Last night I believe I had the most vivid dreams I can recall. It had all the makings of a lucid - minus the "dream awareness" ingredient.
Normally I wouldn't post such a not-so-extrodinary event, but damn it - I'm in a major LD slump here and this is the first semi-enjoyable sleeping occurence I've had in months.

Here's the question:
While I don't recall being lucid, I very much enjoyed the dreams. So much that I got up and made the effort to record them(at 5am). I have been keeping a journal, but then stopped due to my dreams becoming more and more fragmented. So I stopped. Anyway - the fact that I wasn't lucid didn't seem to bother me much for some reason. Could it be that the lack of knowing you're not "in reality" (I realize that's a relative thing) made it more exciting? Or is it just the lack of impressionable dreams lately that's making this seem great?

Anyone else have vivid dreams they think were better than lucids?
