Slept totally shitty not because the bed
wasn’t comfortable and I’m not already used to it, but because I kept
overheating like crazy. Even with the blankets pushed down to my ass and the
fan blowing on me, the part of my body touching the mattress would feel like it
was on fire. Why does this keep happening to me? This has been a Cali thing.
It’s got to be either the peri or the extra weight; I’m just not sure which.
There are people way heavier than me yet they don’t overheat in their sleep
like this, do they? I mean, Tom doesn’t have this problem. So yeah, maybe it’s
time to check out that waterbed mattress cover that Tom found in China for $200
that you fill with water and it either cools or heats you, depending on how you
have it set. Hopefully, I could put the new mattress pad over that one, if we
got it, and the sheets would still fit. This mattress pad is absolutely
fantastic. Best one I ever had. I hope the heating and cooling effect will
still work with it.
Let’s see… something about a cat and
talking to Bob is what I remember for the vague dreams I had. Didn’t like the
detailed one I had where Tom told me the car was eaten by termites and we had
to figure out how to come up with the money for a new car. We seemed to be
renting somewhere in the dream and not as well off as we are in reality.
Really hope we don’t have car troubles
ahead! We still gotta do the roof.
Finished reviewing the Italian skill tree.
Spanish review is up next.
Later…
I’m enjoying the last of the peace before
somebody does something… landscaping… car door slamming, whatever. Tom said he
was surprised I didn’t get woken up by the racket the park was making yesterday
afternoon. He said it sounded like they were dragging something metallic along
the streets. Probably has to do with some kind of landscaping project.
The Twenties are back on their service
trip. Some work van was at their place yesterday and of course that meant I had
to listen to annoying doors slamming. “Electrical” was the only word I could
make out on the van. I’m sure it will be back today too, whatever it was. Since
I’m going to be up throughout most of the day, I’m going to escape into the
bedroom in a couple of hours.
Oh, and Bob and Virginia had a big party on
Sunday. Virginia’s birthday? Pretty sure I read that she was born in May while
he was born in September. I think she turned 85.
Since I was too tired to walk (that’s why I
get out there every day I can as I know that within just a few days I’ll sleep
shitty and be too tired), I worked out on the Bowflex.
Marie sent a message asking me to text her
(some new service she got) so I sent her a few last night. She probably went to
bed right after I sent them and isn’t up yet. Her hair is gray now and she
looks like she’s aged quite a bit in just the time we’ve reconnected, though
she’s still skinny.
We looked into that Chinese mattress
topper, but not only are the Chinese not very good with English but they’re
also not very good with describing their products very well and providing
decent pictures.
We then looked into buying a waterbed liner
and sack and building the frame ourselves but the sack would be too long for
the platform I have.
I just don’t understand why waterbeds have
gotten so scarce and so expensive.
I exchanged a few emails with Sirius
yesterday, and they said they have no record of my email or name being
associated with an account of theirs. So maybe the email I got asking me to
confirm was just a scam where they hope you do have an account and to snag your
password info once you sign in.
