      Lost track of number of times I questioned reality today, but it was at least eight times. None of them connected to doors but that's ok. I did catch myself at some weird illogical rationalizing for why something is or is not likely a dream, I was thinking something along the lines of that something was just the sort of thing I usually do and in dreams usually reality follows one's expectations, so in dreams I would expect myself to do what I usually do. Luckily, my next thought was, nonsense, how would that differentiate waking and dream life: in both I am likely to do what I usually do and expect myself to do so. What I did not think next but should have: ah, but in dreams I am likely to do weird rationalizing, and this is very weird rationalizing, therefore need to suspect that this is a dream. Anyway, it was not, it was waking nonsensical rationalizing, which I luckily caught.
