Dream 1006 (LUKE SKYWALKER SEX DREAM)

'Older Luke Skywalker Seduces Me Again, this Time in a Slime-Covered Hotel Room, in Breach of his Probation'

Date: 10 July 2019
Scene 1: A Domestic Interior - Day
I was in a house, which in the dream was my home, but is not one I recognise from real life. It was a normal, terraced house with a front garden. I cannot recall the furniture or decor of the house, but nothing stood out as odd. I was in the living room, looking out at the front garden and the street in front of me - which was a suburban street. This is how I knew it was daytime and that the house had a front garden. The garden was very green and lush - quite overgrown with grass, weeds and wild flowers. I think it was sunny - it was bright outside. I felt like I was waiting for something or someone to arrive at the house. I cannot recall if there were any other dream characters present. 

At some point, I saw Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker in Star Wars) arrive and I knew that he was the person I was waiting for - and he was late, but this felt 'normal' and 'expected' of Luke Skywalker (I was aware that this was Luke Skywalker - so his character from Star Wars existed, rather than him being his actual self - note that he was his real life age, not a young Luke Skywalker). Luke Skywalker was holding a gift box which was wrapped up in pink shiny paper. I knew this was a gift for me and was excited. I let Luke Skywalker into the house. He was dressed in brown Jedi robes, but looked really scruffy and dirty and in a bad mood. I was given the gift, and I saw the wrapping paper looked holographic. I opened it and inside was a crescent-shaped piece of cheese, which looked extremely like a banana, although I am not sure if I actually noticed this in the dream or whether this is just my conscious recognition (see my Quickshot Dream Incubation Experiment (QDI#4) below - in which the dream trigger was a banana. Luke Skywalker told me that the cheese was 'Quebec' (this was the type of cheese it was, not where it was from). I knew in my own mind that Quebec cheese was made from crack cocaine, so I did not want to accept the gift, although I also did not want to directly say this to Luke Skywalker because I did not want to offend him. We were standing together and I cannot recall what we talked about, but I think there was some conversation here. 

Scene 2: A Hotel - Night
Luke Skywalker and I then went to a hotel together. I am not sure of where the location was, but it was in the same town we had been in when inside the domestic interior of Scene 1 - the reason we had gone to the hotel was because Luke Skywalker was worried that he would be found by his Probation Officer, because he wasn't allowed to be near 'areas of nature' (meaning anything where there were plants, or so I understood in the dream). The hotel was at the seaside and was a big, white wedding-cake style hotel (my favourite type!) on a cliff. I was wondering if grass counted as 'nature' under the terms of Luke Skywalker's probation, but I did not ask Luke Skywalker this, because I was aware he was already angry about something (I am not sure if I ever knew what he was angry about - if I did, I have forgotten). Inside the hotel, everything was purple and very old fashioned/classic British seaside hotel style. There were a number of dream characters in the lobby area. We went to a hotel room, which was on the ground floor. It was really awful inside the room, because everything was slimy - it was as if someone or something had coated every single piece of furniture with a thin layer of clear slime, which was repulsive to me, even in the dream. I did not know where the slime had come from or why it was there. I am not sure what happened in between, but the next thing I recall from this dream was going into the ensuite bathroom with Luke Skywalker and having sex with him in the bath, which was not slimy - it was white, probably porcelain (I am guessing). The bathroom was the only clean area of the hotel room. In the dream the sex I had with Luke Skywalker was really satisfying and passionate (in missionary position only, as far as I recall). I do not think this was a wet dream (as in I do not think that I experienced a real life orgasm) but it felt climactic in the dream itself and I really fancied Luke Skywalker. In the dream it appeared that I was single - i.e. not dating my real life boyfriend AJR, as there was no thought of cheating or infidelity and I was not trying to hide the fact I was on a date with Luke Skywalker. There was a knock at the hotel door and I was trying to tell Luke Skywalker not to answer it because I wanted to have sex with him again. It appeared that we had not taken our clothes off to have sex because we were already fully clothed at this time. Luke went to answer the door. It was his Probation Officer, telling him that he had breached his probation by being next to nature (I think he must have found out Luke Skywalker had been to my house earlier). Luke Skywalker was arguing that he had not breached his probation and he had proof, because the 'vlog' would show this (it seemed like he might have been vlogging our journey to the hotel? I'm not sure what he meant by this). I came out of the bathroom into the bedroom part of the hotel room and noticed that it was very dark. I could see that Luke Skywalker's Probation Officer was Jason Nash (of the Vlog Squad, and ex-boyfriend of Trisha Paytas). He was standing in the doorway of the hotel room, wearing a navy uniform which I thought made him look like an old-fashioned police officer and I wondered why he was dressed like this. I also thought that Jason Nash was very hypocritical to be warning Luke Skywalker about breaching his probation, because he was a Youtuber and therefore, did not need to be earning money as a Probation Officer. Luke Skywalker was told that he had to go to court in the morning so that he could be tried for breaching his probation. I told Jason Nash that the vlog footage wouldn't be edited by then and the case should be adjourned, but Jason Nash said he didn't care. 

I cannot recall what else happened in this dream after this scene.

Additional Notes:

• This dream took place within the 24 hours I was attempting Quickshot Dream Incubation | QDI#4 (see my introductory article - Quickshot Dream Incubations | QDI#1 and my video for QDI#4, below) - I had some partial success here! Stay tuned for QDI#5!
• On the day of this dream I had been talking to DL about Mark Hamill being the voice actor for Chucky in the 2019 remake of Child's Play (1988)
• AJR is coming up for parole in the next couple of days, so the reference to probation conditions relates to that - and we specifically discussed probation breaches the day of this dream
• I had been watching a Jason Nash video on Youtube on the day of this dream

Dream 1005 (PARTIAL NIGHTMARE)

'Bare-chested Nightmare Stalker Woman & Beanstalks'

Date: 10 July 2019
Scene 1: An Unknown Interior - Night
This dream was very vivid - perhaps as a result of REM Rebound Effect and also the Vitamin B6 in the Vitamin B Complex pills I have been taking. I woke up briefly from this dream and then fell back asleep before doing anything to consolidate the memory or record the dream. I was awoken from the second period of sleep by a telephone call from AJR on my landline. This means that I have forgotten a large amount of this vivid and complex dream, which is unfortunate as I remember that I found this very interesting and extraordinary when I first woke up from it and was excited to record it on this Blog. 

The first scene took place in an interior, which I cannot recall. My cousin HM was present, along with some other (maybe 2?) female dream characters, who I know are familiar to me in real life - I think they may have been girls I went to high school with. In the dream I found it odd that my cousin knew them and was socialising with them. I had a distinct feeling of being isolated and left out. I wanted/needed to buy gifts for my cousin HM - I am not sure why. I was confused as to what gifts would be age-appropriate for her, as she seemed to be a child (she is 3 years younger than me in real life, and a married mother). HM and the other female dream characters were sitting around a table, closely, heads bowed, talking about something, or doing some kind of unseen activity - there was a sense of secrecy about what they were doing. 

