(No Title)I've got to say we love our new Select Comfort queen-sized dual-control air mattress. We're able, just as they advertise, to choose our individual levels of softness and firmness. When one of us tosses and turns, therefore, the other is rarely disturbed, but remains blissfully unaware of the partner's turmoil. When the body's pressure points become aggravated by some whisper of imperfection on the mattress's part, a touch of an individual button corrects the difficulty, and individual repose is restored. Our old, conventional double-sized box spring mattress has been banished to the basement. Here in the midwest, having a bed in the basement is a sound strategy, being in "Tornado Alley" as we are. Our old, conventional bed, which began its life when we were newlyweds, has come upon hard times. In fact, it became so impossible to sleep at any edge of the perimeter, because of our constantly seeking out the center as a young couple, that we were forced to sleep "stuck in the middle with you," whether we felt that strongly about each other or not. For some unexplainable reason, it is the outside edges that have acquired the bumps, lumps, sprung springs and pokey things. The only place that feels comfortable is the two feet in the center, where we slept, together. But, you know, eventually you've just got to get some rest. You get tired of saying, "Honey, wake up, you're having a bad dream," and "Can't you just lie still for a few minutes, until I get to sleep?" You're not sure you want to keep meeting in the middle. Still, I have to say, I'm looking forward to tornado season.
