Home is where the queen-sized bed is.
Because I generally get so little of it, I have become a connoisseur of sleep. Oh, I'll sleep when and wherever the opportunity presents itself. But I have a deep appreciation for really good sleep.
My bed in my apartment is a standard twin... the same This End Up furniture I've had since I was twelve. At an even five foot ten, I just barely fit on the mattress when I'm fully stretched out, and when my head is positioned comfortably on the pillow, my toes dangle off the end of the bed.
Here at my dad's place, I get to sleep in a queen-sized bed for the first time EVER (not counting hotels). I feel like a real grown-up! I'm still not completely used to it. It's so BIG! I wake up in the morning curled up in a little ball on one side of the mattress and then realize that HA! I can take up as much space as I want! And then I do.