I left and went to what I think was a section of the WH Smith shop in York Train Station (I feel that this shop has appeared in previous dreams - which at the time of writing this dream record, I have not yet investigated/researched - I will do this and post my results below. I have not been to York or the train station there since my undergraduate degree days in the early 2000s). I was looking at a shelf of items - it is not clear what items were on the shelves - I did recall when I first woke up, but I have forgotten. I remember that I selected a few items, but were doubting if they were appropriate for HM. I cannot remember exactly what items I bought as gifts, other than there was a pot plant, a doll or teddy bear and a colouring book. I was unsure about these gifts. 

Scene 2: AJR's Mum's House - Night
This was the most interesting dream scene in my memory, and it is the one I have forgotten the most detail about, which is a shame. I was in AJR's mum's house (I have never been there before in real life - I will visit for the first time when he is released from prison). The house was very open plan and the lights were very bright. There were sliding patio doors leading out to a garden and the room appeared to be a kitchen and lounge area, although I cannot recall anything else about the decor or furnishings. I had come running into the house in a panic, from outside. AJR's mum showed concern as to why I was scared and I told her I was being stalked by a small woman. AJR's mum was talking to me about this, when the small woman attempted to enter the house via the patio doors. She was small - about 4.5 foot i height and very bent over and crooked. She was white and had messy brown hair - and appeared to be older than myself and AJR's mum, but I cannot recall anything else about her appearance, other than she was wearing a white top which was torn at the front and was exposing a bare breast, which had a very prominent lactating nipple. This made me feel even more scared of her. I knew the woman had bad intent towards me, although the details of this have been forgotten. AJR's mum said that the cats (apparently there were a number of cats in the house) would deal with the situation. The idea was that the cats would be used to scare the bare-chested stalker woman away. I felt terrified and was trying to stay away from the patio door in case the woman got to me. I cannot recall what happened, but I know that either AJR's mum or the cats did manage to get her to leave and I was unharmed. This section of the dream felt like a nightmare. 

Scene 3: An Unknown Interior - Time Unknown
There was a large quantity of this dream scene which I have forgotten. I remember feeling very unsettled during this part of the dream, although I cannot recall why. There was a very strange feeling. I was in an interior, which I cannot remember, although I had a thought about the Two Lifeboats Hotel, Sheringham, where I used to work with my Mum. Something to do with wanting to work that day and not being able to. I saw my cousin HM and the other female dream characters from Scene 1 - they had the gifts I had purchased for them earlier in the dream. The small pot plant had not grown into a huge beanstalk (still in the pot), which extended for hundreds of meters into the sky (which meant that the ceiling was extremely high and I could not see it). I was surprised by this - and again, very unsettled, as it did not appear to be 'normal'. I still felt isolated and ostracised - no-one was directly acknowledging me. 

I cannot recall anything else about this dream.

Additional Notes:

• I am sure I have had a previous dream set in York train station, and specifically the WH Smith's shop there, but I cannot find it on this Blog, which leads me to believe it might be a false memory. I have a distinct (real life?) memory of being in that shop and flicking through a magazine which was running a story about Mariah Carey's mental breakdown, her 'feud' with Jennifer Lopez and the fact she thought Marilyn Monroe was communicating with her through a piano she once owned that Mariah had bought. Searching Google about this latter incident reveals articles dating back to 2001 - which would have been the period during which I was an undergraduate at the University of York, and regularly travelling by train (I used to go to Manchester on the weekends as I was dating someone, CW, who lived there). I will keep investigating this, as I was 99% certain I had a dream which referenced these real life memories, which stand out so clearly in my mind
• I had a telephone conversation with AJR's mum shortly before I went to sleep and had this dream
• AJR's mum said she would be 'sorting' some things out - this involved not only purchasing certain household items for AJR, but also in relation to a problematic woman with bad intent who has a fixation on AJR
• AJR's mum mentioned she had hedgehogs in her back garden
• As I was falling asleep, I was watching a Youtube video from Nexpo, which involved a mysterious incident involving home security cameras, cats and a presence causing fear in a Reddit user. I noticed that the next video on autoplay was about an experience with a stalker
• On the night before this dream I was preparing thumbnails for my latest video - part of The Dreamhacker Series, which teaches dreamwork. Initially I had considered using an image of myself on the thumbnail and the one I had selected showed me wearing a white top which dropped down and exposed my shoulder 

UPDATE

I continued to search this Blog for a dream involving York Train Station and WH Smiths, and eventually managed to find one - looking at this dream, I am shocked beyond belief at some of the content - I have copied the dream below - rather annoyingly, I had labelled this dream 'Lucid Dream Report 2 - Explanation of an Orgasm Dream' (28 January 2012), meaning that it does not follow my usual sequential numbering system for recording my dreams. I hate re-reading past posts on my Blog as everything seems inconsistent and messy! However, I want to spend some time explaining why this dream seems so odd and prophetic to me.

"The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream"

28 January 2012

This wasn’t a full lucid dream, but I have recorded it as if it were one due to the fact that, during this particular dream, I experienced the most successful application of the MILD technique yet. I feel as if this dream was some form of ‘breakthrough’ in my lucid dream training.

Techniques/triggers

Mental/training

• MILD technique (20 minutes, accompanied by alpha binaural beats – see below)

I devised a new mnemonic technique over the last few days to see if it would be more effective. I began practicing the MILD technique at random, but regular times throughout the day (usually during a study break, when I was able to lie in a quiet room). I formulated a new mnemonic over a period of 2 – 3 days, starting with the phrase ‘Awareness, control, recall’ (i.e. ‘next time I dream I want to be aware I am dreaming; in control of my dream; and able to recall my dream on waking’). This was gradually condensed in meditation to a simple mental repetition of ‘ACR’. When I focus on this mnemonic, I picture the infinity symbol (a horizontal figure 8), as it seems to come naturally to mind when I meditate on my mnemonic. I also mark the back of my hand with the letters ‘ACR’ as a form of lucid dream trigger during waking hours.

• WBTB (Wake-Back-to-Bed) technique (woke after 7 hours of delta sleep; remained awake for 20 minutes, then returned to above MILD technique/sleep)

Binaural beats 

• 20 minutes of alpha beats during MILD (before delta sleep)
• 90 minutes of delta beats (to properly induce delta sleep)
• 20 minutes of alpha beats (following WBTB/MILD technique)
•   1 hour of theta/gamma mix beats following alpha meditation (to induce REM sleep/lucidity)

Lucid dream supplements

• High strength cod liver oil enriched with omega 3, 6 & 9 (3,600 mg)
• Multivitamins A – Z with evening meal
• Sea kelp (iodine) (90 mg)
• CoEnzyme Q-10 (150 mg)
• Gingko Biloba (120 mg)
• Vitamin B Complex & added vitamin B6 (10 mg)
• No 5-HTP (experimenting without to test improvement in dream recall)

Time of dream

During 1^st hour of morning sleep following WBTB technique (after 7 hours of delta sleep)

