (who was actually friends with my ex-gf Bridget). They were talking, and I just couldn't stop looking at Holly. I didn't want her to catch me gawking at her though, so I tried to look away as much as I could, but I always came back to her. I didn't say anything, and eventually, I turned and walked away.

Then there was some kind of seafood restaurant I came to, and there was this prehistoric-looking squid with a long pointy shell. It was in a wooden box along a wall, and some kid asked what it was. I said "It's an anenome," and he was like, "an anenome?" And I said, "Yeah, an anemone."

That's all I remember.

[joshbotch]

wet floor with no shoes, that is really gross sounding... to bad such a neat place had to be gross.  is holly someone from real live or another actress?

[unseen wombat]

Spoiler for  

She was my girlfriend when I was 15. I loved her so much, but we broke up and I was ruined for years. I like having dreams about her though. It's as though we're together again. Don't tell my wife.

Nothing today. Just a stupid fragment.

Router Table fragment

I was working in my basement on the router table I have down there. That's all, which is pretty sad.

[unseen wombat]

10-11-08

We had to wake up early to go to Amish country today, so I didn't get a chance to do a real WBTB or take any supplements. Tomorrow I'll try some Nicotine and Huperzine. This time I'll take some Choline with it too.

My recall from early in the night was crappy again.

Looking for a bathroom at the amusement park

It wasn't The Amusement Park, it was just a generic one I think. I was walking around with my mom and my wife. I eventually had to go to the bathroom and found one after a little while looking. It was a really big place, like The Locker Room, and as I was peeing, I could see through some cracks in the wall to another area of the bathroom. I saw that in the toilet there was a deodorizer hanging from the side. It was shaped like a butterfly with its wings partially open. The wings were curved too. I saw later that all the toilets had butterfly deodorizers, and they were all different colors.

This morning was awesome. I had an incredibly long lucid, and though I lost a lot of details it was still pretty good. I took the Nicotine and Huperzine right at the beginning of my WBTB, then 2 Cholines right before going BTB. I was up for an hour and 5 minutes.

Gym and deserted building/Flying and violence WILD

I started by trying to WILD from my back, but like usual, I wasn't able to do it. So I turned on my side expecting to just fall asleep and DILD, but I managed to catch myself just as I was about to fall asleep. I felt fairly strong vibrations, heard a ringing in my ears, and felt somewhat of a sinking feeling. I then had a basketball in my hands, and I started to bounce it to get some tactile sensations. I was in this gymnasium with white block walls, and it had a door in the one corner where my closet is in my bedroom IRL. There were two other people with me, one guy, IDR what he did. And there was one old woman, who was being mean to me somehow. IDR. I think she was telling me I should do something and was nagging me about it. I knew I was dreaming, so I grabbed her and threw her into the wall.

Then I left, and found myself in this fairly wide hallway. The carpeting was mostly blue, with some red rectangles in it. I thought this was because of something screwy with my vision IRL. The carpet seemed to be flashing at me, like it was a trick of my eyes. I also was aware of my body laying in bed, but I felt that it was just a second dream body, and if I were to wake up, it would surely be a false awakening.

I wanted to find either Jessica Alba or Reon Kadena, but there was nobody in this building. I somehow went outside, IDR how, and started to fly. I just took a few steps and took off. It was really intense and a lot of fun. I was so excited at it, that I woke up.

But it was just a false awakening, and I knew it. There was a hot girl there in front of me, but her boyfriend was there too. He was a big guy and was standing behind her looking at me menacingly. I wasn't having any of that, so I grabbed him and pulled him over. I wanted to kill him, so I grabbed the side of his neck with one hand and pulled. It was tough, but after a while, I managed to rip off part of it and he fell down dead. (That's really pretty disturbing now that I think of it).

Then I started making out with her, which was pretty awesome.

Awesome movie

I was at this merengue concert with this hot babe. We were in the pool, and I think I was a member of the group that was singing. Her husband was there, but I knew she wanted to cheat on him with me. (I would never do that IRL). But we started singing about him, and how he only made $64,000 per year.

Then later, I watched as a guy was sitting with this woman who was a financial advisor. He was another guy in the merengue group. She was telling him that he should have left the country and she was mad at him about it.

Then I was with this hot babe, and we were both in the bathtub together. I was on top of her, and we were making out. The guy from before came into the room with a gun. It had some kind of electrical thing on the barrell, and he put it in the water which shocked us. IDR how it felt though. The woman under me sunk, and I thought he had killed her.

Then it wasn't me anymore. I was watching this in third person, and I thought it was a movie. The guy now had two guns, and the other guy who used to be me, got up to face him. The woman got up too, so she wasn't dead. Then he somehow set the guns down, and they started fighting. I was then looking at Intrade.com, which was giving odds on who was going to win the fight. I knew the guy who used to be me was the good guy, so I thought it was obvious that he was going to win in the movie. I thought I should put some money down on him.

Then the hot babe was with a bunch of other babes on this wooded mountain. They all had machine guns and were getting ready to fight the bad guy. They all charged down the mountain and came to this road. The bad guy was there, but he was in the FBI, and there were a whole bunch of other agents there. They had a huge shootout, and finally someone shouted to cease fire.

Then I woke up.
