Weird experience last night, double false awakenings

Quest for Lucidity
1

Last night was an INSANE night of dreaming for me. It snowed last night and we lost power for about 18 hours… so I decided to go to sleep.

It was also my first night in an actual bed, and a new room.

I went to bed at 10:30, I awoke at 10:00AM.

I had SEVEN dreams!!

One was particularly weird. I didn’t know wether to count it as 1 LD or 3 LD’s, I counted it as one… but if we count them all together then then it would be 9 dreams last night… lol.

It was a normal dream, and I became lucid… something occured that usually happened when I was a newb… the dream faded away after becoming lucid. So, I’m laying in my bed and I open my eyes… nothing different, I go to log the dream and I did a reality check… BAM, it is a dream. Instead of logging the dream I break through the wall like Superman and just fly around… I love flying for some damn reason.

Well, I was going really fast, I figured I’d test Einstein’s Theory of Relativity… LOL!! So, there I am in a race with light but I was losing terribly… I won’t get into details but I think I proved the theory… I awoke. I’m lying in my bed awake, I go to log the dream.

I didn’t think about doing a reality check. I reach for my Dream Journal and what I saw next nearly scared the **** out of me. There is my twin brother(fraternal) standing in the corner of my room looking at me smiling. Now, I knew right away I was dreaming becasue I live alone in Canada and my brother lives in Florida. I’m not going to explain the dream, but it was crazy.

Two false awakenings back to back.

Has this ever happened to you?

Awesome!!
I always count things like that as one lucid dream, and call the different scenes ‘dream scenes’, but that’s be, and I’m weird :razz:

Anyways, I’ve had a similar experience, with false awakeings before, and I became lucid about 3 or 4 times!! It was weird! And once was one like your brother, only I awoke to see my roomate in my room, sitting, watching me sleep, that FREAKED me out, but then I realised it was a FA, so i floated around :happy:

I think I’m going to try to RC everytime I wake up, so I dont miss out on any LD’s during FA’s (I have before!!)

Anyways, that sounds like a fun night of dreaming Garlic!

Well, last night was a less eventful night of dreaming for me, only 2.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who had back to back FA’s … hehe

4

My record is 10 FA’s (well it were at least 10) in a row… Really anoying, each time I tried to get out of bed I’d get another FA

/me wakes up, looks at clock: 29:66 … lol!

/me wakes up again, “I know it’s still a dream”

/me wakes up “I know i…”

/me wakes up “Ok just dont think this is a d…”

/me wakes up “Ok, If I get up really slowly…”

well, this went on for a while…

/me wakes up for real “ok… ehr… rub hands!”

^ should have remembered that waaaay earlier :razz:

I have only had one FA (that I remember) and it lead to my only LD.
Garlic, what have you been sleeping on if this was your first time in a bed? lol

I lied, it wasn’t my FIRST time in a bed, it was my first time in a bed since May 24th… I did sleep in a real bed when I slept with my g/f… but I didn’t count that.

I was sleeping on a pull out couch, the bar was always in my back. Now I’m in a bed, hehe.
