I have recently started keeping a pad of paper near my bed so I can write down what I can when I wake up. Later, when time permits, I put a detailed version in my Dream Views dream journal.

Like Tsen said, try keeping a DJ. When you become Lucid in a Dream, just try to settle down a little, or you could try WILD.
I have tried something similar to a WILD; without the L. On occasion when I wake up from a really cool dream that I want to get back to I will try to remain as still and relaxed as possible with my eyes closed and focus on the dream I was just having in an effort to pick up where I left off.

Also, I meant to make the title of this thread "The obligatory hello thread."
