Our long national nightmare is finally over

Our new mattress came today! It's firm foam mattress that we bought from a locally owned store and it was made right here in TN. They hauled off that torture chamber we laughingly called our old mattress and I hope they burn it or destroy it so no one else has to suffer another night on that thing.

Since I'm a progressive political junkie and since today is Super Tuesday I probably won't be going to sleep on the new mattress until the wee small hours of the morning because I'll be up late watching the returns. But I know it's going to be oh so nice when I do get to lay down on that bad boy. Yay new mattress! Yay locally owned furniture stores! Yay mattress factories in TN!

Woot!

I recently got a firm foam pillow...I love it. Love it.

Damn that looks comfy. If I were you I would be having a nap right now. Quick, while no one is looking.

That's purty, but too clean. I'm used to mattresses that are busy looking what with all the floral patternings and all that other ugly shit. You'd better get busy.

Ship the old one to Gitmo. With your luck, you'll end up sleeping on it again!

You know we're old when the quality of the mattress impacts the quality of sleep.

This is a great reminder to get a new mattress. I'm sick of pulling cracked springs out of my flesh.

I want a new mattress too!

I'm jealous. I've been coveting a foam mattress for several years now ever since I lay down on one in a mattress store.

I refuse to get caught up in an unwinable mattress war.

I'm a futon man myself

All-It was a good night's sleep on the new mattress last night.

I like the little snack holding areas all over it.
