Introducing Myself

Hello. I gotta go to work pretty soon, but I just wanted to get my name out there and introduce myself.
I've tried lucid dreaming once before and kinda fell out of it, but now I'm giving it another shot. I ordered a couple of Dr. Stephen LaBerge books today, but until they come in I'm going on what I can find on the net.
I've been at it for two nights now and haven't remembered anything yet, but I know my mind will catch on sooner or later and start remembering more.
Any more specifics you might want to know, just ask.
Bye!

For help with your dream recall, start writing down your dreams. What really messes up my recall is being jarred awake by an alarm or some other sound and/or if I immediately change position or start thinking about my day once I wake up. Try telling your subconscioius to wake you up after each dream or to wake you up about 15 minutes before your alarm goes off (I know it sounds stupid but you'd be surprised how accomodating your subconscious can be).

Once you wake up.. don't move! Think about the dream that you just had.. If nothing comes to mind.. try to remember if there was a specific person, place, thing, food or emotion in the dream. Once you come up with even a tidbit of the dream.. try to work your way backward.. how did you get there.. who was with you, etc.

Also, no one says that you have to write a "book" about the dreams you have. For me, if I'm too tired (or lazy), simply writing down the main topic/subject, and a word or two or a feeling is enough for me to recall a dream.
