Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In your bed = under the covers?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What's the difference between in your bed and on your bed?

I had firm rules about this when I lived in a studio. When I got up in the morning, I would make my bed and from then on, only sit on it.

So exciting, Brenda!!

I did have a big dog in the house when I lived with DX, and that was okay, though.

Did anyone else go "Bwuh?" and think of DX Machina, and wonder where you missed backstory?

That's a good rule, in a studio. I wouldn't ever have managed to follow it though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. So if it's a hot night and you're not using covers, you're not in bed? Just on it?

I could absolutely never keep a rule about only sitting on my bed during the day. I need my naps.

Brenda, this is very exciting. And cool.

Lying down and sleeping is different.

Well, yeah. But I don't see how that affects my inability to only sit on a bed during the day. I would totally lie down on it for my naps, and under covers if the temperature decreed it.

I have no problem with you napping! Me, I don't get back in bed after I wake up. Now that I have a multi-room apartment, I barely go in my bedroom in between waking up/getting dressed and going to sleep at night.

I wasn't judging you, you know. Just talking about my experience.

All the stuff I use in a day can't theoretically fit in my living room, and the mess that it is would be dramatically increased if I move stuff around.

I know that sleep experts and love feng shui people say all you should do in your bed is sleep or have sex, but really. Computing, reading, sewing...plus I have a bed in the living room to further exacerbate the line blurring.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What's the difference between in your bed and on your bed?

For me, it's the under the covers thing. (even on hot days, I have to have a sheet covering me.)

I also don't want pets on my pillows. I don't always win that one, but I usually do.

Right, me too.
