512-OB: Rubbed Singapore sofa

 

3.42 am

Did mindful breathe relax technique, Reminders - this is a dream - not real - will pass.

In Singapore, in Adrian’s apartment. Lying on my right side, I felt the familiar phase state and thought, “This is it. Let’s do the exit technique.”

I rubbed my fingers together, rubbed my hands, and immediately felt that characteristic rubbery sensation.

Then I rubbed the surface of the bed with both hands, rolled over, and stood up on the floor beside the bed.

I moved to the left and rubbed the surface of the window, continuing to rub all the way to the door. As I walked, I kept rubbing the walls and sides.

When I reached the door, I tapped the wall and door firmly with my hands a few times, then yanked the door open roughly.

I expected to see something—but it was still dark, though objects were faintly visible.

I tried to look at my hands to draw in color.

After stepping through the bedroom door, I suddenly saw rich, thick color—like a developing Polaroid picture.

Then objects appeared: a sofa, some kind of glove-shaped sofa.

I reached out and tried to rub it with my hands. The dream faded.
