March 6, 2013 - 4.5 hours in - 2 minutes or more - WBTB, SSILD, MILD

Woke via alarm after 3.5 hours and got in a comfortable chair and did about 6 SSILD cycles of gradually increasing length. Afterward I did a mantra of "1, I'm dreaming, 2, I'm dreaming, 3..." while trying to visualize each digit up to 25, then went back to bed.

My hand passes through the computer monitor like it isn't even there. While my hand is in it, I feel it touch an edge, but I can keep passing through this. I touch a glass paperweight and it is solid. My steadily rising awareness becomes full lucidity around this time. I rub my hands and plug my nose and breathe.

After this I think to myself it has been 10 minutes already. However, I do not think this was actually the case, but perhaps I had been there 10 minutes pre-full-lucidity or this sensation of time passing was manufactured by the dream.

I ate a gummy fish that was sitting there, which is realistic but less chewy, and head upstairs. It is night and I try to look out the window in the front door, but for some reason it is too high. I try to jump, and with difficulty I do so and see large pine and regular trees which are not there in real life.

I head into the bedroom which is also dark and someone is watching TV. It shows a dark room which I think might be something creepy, but its actually just a guy who looks like T. coming in and talking to someone.