Content

No lucidity at the start. I was standing watching a race/athletics running track. Running towards me was a white female nurse in full uniform, wearing sweatbands on her wrists and holding a notebook in front of her in both hands. She seemed to be massively tall – perhaps 7 foot tall. I didn’t try to communicate with her, but I realised that the race track was exactly the same as a local one in real-life which PS had used for shooting a music video (although the rapper in the video was a black male of normal height). I think this may have been a clue that I was dreaming – I was able to recognise what I was seeing in my dream as being ‘inspired’ by something I saw in real-life. The dream scene transitioned and suddenly I was sitting backwards on a dining room chair. I realised I was naked, but for a white thong. I was sticking my butt out and I turned round to check whether I really was naked, seeing my bare flesh. Suddenly I felt a male’s hands on my lower body, squeezing the flesh. I heard a voice say; “I still think you are the sexiest woman alive”. I didn’t recognise the voice exactly – it wasn’t one known to me in real-life. I then found myself walking down a corridor of a building and through double-doors – I wondered if it was a hospital – the decor was all brown and drab and the double-doors were made of rough wood, with circular windows cut out (I was reminded of the series of Doors paintings by British contemporary artist, Gary Hume). I stepped out onto a train platform – I noticed straightaway that it was York (where I attended university for my first undergraduate degree, although I have not visited in many years). I remembered (a real-life memory, recalled whilst in the dream) that I had once read an article in a magazine about Mariah Carey’s mental breakdown (several years ago) whilst standing outside by the glass-walled waiting rooms. I went into the WH Smiths store and looked at the magazine rack – sure enough, a magazine featuring a story of Mariah’s breakdown was prominently placed on the shelf – my eyes were instantly drawn to it. I wondered if I had gone back in time. I walked onto another platform (the one I used to depart from when visiting Manchester – i.e. westbound). There was a male character there, in addition to many other bystanders, all going about their business. The male was white with medium brown hair – unknown to me in real-life, and fairly non-descript. I would age him at approximately 20 – 25 years. I didn’t really care about getting to know him or finding out why he seemed to be waiting for me on the platform, but I knew I was supposed to speak to him (it was as if it were a ‘necessary chore’). The male asked me what an orgasm was and I found myself explaining, although I was finding it very difficult as I’m not an anatomical expert, nor a doctor. I was using crude, non-medical terminology and no matter how many times I tried to explain, the male couldn’t comprehend the concept of an orgasm whatsoever. I was becoming frustrated. I asked him what his name was. He answered; “ACR” and instantly I became lucid. I felt absolutely elated and recognised the fact this was my lucid dream trigger in operation. I then had the following realisation: ‘I bet I’m in York because earlier I told a friend and mutual fan of writer/actress Julia Davis (my favourite woman on British TV and idol) that she had attended York to read English & Drama and this has influenced my dream location’. I didn’t know what to do with my lucidity as I felt so excited. I said to the male character: “I’m in control of this dream, I can do what I like”. He said: “go on then”. I didn’t have a clue what I should do. I remembered that two days before when I was on a train to London, we had been trapped onboard due to a fatality (someone getting severed by the train) which had become a potential crime scene. I thought: ‘should I push him into the side of a train?’ I heard a train approaching the platform at speed. I changed my mind. Instead, I took my index finger and poked him in the forehead. I felt my finger push through his skull into his brain. He fell down dead on the platform. I said (in reference to a conversation I had being having earlier in my waking-life, about the footballer Diego Maradona): “hand of God!” I thought that I had better leave the scene and almost immediately I found myself standing in a glistening skyscraper, looking out to a glittering metropolis (it seemed to be in America to me, or at least that is the association my mind made). The sun was so bright and hot, it was bouncing off the millions of glass windows and the cars below. I could see wide sandy-coloured roads and luscious palm trees and thought: ‘California’. I then knew it was not the present time, but sometime in the golden age of the 1980s economic boom – I could see people at street level with 1980s fashion and primitive mobile telephones – yuppies. I felt very happy and positive – everything seemed to be buzzing with life, business and success in this city. I couldn’t get myself down to ground level – I was stuck in the skyscraper looking out. If I wanted to see what was below me in closer detail, I could - but it was more like a mental projection – I was always standing in the office space above, by the floor-to-ceiling window, feeling the sun radiate onto my face and obscure my vision. I was content, but as I found myself only able to watch the actions of others, I decided to try to move to another location. I thought about going to Cromer (as in real-life I am planning to view some flats for rent there). I was standing on a residential road which runs parallel to the beach/sea. There is a hotel situated on this road, which is the main coastal route into Cromer. I was standing outside the hotel, with various members of my family across on the other side (closer to the promenade/sea). I had a drink in my hand and I realised that it was carnival time (it seemed to be early evening and although I could not see any carnival floats/persons in fancy dress, there seemed to be a celebratory atmosphere with throngs of people, of all ages, milling about and standing in gatherings, drinking and laughing). I wanted to cross the road to get to my family. I pushed my way through the crowds of party-goers to get to the road-side, but before I could cross, the scene transitioned (beyond my control). Suddenly, I found myself in the Jarrold’s Department Store in Norwich. It was just before Christmas and the store was buzzing with customers, everything brightly lit and decorated with gold, red and green. It was quite dark outside. I was aware my Mum and Nan were somewhere in the store and that we were all taking part in a shopping trip. I saw a make-up counter and decided I wanted to get some free luxury brand make-up, but felt the instant need to pee. Over the tannoy system, a female voice said (in an overjoyed tone): “it’s the ‘90s!’ I was incredibly happy, as I have always vowed to use lucid dreaming to re-live the 1990s, my favourite period of recent cultural history, as the adult ‘me’. However the need to pee was so distracting and I thought to myself: ‘I can’t go to the toilet in the dream in case I wet the bed in real-life’. I concentrated on waking up, disappointed to have to cut my lucid dream short. I woke up, still desperately needing to pee, but in a very dry bed (fortunately)!!!

