The Odd Couple

I know everyone has their quirks and every relationship is different but I can't help but think we might be a little odd.

Not long after Mr.M and I started living (circa 2005) together we stopped sharing; blankets that is.
Mr is a huge blanket hog and I'm a light sleeper which was resulting in a lot of lost sleep....for me. Sometimes I even wonder why he needs blankets because all he does is ball them up around his neck and chest. I on the other hand like to be snuggled in blankets and use them to their full potential.

We started off sharing blankets and soon after I discovered how bad his hogging habits were, I starting keeping a 'spare' on the floor next to the bed. That plan lasted for a while but when he started stealing my 'spare' because he tossed his on the floor I was back at square one.

Now we each have our own 'cocoons' as Mr. put it once. I know, sounds romantic right!? Mr. now has his blankets and I have mine. I can now be as wrapped up as I want to be and Mr. can be as free as he wants to be. Sometimes when I'm laying in bed I wonder how foolish we would look to someone else. So for a visual, courtesy of Paint and my artistic abilities you can all now see for yourselves!

I can't help but giggle at myself. One, because of this fine masterpiece I have created and Two, because I think how we sleep is a little on the weird side but I like it!

Mr. and I always have fun with this when it comes down to having sex. One of us will 'invite' the other one over to hang out in their cocoon. Then afterwards we go home to our separate sides of the bed.
I know it sounds silly but Mr. always makes me laugh when hes trying to get me to come over. Kinda brings me back to the booty-call/after the bar nights back when we were first dating.
I guess this is one of the ways we keep the fun alive in our sex life! lol

All this talk about bed has got me yawning and looking forward to crawling in my cocoon soon! Might have to pay Mr. a visit along the way!

Oh, and before I forget. Patriots win, Patriots win! :)
