... I get lucid, I'm really excited, I turn around to face my companions while walking backwards looking at them, "Hey, I'm dreaming you guys are in my dream, what do you think about that?!" We're all inside an aisle in a store. I rub my hands together. Things are stable and fairly vivid. "Not very talkative, eh? Are you going to answer?" The DCs all around me that have that blank look on their faces like their software got put on 'pause,' they're giving me that "What do you think you're doing, you're not supposed to know you're dreaming" look. I briefly engage with a female DC but don't want to get distracted, and want to do some tasks! I decide on elevator since I'm inside a building. I start walking forwards (back the way we came) and see a corner coming up and decide to summon an elevator to appear there. "Hey you guys there, go ahead and press the elevator button for me now so it's ready for me when I get there!" And I turn the corner and voila there is the elevator. There is a desk placed in front of it but I figure I can easily slide over the top of it to get on. I walk in to the elevator (guess the table wasn't an obstacle), and as an afterthought, reach behind me and grab the hand of a female DC (I imagine) and bring her with me "just in case the elevator task goes bust, so at least the dream won't be a loss". We get on the elevator and it starts moving and I wake up ... and reach for my phone and call my son and tell him about the LD I just had with him in it [false, it was a former work colleague, already forgot that], I debate mentioning the part in it where I thought he was gay, notice the very long line of people waiting to board an airplane, they're blocking my way, I have to ask "excuse me" for them to open a space for me to walk through. A bunch of them traveling together are talking about their ticket numbers, wondering who got ticket #264, there is a woman among them with purply sparkly highlights around one eye...
... then I realize I'm in bed, think about the last scene I was in, and "Oops!" realize I missed a chance to continue the LD...
ALWAYS check, never assume you're awake!
