AMAZING sets of dreams last night. Here we go.

-First off, I think I was at someone's house that I didn't recognize. I was making enchiladas except they had a weird brown sauce on them with purple onions. I met some people that thought I was a reporter and asked if I went to a certain "Reporter School" LOL. Connected to this house was a small convenience store. I was buying something and I went to pay him but I would always pull out a weird amount of change. I meant to grab some coins from my pocket but would grab a 20 or 50 or something like that. I kept digging and eventually came up with 2 cents and handed it to the cashier, who was of hispanic ethnicity.

-Myself, Alex and some other unknown people were going to watch a movie. The room looked very similar to Larry's living room. We all sat down and turned the TV on but the movie wouldn't start. There was something wrong with the TV and we tried to fiddle around with the internet connection for some reason as there was a router right next to the TV.

-I was in a huge field with a huge building in the background that resembled a massive cathedral. I was there with a group of unknown people and we were all going to build a house out of delicious graham crackers. To make this dream a little more interesting, there were two people arguing the whole time about something that I didn't understand. One person I didn't recognize but the other was Seth Green. It was kind of funny because it was definitely him in my dream. Building a house out of graham crackers. Sweet, sweet graham crackers.

-I was in a jungle ruin with a handful of people. I recognized Jeff and Ben and then maybe 2 or 3 others that were unknown. We were in an opening with large stone pillars with jungle vines growing around them. In the middle was sort of a busy marketplace with colorful shops. In the corner there was a Mickey Mouse stuffed doll with a huge exclamation point above his head. The weird part about this, was at this point I only saw the world through a 3/4 perspective. I could see our group walking towards the doll, weird feeling. As soon as I got to the doll, I reverted back to first person. I saw my cat, Jack there examining the doll. Next to us was a long walkway that ended with a white light. End of the sequence there.

-I'm fairly certain this was a different dream sequence, but we were in the same jungle ruins. It was the middle of the night. We were on top of these massive evil looking turtles. Its hard to describe what they looked like, but they had red eyes and a weird overbite. They carried us on there backs on top of this giant stone pillar with vines everywhere. They formed a line going into an underwater cavern that was cut into the top of the pillar. At this point we saw the cavern and needed to escape. We jumped off the turtles and climbed down to the floor level (which was oddly a few feet). As soon as we hit the floor, we were joined by these other turtles in different sizes and forms. Right in front of us were small turtles, maybe the size of a housecat. We still needed to avoid them because they were coming for us.

There were large hedges on the other side of the walkway from the pillar so we had limited escape options. Everyone kind of went there on direction and I ran forward. In the distance I saw a huge turtle-humanoid creature, maybe 20 feet tall. This is were I achieved a minimal amount of lucidity. I turned around and ran with fear. I heard this creature growl and it shook me, it was loud and menacing. I can still feel it as I recall this. I turned the corner, avoiding the smaller turtles and this was the point were I was trying to realize that I was dreaming. I ran forward through the lighted walkways and found that I was suddenly in a dark parking lot, still running as fast as I could. I saw a figure emerge from the darkness to my left and I couldn't really tell who it was other than some creepy smaller human. I ran faster. In the far distance I noticed a Costco, with bright lights, thinking this was a safe spot. So I did the one thing I love doing in dreams. I jumped into the air and started to fly. I got maybe 10 feet into the air and then I woke up. ARGGGGGG!!!

(hard to describe what it was like where I was in a dream, trying to figure out if I was in a dream or not. Sounds confusing, but that is the best way to sum up whether I was lucid or not. It felt different than any other dream though.
