Now that I think back at it, I'm actually more surprised at my apparent autosuggestion skills!

I mean, I got an opportunity to test a random idea about attaining lucidity, an idea that popped into my head some few minutes before going to sleep. And it worked! That's just ridiculous!

Of course, "it worked" merely means that I became lucid for a little while, caused a significant change in the dream, and awoke due to excitement and/or lack of expertise.

BTW, I often think that someone who has never had a LD (or, more likely, someone who simply doesn't *remember* ever having one!) must find this forum really weird. But the experience is real. And really uplifting. The wonderful feeling that there are so many things to do with your own body, things you previously weren't aware of...!

OK, I'm starting to babble. Over and out.
