..Ok this is my first post on this great site. I have been browsing the forums here for about two weeks. I found this site from a thread on Poker Strategy - Two Plus Two Poker & Gaming Strategy . I must first say, this is a wonderful community and would love to be apart of it.

Ok so on to the lucid. I fell asleep at about 830pm on the couch. My wife came home from work at about 1230am and cleaned up a bit, then woke me up at about 1am. I chatted with her then played on my iPad until about 230am. I go to sleep like normal and then...

Im dreaming. I'm sitting at a poker table in a card room I often frequent. I'll skip the details, and get right to the point. The card room is closing, and I am very drunk. I do not have a sober driver with me, which is very odd. I am worried about driving drunk and getting a DUI. I worry about that for a few minutes, then all of a sudden I think "I am not drunk. I do not have to drive home. I am lying in bed dreaming all of this!"

The dream immediately vanishes and my view is nothing but black. My heart is pounding, my breaths are deep! My body is tingling, I am experiencing euphoria! One of the best feelings of my life!!

After relishing in ecstasy for about a minute, I think to myself, "I'm in a lucid dream and I'm losing it because I'm so excited!" I try to "spin", but it does not work. I wake up in bed with a giant smile on my face, feeling more alive then I have felt in a long time. I am not mad that I did not have a long lucid, I am enjoying this wonderful sensation that has come over me.

AND THEN

After about 20 minutes lying in bed remembering every little detail about my lucid, I decide to try to WILD.

I lay there, counting my breaths. About three times I think I entered SP. Each time I had the images in front of me, and such a loud noise, like the noise at a movie theater. You know, the THX sound noise. It felt like I was being pulled into something.

But yet again, my excitement kept me from becoming completely lucid.

I am not upset tho, because the experience was wonderful.
