Hey, I dream like that too sometimes. Done it since a kid too. I can also control those dreams as well. I never knew there was a name for it. Thanks for the info and welcome!
Yes I original frequent a forum called dreamviews, which is a huge forum for lucid dreamers. I usually talk more about my interest in lucid dreaming since it runs so deep, but I learned from talking to friends that people get overwhelmed with it if I go into too much detail and are much more interested if I mention it in passing xp.

Glad to meet you Beef Noodles!
Your hobbies sound very interesting to me. Especially lucid dreaming, which I have done many times in the past, but I am unable to control when it happens. It happens spontaneously. If you discover a way to 'choose' to have a lucid dream, please let me know!

I have been trying to find a way to do exactly that for years now, to this very day I'm working on using an auto shut-off alarm to wake me up without moving, this way I hypothesize that I can wake up without moving at all and slide back into a dream consciously. I know that I can do it without an alarm, but the thing is you don't always think to not move when you wake up. If you don't move your body doesn't wake up much and it is easier to fall back into a dream. We usually think of sleep as a loss of consciousness, but it isn't necessarily so, the body can fall asleep well you are awake, under the right circumstances.
