In my first 2 LD’s I woke myself with excitment, but since my last log in, I had my 3rd and 4th LD’s! what made these dreams special is, I was able to stablize and stay Lucid over an hour! I was even able to talk to my DC mom! She told me “You will have better dreams, IF you stop your semi-chaotic behavior” When I ask her why the dream was a nightmare before I became Lucid…
Well, I am stillgrounded from the computer, I just thought I would break in the good news! 
Being able to have LD’s without having the frustration of waking up from excitement is awesome! Over an hour? Nice!
Congratulations! That is really great. I just started working on my recall last night and I sort of know how you feel. I was so excited about getting started that all I remember of one of my dreams is being excited about getting started. I woke up to a thunderstorm, but still. I didn’t really dream of anything special, just that I was excited.
Yeah, and since I posted this thread I had one more LD, however my dog woke me up about 6 seconds after it started. (DARN!)
