So I'm taking a victory nap. Okay, I'm not. I don't nap. I just can't do it. It's probably because I am not a very evolved human. The more I think about it the more it becomes clear that evolutionarily speaking I am not doing too well. I'm short, just like the humans of yore. The whole trend of people getting bigger is not affecting me. At all. I have no tolerance for the sun, which I feel is something we should have all developed by now. It has been around forever. I am pretty sure I only have 'flight' instincts. Most people can now fight their instincts and enjoy scary movies or haunted houses and power through the fear, but my body is so stuck in the cave-man days that if I sense any danger I am sooooo outta there. My body is physically incapable of learning the proper way to type on a keyboard because on I primal level I reject technology. I think my appendix is useful and pulling its weight as far as being a functioning organ goes. And then, of course, theres the whole 'I can only sleep in the nighttime' thing. Because my inner self knows I should be up farming, or gathering things, or whatever, while the sun is out. In pokemon terms, maybe I need a firestone or moonstone or something to evolve? But if pokemon taught me anything, its that if you are happy being a pleasant little charmander, don't try to evolve into a charmeleon or charizard because then you will become really rude and no one will like you.
But thats not what I wanted to talk about. I want to talk about the new bed I got, and how I think it is too firm. Is it? I really don't know. I am doubting all I know to be true. Its comfy, and I slept fine on it, but I am so used to my super old, worn in the middle, mushy gushy mattress I can't tell. Its not a pillowtop, so maybe thats the problem? Are we supposed to know what makes a good bed and what doesn't? Am I at an age where I should be worrying about my back? Can I get a focus group over here and everyone take a turn testing the bed and let me know? Will it get softer over time? The cat likes it, but he also sleeps in the bathtub, so he doesn't get an opinion. Taking it back or exchanging it would be a big decision. I'll sleep on it. (see what I did there? good one right?)
This is the biggest stressor in my life right now. Guys, it is SO hard being me.
