A post for the sake of posting...

Literally, the most exciting (exciting good - not exciting bad...there's been plenty of exciting bad) thing that's happened lately is getting a new mattress. There is no better measure of how old one is by how excited one gets about a new mattress - my sorrow over no longer saying "I'm twenty-____" was trumped by my desperate need to not wake up in the morning with lower back pain. Gone are the days of crashing on someones couch or floor and pole vaulting to a standing position. For the last few weeks, I would contemplate my method of getting out of bed so as to not break every vertebra in my Lombard spine. It's just a matter of time, now, until I sleep with literally 10 pillows propping up every appendage of my body up like my mother. I have included a picture - not the actual mattress that's in my bedroom now - we had to cover that up ASAP with our allergen cover!!!!! Pathetic!!!!!
Notice the marshmallow-like quality it has. Lots of memory foam...lots of springs...I believe they call it an "ultra-plush, super pillow top". And, yes, I still sleep with my body pillow...
