Partial separation & weird ending, ideas?

[Eloquence]

Hey all, the other night was the closest I've ever come to having a fully concious OBE. Ok, so here's what happened:
Ok, so I started out in a weird dream, the whole place looked like a scene out of Alice In Wonderland. I dont recall much of it other than I walked up to this gate, which was just gargantuan, at least 5 stories high. Very comical.

It was at that point I became lucid, but instead of just trying to project I tried to see things a little more clearly. I think I was trying to see the dream through my eyes, not my mind (if that makes sense). I tried this for a minute or so with little success (I have done it in the past, almost).

Abandoning that, I went back to the standard projection attempt routine. The Alice In Wonderland scene vanished and was replaced by darkness. It was as if I could feel my physical body while still asleep, it kind of felt 'not normal' somehow. I tried to separate my physical and astral bodies. I got so close! I could feel my physical body laying still while I was moving an arm of some sort (im guessing it was my astral arm), I freed my head too. Meanwhile I kept hearing this weird noise, like a grinding of metal noise.

Then for some reason they snapped back in place and I woke up. But... thats where it gets weird. I think I woke up, but my vision was kinda blurry and my body was so damm sluggish, It was such an effort to roll over. Which is when I noticed a dark 'shadow', more like a cloud or something in the air beside my bed, maybe 1.5 metres away? But I was seeing two of it, like double vision, but only of the shadow thing. I blinked a few times and the shadow was replaced by a body suspended in mid-air looking at me, which scared the absolute crap out of me! Then im not sure what happened next, but the next thing I know, Im facing the other way (horizontally)(as if I had rolled back over) and I was fully awake, able to move and seeing correctly.
