Lucid Nap Dream of the Day...
(I'm frantically trying to write this down cuz this is one of the most lucid dreams I've had in a long while...so please ignore the brevity and the horrible grammar and spelling...I'm still very tired and sleepy...half man...half awake...)

I was talking to Stan via email...doing our usual idle banter...he was telling me to turn off my html cuz it was messing up his linux email reader...I wished him happy bday...cuz it was June 21st...first day of summer...I also told him that I wasn't going camping anymore...and was going to tell Garry about it...

Before I told Garry I decided I was going to take a nap...took a nap...and woke up to thunder and rain...the sky was completely black...I packed up to go to school...Tom was picking me up in a short while...on the way to school it kept raining and thundering...and my right arm was aching...

I looked at my right arm and it was all dark purple and throbbing...the discolouration started at my shoulder and seemed to be spreading down towards my hand...and it looked like the blood in my blood vessels had stopped in their tracks and solidified...I couldn't even recognize my arm...It looked as if it was diseased...as I continued staring at my arm I glanced over at my watch...saw the date "June 16th"...

Looked over at tom in a state of panic and said..."What day is it?"...he said..."June 16th"...I said..."Holy fuck tom...I was just telling Stan Happy Bday today and it was June 21st"..."I'VE SOMEHOW GONE BACK 5 DAYS IN TIME!!"...he acts completely indifferent to that fact and says my hand looks really sick...and tells me not to touch him with my diseased hand...then he tells me he's got to meet Claire and Angela in a bit and can't drop me off so I can get my arm checked out...

We reach the school and he tells me to go get the hand checked out...I look at my hand as I get out of his car...walking towards Sheridan College I'm staring at my hand and it's pouring rain...and still in shock thinking to myself..."fuck...I just went back in time 5 days"...still confused I remember thinking to myself..."this can't be right...where am I??"...

Then I had a sudden realization that I was in a dream...and Tom was acting indifferent and weird cuz he's a fuckin dream character...I look around me one last time...stared at my arm again...and then tried to wake up...totally futile...then I hear this loud bang...it wasn't thunder...it was my sister dropping something in the bathroom...

I sit up and look at my watch...it's now June 21st again...my right arm is throbbing and tingling but not discoloured dark purple...I had been sleeping on it...and outside it really is thundering and raining...
