I've lost motivation lately and haven't had a lucid for a while, so I'm in. One question though - how exactly would you do a reality check with Xmas lights? Touch them? Turn them on or off? What does that prove? I still have a problem with reality checks because it seems to me that you could make anything you want happen in a dream, so if I intend to touch the lights they might seem solid, and if you intend to turn them on or off that could also happen.
