We all connect to something on a spiritual level. Some people connect with Jesus, Buddha, Allah, etc. I on the other hand, connect spiritually with my bed. The one place where I can cocoon myself up and forget about everything I need to do. It is my procrastination nest and just a place of pure bliss. Sometimes peoples' hearts swell with joy when thinking about their boyfriends. But my heart swells when I think about my wonderful cloud. However, being a bed person does have some drawbacks.
1. The snooze button becomes your best friend.
And you will be late a lot because of it. When you are awakened by the death march to hell (Marimba for me), your bed just seems to wrap you up in a hug that is too difficult to escape.
2. You find every possible opportunity to lay in your bed.
Doing homework? Bed. Netflix? Bed. Working out? Bed.
3. When your alarm goes off the first thing you think about is when you get to go to bed later.
I'll miss you old friend. I love you.
4. You daydream about your bed throughout the day.
"Oh, I'm sorry what did you say? I was thinking about sleep."
5. Everything you need is always within reach of your bed.
Chargers, check. Phone, check. Laptop, check. Significant other? Well, I'll work on that one later.
6. ...And if it's not within reach of your bed, it's not worth it.
Low power? Guess I'm done watching Netflix because I'm not going to get my charger. Time for a nap!
7. You pass on plans just so you can lay in your bed.
And there is nothing better than a friend who is down to lay in bed and do nothing with you.
8. You feel constantly judged for being in your bed for so long.
Oh, what's that? You're having priorities? That's nice. No, I'm not going to clean my room.
9. Staying at a hotel or sleeping in someone else's bed just isn't the same.
Nothing compares. My bed is like the Ryan Gosling of the mattress world, no one is quite as beautiful.
10. Realizing that in fact, your bed is your happy place.
Nothing compares to that end of the night hug you receive from your mattress at the end of a long day. No one is ever as wonderful and welcoming as your mattress. And it will always be there when you need it.