Analysis of this past dream in a 2019 context

• I have recently made a Dreamhacker video which mentions the Wake-Back-to-Bed method, mnemonics and Vitamin B6 (as well as 5-HTP and REM Rebound Effect)
• Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream refers to a mnemonic I was using at the time to help induce lucidity in a dream - 'ACR'. Bear with me, while I attempt to explain why this appears to be so odd reading this back in 2019 within the context of this current dream. During my conversation with AJR's mum I mentioned 2 women who (for very different reasons) appeared to pose a threat to my relationship with AJR at one point in time. One of them was the woman referred to above in the Additional Notes section, who I will refer to as LPB. The other was a friend of AJR's, NJ - who is now a friend of mine on Facebook. NJ has a son, who I will refer to as 'AC' (this is literally how you pronounce his real name). Therefore, the reference to ACR in Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream (bearing in mind the connection to AJR - who's last name begins with R, and the context in which NJ's son was mentioned) is especially pertinent. Even more pertinent is the reference to the 7-foot woman dressed as a nurse in Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream. LPB is a care assistant and is extremely large - both in height and width. It is a running joke between AJR and I that LPB (who was infatuated with JR) once sent him a photograph of herself wearing a latex naughty nurse's outfit (I have seen this photograph, and without being too negative, it is extremely unpleasant and unsexy, revealing a lot of cleavage and taken from a strange upwards facing angle, which a lot of filter on the face. AJR told me he had recently found this photograph in his paperwork and had destroyed it
• There is nudity referenced in Lucid Dream Report 2 -  The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream - specifically, my naked butt. AJR tells me he likes small boobs and large butts (which is my body type)
• Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream clearly outlines the memory of being in WH Smiths in York Train Station, and seeing the magazine containing the article about Mariah Carey's breakdown
• 2012 is the year in which I randomly dreamed of AJR (during a period in which we had had no contact at all for nearly 6 years, and ostensibly no reason to even think about one another - see STORYTIME: I DREAMED OF THE FUTURE LOVE OF MY LIFE MANY YEARS AGO (EVIDENCE PROVIDED!) and Dream 70 (2 August 2012) - I wonder if the white male dream character who was waiting for me on the train station platform in Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream was actually representative of AJR? This might be somewhat of a stretch, as there were no defining characteristics which would lead me to come to this conclusion - obviously, the thing which would stand out the most would be if the male dream character was a criminal convict/prisoner or wearing the E-list (anti-escape) suit I associated with AJR whenever he randomly popped into my memory (this being the outfit he was wearing when I first met him). In Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream, I was explaining the concept of an orgasm to the male dream character, and it felt like a chore having to speak to him (reminiscent of all the pointless, trivial legal visits AJR had requested of me, when I first met him in 2006/7?) He said his name was 'ACR' - which is strikingly similar to 'AJR'. AJR and I have another running joke about female anatomy - based on some screenshots from social media which I had described to him due to their humorous nature (one was from a webcam model - a Facebook friend - who had posted a screenshot of a webcam chat in which a male customer had said 'your clit's tight' and the other was in a Facebook group, showing a text conversation in which the male participant had referred to the female's 'clickoris') - we had been joking about 'tight clits' and 'clickorises' in our telephone conversation on the night of this current dream. AJR and I had also discussed 'control' and 'doing what we wanted' in a joke context. Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream refers to 'hand of God' and me killing the male dream character -  whenever I say the phrase 'Oh my God', AJR jokes that I should say 'Oh my AJ[R]' - this was said during our telephone conversation on the night of this current dream, and I had also made jokes about killing AJR when he is released from prison (we always joke about violence, as we have a dark sense of humour)

I could analyse this (Lucid Dream Report 2 - The Explanation of an Orgasm Dream) much more, but a lot of what I write would be assumptions or trying to find spurious links between this, the current dream and my real life. However, I am genuinely bemused at how significant some of these links appear to be. 

Dream 1004

'Deaths, Wakes & Favourite Pubs'

Date: 6 July 2019
Scene 1: A Pub, Location Unknown - Day
I think I have forgotten the very start of this very vivid dream, which I had extremely clear recall of when first waking. Not writing it down immediately was a massive mistake and I relied too heavily on my conscious memory.

I was in a pub - my Mum and her former friend and work colleague AB were present and it was clear that both worked in this pub, but it was not the Two Lifeboats Hotel, Sheringham, which is the real life pub we all worked in many years ago. This pub had a bar which faced the entrance/window and I am unsure of the precise location as I did not see outside. The colours dominant in this pub were gold and red and there was a lot of wood and fresh flowers as decor. It was a very aesthetic interior. I was sitting on a bar stool at the bar. My Mum was behind the bar and kept disappearing out the back to the kitchen area, as it was a busy day. There were a number of dream characters - customers of the pub - present. At the bar, I was playing with/looking at a box, which was about the size of a football, but square (I couldn't think of a comparable sized cubed object which could be universally recognised!). This boz was wood and metal and had various asymmetrical details covering it, which I do not remember well enough to describe - or perhaps the object was so dreamlike in quality that it cannot be visualised in real life. I remember thinking it was odd when looking at it in the dream. My Mum came over and took the box, which she said was 'the wake' for a dead customer. In the dream I understood that the box was the wake held after the funeral for the dead person (who I only vaguely knew in the dream). I then said: 'this is my second favourite pub after the one in Maida Vale' (this relates to a pub I used to visit in real life, in around 2010 - 2011 when I was living in London and visiting my former friend from Norwich, EB who was staying with his sister in Maida Vale, London. I have always thought the Maida Vale pub was one of the best I have ever visited, due to it's atmosphere and decor - see below for more details). I then knew I had to leave the pub.

Scene 2: A Teaching Space/Classroom - Time Unknown
I was then in a small room, which resembles a teaching space/classroom I have previously taught in at my university.  In the dream it may or may not have been a location at my university - I did not know it was a classroom in the dream, I just accepted it as a room I was in that did not feel unfamiliar to me. I was sitting at a table, and there was some reference to cannabis, but I cannot recall - maybe I was trying to arrange to buy some? There was also something to do with my Nan - this was significant when I first woke up, remembering the dream, but I can no longer remember what happened at this stage of the dream. I received a telephone call - it wasn't AJR on the phone, but a third-party (I cannot recall who) telling me that AJR was out committing a criminal offence (I cannot recall what it was). It was clear AJR was out of prison from the context of the telephone call, but in my dream mind I thought 'the Parole Board won't care about this because it's not violent' (this is not true). I was unconcerned. I cannot recall what else happened during this part of the dream.

Scene 3: A Pub/Train - Day
I was then back in the pub I had been in before, and knew it was late afternoon because it wasn't as busy as usual. The pub now resembled the carriage of a train, which rows of tables either side of a narrow aisle. I remember thinking it was like a train while in the dream. There was an elderly white female dream character sitting alone, on one of the small round pub tables, which was close to a partition (like those which you walk through on a train to reach the next carriage). I approached the woman, who seemed to know me. I was standing beside her, leaning down so that she could talk to me. I cannot recall much about her appearance, other than she looked scruffy, with oversized clothing and white hair. She handed me the 'wake box' (as seen in Scene 1) and told me this was for me. The handing to me of the wake box symbolised her giving me money, as I knew I could exchange it for other items of monetary value. I immediately thought I could use the wake box to buy some cannabis, but the woman suggested I use it to buy 2 classical music records - she gave me the names of the 2 classical composers who she thought were the best culturally and artistically. In the dream I recognised the name of the composers, but I cannot recall them in real life (it was along the lines of Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky etc). I told the woman that I knew nothing about classical music and was not interested in it. She said something to me like: 'you need to become more cultured'. I agreed with her, but inside knew I would just use the wake box to buy cannabis as planned. 

I then realised that my former boss and friend DT had died and I had forgotten to tell my best friend LD1 (who is a friend of DT). I had a memory within the dream of talking to LD1  on the phone, while in the location of Scene 2 - so when I was in the teaching space/classroom. I knew I had to return to this location in order to call LD1 and tell him about DT's death.

Scene 4: The Classroom - Time Unknown
I then returned to the teaching space/classroom. I could see that now this appeared to be a bus shelter - I was looking through the glass/perspex partition. I also felt as if I was in Sheringham (or somewhere incredibly familiar, looking out at a part of this location, which as an external/outside one - and recognising it as looking exactly as it does in real life. I woke up with a distinct memory of the location and how realistic it was). I phone LD1 and told him DT had died and apologised for forgetting to tell him on the last phone call. LD1 said we had better organise a wake box for the funeral. I did not seem to know/remember or disclose that I had been given a wake box earlier. 

