Talk to the Goat
Whee! I have first comment.
And, dude, that dorm room's not quite right... I can still see wall!
Mine was full of pictures of friends. Ah... residence. The food was never any good...
This was on the first day, which is why I am awkwardly posing...this god-awful picture hung on my door to "identify" me I guess...but I only lived in res for 1 short month, so I probably never had time to get it right!
Jay, OMG- You look so *sweet and innocent* in your dorm room. Did you dr. the photo? 
----- As for breaking in beds, all areas of one's home must be "christened" approriately from all angles of the dang-L...
That must have been some _intense_ reading to break a bed.
So, I see that I'm not the only one who gets weirdly attached to inanimate objects.
Reading in bed is the best way to break in a new bed...oh yes.
You HAVE to check out here for the best sheets ever.
"Well, it couldn’t have been that terrifying, because we didn’t put down our books, we were really into them, so we shot each other looks but kept on reading away."
Hilarious, Jay, hilarious.
Love your breaking the bed story! (Solid way for the bed to finish out it's existence, BTW.)
I bought a new, luxurious bed when I moved recently, and was somewhat mortified to see that it was so big relative to the room, that it *really* made a statement. Kinda similar to wearing those really big hoop earrings.)
Oh, P.S., maybe I'll be in trouble for gushing here, but you have the cutest button nose.
Wow, Chick, did I see velvet...Boy, I can't imagine the fun of scrubbing my nosebleeds out of that!
Becky: button nose? What the hell is that?
You are the only person I have ever known who broke a bed "reading." That's so cool! Especially that you tried to continue "reading" in the aftermath- that, my friend, is DEDICATION. 
That must've been one heck of a "book"! Recommendation?
Dang Jay, I thought that reading was a non-contact sport!! *snicker snicker*
Very proper for your bed to go out the way it should. Mine had better burst into flames before I get rid of it!!
Oh, btw, I'm very proud of you, you got your link ups on your blog!! Woohoo!
do gals think Voltron sheets are sexy? not having all the luck.
Ahhh the stories that furniture could tell if it could talk. Vehicles were that way for me. Thanks for a delightfully interesting slice of life.
Reading in bed can be fun. Watch out! Make sure you wear your safety belts!
Can I link to your blog on mine, Jay?
Yes, of course you may.
I'm just dandy tonight. And yourself?
pff
furniture are friends. look at the IKEA incident. and did i ever tell you, jay, that i find you oh-so-pretty?
Even then we were still kind of reading a little
BEST BIGGEST laugh today BWAHAHAHHAHA
(cue creepy music) we got engaged pre-reading in bed... our parallels are getting too weird. We were rolling around and giggling and he off hand asked if I would marry him. I said I would and then he pulled out a ring. I about died
now THAT'S the kind of sex I want to be having!!!
By the way, thanks for your support, you are wonderful and insightful and brilliant!
boys are so dumb.
Awwww, winnie the pooh, how sweet. (Between me and you, a straight guy with Martha Stewart sheets needs to be teased just a little bit!)
Reading in bed is a good way to put it. We call it "Mommy and Daddy are talking right now." and of course they ask at the door "Are you finished talking yet?" If I used the book story, I can say it's a really long book.
Man, I miss couples' reading time so much. I am fine with being single except for the whole "reading alone" thing...that gets old fast.
Great post, Jay!
hehe great story - I can't help but laugh - we've had a bit of similar issue. Only... we burned ours instead of dumping it in the dumpster LOL.
We finally had a nice new mattress and had been on it for a while when we finished our upstairs room and had to move up there. I say now that when we finally sell this place, whoever buys it also gets the bed because yeah, we had to literally take the stairs down to get it upstairs!
Everyone needs some good Martha Stewart sheets.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
I recently got a new bad a couple months back as well. I like it except for the fact it's about 1 foot higher off the ground than my last one so I always feel like I'm climbing out of a monster truck in the morning.
You've gotta get Egyptian Cotton sheets, Jay, 400 Thread count at least! Ever since I bought some (eBay) my life has been 100% better. You will not regret spending so much on sheets once you have slept in them just once. And you'll never go back!! It's heaven! You can thank me for this advice after your first night in your new sheets.
Wonderful...reading in bed. Yes, I was on that chapter and the bed fell...one of the slats just moved and boom...we went down. ( i don't know if that pun is intended or not)
Enjoy the bed. Good Beds have a Dali Lhama like quality to them...curl up, my friend
My bed is my most favourite place in the whole wide world so I get your post completely. My lovely man and I have managed to break 3 beds in our time together, sadly, we have never been reading when it has happened!
I feel quite depressed, I've never had a bed break under me and I feel like I'm missing out. Still, when I was with my ex-wife on one of the few nights we shared a bed the canopy fell on us once.
omg what a great book! I have read that one.. enjoyed it very much
Ahhhh... new bed *dreams*
When I move. I've promised myself that's the first purchase (after toilet roll)
(oh and I don't hate french canadians)
Bon tardi!
What a great pic! Loved the post. Reminds me of my college days. Whew...at my age, I'm lucky I can still remember!
Have a fabulous weekend!
*CHEERS*
