      Reality Checks

      Id like to know what signs people look for when they do a reality check.
      For me I read something, look away and read it again. If it reads the same twice I know I am not dreaming...

      Post yours!

      There's hundreds of RC aviable.

      My major ones are:
      Digital clocks
      Light levels
      Analog clock jumping few minutes at a time
      Words changing
      Photos changing

      When you fall from a skyscraper and not die.
      When you can defy physics.
      When you see aliens impersonating Elvis.
      When you see anything else out of the ordinary.

      It's helpful to do them even if you have a hint something's out of the ordinary...

      What might work is observing your clothes and see if you remember when and where you put them on....

      Girl on girl action?

      One of mine is as simple as being in my old subdivision or house.
      Or being able to run quickly without tiring.

      Disturbing... to say the least

      I generally don't use RC's, I just somehow know its a dream...
      If I hadn't made me
      I'd be more inclined to bow
      Powers that be would have swallowed me up
      But that's more than I can allow...

      I check my digital watch a couple of times.

      Then I try to transcend into clarity and think hard about a dream. Hopefully if I think about a dream IN a dream then I WILL transcend consciousness.

      If I'm in my room I look at my monitor (or will now) because it's black on gray and if ANYTHING is different, I pick that up. Other than that it's usually pushing my finger through my palm or another object.

      usually i look at a clock, look at my hands to see if they change into weird shapes, and stick my finger through my hand... or sometimes i can just know without doing all that stuff
