      Something really weird happened last night in a LD. Help!

      Okay, so I had just been dreaming about my grandma, (who passed away 2 years ago) And I woke up. (False Awakening) I "Woke up" in my bedroom.
      Everything seemed so normal.
      I looked at my alarm clock, however and it read: 72:11
      I thought, what the heck??
      I looked away, and looked back at it. It read: 23
      Just a plain 23.
      I thought I must be dreaming! I looked around my room. It suddenly had gotten dark. Like, pitch black dark. I thought about getting a flashlight, but I decided not to. I carefully walked out into the hallway. It got a little bit lighter. I walked into my living room. I have a big window looking out into my front yard. Lots of light was pouring in through the window. I wanted to go outside, but I couldn't find a door. To make things easy, I plowed through the glass window. I wasn't thinking of pain, and sure enough, I didn't feel pain!! =D
      Okay, So when I got outside it was dark. (Not fully dark. Almost as if it was early in the morning. No sun, but light out.) It was really blurry. I couldn't see anything. I yelled "Clarity Now!" And nothing happened. I realized I was actually wearing glasses. I took off the glasses, thinking the blurryness would go away, but I WOKE UP, as I was taking off the glasses.
      I am so confused.
      What made me wake up? I was calm. I just took off some glasses!! Has this ever happened to anybody? And can someone tell me what might have caused me to do this?

      Maybe when you became lucid you were already close to waking up?Almost all of my lucids were like that.

      Yeah, usually I feel rushed in my lucids, but in this one, I felt like I had all the time in the world.
      I don't think that's the reason, but it is a huge possibility.

      Very interesting, what does it mean to you? I don't know what to tell you. Any ideas?

      Hm.
      I don't really have an idea. But nothing has ever happened to me like that ever. It's all so confusing. I feel like I was doing everything right.
      But...Then I woke up. What do you think it means?

      I think...

      That perhaps your brain associating taking off your sunglasses with the waking part of your mind, and like Kamilii said you may have been close to waking, so your body did a normal reflex and it completely woke you.

      I would believe a more rational explanation than one of supernatural qualities. Lucid dreaming is amazing, and I believe you can access the Akashic Records through them with practice, but I don't think any foreign force was interfering with you dreams.

      Sorry for that bit, I just wanted to examine it from all possible angels, be it physical or spiritual.

      That makes sense.
      I was just so mad when I woke up. I didn't understand.
      Thanks.
      :]

      Yeah that does make sense actually.

      But I have many-a-time become lucid near the end of my REM anyway, so I just ended up waking up, just because it was time to wake up.

      But you can extend REM, apparently. There are specific things you can do, but I cannot remember them any more.

      In fact, that will bug me all day... god dam... what were they...

      I can't really be bothered looking for it right now either.
