Well I did this last night. Doing the before-bed prep I think helped me focus on lucid dreaming for the night.

No lucids, but my sleep was a bit lighter than usual, which is good on the one hand (the night felt *long*), for example, I woke up and thought "well crap, no recall!? This sucks" then I checked the time and it was only about 4 hrs into the night

I *did* have a shock (maybe monkey?) moment: my first dream I recall, early in the night, very short, I was walking in what I thought was my bedroom, and there was a very very loud electrical "POP!" sound like a lightbulb burning out, which shocked me awake (at least I think I was awake, may have been FA?). That may have been the PM mechanism trying to urge me to get lucid. It was similar in feeling to the "BANG" dream I had a month ago but in that one I managed to stay asleep and got lucid.

I had some detailed dreams towards morning, usual for me, but recall of them was a bit below typical detail levels. I *almost* flew in one of them, which was one of my dream signs I established in part A. Whenever I am located in a dream in a high place or located near a valley or tall descent, I have the urge to step out into it and launch myself into flying/gliding out over it. But this time I told myself "I wouldn't have the energy to climb back up to the top" so I didn't. Doh!
