As I said before, I'm still having this issue where I'm randomly waking up during the night for no apparent reason. I flipped over the mattress yesterday, hoping this might help somewhat, but it didn't. This morning, I woke up around 5:something.
However, it seems that I did go back to sleep at least enough to have a dream that I remembered. For some reason, it involved me playing ice hockey. Full disclosure: I have never in my life played hockey, ice or otherwise. I don't think I have ever even watched a full game of hockey, aside from maybe news sports highlight reels or Youtube videos of fights or something. Heck, I haven't even played a full game in an ice hockey video game, for that matter. (Best I can remember is playing maybe a few minutes of Blades of Steel on the NES, but only long enough to get into a fight. I had no interest in the actual hockey part of it.)
So, anyway, ice hockey. In the dream, we were playing against this super amazing team that had never been beaten before. They were around 20-30 points (or whatever you call them in hockey) ahead and we hadn't even been playing for more than a few minutes. We, of course, had yet to score at all. The weird thing was that obstacles keep appearing in the rink. In fact, it seemed less like a rink and more like just a supermarket warehouse that had had the floors iced, and the shelving and such were being put back mid-game.
At one point, I was just standing next to our goalie and we were talking about how this sucked so much, and that there wasn't much point to even keep playing. It was at this point that I apparently decided that if I was going to be dreaming about playing ice hockey, I was at least going to win. So, first thing to do was to get rid of all the obstacles on the rink. And then we started winning. To do so, we had to start using some crazy time ninja magic, but we started winning.
So, yeah, I apparently became lucid enough to allow myself to win at ice hockey, even if it did require using crazy super-speed and time manipulation magic, but I wasn't lucid enough to say "What the heck am I doing wasting my time playing ice hockey when there are so many cooler things I could be doing?"
This isn't the first time that I've used weird time powers in a dream after it became partially lucid, either. Nor, strangely, was it even the first such dream to involve a giant retail warehouse kind of thing, either. >_>;
