Hey Mark

You definately sounded asthough you were on your way to a WILD, what you may have done is tried to WILD outside of an REM period, if you do this you will not experience HI until you enter an REM period, so you probably just eventually lost concentration after waiting for HI and fell asleep. My advice to you is to wake up after 5-6 hours of sleep and attempt a WILD, you may have more sucess that way. You seem to be doing well and i'm sure you will do well if you apply the technique properly Best of luck to you Mark!
