Beds

My bed is only 80 cm wide. Normally this is not a problem, in fact, as I sleep flat on my back and have a small apartment a bigger bed would just be a waste of space. However, at the moment I’m getting increasingly of the opinion that another 10 or 20 centimetres would not be a bad thing. See, it’s suddenly summer. And it is way too warm to sleep underneath a duvet. On the other hand, I can’t just put the duvet away in a cupboard or something, because at some point during the night, it normally gets cool enough that I want to cover parts of me. My shoulders, normally. So the duvet has to be there, squashed up against the wal like a fat sausage. And, frankly, it’s in the way.

Maybe I could get one of those duvets for babies? Nine nights out of ten it really is just my shoulders I want to cover, and a baby-duvet would do the trick. Then I could at least put the other one on a chair or something and only get it if the temperature suddenly drops.

Or would that just be weird? (On the other hand, do I care?)