I cannot recall anything else about this dream, but given how vivid it was and how strong my initial recall was upon waking, some of the details may resurface. If I remember anything further about this dream, I will record it below.

Additional Notes:

• This dream took place within the 24 hours I was attempting Quickshot Dream Incubations | QDI#2 (see my introductory article - Quickshot Dream Incubations | QDI#1 and my video for QDI#2, below) - I had no success! Stay tuned for QDI#3!
• Some investigation revealed the pub in Maida Vale I was recalling was The Warrington Hotel (see images, below)

AJR's Dream

On the evening of 5 July 2019, I had a telephone conversation with AJR where I told him about the dream I had (same date) from my sleep the night before - Dream 1003 - 'Amalgamaze'. 

AJR has never shown any real interest in dreams - he usually just humours my 'weird' interest in them. He has said that he has experienced some lucid dreams in the past, but rarely tends to dream at all. I have told him that it is not that he does not dream, but rather than he has poor dream recall. 

AJR was excited to tell me that the previous night (so either 4 or 5 July) he had woken up from a dream and remembered having it. He did not want to get out of bed and put on the light to find a pen and paper, so just repeated the dream over and over in his mind to consolidate the memory so that he could tell me about it when we next spoke (this is a technique I often use, with varied results). I did not contemporaneously record AJR talking to me about his dream, as I was not prepared for this while on the phone (calls from prison landlines are expensive and time-limited, so I did not want to stop the conversation to then get my mobile phone for voice recording etc). Therefore this account of AJR's dream is from what I remember from our conversation, as close to how he described it as possible. 

AJR said the dream was set in a time in the future. He referenced a movie which he thought starred Sylvester Stallone, who got 'frozen' and woken up in the future, where society is different. AJR could not recall the movie or if he had recalled it properly. He could not describe the state of the society other than it was authoritarian and oppressive (he did not use those words, he used synonyms, but I have a clear recollection of what he meant). He said me and him existed in this future. We were in some kind of large building and I left - someone informed him I had left. He said I had not really left - then said, I had left, but it was really an ambush for him. He was worried for my safety having left the building alone, so he went to follow me. Then he was ambushed. He said a group of men jumped on him and began beating him violently. He was tasered in the back. He was unable to move or fight the men off and felt the shock of the taser repeatedly. When the men stopped beating him, he was laying on the ground, frozen and unable to move at all. He said he could not get up. The taser was still in him (I think he said it was sticking into his back) and still shocking him repeatedly. He could feel the pain in the dream. He said while he was laying there, unable to move, it felt like days passed in the dream, but could not describe this (I know what this dream time passing feels like). Eventually he was able to get up and move. He spoke to a man (I cannot recall how he described this man). AJR asked where I was, worried about my safety. The man was mocking him. He told AJR that I had been tasered too - and had 'screamed like a bitch'. He then made some comment about my ass (AJR's favourite physical feature). AJR pretended to accept the comment and walked away, but this was a trick. He wanted to seek revenge on the man for hurting an disrespecting me, and also for how he talked about me to AJR (who referred to me as 'his missus'). AJR then secretly got a large knife, which he used to stab the man who had been mocking him.

• Having done some research into the movie AJR was referring to, it appears he is thinking of Demolition Man (1996), which does in fact star Sylvester Stallone
• I had wondered if this dream was about AJR being released from prison - he did not seem to think the dream was related to prison, but rather avenging my honour. However, having read the synopsis of Demolition Man, it appears that the movie did influence AJR's dream more than he perhaps appreciated (given he only had a vague memory of the movie and wasn't entirely sure he'd remembered it correctly). I have included the plot synopsis below - and cannot wait to tell AJR what I discovered about the movie which influenced his dreams in more ways than he was aware of:

In 1996, psychopathic career criminal Simon Phoenix kidnaps a number of hostages, and takes refuge with his gang in an abandoned building. LAPD Sgt. John Spartan uses a thermal scan of the building; finding no trace of the hostages, he leads an unauthorized assault to capture Phoenix. Phoenix sets off a series of explosives that demolish the building, and the hostages’ corpses are found in the rubble; Phoenix claims Spartan knew about the hostages and attacked anyway. Both men are incarcerated in the city's new "California Cryo-Penitentiary", where they are cryogenically frozen and exposed to subliminal rehabilitation techniques.

In 2032, Phoenix is thawed for a parole hearing and he escapes. Lieutenant Lenina Huxley has Spartan thawed to help stop Phoenix. She explains to Spartan that San Angeles - a metropolis that combines the former Los Angeles, San Diego, and Santa Barbara - is a peaceful utopia, and the police are no longer equipped to deal with violent crime. Spartan finds the new future depressing and oppressive; human behavior is tightly controlled, physical contact and swearing are illegal, and anything else deemed 'bad' is also banned. Likewise, others on the police force find Spartan's behavior brutish and uncivilized.

Spartan anticipates that Phoenix will attempt to secure firearms. He and Huxley head to a museum and find Phoenix already there. Phoenix escapes with the weapons and encounters Dr. Raymond Cocteau, the evangelistic pseudo-pacifist who has been running San Angeles since the 'Great Earthquake' of 2010. To his confusion, Phoenix finds that he is unable to shoot Cocteau, who reveals that he had orchestrated Phoenix's escape all along. As a safety measure, Cocteau implanted a command that prevents Phoenix from harming him. Cocteau wants Phoenix to assassinate Edgar Friendly, the leader of a resistance group called the Scraps that resists his rule.

Spartan and Huxley witness this exchange on security cameras and review the cryo-prison records. To their shock, they find that Phoenix's rehabilitation program has been replaced with combat training programs and the information necessary for his escape. Spartan meets with the Scraps in time to ward off an attack by Phoenix and other criminals who have been thawed out of cryo-sleep to help assassinate Friendly. Phoenix taunts Spartan, revealing that he had killed the 1996 hostages before setting off the bomb, meaning Spartan has spent 36 years in prison for no reason. Phoenix escapes, and Spartan arms himself with help from the Scraps.

Phoenix returns to Dr. Cocteau with his men, and has one of them kill Cocteau. They return to the cryo-prison and begin to thaw out more convicts. Spartan enters the prison alone to fight Phoenix, heavily damaging the facility in the process; he uses the cryogenic chemical to freeze and kill Phoenix. Spartan escapes the prison as it explodes. The police fear that the loss of Cocteau and the cryo-prison will end society as they know it, but Spartan suggests that they and the Scraps work together to combine the best aspects of order and personal freedom. He then kisses Huxley and the two go off together.

• AJR is facing a Parole Hearing next week after serving 16 years in prison on an IPP sentence, which is considered to be an unjust and inhumane sentence, abolished in 2012
• I have been telling AJR about changes in society since he has been in prison - especially the rise of political correctness. AJR will also be under strict licence conditions upon release, which prevent him from certain conduct which does not pass the threshold of unlawful

What do you think about AJR's dream? Do you think it reflects his anxieties about leaving prison and being released into a society which had changed drastically? 

