Being able to make decisions in a dream is normal, right? I think strategically in my dreams, mull over advantages and disadvantages and plan my response the same way I would while awake - with less clarity though. Sometimes I get so carried away that takes up the whole dream. I don't think that's atypical.

I also get pissed off when I recognize something that's logically contradictory or impossible and realize it's a dream - although I miss a lot of obvious tells.
