I’d best pee myself with excitement now, because in a few days doing so will void the warranty on my BRAND NEW MATTRESS!
Just some quick observations, because my head is swimming with all the stuff I need to do to, you know, make room for the damn thing:
1. I thought that going mattress shopping after working on my feet for six hours would be stupid. False! Best idea ever! Because when will I care most about how comfy my bed is? After I’ve worked a shift twice that long. Yes!
2. I also wondered how I would know which one was “the one.” Here’s how you know: you lie down, and without thinking about it, you close your eyes and the only thought in your head is how nice it would be to take a nap, right then. Sure, I imagined myself fast asleep as I tested out the other mattresses, but when I got to The One, I immediately forgot that my back hurt (and that I was in the middle of a gigantic warehouse furniture store). For a brief moment, it was just me and the bed. Aaaaahhhh.
3. Tomorrow I begin the task of dismantling my current bed and rearranging furniture. Lord, beer me strength.
Stay tuned!
