I have a weird sleep scheduled due to opposite work schedules with me and my Fiance. I go to bed at 2ish, wake up at 6:30 and drive her to work. Get home at 7:15-7:20 and go to sleep around 7:40. I then sleep till 12. Anyway, this morning, which which was Friday the 1st. I was struggling to fall asleep that morning, By 9 in the morning I had been laying in bed for an hour and a half trying to sleep, with no luck. So figuring why not, I started trying to lucid dream. Focusing on what I thought was my second most known area, My work, I imagined it fully, every detail I could think of. Suddenly I was standing in the middle of My work, Every color as bright as could be. My eyes got wide and I said "Holy * * I Am * dreaming" All of a sudden the whole dream began to ripple as if a huge stone was thrown in to a small pond. I could feel a pulling as if I was waking. So i looked at my hands, and the ripples slowed to a halt. I began to look back up and start to walk around, but I woke up Opening my eyes I was like "* I had it" Excited I had finally Entered a Lucid dream and it ended so quickly. So i Attempted again, picturing my work to full detail once again. I laid in bed and suddenly my whole body tingled and I felt myself go numb. I opened my left eye slowly, to peak in to my bedroom thinking I heard something, and I was standing in my work again. Just like that. Getting excited once again I got ripped out instantly. Shaking my head in agitation, I went at it again. This time just thinking about dreaming, and being conscious. I was standing in a stone room, sort of like the Flintstones houses. The tables and bookshelves were inside indents in the walls, built in sort of. I walked around the room slowly, Noticing a single post it note on the wall, I looked at it and it was just a pencil doodle. I looked away and looked back and it was a different doodle. I then woke up I tried once again but then failed at having a lucid dream, and slept the rest of the time. Remembering the next dream but it was quite boring.
