of food and the 7 Up and milk. I drink the 7 Up telling myself
it is my "phase potion."
I should have deepened further once again since my lack
of control over my refrigerator items and general groggy state
showed a very weak phase.
I continue my plan of action by going outside to our
garden. When I step outside, my vision goes away. I'd never
lost vision before in the phase. I then begin rubbing my hands
and try to deepen, but I am so groggy and the phase is so
weak I am already close to exiting into sleep like I do all too
often.
In the end I do restore vision, but now it isn't as realistic
as it normally is. It is nowhere near real life.
I walk to one of my grapevines and make it grow out the
full year’s growth and produce ripe fruit. The fruit is very
sickly looking and tasteless. This lack of control should have
signaled me to deepen, but I continue on.
Suddenly, I'm not in my yard. I am in a random place
with two people I know from my past. They are talking to me.
I have almost entirely lost lucidity and no longer have
control over my phase. We are by a pool and one friend
throws the other in. This is very dream-like and not very
lucid, but I do have a little lucidity.
I do find a tree that looks like my chokecherry and it has
mature fruit. I take a berry and eat it. Unlike the grapes, it
tastes just like a chokecherry, which is to say it tastes very
bitter and awful. I start spitting it out everywhere and
thinking, "why would I taste this and not my grapes, this is
awful, but my grapes are awesome!"
Then I return to my body. It is now 8 AM (M.R.: no reentering). My memory of the entire experience is somewhat
diminished. I am fairly certain I had slipped into a complete
dream state somewhere in there because it didn't quite feel
completely real like a normal phase experience should.

I had a regular separation, but no vision. I felt around,
but the furniture I felt wasn't my furniture. I thought it would