Dream 1003

'Amalgamaze'

Date: 5 July 2019
Scene 1: A Science Lab - Time Unknown
I was in a science lab, waiting for AJR - I cannot give a proper description of the science lab, other than it appeared t be pretty empty and the lights had a yellow tinge to them. The walls were shiny white and everything seemed clean and sterile. I cannot recall much of what happened while I was waiting for AJR. He eventually approached me - dressed in a white lab coat. He was holding some papers and something I only recall as being red in colour. AJR told me that he was trying to calculate the meaning of 'amalgamaze'. I did not know what this meant and in my mind thought it was something to do with science as we were in a science lab. There was some time where AJR and I were then apart, because he left to work on the 'amalgamaze'. I cannot recall what happened in this part of the dream. 

I was then looking at some big tanks of water which appeared to be large, steel bath tubs. I am not sure if this was still in the science lab or not. I cannot recall many details about this part of the dream other than just standing and looking. AJR approached me again. He said he had done some maths and realised that 'amalgamaze' was an error and he had meant 'amalgamation'. He told me that he had worked out the meaning of 'amalgamation' and could now finish work for the day, which made me happy because I spend time with him.

Additional Notes:

• This dream took place after me recording and uploading Quickshot Dream Incubations | QDI#2 (see my introductory article - Quickshot Dream Incubations | QDI#1 and my video for QDI#1, below) - However, at the time I had this dream (early hours of the morning on 5 July 2019), I had not yet begun QDI#2 - I include it below as this was the next Quickshot Dream Incubation Experiment
• The day after this dream I had a conversation on the telephone with AJR where I told him about this dream - I transcribed the following conversation (my dialogue is not verbatim, but AJR's responses are, as I contemporaneously recorded them for you):

Me: OK, before I tell you about the dream I want to ask you whether you know what a certain word means

AJR: OK

Me: Amalgamation

AJR: No, I've never heard that word in my life, what does it mean?

Me: [provides a basic definition of the word 'amalgamation' from memory, stating it means combining or mixing different things together] - then describes the dream to AJR

AJR: Why are you trying to turn it ['amalgamaze'] into mayonnaise? Why are you doing this to me? [then tells me he is too triggered to even eat mayonnaise anymore and feels bullied]

* Note that my nickname for AJR is 'Mayonnaise' or 'AJonnaise', hence why he perceived the word 'amalgamaze' in this way. I have Googled the word and found that there are various companies called Amalgamaze, which I was not aware of prior to this dream. In my memory I have never heard this word before. In the dream I did not associate the word with mayonnaise

Dream 1002

'Llamastriches'

Date: 4 July 2019
Scene 1: 'New York City', USA - Day
I cannot recall the beginning of this dream, other than it involved some form of educational establishment/institution and me doing exams or receiving exam results and not being pleased. 

The only part of this dream that I recall in detail occurred in a city location, which in the dream I thought was NYC, because my online friend, SS was present - and he lives in NYC. I had gone to visit him. The location was reminiscent of a city like NYC - I could see tall buildings and a very wide street, which had an intersection with traffic lights and a pedestrian crossing. I was standing on one side of the road and I could see a number of tall red brick buildings opposite, as well as a row of terraced houses, which looked out of place in the urban environment - they resembled those you might see in a suburban British town, with a small gated garden at the front. I could see my family members - my Mum and Nan and a couple of other (unrecalled) relatives standing in the small garden outside one of the houses opposite - they were waving at me. SS came walking down the centre of the street towards me, approaching from my right side. I then realised that next to me was a row of animals which were a composite of llamas and ostriches - this felt normal within the dream. These animals were approximately the size of both the llama and the ostrich and had a greyish-brown fur body (I have actually found an image online which closely resembles what I saw in my dream). SS approached the llamastriches (this is not the name that was used in the dream - I cannot recall if I knew the name of these animals) and began to stroke one of them. I was watching him and also looking across at my family. 

I cannot recall anything else about this dream.

Additional Notes:

• The day before this dream I had been looking through the files of images on my laptop and had seen some of the photos SS had previously sent me
• Near my home there are a couple of (iron?) metal sculptures which look like stylised brains on long thin legs - other people have commented that they thought they were ostriches with only the body and legs depicted. I walked past these sculptures on the day of this dream (see images below - I went to visit these sculptures to make a photograph for you)
• This dream took place after my launch of the Quickshot Dream Incubation Experiments (see video below for QDI#1, and my introductory article - Quickshot Dream Incubations | QDI#1) - this was not successful. However, it is worth noting that these sculptures are located at the edge of the lake which is featured in the dream trigger for QDI#1

Quickshot Dream Incubations | QDI#1

I am starting a new series of very quick 24-hour dream incubation experiments. The concept is that I regularly choose a thing - a location/place, object or person and then film a short video, uploaded onto my Youtube channel (see below where I have embedded the video for your ease of watching!) I give myself just 24 hours to see if my chosen/recorded 'thing' appears in my dreams. I then record my results, both on this Blog, and on my next Quickshot Dream Incubation Experiment video. 

Perhaps you might like to try this challenge yourself - watch my video and see if you can incubate a dream using the thing you see! Let me know your results! 💗

Dream 1001

'Post-Programme Review'

Date: 2 July 2019
Scene 1: An Entrance - Day
I cannot recall the very start of this dream, but there was some action/narrative which I think I have forgotten, as this dream seemed much longer and more detailed/vivid when I first woke up and tried to recall it (I did not write it down immediately as I was awoken by someone ringing my doorbell, so this distracted me and disrupted my dream recall). I was aware that myself and a number of peers (these later seemed to be former students I attended high school with) were undergoing some sort of 'post-programme' review - it appeared to be a review of our progress on a course we had just completed. I was standing under an arched gateway, which was near the entrance to the building we were about to enter. I could see the sky above us was cloudy. We were standing in a line, and I turned to the female dream character beside me (I cannot recall who it was, but she was familiar to me in the dream and in real life) and said words to the effect of (I cannot quote myself verbatim here, but I know the gist of the sentence as it was a joke I felt very clever for making): 'there's no point in doing a 15 minute review, I could have masturbate for 15 minutes and that includes the time it takes to find some pornography'. For some reason, I thought this was the funniest thing ever and this joke made perfect sense.  I knew the review would take 15 minutes as we were reviewing 'the previous month' and this was the standard time (I am not sure what this meant, I just knew 1 month programme = 15 minute review). The queue of people awaiting the 'post-programme review' were finally allowed to enter the building, which appeared to be some kind of educational institution (a school or college). 

Scene 2: A Classroom - Day
The post-programme review was actually a First Aid demonstration, involving one person sitting down on the floor and another person rubbing their bare shins with their hands. I sat on the floor, while SHLL (a composite of 2 girls I went to school with - both with the same first name and initial of their last name - this dream character was a mixture of both in the dream) rubbed my legs. The class (our peers) watched this happen, from a semi-circle of chairs a few meters away. I felt annoyed because this was a waste of my time and I thought it was all pointless. 

