Vex Kitten's Workbook

My Nightly Mantra:

I am a lucid dreamer.
I will awaken in my dreams despite how real the dreamscape seems.

July 1st

Got lucky and had a short DILD today.

I've been gnawing on my finger all day and evening long, hopefully that will start carrying over more into my regular dreams.
I've repeated my mantra in my mind occasionally through the day too. Just randomly when I remembered to.

Just about to sign off and meditate in the dark before bed. Will be repeating the mantra as classical music plays lightly in the background.
Also, will be sending out positive thoughts and energy to AspirationRealized.

LET IT RAIN, ASPIRATIONREALIZED.

Reality Checking

So, I never realized just how really intrusive the fingerbite check is until I did it about 30 times. I got some odd looks but most people know I do weird things from time to time so they shrugged it off. My sister said, "You're biting your fingers? What next, you going to try biting your face?" I laughed but then thought that biting one's own face might be an interesting lucid challenge. I think I will try it sometime (in LD, not in real life. I'm not that crazy... yet)

Reality check: The finger bite thing
When: Every time I passed though a door
How many times: Lost count at 30 something.

Been saying my mantra out loud randomly through the day. Will be retiring shortly to do the pre bed, mind calming meditiation/mantra thing. I rather like repeating the mantra. So far it has served to make me drift off a lot quicker than usually I would.

 :D Sendin' out some positive energy to Lucidbulbs :D

July 3rd

I kept getting awakened by neighborhood dogs barking all last night. Why, why WHY do they do that? It feels as if they are doing it to annoy the hell out of me specifically. It's like they all sit outside just waiting for me to go to bed, just waiting for that final light to wink out in my house so they can all bark like no tomorrow.
Good thing that came out of it, I got to mentally repeated my mantra every time I woke up. Not sure if if worked and gave me a lucid dream. I have no recall from last night. Felt sleep deprived all day but managed to get some reality checking done.

Reality check: The finger bite thing
When: Every time I passed though a door
How many times: 15-20 times.

July 11th

My RCing has become sparse.

While I was away at the fast from the 8th-10th I only reality checked a few times, maybe about 10 times the entire time there.
I should have checked more because I was plagued by the feeling that I was dreaming most of the time. That feeling got stronger the longer I stayed.

No lucid dreams to report. I hoped to nab one over the fast to see what a lucid dream would be like while my body and mind were in a detoxifying mode. I didn't have any really interesting dreams during that time either. Not that I remember.

Back on track today.
RCing like crazy. I would love a lucid dream tonight.
I am repeating my mantra aloud when ever I remember to.
I have a clear schedule this month and will attend the dreaming group next week.
I will be reading dream journals before bed (something that worked wonderfully in the past to help me to lucid dream)

No lucid dream yet. That just means one hell of a good one is way overdue.

Still RCing like no tomorrow. I haven't kept count. I RC when passing through door ways and whenever I see family members.

I also am thinking of getting people to tell me to RC. I'll have them say RC instead of hello or hi, just to help me along. Sure they'll think I'm a tad crazy but I don't care. They already think I'm weird so might as well use that to my advantage.

Reading dream journals and other dream relates articles to keep my mind focussed.

I'm ready for the kick ass lucid dream that's coming tonight. I can't wait to get to bed. And no, that's not just the laziness talking.

Remember, REALITY CHECK.
I have been.
YOU HAVEN"T BEEN RCing ENOUGH!
I think I have.
NO YOU HAVEN'T.
I have.
IF YOU HAD BEEN, YOU'D HAVE HAD AT LEAST ONE DILD BY NOW!
Uh... yeah... but...
NO BUTS ABOUT IT. RC DAMMIT. RC LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.
Yes mom.
DON'T SMART ASS ME. RC.
Okay. I RCed. I'm awake.
DO ITAGAIN.
Okay. I did. Still awake.
ARE YOU SURE?
Yep. Just checked again. I have teeth marks all up and down my right pointer finger.
TRY A DIFFERENT RC.
Okay. I'm either awake or my ass is too heavy to levitate off of the chair.
MIGHT BE YOUR ASS. IT IS GETTING KIND OF WIDE. RC AGAIN.
Nose checked and I can't breath.
DAMN. I'D HOPED THIS WAS A DREAM. I DON'T THINK ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD TALK TO THEMSELVES IN A POST UNLESS IT WERE IN A DREAM.
Yeah, I think there is a nut house out there that's missing it's #1 patient right now...
