I'm back!.. I think.. but what kind of LD?

Hey guys. So I used to visit this site a lot in the past but haven't really done so over the last 9 months or so due to a massive dry spell... well it looks like that's over as this morning I managed to have 4 lucid dreams! Ok they were by no means amazing, and only one actually lasted a semi-decent amount of time, but I really want to discuss how they happened and see what you guys think...

Well I set an alarm for 9:30, with the intention of getting up rather than LDing. But then when it went off, I decided to take advantage of the snooze button and pressed it for about half an hour... towards the end of that half hour I had two lucid dreams. It was weird though... they weren't DILDs... what happened was, (in the second one) I was drifting off, still conscious that I would quite like to LD again.. then as blurry objects drifted in and out of sight, I sort of 'seized' them, and looked at and felt them, and jumped into that reality, if you know what I mean?

Not that it really matters, but I'm not sure what to classify them as.. I hesitate to refer to it as a WILD as I tend to think of these as necessarily being preceded by HOURS&HOURS of lying in bed being bored

Anyway two of my LDs today started like that, and the other two were false awakenings. Never underestimate the power of false awakenings!

Nah, that sounds like a WILD

The FAs though are DILDs
