      Ok, so it has been about a week since I initiated this approach. While I have not kept up the initial level of meta awareness, but I have made reality checks a routine part of my life despite incorporating day dreaming back into my life. The day dreaming I think thus far has really made a difference in reducing my stress level. I cannot believe I had forgotten how important day dreaming is to my sanity, and how long it took me to realize that day dreaming had been missing in my life during this time of high stress. I should have been more aware of that since this is not the first time this has happened to me, and I had discovered the importance of my day dreaming years ago. Apparently I am much more comfortable with myself if I spend at least part of the day imagining I am a male vampire for example - go figure. Whatever works to reduce my stress, and yes, this complicates my self awareness a bit, but not too much, since I am never really confused about not actually being a male vampire in waking life.

      Anyway, tonight I will realize that I am dreaming and I shall remember my lucid dream. It is time to do so. My awareness is up, my stress is down, and it is Friday night and I can sleep in tomorrow. The timing is perfect. The psychology is here: I will realize I am dreaming; I will realize that I am dreaming; I will realize I am dreaming, and I will remember my lucid dream. The chemistry is now much better thanks to stress reduction. No more excuses: there is no reason not to have a lucid dream tonight.

      PS: Oh, and since I am going to have a lucid dream tonight I should also plan on what I will do with it. I was to do the task of the month, and taste something. And then I want to fly.
