Sleeping Beauties: A Poll

[Beltmann]

Since I am in fact a Nosferatu, undead, and sleep during the day, I also put in earplugs and sometimes tie a bandana around my eyes. If I had my way, I'd sleep in a darkened pod of gel warmed to 98.6 degrees.

I can't be sure of my positions as I am sleeping because, well, I'm asleep. I have been told that I am very still and quiet sleeper.

 

To fall asleep I have to get in position, however. My position for falling is on my side, either left or right works, with my opposite knee up almost touching my chin.

Jesus. That is me 100%. And I have also been told that I am very still and quiet. More SAB coincidences, Miss Chris

Somehow this doesn't surprise me a bit!

 

My favorite is to have my lover's leg crossed over my bottom leg matching the position of my angled leg.

 

WTMI!

Is your avatar Samantha Brown?

 

I envy her job. Talk about a charmed life.

 

Yes, it is Samantha Brown. I love all her shows. I want her job, but she's just too likeable to envy!

[Sir Stewart]

Is she the same Samantha Brown who lived in Bob Dylan's house for about 4 or 5 months?

[froggie]

and he never got around to sleeping with her!

Stomach. I used to sleep with my head burried in the pillow but since I broke my nose I've been paranoid about that.

 

I have a friend that sleeps with his head burried in the pillow and his butt straight up in the air. I guess that's what happens when you let your kids watch barney....

Either stomach or the cat-curl.

 

If it's stomach night, feet must be dangling off the end of the bed. I've never figured a comfortable way to sleep on the stomach with feet not off the end of the bed. really, what else do you do with them- flay them towards opposing walls? Flat on the "tongue" part? Toes ingrained in the bed?

 

If it's cat-curl on one side, I haven't figured how to lay the "free" hand. I usually contort it so the wrist and fingers curl back toward my feet. It looks very uncomfortable, but works for me.

 

Either way, there can be only a small amount of pillow between my head and the bed. Just a slight elevation of the head/neck from the bed proper. The pillow must be very malleable, too, so as to contort it into efficient shapes.

 

Our bed is a king-size and extremely comfortable, so I don't need a lot of pillow work. Plus, if one of us (or a kid hops into bed in the middle of the night) squirms it's barely noticeable anyway.

 

Of course, the above positions/requirements are all worthless if I've had a few drinks on a weekend night. In this case, I could sleep in a dumpster of glass shards and excrement.
