Kinda had a humorous dream last night, though it was quite interesting in nature. Thought I'd share.

You see, I was in a room this morning lying down on the floor trying to sleep. There is a window directly in front of me, and it is quite bright outside already. I close my eyes, and in just moments I see the most vivid imagery on my eyelids. I try "looking" out the window and see extremely vivid imagery of birds flying over, the wind blowing around the trees, etc. I almost forget my eyes are closed, so I open my them and see a similar environment, though some trees are in other places plus some other slight differences.
It clicks to me then, "Hey! If I can visualize this vividly now for some reason, I should be able to enter dreams consciously easily!"
So, I try it again by closing my eyes. After a few short moments, I am seeing the most brilliant, vivid imagery again. Everything has a true-to-life nature to it. It is truly mesmerizing.
I then notice my other senses start to step into the world that I see, plus I have some distortions and vibrations. I realize that I must be dreaming now, and I do a nose plug reality check that that confirms it.
Now the dream becomes unstable, the extremely vivid imagery starts to go in and out of focus, and when I try to move my arm, the entire dream falls apart.

I am now awake. In my bed. Not on the floor. That entire ordeal in a windowed room, eyes "open" or not, was a dream.
I then slap myself in the forehead in a "could've had a V8" way for not realizing it in the first place.

In short, I became lucid for a short time in a dream within and dream. Has this ever happened to any of you?

Weird.
