Two nights ago, I slept on a couch. It wasn't long enough and my neck got a bit sore from leaning on the edge of it. When I woke up the sun was beating down into my eyes and onto my skin, probably giving me several melanomas.
Last night I shared Ashley's bed, which is a king size SINGLE. Meaning there wasn't very much room. SO basically the last two nights I have had not very comfortable sleeps.
I have come to realise the value of sleeping in my own bed. It's a good thing. I only moved into this bed, in my new house, a week ago, and I really needed some reason to start liking it and finding it comfortable. It is a bit of a downgrade from my last bed, which was a queen sized (double) water bed. In other words, probably the most comfortable bed ever.
This new bed is a double bed, which is actually a rather hard futon with a soft mattress-like cover on it. It's not UNcomfortable, but it's really not hte most comfortable bed there is.
However after sleeping on a couch and then being squished between Ashley and a wall with no room for my arms, I think I will find my bed very comfortable now.
Which is a good thing.
It's a little bit like the story of the woman who thought her house was too loud, so she visited a wise man for advice. He told her to get a cat, then a dog, then more animals after that, one at a time, until her house was extremely noisy. Then he advised her to remove all the animals and her house was suddenly very quiet and peaceful. That's the situation with my bed I think. As long as I'm comparing it to my old really comfortable bed, it won't seem good, but compared to a couch, it's pretty darn great.
Beds rock.
