    Okay, so I've gone a little too far but my bed is covered with stuffed animals. They all have names, and all have "personalities" - the collectible Grimace from McDonalds likes french fries, the ancient teddy bear likes to go on adventures, the little otter is a spy (and he usually goes in my pack when we go hiking and gets photographed at the summit), the snowman wants us to move further north, and so on.

    Yes, I'm an adult. Yes, I'm married. Yes, my husband has actually picked out and even named many of them. Yes, I know I need therapy.

    Now I feel boring...

    We *have* a stuffed foxy who I cuddle with sometimes, but she 'guards' the bed alcove, mostly... GF is an "active sleeper" and will simultaneously steal blankets/remove anything 'in her way' in her sleep... or wrap me up in blankets and hold me down if I'm tossing/turning too much... so our sheets have to be well-tucked and one pillow each. Every time the well-made bed is turned into a disaster area, I look at her (or vice versa) and say "This is why you can't have nice things!" Though... I think she gets to say it to me more.

    who could ask for a more cuddly toy?

    cool! During this last heat wave, when temps soared close to 100 and the air was so humid you could cut it with a knife, I took to checking the weather at assorted towns in Alaska and other "far north" locations, just to remind myself that there are still places that don't suck.

    One Green Lion (who goes by the same name) that I caught at the Zulu parade a few years ago, and who has a big belly (comforting to put my hand on when the BF isn't there with his belly) . Green Lion was recently joined by "Kissy Kat," and of course there are the three real kitties who frequently adorn (or hog) the bed.

    (Geez, I read that as "Green Loin...")

    On my bed, (king-size soft-sided waterbed in a sleigh-bed frame with wrought iron flowers and leaves in the middle of the headboard) I have a quilt I made for my mom over the footboard, seven pillows for me and four for BF, usually some jammies hanging on the footboard, and BF's contribution, a (real) coyote skin- head, feet, tail and all. We call him Mr. Coyote. He lays quietly at the foot of the bed. His fur is very think and soft. My mom collected bears- I have two that I gave her that I got back when she died, but they live on a chair. I also have a few Beanie Babies here and there.

    I usually get my cycling clothes out the night before. I decide by wearing something I didn't wear last time. I always wear the same shorts, unless they are in the wash.

    Two cats share my bed too. You are all right, pets take up way more room than they should, but I don't have the heart to tell my two loveable siamese they have to move. Sometimes I am even willing to take a smaller section of the bed than they have! One of my siamese, has to use one of my pillows too....and just for his head (he isnt curled up on it)! He sleeps with his head on the pillow, and then stretched long like a person beside me. It makes e laugh, so I put up with it.

    We've got 3 poodles (a standard poodle, a miniature, and a cockapoo) and a Maine Coon cat. And they all sleep on the bed. Which is why DH and I have a California King bed - everyone sleeps on the bed, and DH and I would be on the floor if we didn't have the extra space. Because between the standard (who manages to stretch himself out to the largest size possible), and the Maine Coon (who requires a Certain Amount of Space From The Dogs), it is pretty cozy! But we'd be lost without them!
