Very obvious, yet failed reality checks

I have to LOL at my dream last nite. I thought everything was just going so bizarre in my dream scape. I was in my bathroom with people I didn't even know in real life. I suddenly screamed, very vividly "I am dreaming! I need to do a reality check! Quick! Is there any text I can use for a reality check!?" A person handed me some sunscreen bottle, but I was too excited to to read it, bwahahaha! I ended up being somewhat semi-lucid. This was just a hilarious event...

maybe you could have skipped the formality of a reality check and skipped into the lucid dream

LOL That's so funny. Doesn't look like it completely failed though. Oh and your DCs seemed very cooperative. :P
