Paralysis

No recall, zero, for the last 2 nights. Had a strange one last night not sure how to classify it! 1) I was talking to my wife in bed, she said something about throwing a pillow (or cushion?) off to the side and it would be strange if it moved on its own. I thought, no, that would be fun because it would be supernatural. Then I was <PERSON> (in the dream) and it was working I heard really loud noises, quite deafening, and I felt myself vibrating all over. I thought at last! it is working, it is frightnening but it is working, I remembered everything I have been told and tried to think of a dream scene, that did not work. I went with it for a while and tried to move my dream body to get an OBE, but that did not work. Then I tried force my eyes open remembering that I should enter a dream that way. I could not so I started to panic. I tried to move but realised I was paralysed and the noises and vibrations were getting more intense. I could sense my wife next to me and I could here her talking, and someone else talking the other side of me, I thought my wife must be dreaming as well. Then I force my eyes open and I could see my wife but I still could not move and I still had really loud noises happening and I thought this is not right I am stuck in some sort of weird state and might never get out of it - it was either a nightmare false awakening or a sleep paralysis that seemed to go on forever. Then I think I woke up properly, it was midnight, and was able to move, it all went silent at last. 2) Finding a seat in a canteen, I moved to another room in the canteen and sat next to an old lady she looked all alone and she was quite angry. Next I was <PERSON> at a table for some reason I was handed a sample in a sealed glass jar, I put it down and it smashed. A nurse told me to fix the bottle with sticky tape and it would be fine, so I did. 3) I was moving towards a big gate in a Star Wars type scene. There were storm troopers moving toward me and I was shooting them and I hit a few and they fell. 4) Racing a car around a dirt track 5) In a bank, someone else arrived and was annoyed becasue they wanted to rob the bank and I already had, so they went away. 6) An old childrens playhouse that I was trying to burn. It had a load of other old wood on top of it. It was not burning well, so I was trying to put dry tinder under the roof to get it going better. There was someone inside and I just managed to get them out as the fire took. I looked back and the firewood on top still was not burning very well. The detail in this dream was very good. 7) In a football stadium, cannot remember too much, but I was more concerend about what was happening in the terrace and never looked down becasue I am not interested in football. In the same dream I was thinking about which girl I fancied as if I was about 18 again, and I was writing down on 2 pages in a book something about myslef, and something about the girl I fancied to compare us, for her I wrote a phrase 'Do not be such a dipstick <PERSON>, not sure why.

Introduction I got up far too early this morning and decided to go back to sleep and lucid dream. It took me a while to fall asleep again after waking up. I used the usual MILD strategies -

4/22/13 I got into bed and just decided to go through my usual process for WILD instead of turning off completely. There are a lot of naps I take where I just practice going to sleep instead

1. I was walking around in a garden type of area. There was an abundance of plant life around me, all being green along with some red and pink flowers. This garden area was rather large, and
