Lucid Dreams Inside Dreams

[Swank]

So the last few LDs I've had, including one last night, have gone a little like this - Im dreaming that I'm at some house other than my own, unconscious in the dream, then I go to sleep in a bed at the house and try a WILD technique or initiate a DILD, and suddenly I'm lucid. I can recall techniques for reality checks etc, and try a few lucid activities, BUT I still think that reality is that I'm sleeping at the dream house. I also find that while lucid, the things I can do are fairly limited. I sat down and tried to manifest a TV in the room, but it just didn't happen. I was able to float but not fly, and could walk through walls and make things go in slow motion. Interestingly enough while lucid in the room I was supposed to be sleeping, my body wasn't in the bed. I think it all has to do with how lucid I really am. I've only had 1 lucid dream where I was free to pretty much do anything. Has anyone else experienced this?

Maybe this a little bit different, but I do tend to act out Lucid Techniques without actually being lucid. I imagine this would be from reading and thinking them over so often. My first few LD's were actually the result of me randomly doing the hand-rubbing technique during a normal dream. This triggers memories of LDing, ending with me being actually lucid. Did any of that make sense? Sorry if that was badly worded. :p
