New Smoker?s Dream

Several of us have talked about the smoker's dream, the one in which we break our quits in our sleep. Then we wake up, both glad that it was just a dream and kind of wondering if that's all that it was. 
 
I had another last night, but it was different.  This time, I never reached the point of smoking. In the dream, I was tempted, but never actually smoked the cigarette. I woke up before I had decided whether to do it or not. 
 
I'm not sure how to read this one. Either:
1) I'm internalizing self control on a deeper level 
2) I missed out on a great opportunity to "smoke" without real consequences 
3) My alarm went off earlier than expected 
 
Still thinking about smoking about 1 time every 3-4 days. The dream triggered the first desire in 4 days this time.  But I still seriously think it represented some kind of subconscious shift.
