We have The Original Mattress Factory in Ohio and have been happy with out mattress purchases from there.
That's where we got ours, and we really like it.
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Not really seeing a downside there, Connie.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Since DH and I are seriously thinking about moving, we're looking at getting rid of books we can reread on Kindle (if we are ever likely to reread them) like mysteries or novels which were good, but probably not compelling enough to reread. There are books which are not kindleable, like art books or old favorites, so those we will keep, of course.
Lots of culling in our future.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Much as I love having physical books, I'm facing the truth that it's getting harder to read them. An e-reader that allows me to enlarge the text as much as I want is better. Also better for saving space. The only books I want to keep are the ones that can't be downloaded and a few favorites for nostalgia.
I probably should get a new mattress but I have other things I want/need to spend that money on.
My hands are so cold I can barely type. I should do something about that.

I'm sorry, Matt. How awful for your friend.

Yeah, I did that earlier.

Zen and Scrappy, do remember that you don't really own e-books - can't loan them, read them and then give them away, or even pass them on when you die. Much as I love my Kindle for all the reasons you both mentioned, I still buy and keep print books for those authors/titles I really feel compelled to OWN. Until the copyright laws change for the better (not likely under the upcoming regime) I'm hanging on to most of my keeper shelves out of paranoia.
