    Uh Oh, Found Myself Sleeping On The Triangle Of My Queen Size Bed Last Night

    I found myself sleeping asymmetrically on my queen size bed last night...what's wrong with me?

    I wouldn't worry till you try to figure out how to attach a ridge line to it!

    Mmm, you've got me thinking now. I could hang things on it or use it to help me get out of bed

    Alcohol stove + carpet = coffee + very mad wife.

    Also of interest-- Bathtub + Black Rits dye + 200 feet of white mule tape = very mad wife (but no black mule tape--caught me, dead to rights, before the deed was done). Contrary to popular opinion, it is NOT easier to seek forgiveness than permission. Again, I suffer that others might live.

    It's funny (and by funny I mean maddeningly frustrating). The Missus (who comes from a long line of ground dwellers, and can trace her ground-dwelling genealogy to the umpteenth generation) regards hanging as frivolous, yet 3 mornings out of five she's sleeping on the diagonal. We're talking 45 degrees sometimes, so that I wake up either with her feet draped over mine, or with a face-full of hair. The woman is a natural born hanger--just add horizontality and the suspension of your choice. But I have a five year plan in place to get her up in the air--the first step is to not let her catch me with any more packets of Rits dye. The second is to figure out how to remove dye rings from her favorite salad bowl .

    I am constantly laying on the diagonal in my bed and it really irks the wife when she has to push me back on my side in the middle of the night. You sound perfectly normal to me.

    Me too. The lay isn't any more flat, but it just feels more comfortable.
