So after about 8 months I think I finally found my lucidty niche. WBTB. I'd tried it before but it just started happening by itself (i'm sure it had to do with my constant daily RC's) but I'd wake up in the middle of the night, go to the bathroom, come back and go to sleep. Last night I got up and did a couple RC's while in the bathroom and when I came back I said "I will recognize the dream state" and things like "when I am lucid I will fly" and low and behold I had one of the most lucid dreams I've ever had and I was lucid from the beginning of the dream.
Has the WBTB technique worked well for you guys? and if so, what sort of things do you do in your short (or long) period of time you spend awake before heading back to bed?
I'm excited to get on track with lucid dreaming.. I hope it keeps working for me!

p.s. the bathroom is a great place to do RC's because you can look in the mirror, read text, flip the light switch, and do whatever it is you feel to test your state.
