Managed to break my loooong dry spell last night with a WILD, but I had a hard time getting there!

I woke naturally at about 03:30 and then tried to WILD on my back. I have always really struggled to get to sleep like this, but decided I would stick at it.
I find that if I try to WILD on my side I go to sleep too quickly, and on my back I can't get to sleep at all!
After two hours I was still not asleep, and although I had not been wide awake, I seemed a long way from transitioning.
But in the next half hour I started to finally feel more drowsy, and then suddenly I was in a vivid dream scene. After a few seconds, always knowing for sure that I was dreaming, I remembered to do a RC, but I couldn't breathe through my pinched nose, even so, it didn't feel right (I have had this type of fail before). I tried again and still it didn't work completely, but I was definitely blocking my nose and able to breathe slightly, so I just carried on in the dream (next time I must do another test as well!)
I had about a minute looking around this toy shop / warehouse before the dream faded and transitioned to another scene. A short while later I decided to try flying into the air, and did for a few seconds, but then the scene went all pixelated and the dream faded.
I was able to DEILD back in, but it turned into a non-lucid.

I'm not sure that this WILD technique is a good idea because of the time spent awake - I suppose I was resting, so maybe it's not too bad.
I don't actually feel very tired today, so maybe it hasn't impacted me too much.
Anyway, just an illustration of that balancing act with WILD!

So happy to have finally broken my dry spell though!
