In the ongoing saga of minutia that is my life, my latest foe is a full-size box-spring, particularly my fiancée’s box-spring. You see in an effort to peacefully join possessions we kept my mattress, which we both agreed was more comfortable, and her bed and box-spring, which she liked the look of. The rub lies the fact that a box-spring makes a mattress exceptionally softer. Who would want this? My back now sounds like a Rubik’s cube every time I move.
According to Wikipedia, the box-spring has three uses: to raise the height of the bed, to protect the mattress, and to create a flat and firm surface for the mattress to rest on. I say crap to all this. We moved the mattress to the floor last night and things were immensely improved. I think college kids have the right idea. I’m chopping the bed and spring up tonight and hanging some black-light posters.
Yes, if you are wondering, I am slightly difficult to live with.
