There was a lot more to the dream, but I only remember a small chunk of it now.
I was outside, I think near Weyers Cave Elementary School, it was night time, and I was looking up in to the sky. I got the feeling that I might see stars starting to move around like I often do in my dreams, which caused me to start becoming lucid and consider that I might be dreaming. As I watched, over some trees kind of to my right (facing towards Massanutten) I started seeing a few moving stars come up over the tops of the trees. They weren't moving in a straight line, but rather in somewhat random and squiggly motion.
There was a man standing next to me. He looked like he was nearing 50, and he had thinning blond hair and big glasses. He reminded me somewhat of a more 'with it" version of Milton from Office Space. I got his attention and pointed the moving stars out to him, and he was watching them with a grin on his face. As I did, I thought to myself that if I asked him something, and if he gave a particular answer, then I would know I was dreaming. I don't remember the exact question that I asked him, but it was something that I knew that he wouldn't know the actual answer to (or I thought that he would think the answer was something completely different) if this wasn't a dream. It was something along the lines of, "Do I feel like I know what I'm doing at work?" If he answered "yes", then I would know this was a dream. Sure enough, while grinning and keeping his eyes on the stars, he said yes and nodded his head slowly.
I was so excited about realizing that this really was all a dream that I woke myself up.
