Default Lucid dream?

I had an interesting experience this morning. I'll write out a timeline to explain it better.

11:55PM - go to bed, set alarm for 6:30AM

~12:25AM -fall asleep

5:55AM - Wake up because of something (can't remember if it was having to go to the washroom or something else, anyways, I woke up). Decide to go to bed since I still have some time to sleep.

6:30AM - wake up when alarm goes off and hit snooze on auto pilot, go back to bed.

6:39AM - wake up for the final time and get up.

Between 6:30-9 is where the interesting thing happened. When I "woke up" at 6:39 it didn't feel like I went back to bed. This is what I remembered:

That I was just lying on my bed dozing in and out of sleep, sort of like you do when you're reading something heavy (think physics) and are doing it while lying down. I also have a brace on my left hand's pinky finger because the last tip is broken. The brace is tapped. I definatelly recall the feeling of taking off the tap to remove the brace (the usual thing I do every morning when I go to shower) and that awkard feeling of my pinky when I first "set it free" and start to move it around (since it's been pointing straight for nearly 23hs straight).

When I "woke up" at 6:39 though, on the alarm, I was in a sleeping position and my brace was still on. Nothing remotely close to what I experienced had happened.

Any ideas if that's what a lucid dream feels like or is it just some interesting occurance?