Scene 3: A Train Carriage - Day
I was then on a train, standing up as it was travelling. I cannot recall anything further about this scene or the dream at all. 

Additional Notes:

• In my line of work, there is such a thing as a 'post-programme review' for prisoners completing courses/programmes
• The day before this dream I had been discussing appraisals and how the ongoing performance of me and my colleagues in my welfare job on campus would be reviewed every month with my friend LD1 - we both agreed this would be pointless and a waste of time
• I had been discussing former school peers with my Mum a couple of days before this dream
• My Mum and I had specifically discussed SH1 and SH2 - the 2 girls from my high school. My Mum had mentioned someone with the first name 'S' and then asked if I remembered the last name, which began with 'H' - I had named both SH1 and SH2
• AJR told me he had been diagnosed with 'shin splints' (from running) a couple of days before this dream
• I had travelled back from Sheringham on the train a couple of days before this dream

Dream 1000

'Choosing the Love of My Life in a Dream'

Date: 30 June 2019
Scene 1: An Unknown Interior - Time Unknown
I was in an interior environment with my ex-boyfriend PS. I cannot recall much about the location of the dream, other than it felt very 'fairytale' - there was some wood and some plants. There was also a bed. I recognised PS was being very weird with me - quiet and vague, as if his mind was elsewhere, or he did not want to be with me. I decided I needed to ask him, and he reassured me he did want to be with me. I was stressed. I noticed PS was wearing a leather belt with some kind of white studs on it - not the style I would associate with him in real life. Although I did not pick up on it in the dream, his jeans were higher up towards his waist - he used to wear them very low, below his butt cheeks. There was something (unrecalled in detail) about a blonde woman who I felt jealous of, as if she was my rival for PS' affections - I am not sure if she appeared in the dream in person, or whether I was just thinking about her. This part of the dream was unclear. I was laying on the bed and PS tried to mount me in the missionary position, while undoing his belt. I then moved away from him, which made him angry with me, because I was avoiding physical contact with him. I said that we should go for a walk. 

Scene 2: A Street - Day
PS and I were then outside, walking, with N the Dog beside us. We were on a city street and it was very overcast - this is something I specifically remember noticing in the dream. I am not sure if I noticed any other dream characters in this outside location, but I do remember seeing tall red brick walls to my right, at a point where it felt like I was standing in front of PS, facing him, rather than standing beside him. It was as if we were in some backlot or wide passageway behind buildings at this point. We were arguing. I cannot recall the specifics of the argument, but it was clear that it was about our relationship and the way we were not getting on. PS told me he needed to go and make a video and he would be leaving me by myself (this was something that used to happen in real life at times, when I was living with PS in London, around the time I began this Blog). 

I was walking alone in the city and I came to a shop window display. I knew it was night now, suddenly, because the window display was illuminated against the dark of the street. I did not think it was odd that the time had changed so rapidly. I am still not sure if there were other dream characters present, but this was a main street. The shop window was displaying diamonds - of all sizes, from very small (which would fit in a modest ring) to huge ones, the size of tennis balls, or perhaps a little larger. The rest of the display seemed to be white and glass, but I cannot recall many details. The window was on a corner of the building, so it had an edge and 2 sides. I was impressed by the beautiful display of diamonds, but not as much as I would in real life - it seemed almost ordinary in the dream. 

A car then pulled up and I got into it, as if it was what I was intended to do - although I do not recall how I knew it was OK for me to get in the car. It was dark - perhaps black or navy, grey etc. The back of the car had a partition between whoever the driver was and those sitting in the back - like a limousine or a taxi. RBA was sitting with his back to the driver, in a rear-facing seat. He was wearing a pair of large aviator shades, with very reflective silver-blue mirrored lenses. I cannot recall what else he was wearing in this dream. I sat opposite him, in the front-facing seat. RBA told me he was in the middle of a weed deal and he was delivering a large quantity of cannabis in a black bin bag to someone on this street (he may have said who, but I cannot recall). I then remember looking out of the car window, to my right (weirdly, I have realised that, because of the way the car approached me (from the right) and how I got into the back seat, behind the right-side driver, this means the car had been driving on the wrong side of the road for the UK). Now it was daylight - and sunny. Again, I did not find this odd. The diamond shop window display should have been right in my field of vision, as we had not driven anywhere at all and had remained parked on the curbside. Everything had a yellow tinge to it, maybe from the sunshine. The shop was now selling 'Oombies', which were small, knitted spheres, the size of pool balls, in a variety of colours. I knew what they were because they were a popular thing - a trend. The outside of the Oombie shop looked like it was made of sandstone and belonged at the seaside. The large window display was gone, and there was a small serving hatch, with a striped sunshade on it, which again looked like it belonged at the seaside. 

RBA told me to try on his sunglasses. I did - and when I looked at my reflection (not sure how I saw myself, as it just seemed as if a mirror popped up in front of me as soon as I tried the sunglasses on). My face was bright red and flushed - I noticed this as being odd in the dream. RBA said: 'they don't suit you' and I agreed with him. He began to exit the car to head into the the Oombie shop, with his black bin bag of cannabis. 

Scene 3: A Bedsit - Day
I then found myself round the back of some buildings, and I knew that I was near to the sea, although I cannot recall if I ever knew what town/city I was in. The sun was shining. The back of the buildings were very rundown - with a lot of rubbish/litter on the ground. The walls of the building I was standing in front of were white and peeling/cracked (looking back on this with hindsight, this was very much reminiscent of Seacliff (aka 'Salty Towers'), a building containing bedsits, on the clifftops of Sheringham (which I happened to refer to in conversation a couple of days before this dream - see below images for reference). However, I do not think I was actually in Sheringham in this dream. This was definitely the back entrance to the property, as I knew it was a block of flats/bedsits and that I was not going in the front entrance. I entered and the building was dark inside and felt either old or unclean, or both. There were doors going off the corridor, and then concrete stairs/steps up to the next floor. I cannot recall any furnishings/decor in this place. I went up one flight of stairs, which curved round. On the first floor, it was similar to the ground floor, but I knew which door to approach. I entered as it was unlocked. I was in a bedsit - it was furnished in a typical way - no specific details stand out in my mind, other than there was definitely a bed and an armchair in the same room, that everything looked old-fashioned or retro in a way I cannot describe, and that the curtains were letting sunlight stream into the room from between the holes in the fabric (blue/green?) AJR was in the room - he was standing by the window, with his back to me. When I came into the room, he turned around. I was there to tell him that I had chosen to be with him, and it appeared that this had been a decision I had always had to make (i.e. within the dream it was not a spur of the moment thing, or as spontaneous as the dream narrative makes it seem), because AJR said to me that he had been waiting for me to make up my mind since I'd come home - the implication being I'd been in a foreign country (I have no idea where, it was just clear to me in the dream that I had been somewhere and that it was overseas - in real life I do not travel and have not travelled since 2005/6 time when I went to Amsterdam for the weekend with my ex-boyfriend HL, prior to my relationship with PS). AJR told me we were going to eat lobster for breakfast, which made me pleased (breakfast appeared to be the next meal, which is in keeping with the weird time skips in this dream). He said we should walk 'down to the traffic lights' to go and collect the fresh lobsters from the fishermen. At this stage - and I recall this clearly - I noticed AJR was wearing blue and white checked tracksuit bottoms (see below image - with hindsight, they resembled chef's trousers, as pictured, due to this being the exact same design I saw in my dream) and a blue T-shirt. I know I only just noticed this, because within the dream I thought it was odd that I'd never seen him wear a blue T-shirt before now (I don't think I have! Maybe I've noticed a blue T-shirt worn under the HMP Wayland regulation shirt).

