So last night i had a dream about lucid dreaming lol. I was rubbing my hands and spinning and stuff. However I had no idea i was dreaming. I woke up feeling pretty stupid. Am i getting closer to lucidity or just farther from it?
Current LD goal(s): to have my first lucid dream

Well dreaming about lucidty is what i think a step closer, it means that you are really busy with the subject!

Amazingly, there are false lucid dreams too. But the fact that the idea is in your mind is a good sign, I think.
Current LD goal(s): having my mind blown.

I had something sort of like this (i've never had a lucid dream that I remember, just recently started trying) where I was dreaming for only about 10 seconds, then in my dream I looked around for a second, then brought my hands to my face, and thats all I remember. I wasn't in control and didn't think to myself "this is a dream", but I think i'm getting closer.

I think you're closer than before. That is good that LDing is in your head at night. 
Current LD goal(s): Talk to my sub-concious, and explore my dreamscape

I'm pretty sure that counts as a LD! I'm still new so maybe I'm wrong, but if not congrats! It'll just get better from here.
Current LD goal(s): look at my dream body, talk with a dream character and look at them closely

well, if you understood that you were dreaming, you were lucid. It's simple as that  Lucidity = knowing you're dreaming. Dream control = "I'm dreaming... which means I can do anything I want!"
Current LD goal(s): meditate

Dream Control doesn't necessarily mean you have to be lucid, though - it's certainly possible to feel like a almighty lord over everything without questioning it.

I had this, too.
I was talking about Lucid Dreaming with a friend and woke up feeling stupid I didn't realize it was a dream.
