RE: The Right Now Thread


I have an old-school waterbed too.  One time all the guys in the family were up deer hunting and I invited my mom to spend the night.  She'd never slept in a waterbed before, so that in itself was an experience for her.  Anyway, she woke me up in the middle of the night and asked me how come the sheets were all wet.  "I dunno; did you wet the bed??" 

Turns out one of the little tiny nails that holds the liner in place worked itself out and poked a hole in the bed.  It had been leaking for a few days and I didn't know because I hadn't slept on that side of the bed. 

I teased her for years about wetting the bed when she slept over.  biggrinbiggrin

lmao.gif I'm pretty sure this was all Eddie. Obviously it is manicure time again. I keep seeing the commercials for the "Peticure"... the power pet nail filer... I cannot see Eddie sitting still for that like the cat in the commercial. He's usually good for the first paw and maybe a couple toes on the second... but then he gets bored and goes tornado on me.

I should get a new bed, but I just can't bring me to. I LOVE this bed. It's uber comfortable and heated. I hate being cold. I'd stay in it all winter long if I could!

Oh, I like that one.  I'll have to store that for my next witty comeback.

Yeah, I love the warmth of my bed in the winter!!  Before we had central air, we used to turn the heater down in the summer and the bed would be nice and cool during the summer....sometimes it got too cold though, then it would take a few days to heat back up. 


I've been wondering if that "Peticure" thing would really work??  I was thinking about ordering one for my Lab's nails.  Right now I have a safety type nail clipper for her, but she still isn't too fond of having her nails trimmed.  It usually takes lots of treat bribes to get the job done.  hmm

I remember that scene from Dumb and Dumber where Lloyd is having his trimmed with a belt sander.  Sparks flyin'...

Hehehee... so Eddie isn't the only guy around with some serious tree climbers, huh?

I think the principle behind the "Peticure" is probably sound. I can see it being much better for dogs than cats though. Most cats don't have that kind of patience for having their feet futzed with.

As for the bed... it's probably going to be with me til I can't patch the mattress anymore. Me and Eddie are the only ones who sleep in it, so I don't have to worry about anyone else's issues. I do turn it down a bit during the summer, but have already turned it up to "thermo-nuclear meltdown" for the winter. Side? I pick no side... generally I sleep diagonally as to take up as much space as humanly possible. I spent years practically sleeping on the rail, so I kinda did a 180 when the bed became mine all mine!

Great story about the "bed-wetter". I'd have a field day with that myself. giggle.gif

Right now, it's time for me to say good night.  My youngest girl is sitting here giving me "the look" because she wants to check her Myspace page and chat with her friends. 

Have a great night guys!!  smile

Mema, I actually wrote a song about that a few years ago called "Cold War Blues"  about fighting for the covers all night...(a corollary to sleeping on the rail smile )

I should send you the lyrics.

Please do! I'll probably love it!

Since he is no longer on illicit drugs, drinking, or being a screaming bunghole to me I rent my guest room to Kev. (He'd be homeless otherwise, and I don't want to have to deal with the kids on that point.) He came in to wake me up one morning because I overslept... he told me that he's never seen a person sleep spread eagle with their fingers AND toes stretched out before. I told him "no more overnight bed sharing for me!"

There is no reason to fib. If your dog sleeps next to you in bed, that's okay. I think most of us have been there, done that.

So, let me get this straight. You want me to believe that the dog isn't stealing your covers, a girlfriend isn't stealing your covers, but that you are indeed stealing your own covers? Next you are going to tell me the house is haunted and the ghosts are stealing your covers.

I know you have creativity. But I have to believe that it has happened to you at least once or twice. After all, don't you writers do a lot of writing from experience?

Okay, you broke me down Fuzzy...it did happen.

I was one of the three Stooges to replace Curly...and when we all slept in the same bed...Moe kept stealing the covwers.  Then he poked me in the eyes.  Can you believe it?
