why yes, this IS my life, thanks

The people came and got Matthew's bunkbeds yesterday, leaving a big ol' empty space in his room that's in desperate need of vacuuming. Matthew came to me earlier today and asked if he could sleep in y bed, since he didn't think the couch would be comfortable enough. I said fine, he could have nights, and I would just sleep days this week, no big deal.

So we got me settled on the couch and he showered and came down for his pills...and then said, "are you staying down here all night?" I said yeah, because what was my other option? Sit at my desk and wait for my feet to explode from the swelling? He says then, "I don't really want to sleep up there if you're down here... so I think I'll sleep on the other couch." *facepalm*

So, here we are, at 2:10a: me on the small couch with my feet up... and Matthew snoring and moving restlessly on the other couch. Oi.

(And no, me and him both in my bed at the same time isn't really an option; we're both too used to having the whole bed to sleep on, and he's waaaaaaaay too restless a sleeper, all wiggly and shifting and moving.)

I think it's going to be a long week, y'all.

Man, Kim.

Nothing ever goes easily for you, does it?

I'd probably end up bored, if it did *g* And it's not like this is a huge thing or anything, just--y'know. My life *g*

(Also? I want you to go look at my user pictures and note that I've uploaded some more popslash ones -- obviously, from the one I used for this post! *g*)

Also also? THERE IS NOTHING ON TV AT 4AM, OMG.

I've looked and have to say, I love the one you're using!

It's been a while since I was up at 4am, but I imagine it means lots of informercials.

A LOT of infomercials. *shudder* I found an ep of Little House on the Prairie, though, which is an improvement over the other *g*

Mmm. The Cult of Chris Kirkpatrick ;) Such a wonderful thing, with wonderful initials... *eg*

What about making him a pallet on the floor? (Or making you a pallet on the floor) of either the livingroom or the bedroom? I did that with Mim for a while. She wanted to be close to me, but the bed wasn't shareable, so she slept on the floor beside it.

Good luck, babe.

Would a pallet on the floor upstairs work for one of you, using the cushions from the couch either on the floor of your room or his?

*HUGS*
