I remember having a dream last night about something I had to do, and was pretty anxious about it. Now that I'm awake I can't remember what the thing I needed to do was, only that it was important and I was spending a great deal of mental energy trying to get it done.

Then, just as I was surfacing from the dream, something really strange happened. I had a hypnopompic hallucination, but I was fully aware of what it was while it was happening. The other weird thing is I think my eyes were open at the time it happened. I tried to turn the hallucination into a LD but it was so abstract. I kept seeing what looked like an old LCD screen with a grey backdrop in front of my eyes, with the faces of pixelized bears. Once I realized I was having a dream/hallucination, I tried to change what was happening. All I could manage was to make small black ripples appear in the LCD-like surface with my mind. Finally, after being essentially paralyzed but not scared, I woke up.
