When I WBTB I am usually awake anyway. I notice most of my microwakenings and can register up to about eight, despite not recalling any dreams some nights. The difference I have noticed really is that some nights I will recall a dream, wake up and record it (in my scribble pad) then go back to sleep moments later. If I wake and don't immediately fall asleep, I try to get up, drink some water, visit the restroom (without turning on the light) and then try to WILD. I still can't get it right, I almost always wind up never falling asleep until I fully give up. at least I have some really strange dreams which are always fun to recall if I can.

Anyway, time to dream some more, maybe I lucid tonight... F*ck it, I will. Let you know how that sh*t goes tomorrow
