Success (and I wasn't even trying)!

This LD caught me by surprise as I hadn't even thought about LDing when I went to bed last night.

I "sensed" that something was different and decided to do a reality check. I decided not to do the nose pinch as I was too tired and thought it was too much effort to pinch my nose. I then decided to look at my watch which meant raising my watch to my eyes and then finding the little knob on the side in the dark with my other hand, pressing it and then waiting for the light to come on so I could read the time (oh yeah.. this was MUCH less effort).

I kept pushing on my watch and it wouldn't light up which meant I was dreaming! The quality of the lucid was pretty crappy.. it wasn't very bright nor vivid.. but an LD is an LD is an LD.

I remember the lucid task for the month and I find myself in a neighborhood (I'm sensing a recurring LD theme here) and I see people (DCs) walking on sidewalks on both sides of the street.

I walk up to one and ask "Who am I?" He looks blankly at me and keeps walking.

I jog to the next one and he doesn't answer me either and keeps walking. WTF !! Any other time, my DCs talk to me with no problem!!

I run to another.. same response. By now, I'm probably looking pretty pathetic!

I race to the next DC and ask "Who am I??". He looks me right in my face and says "Who do you think you are?"

Ok.. I wasn't expecting that.. and as I stand there looking stupid, he too walks away.

I can't remember what happened after that as I slid into some non-consequential non-lucid dream about being at an outside party, a devastating storm hitting, losing radio contact with a boat and everyone dying.

You know.. now that I write this, my LD reminded me of a video game! You know where you're the hero/main character and, when you run up to game characters and get in front of them, they are supposed to tell you clues about the game. Well I sure wouldn't have gotten past Level 1!!
