My first lucid dream
About a month ago I was supposed to attend the going away party of a friend moving to Florida, unfortunately I was unable to go. That night I dreamed that I went to the party. So I'm wondering through this house packed full of familiar faces and a few unfamiliar when I see my old roommate sitting in this really cool recliner chair. I stopped to say hello, she told me she had got a tattoo earlier that day. So I ask to see it. She pulls up both sleeves of her sweater and all over her forearms is the design of the blanket I'm sleeping under. I reacted in a puzzled way at first and then it hit me all at once..I was dreaming. Instead of attempting anything out of the ordinary I enjoyed the party like i would in reality. It was an amazing and very comforting dream. At times I could feel my body laying on the couch i was sleeping on. That was very strange as I was standing most of the time. I have never had such an indicator like that since but it was so badass. :)

Sweet way to realize you're dreaming. My weirdest one yet would have to be my friend Nick storming off in a frenzy because I wouldn't lend him $2000 because I wanted it to go to poor kids in Africa, so he swore at me a stormed off. Nick is not the kind who gets angry (ever) or swears so I just said "wow I must be dreaming. that's it, I'm lucid dreaming" and bam! I woke up after the dream ended and laughed about it.

Sweet, im guessing that this was before finding the forums. Which is great because that will give you a one up on all the newbs here.

Very recently Ive started to LD (I think its due to the fact that im a recovering drug user). After like two weeks of being sober my dreams started taking off, and its become a new interest i'm pursuing. I never know when they are coming though its all very random I have weak dream control i suppose. But my recall is solid and most of the time the dreams are vivid if anything. Often I kick myself in the ass for not realizing Im dreaming haha most of the dreams I'm having are like absurd independent films that make little sense.
