People ask me why I have never made a serious effort to learn lucid dreaming. Part of the reason is that my dreams tend to be vivid and detailed and interesting and coherent enough it almost seems ungrateful.

The other part is that /every time they have expressed an opinion on the matter, that opinion is 'NO'/

Suddenly I "wake up" in a car, being driven to a military base where they want me to investigate something. I must have dozed off.

I mention to the driver that I almost had a lucid dream but got kicked out at as soon as I realized.

Driver: "For the best, you'd probably mess with something that was none of your business."

Dreamed I was at a military base, called in as an outside advisor to inspect what looked like a haunted network.

I took a dislike to someone who seemed a bit of a weasel and mentioned to my assistant, "That guy's a sneak. He acts like he has to see everything in the world that goes on."
Assistant: "So do you, sir!"
Me: "Yes, but I'm dreaming this. If I don't see things they don't end up happening, so I have an excuse.'

Realization dawns. I'M DREAMING, I try and will the area a bit cleaner
