It's been a long while since I have 'ilucidated', in the past I've done strange things like having 5 false awakenings in a row, where I kept 'waking up', only to find my self 'waking up' into yet another dream where I was marvelling at the great dream I just had which was itself a dream that I 'awoke' from only to marvel again at my foolishness etc... In the end I had a strange experience where I was still in the final dream and I knew it, therefore I knew that I must be in my bed in my room and my gf would be next to me. So I tried to talk to her from the dream without waking up. I wanted to describe where I was.

I didn't know for sure if she could hear me, it was very difficult I tried to shout but my voice seemed choked in my throat. I then tried to thrash around to make sure that I could get her attention and say some stuff so that later when I woke I could check to see I was imagining all this or I was really talking to her while being aware of what I was saying.

As it turned out she was later able to verify that I was indeed trying to get some words out but they were a bit strangled. She just thought I was dreaming...er which I was. I then told her about what happened. She did not seem as excited as I was that I was dreaming while at the same time being able to be aware of my real surroundings.

I'm getting a REM dreamer delivered in a few days but this morning I had a whole bunch of mini choppy lucids. My instinct as soon as I realise I'm dreaming is to fly. It's the first thing I want to do. I'll just jump off the first thing I see. Must learn to calm down a bit.
