Bed

[prog]

The air mattress I've been using as a bed sprang a leak a few days ago. While I can use scotch tape and a business card in such as way as to patch it so that it no longer goes sssssss as soon as I reinflate the mattress, I still inevitably wake up flat against the hardwood a few hours later. Somewhere I have the official patch kit for it, but I can't bring myself to look for it.

Upon waking up this morning I told myself that it's time to buy a bed. I have no reason not to do so now; I can claim neither poverty nor lack of space as reasons to continue to practice of floor-crashing. Beds are hard to move, is really the only thing. But maybe if I don't think about moving, I'll actually live here for more than eight months or whatever.

Alas, I saw these comments only after I returned from Sleep-a-Rama. I ended up ordering a full-size bed; that with a nite stand plus delivery cost me just over $400, which I think is pretty good.

I'm kind of feeling like I rushed at the deal instead of investigating futonity, but I think it will suit me well for the nonce.
