FryingMan - I hope I do not intrude on you overly much, when I ask you, if you tried "helping yourself" in WBTB, maybe even twice? |

Congrats on #37 FM!! Your count is progressing quite nicely! I will send you a PM also. |

Too funny! I think everyone reacts differently to sex before a big LD, whether it involves more than one person or not! |

Near LD this morning after being awake for 26 hours, in a new top-3 all-time best non-lucid sex dream. Now begins the dreaded jet lag adjustment. I seem to be waking naturally around 5 hours now which I'm happy with because it gives me a shot at WILD and practicing a lot of relaxation and experimenting with SSILD. |

Long night again, lots of wakings, dreams, not continuous but each scene remembered fairly well, really tired at bed time, need to WBTB properly. Kept dozing well into morning and would wake with "oh, another dream...." and would recall it. I didn't record until morning but every waking I quickly ran through the growing list of dreams to keep it fresh, it seems to have mostly worked. |

Great!! |

Thanks, StephL! Hmm well I think it was 2-3 times, definitely at least twice, about 2 weeks ago. I was reading from a tablet device. I intend to keep doing it, I may record and listen at bedtime just so that I can listen without disturbing everybody. |

Dangit, bad night, I knew I dreamt, but only came out with one short fragment. I hate nights like that. Still a bit sick. |

This may be a long shot but since false awakenings can be so convincing at times, have you thought about making sure that you do a motionless RC each time you think you are seeing the lights awake? |

It's a good point and I'll work on increased vigilance for any remee-notifications. Just today I felt "awake" when I saw the lights and noted the color seemed clear/white rather than red, which I rationalized via thinking the mask had slipped a bit out of position, a missed opportunity perhaps. I also at another time did an RC in response to the lights and it indicated awake. |

Trying to get back to early morning wakings to recall and get in a WBTB. Got some early morning recall today @ 4.5 hours, and I summoned the will to record. Some fairly nice dreams including a room painted entirely bright electric blue, it was purty. And I kissed a dog (the 4-legged variety as opposed to the 2-legged). Haha! |

Getting kind of pissed off (again). Going on 3 weeks (AGAIN) since last lucid. These near-month breaks in between a handful of lucid dreams are such bummers. Progress feel like it's at a snail's pace, if that. I guess my last LD being my longest yet (despite low lucidity) is something to be happy about. I don't feel any sort of frequency boost despite all my day work. |

You got this FM! Maybe it is one of those times where it helps to let up on the throttle a little. Either way, I bet you'll have another LD soon. |

Well at least my dreaming is holding steady, this was a pretty good sequence with a near-epic finale: |

Another nice dreaming night, long dreams, memory a bit fragmented though. Watched "Insidious" last night. I'm not a fan of horror movies or being scared, but I need to do *something* to break out of this dry spell, and nightmares seem to very reliably make me lucid, and I almost never have them now (a good think I suppose for LD training in general). |

Woke this morning from some very aware vivid dreams. Unfortunately couldn't get back to sleep after recording (got soooooo close, including some dreamlets) due to bed partner snoring. Man I'm missing some really great late morning dreams cuz of that I think. |

I've decided to stop counting my LDs (but I just woke from #41 and #42, on the fumes of galantamine, heh, but who's counting |
