we’ve been staying down here at dj’s place in hermosa beach, which is where hmc has been while working during this gig. since dj’s away in mexico this week, he suggested we sleep in his big comfy tempur-pedic bed. the bed is fine, but the apartment is otherwise a little cold, especially at night. somehow we ended up without a decent comforter, so we’ve got this small comforter and an unzipped sleeping bag as blankets, which didn’t quite cover everything, so we ended up pulling in a couple of throw blankets from the living room as well.
but you end up sleeping with all these little throws that may or may not cover you as you try to sleep through the night. this is not unlike using dishtowels to keep you warm at night.
finally, i ask hmc, wait, so what do you normally use for sleeping at night? she replies, “uh, i just sleep in the sleeping bag.”
what?
are you kidding? it turns out she’s been sleeping in the sleeping bag on top of her bed for warmth since september. i am dumbfounded. HAVE I MARRIED A HOBO?
i took her out to target and bought a decent quilt and comforter so we can sleep like decent folk and not like those who ride boxcars.
Posted at December 26, 2005 10:44 PMhey, my man used to sleep in a sleeping bag under his desk at work during the winter* for a couple of years before we married…
now he complains that the sheets aren’t soft enough after I put the new ones we got for xmas on the bed after only one wash.
hurray for upgraded bedding!
*steph*
*he did have a 38ft boat/yacht that he lived on during the ‘summery’ months, but still? under the desk surrounded by a server cluster? egad!
