9/21/2005 - Since placing my INTENT to lucid dream back into the universe, I have had three conscious dream experiences.

1) Tried to scream, knew that the fact that I was dreaming was stopping me from making sound, still tried to scream (I was angry in the dream), did not use the knowledge that I was dreaming to do anything cool.

2) Tried to kick and destroy a painting that I was working on, knew that I was dreaming, and that kicking would be hard, actually kicked twice (freaked out my husband), then he woke me up, did not use the knowledge that I was dreaming to do anything cool.

3) Regular run of the mill dream, knew that I was dreaming, didn't care and didn't try to do anything.

I am about to put an appointment in my Outlook for every day (with a reminder) that "I am dreaming and need to do my dream work now".

More later....
