Failed Advanced Task

I failed not from lack of lucid abitities, but because I was pure chicken haha!
Ok, so I did a WBTB at 6:30am and had a really rough time falling back to sleep. I finally did, then woke up around 9:30am. I fell back to sleep thinking about the annoying shift I was about to have to do (meeting plus 1 1/2 hour close shift). Anyway, I was imagining myself going through closing drills, then my thoughts phased into a dream of me actually running through the halls at work. I stopped and thought to myself, "Hey, I was JUST thinking about this while lying in bed, I'm dreaming!" That's happened to me once before that I can recall, and it happened in a work dream too. Anyway, I immediately thought of the TOTM. Since I've kinda been working down the list from easiest to hardest (for me), I thought I'd try the pumpkin head one. In the dream, I was in the back hallway but not near the bathroom. So I just imagined that the next door to my left would be the team member bathroom, and sure enough the little restroom sign appeared next to the door. Oh, I wanted a bathroom so I could use a mirror for reference when popping off my head. I went into the bathroom, and closed the door. I even locked the door because I didn't want a random DC to come in and fuck up my task. So I looked in the mirror and thought of CanisLucidus and the lego-head thing. I tried to lift my head from my neck, but it didn't pop off. Instead it stretched a bit. Like silly putty (was it paigey who did something similar? Somebody had a silly putty neck). Anyway, it stretched a few inches, and then I was just like "Oh FUCK no" and quit! It was just too real feeling. I mean, I knew I was dreaming still, but it felt too real and morbid. I felt as scared as I did when I had the first pleiosaur lucid. I had the same "omg RUN AWAAAAAAAAAAaaay" feeling. Damnit.
But I didn't want to waste the lucid, so I thought I might try to finish where I left off in the last one, and regrow my vamp teeth and bite someone. I looked up close into the mirror, and looked at my incisors, willing them to grow long and sharp. They grew longer, but stayed blunt. And with the bumpy edges like when you lose your baby teeth and the new ones come in with those little bumps. So stupid. So, on to plan C: get some nookie.
I left the bathroom, went down the hall, and head some voices in a room. I walked in on a guy talking to a woman who I assumed was his daughter for some reason. As soon as I entered, he shut up. Like he knew what I was gonna do lol. The woman had fallen asleep in a chair. I picked her up and moved her to a nearby sofa. I then spent waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long deliberating over how the pillows were situated under her head, and other random things that I forgot. I didn't even have time to switch gender and get us naked before I woke up.