I cannot recall anything else about this dream.

Additional Notes:

• THIS IS DREAM 1000! To celebrate, I will record a Youtube video (with a direct quote from AJR about this dream) and do a detailed dream analysis/interpretation separately from this post - therefore I will comment on specific/particular dream residue events/real life influences in that post, rather than here
• I am so pleased that Dream 1000 seems (on the surface level at least) to have some kind of significance. I had been having trouble remembering dreams which would be recorded as Dream 999 and Dream 1000 - maybe because I was placing so much emphasis on them, and perhaps because I was smoking some cannabis at this time, which has a negative impact on dreaming/dream recall (until you experience the REM Rebound Effect -  click here for an explanation of this phenomena and also click here for an article on the effect of cannabis on dreaming). This dream happened to take place during a short period in which I had not smoked any cannabis, making the REM Rebound Effect a possibility. I had also taken a Vitamin B Complex pill, which, contains Vitamin B6, which is known to have a positive effect on dream recall (I started taking the vitamins 2 days before this dream took place)
• Of course, this dream appears to be very significant due to me 'choosing' AJR over PS. It is also worth noting that I first started dating PS shortly before I met AJR 11-12 years ago - it would have been during the first 6 - 8 months of my relationship, because I had not yet moved to London with PS, and therefore left my law firm, through which I met AJR. I also first met RBA around that time - I knew of him from online (he was/is a successful battle rapper) - I first met him in person at the same time I started dating PS, this being around the same time I met AJR. The fact the dream characters and narrative of this dream all have some contemporaneous link within my real life makes it appear more significant, if that makes sense. I will analyse/interpret this dream more thoroughly in due course. Meanwhile, check out these posts which explain my relationship with AJR and strange dream phenomena surrounding my relationship with him:

• STORYTIME: I DREAMED OF THE FUTURE LOVE OF MY LIFE, MANY YEARS AGO (EVIDENCE PROVIDED!)
• Lucid Dream Phenomena - Telepathic Boyfriend?
• Love on Lockdown | A Very Candid Insight into Tallulah La Ghash 
• Dream 998 - 'My Dream Town Becomes Victorian' - I'm linking this dream record because at the bottom of this post there is a list of previous dreams which involve my 'Dream Town' - a location which exists as a recurrent symbol/theme throughout my dreams over the years. This post also explains a potential anomaly between the name of this 'Dream Town' and my relationship with AJR - the name of my 'Dream Town' (which I had investigated and questioned in the past) is pretty much that of the nearest town to where AJR will be living when he first comes out of prison. I am hoping to do a through investigation into my 'Dream Town' dreams at some stage, so I will address this there, too. However, I felt it was worth highlighting this ominous aspect of my dreams since it felt significant to me

The following conversation took place during a telephone conversation with AJR, a few days after this dream. I had previously told him the content of Dream 1000, and during this subsequent telephone conversation I asked for his impressions/reactions so that I could put it on record. I transcribed this conversation verbatim during the conversation:

Me: What do you think about Dream 1000?

AJR: I can't remember it. I remember you telling me, but not the details

[I tell AJR the content of Dream 1000 again]

AJR: OK, you want a quote. I wish you'd stayed with him [my ex-boyfriend, PS] for fuck sake!

Me: You can't say that or I'll get demonetised!

AJR: Oh the phone beeped [indicating the phone call is about to time out, after approximately 20 minutes per call] Saved by the bell! I love it when that happens!

The following part of our conversation was not transcribed, so I am recounting it in my own words. When I described the outfit that AJR was wearing, and pointed out I had never seen him wear a blue T-shirt before, he said that he was wearing a blue T-shirt at that very moment - and blue and white shorts (striped).

Dream 999

'An Unwanted Holiday'

Date: 26 June 2019
Scene 1: An Unknown Interior - Day
I was supposed to be travelling somewhere, by airplane, and I did not want to go. I am not sure where I was supposed to be going. I was in an unknown interior, which I knew was in a familiar location. My Mum's friend, CC was present, although I was not happy about this. Someone in the background (I cannot remember seeing them) was playing piano, which was annoying me, because it was unwanted/a distraction to me while I was feeling stressed about the unwanted holiday or travel. CC came over to me in a rather patronising or condescending manner - she was leaning over me as if she was much taller than me, and looking down on me. She said: 'you can go to Sudsbury/Sudbury and visit the freezer shop'. This is my 'Dream Town' - see below - but I am not sure if I recognised this fact in the dream. I was not lucid i.e. consciously aware I was dreaming, and therefore did not associate this town name with dreaming or memories from dreams, but within this dream I did know that Sudsbury is somewhere familiar to me. CC was smirking at me and I knew she was trying to deceive me in some way. 

I noticed there was a cabinet along one wall of the room we were in, which seemed quite empty of decor or furniture (as in I did not recall anything in my surroundings). The cabinet/perfume was lit up and resembled a high-end/luxury cosmetics counter. There were some rectangular gold items (about the size of house bricks) behind the illuminated glass at the front of the long, waist-high cabinet, but I am not sure what they were. 

Scene 2: Sheringham High Street - Day
I was then walking down Sheringham High Street with my cousin HM, although I cannot recall many details about this scene, other than it was a hot sunny day and the high street was busy.

Scene 3: A Field of Mud Pools - Day
I was then in the location I was supposed to be travelling to. I am not sure if I was alone. I was sitting in a field, in the sun. The field was full of mud and had hundreds of small pools of muddy water - stretched for as far as the eye could see. I was sitting in one of the pools and felt refreshed. Some small white goats (a herd) began to wander over to me. I felt happy and content. I am not sure if this location was in my 'Dream Town' as it was not a specific realisation I recall having in this dream.

Additional Notes:

• This dream referred to my 'Dream Town' - it may be the result of day residue, as my most recently recalled dream - Dream 998 - 'My Dream Town Becomes Victorian' took place in this location and I had been discussing it with people in my real life - in terms of it being a strange dream phenomena, which has recently become significant in my waking life and relationship with AJR
• The reference to the 'freezer shop' relates to a specific place in my Dream Town, which I have found cited in 2 previous dreams at least (there may be more) - these are Dream 18 (20 December 2011) and Dream 84 (20 September 2012) - again, this might be a result of day residue, as  I had done a full search of all 'Dream Town' dreams I had recorded on my Blog so that I could link them in my record of Dream 998 - 'My Dream Town Becomes Victorian'
