I've had this happen to me a lot. One time, I became lucid in a dream, I was standing on a street corner, I kept waiting for something to happen. I kept saying to myself "Something's gonna happen, something's gonna happen" but nothing did.


That is, until I went back to normal dreaming and walked down the street and found an army outpost, with soldiers that were fighting something like ghouls or zombies or something and then I became a general for some reason and had to lead a strikeforce into the enemy's base.
