I know very little about dreams so I'll try to explain this best I can.

Yesterday I found this site and did a little reading and found it all interesting and maybe worth a try. I also read some stuff on Wikipedia about dreams.

One of the things I read was about reverse blinking, so I gave it a shot last night before going to sleep. It made me feel very heavy, almost like my limbs were being pulled downward. I also saw a lot of swirly blue colors that seemed to get more vivid as I stared past them. I don't know what that was about.

However, someone was watching TV downstairs and the noise kept snapping me out of the whole reverse blinking thing. I ended up moving (I felt strangely numb) and falling asleep like I normally do.

One of the things that I read on Wikipedia was a statistic on how many people dream in black and white. I never really noticed what the colors in my dreams looked like, so I suppose that stuck in my mind. As I was dreaming, I suddenly thought about how I saw colors in my dream - which made me realize I was dreaming. I began thinking about how lucid dreams could start that way, but the dream faded away or something. The next thing I remember was my alarm clock going off.

I would appreciate it if someone could explain what happened, or point me in the right direction to find out on my own. Sorry for the length of this.
