Full Size Exposure

Here it is, the first of July, and I woke up in a hotel room. Wait a minute; it was my bedroom. Why would I think I woke up in some random hotel room? Oh, it’s because I finally upgraded my life by getting a full size bed! Yes, I am truly a real boy now. Yesterday morning I got the new bed delivered to the house then in the evening I went shopping for new sheets and a comforter. I toured Ross for a good deal but Ross was not so Rossome (get it? Ross + Awesome. If you’re rolling your eyes right now, I give full credit to my friend Zoe for that joke; blame her). After the Ross let down, Sears truly showed their softer side with five aisles of bed sets and pillows that were on sale. My Saturday evening became a night of adoring my new setup.

So, waking up this morning with a new bed and a new spread, it felt like it didn’t belong to me (hence the hotel experience). A few months ago, Shawna and Rebecca toured my bedroom and I received the Feng Shui report, and I failed. There were certain things I lacked like plants, the right usage of the space in the room, and a larger bed. My life has been confined to the twin size bed. Growing up it was a bunk bed; then in high school, it was a loft bed, which was the same experience besides no one underneath me. College was a twin size bed since I lived on campus all four years. After college, a girl I knew sold me her twin size bed and that was what I used since. So, the change is something definitely beneficial.

Even as I write this, I am laying on the new pad. It’s great, there is so much space that I can be a hypotenuse; look I am lying diagonally across the mattress! Oh, wait, let me turn the other way, oh, I am still a hypotenuse and I am not falling over. Such sweet times.

Yeah, I remember senior year when I finally upgraded to a "big-girl bed," as my friend Allie put it. It has made all the difference, I tell ya.

A great world of difference, indeed.
