Lucid Dream #43
I had a completely frivolous, very enjoyable lucid last night where I was leaping around the railings of a mall and singing old novelty Christmas songs. I was pleased to have any kind of LD at all because some sort of minor cold-like symptoms were keeping me awake.

The Flying Mall Rat - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Tech: SSILD w/ 25-minute WBTB
Pre-bed food: 100mg B-complex, 200mg ubiquinol, 3g fish oil, dark chocolate
Sleep: ~6.5 hours (some mild cold symptoms kept me from falling asleep as quickly as I'd like)

Obsessive Dream Behavior
At the end of this last lucid, someone in the final scene didn't look like they did in waking life. I just had to fix them so that they looked like their waking life counterpart. I frittered away the rest of the dream on this pointless task. I have no idea why this seemed so important, because in the light of day it seems like a complete waste of time. LOL.

I'll try to make sure I do everything that I can to maintain a "go with the flow" attitude at the start of lucidity. This should hopefully blunt any tendencies toward obsessing about silly things (such as this example) or fighting too hard against the natural flow of the dream (examples of which may be found all over my dream journal.)

General Lucid Aid Schedule
This is the general schedule for lucid aids that fits with my week. It keeps my total exposure to B-complex to 200mg per week and total exposure to galantamine to 4mg per week (in a single dose.)

Monday: B-complex
Tuesday: Apple juice
Wednesday: Galantamine (only if had at least one non-galantamine LD in past week)
Thursday: Apple juice
Friday: Popcorn
Saturday: B-complex
Sunday: Apple juice
