Trial and Error

"TORNADOS in SF?"

Tornadoes where destroying the bay area. We were in downtown San Francisco when we heard the tornado warning, but were very confused since we had never gotten one in SF before. Suddenly one emerges from behind a building. We notice that it is heading toward civic center bart and realize that we need to get out of the city before we become stranded with the tornadoes. We get on bart and go over the bay to oakland.

When we emerge from underground there is a tornado next to us gliding adjacent to the train as if it followed us, more emerging in the distance. It starts to pick up cars and haphazardly through them in different directions. I watch as an orange car is slowly lifted and gently brought to the top of the cyclone and for a long while was harmlessly held in a rotating motion on the top of it. I realize that I have to send a picture to Rebel or she will never believe me XD. I am suddenly standing next to it trying to snap a picture but they keep ending up blurry since they are moving so fast. It finally hucks the car  and it lands only a few feet away. I get startles for a moment and then return to being fixated on getting a good picture XD (I can see this happening IWL)

I have a moment of realization that the cyclones must be all over the bay area and that it is no use to run. So we get back on bart and start returning to the city.

"The Castro"

I was heading to hot cookie to get chocolate penis cake for a friends b-day when I had a sudden realization that it was 2 in the morning. I had left spur of the moment not thinking about what time it was. I look to the sky and am surprised at how bright it is, it looked like it could be the break of dawn.

I am exhausted and regretting staying out all night. I realize it will take me at least an hour to get home. I suddenly run into a duo of friends from high school in a clothing store that almost looks like a flea market stand near the castro theater. I start to catch up with them and they start talking like they are stoned surfer dudes (which is a bit funny since IWL they were like 4.0 students that never had fun XD) They tell me they are so going catch some gnarly waves. I give them a funny look since we were in the castro and they didn't have surf boards.

A roommate of mind at the time was pregnant and started to go into labor. I laid her down on the couch and started talking her through it. She looks at me confused and says something like "Should you really be the one doing this?" I suddenly get a sharp main in my stomach and look down to see I am also pregnant and started going into labor. I get of the couch and start walking away but it is too late. The baby slides right out and I catch it under me, the whole time just trying to guide my roommate through her labor.

"Since I have no place to go"

It started out with me getting kidnapped and tied up with duck tape in my own real life apt XD
Luckily it was the laziest kidnapper ever and I was able to slip out of the ties with little problem, and run out.

I go down the stairs and to the front door. The door has a sign reading wet paint and there is a fresh coat of white paint on the door. I turn the handle and slip out without getting paint on me, and run into the street. I am worried the kidnapper is following me so I begin to try and stop people in the street and get them to call the police.

The first person I go up to is oddly proportioned and wants nothing to do with what I have to say, and the people just get weirder. I then run into two women who have what seems to be a permanent fluctuation expression of extreme shock. They were also disproportionate in ways that made their head, mouths, and hands huge and everything else smaller. This only added to their freaked out expression. I asked them if they could help me and they both begin screaming,  but seem like they are listening. I wonder if that is just the way they are or if they are really that skiddish. I stop confused for a moment and continue to explain that I need someone to call the police. They shriek as though I am threatening them at gun point, but preceed to take out a cell phone and make the call. I have the sudden worry that they are calling the police on me so I make my way.

I am no longer alarmed and start to just walk through the streets. I realize that everyone that I come across is strangely colored and disproportionate. One guy, about two feet tall, runs by. He seems as though he is being pulled by his giant right arm and hand clenched into a fist. His body seems almost red. I wonder why everyone is so strange until a thought occurs "Must just be since I'm dreaming" only then do I realize it is a dream.  I start thinking about what I should do and think "I am enjoying just walking through the streets"

I notice that there is a small puddle forming from a light misty drizzle that has started. I remember that I want to make it snow. I decide to make it rain first to make it easier to conceptualize. I make an epic gesture  and  pull my arms down summoning a torrent of rain to start. It happened so much easier than other things I have done in lucids. I wave my arms again to freeze the rain, it goes from a torrent of fast rain, so slowly gliding flakes and a layer of snow appears on the ground.

It was so cool! It is not accumulating very fast though. So I decide to speed things up. I wave my arms again and a blizzard starts. I let it blow until my phone makes noise waking me up!

"Ghost"

I was in my room which was almost the spitting image of a room I had about a year ago with a bunch of roommates.
I was lying in my twin bed (that I was sleeping in) against the left wall, the bunk beds were pushed against an adjacent wall where the window was, and the desk of two mac towers from my current work were along the wall across from me where a roomies desk had been. L is in the bottom bunk, Rebel in the top one.

One of the screens had a picture of my roomie and her parents. I turn to where she is laying in the bottom bunk and tell her that with that picture on my computer at work all the time I could probably pick them out of a crowd. She stands and goes toward to the desk. The picture is gone, and in its place are her twin and brother standing in the same orientation as the picture in front of the desk. She says something to them that seemed almost like "That's enough, you can go home." They pick up their stuff and stretch. Her brother waves as he leaves and her twin goes and lays in the bottom bunk, L is suddenly gone. I am confused since I knew that the picture had been on the desktop for months, and if they were actually people, how were they paying their rent? I have the fleeting thought that it was her parents not her siblings, but dream logics snuffed it out quick.

I get up to use the restroom. It is a very small room with two toilets facing each other as well as one standing since with a red slash, horizontally, down the center. I wash my hands and think for a moment "Is this what they mean by 1.5 bath? because it is still just one sink." I finnish washing and feeling ripped off and head back toward the room.

I suddenly feel something. A warmth. My head becomes hot and starts radiating heat to the rest of my body. I feel immobilized as the warmth seems to articulate words. I hear a voice mumble to me in an eerie, breathy, childlike voice. It feels as though it is coming forcibly from inside my own head. As if a ghost child is trying to possess me. I hear that it says words, but can not make out what they are, only that they were in a cold, serious tone said with a gleeful confidence.

Then suddenly it is gone. My body starts cooling down and I run into the room saying
"Rebel!"
She responds "What?"
"I. LEGIT. Just heard something." I remember saying heard in such a way that it could only imply a ghostly presence.
Rebel responses with "That's nice." 
"No! It was a real ghost!" I start panicing at the idea she does not believe me. "I don't know what is going on!" I climb to the top bunk and hug her. She hugs back reluctantly with a sigh, and precedes to make farting noises with her hands behind my back. I was insulted but couldn't help but find it funny and made farting noises back.

I continue to try and convince here that there was something in the room "I heard it." I say "I. Felt! it."
"Ok. Go to sleep"
"I can't sleep."
She lays down and discovers a small Wonder Woman pillow. (She knows I love Wonder Woman) I see her go through a mental process of giving it to me to make me go away. Along with her point of view looking at how many pillows I have, and weighing whether she had enough pillows. She hands to to me and says "Take Wonder Woman. Feel better. Go to sleep." I take it and go.

I hear L's sister begin to sleep talk in the bottom bunk about a vcr, and lay down on the little pillow. It is really small and uncomfortable, like there is just a piece of foam inside, but I don't really care.
I don't doubt for a second that the ghost was real, but am unsure what I could do about it at this point.

I lay for awhile until the warmth returns. I freeze, and my blanket begins to lift off of me. I turn to try and get it an become unable to move. The warmth becomes almost a burning and I try to call to Rebel but my mouth is stuck a little bit open and can not get it to close, or summon a voice to make words.

I wake up. I had woken up earlier from my roommates alarm, so I know the dream lasted only 9 mins. So strange.
