I was thinking about what I REALLY want to do in a dream, but so far I haven't decided on anything yet.

Last night I had a real lucid, instead of one of those 'was I just lucid?' dreams. A monkey had put my thumb in his mouth, causing it to become purple and bloated. I was looking at both thumbs and thought the bloated one looked quite strange (aside from it being bloated and purple), as if it wasn't attached correctly. I looked closer and noticed I was mistaken but for some reason still decided to attempt to push two fingers from my left hand through my right palm, which worked. I immediately realised I was dreaming and got very excited, because I had attempted this technique on one other occasion long ago. Though it failed back then, I did also become lucid. Last night I was actually happier with the fact that the method worked than with the fact that I was lucid. I immediately realised that I should calm my excitement or else I would wake up. I'm not sure if I really woke up, but I did lose the dream. I frantically tried to look at my hands to pull myself back into the dream, but failed to do so. Then I thought really hard about pushing my fingers through my hand again, but it felt as if I wasn't in a dream at the time.
