Ok, so I just layed down and Beth lost her mind! :D

Apparantly, there are pillows, and then, there are pillows! The pillows I was using are, no doubt, the pillows that are for appearance sake only. The pillows that I was supposed to be using were the other pillows that were on the bed that I had kinda pushed over to her side. "MY" pillows looked so much more comfortable! Now I don't have no pillows at all!

Just wait, as quickly as she goes to sleep, I'm Using Them...ALL.
 
Yeah Shane I got that two apparently they are called shams they are just fancy pillows for show that go on top of the regular pillows. My wife finally gave up on me and just lets me sleep on them.
 
Some are for show and some are for go.......obviously Beth has her hands full with your training! :rofl:

I see Mr Adam Z is making some progress.....he at least has the terminology mastered ;)
 
Girly girls.
If you have to wonder what pillow to use, there's something wrong. Just give me a pillow I can use.
 
The thing with these shams (and they really are :)) is, if you aren't supposed to use them, where do you put them? They would wind up on the floor around me!
 
Seems like when you go to a hotel these days there are four times as many pillows, bolsters, shams, etc. than you would ever need. I always toss them on the chair, the floor, the other bed...

Whenever possible, I take my own pillows into hotel with me. Most places have these pillows that will wad up small enough to put in your pocket.

Yes, that bugs me too. You go into a "fancy" hotel (one with shams) and you have to call for an archaeologist to help you dig through the pillows to find the bed. They end up all on the floor making this fancy designer approved room look like a teenager lived there for a week. Say you want to set your computer down on the desk and do some work? Nope, have to move all their cr*p off the desk first. Where does that stuff end up? Floor, too.

Even worse, there is that "Body Pillow" that my wife got when she was pregnant with our daughters,... about 6' long, really soft and comfortable,.. so much so that she cuddles up with that every night :rolleyes:
 
After having a "go round" with my wife over that very subject, in my exasperation I pointed out that before getting married I never had a bed skirt, two shams and six decorative pillows on my bed. She split a gut laughing.

The other thing is that she can't get in an unmade bed. If for some reason its not made 10 minutes after we get up , and heaven forbid, still unmade when we get home late at night, she has to make it before getting in it. I pointed out that when she's away for whatever length of time the bed gets made 10 minutes before her expected arrival time. Of course I pointed out that I'm not doing any entertaining in the befroom while she's gone so why should it look its best?

When it's -15F for a week, that's pretty much what happens come bedtime. Blankets only go so far when the outer walls you're up against is approximately 2.5" thick.
 
The girlfriend and I have about 6 sham pillows that match the comforter we have on our bed. Our bed only gets made when we put new sheets on it and when we plan to have guests at the house who may want to meet the kittens (who get banished to our bedroom when company is around). The shams? Stacked nicely in the corner... have been for months. She was able to train me on many things in the past 9 months that we've been shacked up. My training in other areas still progresses. So far, this sham training hasn't stuck ;).

EDIT: I should mention that the comforter and pillows were all hers before we moved in together. In her apartment, her bed was made nearly every day, pillows and all. The comforter that was on my bed in my apartment? It's rotting in some dump somewhere in the greater Houston area. We use her old comforter in the guest room. Sigh. I guess I really have been trained in some areas.

Doncha be asking them to get rid of those extra pillows! I ask for extra feather pillows whenever I go to a hotel. In Munich this week, that translated into "sofabed and rollaway" :dunno: so I ended up with 3 beds, 8 pillows, and some extra towels. For "just me".
