I am a freefaller. I used to be uncomfortable with criticism, but now I am used to it :lol: I guess that is what four brothers and a bunch of tough cousins can do for you.

I'll take my opportunity to shoot one hole in this whole study. What about the folks who have physical conditions that limit their sleeping positions? After my heart surgery, the only sleeping position that was an option was the soldier position. That lasted for months. For years now I can sleep in a modified yearner position if I have a good pillow. Rarely do I ever sleep in the free faller position.

My position on sleep is that I am all for it. Don't know what it is but I'm for it.

It "knits up the ravelled sleeve of care." I'm all for it.

Like mute, I am a reluctant soldier! I do not think it reflects the true me!

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

"ask yer cat?"

-Better still, ask yer two cats. One lays against each side of you and one or both will protest when you stir.

My weird roommate told me how I slept. For some reason his hobby is watching people sleep.

Too much information!!!! Some things are best kept to oneself.

I, also, noted the absence of the "crocodile death-roll blanket-hugging" style. :really:
