Mattress

One thing I'm realizing is how fortunate it is that I bought a Tempur foam mattress last year. Throughout last week I could only (barely) sleep (a couple of hours at a time) in one position (flat on my back). With any normal mattress this is painful and difficult in itself, but with waterbed or a memory-foam mattress it is possible. In short, last week I would have royally boffed if I hadn't had it.

I am also happy I splashed for a motorized bed which can raise the head rest in any position. I really needed that in the condition I was in last week. I'm not kidding.

Sounds like you should be calling that Ultramatic guy. :)

I had a back issue, and never really took care of it, I know suspect cracked coccyx. When my son was born I got to use the spare bed in the hospital (maternity was not very popular. I could adjust the bed however I wanted, and in just 4 days I was almost totally healed.

Get a good desk chair if you don't already have one, and an adjustable keyboard shelf.

Oh, welcome back.

Good to know it was a simple Tempurary problem. ;-)

Pascal, it's a good thing I don't own any guns. And that we're separated by thousands of miles. ;)

Joe, Joe, Joe... Watch your Tempur, man.

Oh, and I almost forgot the traditions:
"Comfy mattresses A.M.M.G.A.B.R.O.
Signed: a friend who won't tell his name."


(A.B.R.O., "a big rubbery one"... I wonder'n if that's how they make them Tempur mattresses?)

Okay, Pascal, that's it! The gloves have dropped. Let's do this thing!

What's the mattress?
Tempur
ature rising on the rink? (Or more aptly on the ring?)
How will we cover that incident? With the drapes of wrath? Why not keep it under the blanket?
Can't we settle this with a nice girly pillow fight instead?

Oh, and do pick up your gloves, before you get frostbite. You wouldn't want Santa to think you're a messy 112-y/o kid, he's coming soon and your locker room looks like a battle field...

BTW, "do" WHAT "thing"? I can do my big rubbery ones myself just fine, don't need help, thank you very much. Or very little, that depends on you.

[Perhaps we should re-open that Sophisticated Insults thread. Let me sleep on it and I'll get back to you.]

I haven't actually had a rubbery thing since I was in my late seventies! ;-)

Not even a piece of rubbery steak?
Gee, you must have a real good dentist.

I have everything in liquid form and hooked up to an I.V. My favourite is liquid Lays - I can't suck just one!

cue voice of Herbert from Family Guy:

Okay, you're starting to piss me off! ;-)

Herbert should follow your example, and start using tubes for his failing bodily functions. :-D
It would spare him some embarrassing moments in public.

Oops! Excuse me, have to go. My Mattress is calling, and she's got the cat-o'-nine-tails waiting for me. You have to beat the leather while it's warm!
