I have kept a dream journal for close to 4 weeks now. I have remembered at least one dream almost every night, and the average is now a little over 2. I'm happy about that. Last night, near the end of my dream, I realized I was dreaming, but it was fading already and too late to do anything, so I gave up. There was a red mutant in my dream, and he suggested I do a DEILD. I tried, and almost fell asleep, but then my dog licked me and woke me up. Am I making progress towards lucid dreaming?
