Do you just enjoy the dream experience itself or are you also concerned about being able to recall them once you are fully awake? Often times, especially in lucid dreams, I worry about dreams getting fragmented overtime. This is mostly a concern for me when I find myself having chain of several dreamlets and dreams. Sometimes I have over 7+ lucids one after the other mostly via false awakening or DEILD. Most of the time even when I know I can still keep going, I start to worry about earlier experiences getting fragmented. I have broken out of the chain so many times just to maintain decent recall. How about you? ^^
For me, I tend to remain in a single dream all night. If I wake up and have to do any communication with a person or any talking at all I loose the 'save point' I set up and have to force the dream back into place as I go to sleep. Sometimes I find that even when I try to force it I wind up on a tangent or even a new dream completely. It really depends on how long I have been asleep.
What I do, if I wake up to go take a piss or something is hold the dream in my mind, sort of sleep walk to the bathroom while repeating in my mind the last thing that was in the dream and then come back and restart it with my imagination as I drift off.
As for remembering it or not, I tend to remember them as well as you would remember daydreaming about something while awake. It is only the 'special' once I even care about remembering now. Most of my dreams are just entertainment for me, I have them to have a good time and play in my own made up world with all of my made up people.
I once dreamed I hung out with the original three stooges in a cardboard box manufacturing warehouse somewhere in Chicago, they were great guys, really fun to hang out with.
How is that relevant, not sure...
Just that some dreams seem to stick with me more than others.
