Ive had something happen to me a lot lately. I'll realize I'm dreaming, but instead of coninuing the dream, or waking up, I'm right smack dab in the middle of nowhere. Detached from everything. Still concious, and thinking .oO(Hey! I was dreaming! Now what?) This has happened at least 6 times in the last month. I've had very clear dreams too, but I just can't stay in touch with them when I realize what's going on.
