lucid dreaming

[WorthlessLiar]

When I'm having a nightmare I'm usually in too deep a sleep to tell what reality should look like. Some of my nightmares are horribly scary. The type where its a seemingly benign, yet incredibly bizarre dream that has a really scary ending that snaps you awake in a cold sweat. Here's a more amusing one though.

I dreamed I was in my bed lying awake at night. I looked out my window and saw a squirrel crawling across the glass. It took me a second to realize that squirrels can't climb glass and that's when it said "I'm going to kill you Alexander." Then all of a sudden three zombie women jumped out of my closet and started doing this creepy chant/song that was also about killing me. I snapped awake at that point.

I can usually only lucid dream when I'm sleeping at odd times and I can't change the dream too drastically at once otherwise I'll wake up or slip into a deeper sleep.
