Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

The mattresses at my Macy's were upstairs in the back by the bridal registry and luggage. I only saw them because I was looking for a bathroom. FWTW

I got an envelope from my Irrigation District yesterday and I actually put off opening it until this morning because I thought I might be in trouble for using too much water but it turns out it's just higher than standard concentrations of disinfection byproducts in my area. Whew?

Ugh, this dumpster fire of a year cannot end soon enough. I just found out that my good friend and co-worker who recently had brain surgery was seizing last night (she was in the hospital for a pulmonary blood clot) and they found out that the spot left where her tumor had been removed has more than doubled in size in the last week. She's a bit more responsive today and they're talking about her being able to go to rehab/home care, but it looks like she's not going to get the chance to travel with her husband before the end.

Oh, Matt, I'm sorry.

Jesse, I think Sears is probably a good call. The last mattress I bought was from American Mattress, but I think they're only in Illinois.

Suzi, I'm so sorry. It's so hard.

Matt, I'm sorry for your friend. I feel like I've been hearing way too much about brain tumours lately.

Jesse I bought my mattress at Sears 8 years ago and it was a good pick. (It was middle range, nice, thick pillow-top. Still comfortable today. My only regret is that I didn't buy a protective cover for it.) At the time, the Sears brand, at least in Canada, were made by Sealy. I don't know if that is still true.

We have The Original Mattress Factory in Ohio and have been happy with out mattress purchases from there.

ION, I am back at home and at work. What the actual heck. And also Bah. I needed more vacation.

That's where we got ours, and we really like it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, Matt. I'm sorry to hear that.

Mattress success! I hope it works out. The guy was so happy I bought one, after lying on all of them! I have to say, the most expensive one in there felt great. (I did not buy that one.)

I'm debating getting a Marvel Unlimited subscription and shifting my comics subscriptions to digital. I've a hard copy person all my life, but I'm realizing that between limited storage space, no real interest in collectability, and aging eyesight, having a physical copy of a comic is more nostalgic than useful. And I won't have to drive to the store to get my books.

Not really seeing a downside there, Connie.
