Lucid dream cubing?

I can lucid dream about 70% of this nights I try to, I tend to "start" the lucid dreaming control then let my imagination run wild and tweak whatever it throws at me.
Had cubes appear a few times and managed to solve them but a lot of the time an algorithm will produce a weird result eg doing a PLL algorithm will go back to needing an OLL or having 2/3 F2L pairs out and going straight to OLL.
My worst experience was when I had just learned 4x4 (except I was still failing OLL parity more often than getting it right) and making 2x2 center blocks wouldn't work. Even though I was doing the correct turns, the centers would change colours in a random way. Cuber OCD was kicking in wanting to get it solved but after what seemed like half an hour or so (dream time is meant to be the same as real life time) I stopped trying and threw it.
Used lucid dreaming to think of new intuitive F2L cases a few times but colours start to blend or pieces move differently.

I can't lucid dream on command, but there's been 3 instances in my life where I've realised I was dreaming, all when I was a young child. I started flying in one, shouted "I'm in a dream!" repeatedly in the other, and I can't remember about the last one.
Well last night (I think this was during a dream), when I would shut my eyes to go to sleep (dreamception, I know), I would instantly go into lucid dreaming. Also, I had sleep paralysis, but in my dream. My mind woke up, but my body was still asleep, and I eventually got all my muscles moving, but this was all in my dream. I'd been looking into lucid dreaming yesterday, so I guess that's something to do with it.
During the same night, I had a dream where down my road there was this shop/place that sold cubes, and also allowed you to officially do averages. That would be a good idea IRL, if enough people went to it.
Also, when in a lucid dream, is it possible to remember stuff from your waking life? Such as what food you had for dinner that evening etc.
 
I've been trying to lucid dream but I just can't do it :( :( I've had dreams where I solve cubes though, and completely visualize a solve. It's cool
 
I can't maintain control long enough to do anything significant.Also I'm afraid to make a direct attempt at lucid dreaming due to sleep paralysis and the adverse effects it may have on my mental state. Other than that I can only lucid dream when I realize I'm dreaming but end up waking soon after for some reason.If I remember I'll try cubing next time.
 
I've had a few lucid dreams, never thought of solving a Rubik's Cube in one though. I could try it, but because of those SSRI's I'm taking it's really hard to get any lucid dreams. I've spent hours listening to binaural beats, tried WBTB and WILD methods. And still no success.
Though I remember I've had some dreams in which I was solving some cubes without being lucid.
 
Last night I had an extremely strange dream. I think that I was dreaming that I was asleep, lucid dreaming. However, in my dream I could tell that I was moving in the dream while asleep and lucid dreaming. However, since I had consciousness in my dream I figured I wasn't really lucid dreaming, so I gave up. Then I woke up in my dream, but stayed asleep IRL. Crazy stuff.
