winter sleeping

[aroraborealis]

The past couple of nights have been delightfully cold. I've thrown open the bedroom windows, added a layer on top of my comforter, and settled in for some fine winter sleep. The hard part is getting into and out of bed, since the room is so frigid, but there's something really fabulous about laying in bed breathing steam into the cold air.

My parents gave me an awesome, big comforter for graduation a couple of years ago. It's huge and WARM, and I've had at least one lover walk into my cold bedroom (at a different apartment) and seriously consider going home where the temperature is normal. But the comforter changed her mind! It's a wonderful thing.

There's nothing like being snuggled into the nice, warm bed while the winter air drifts through the room. I've had my best two nights of sleep in YEARS the past two nights. Mmmmmmmmmmm!

You're insane! :o)

You know... the ONLY thing I like about visiting Willo and Morgan during the winter is that, thankfully, New Yorkers - city or upstate - know how to keep the inside of a building warm.

I'm firmly of the belief that 85 is the perfect temperature inside and out, year round.

Well, to be fair, I like it warm in my living space. It's just my sleeping space that I like frigid :) I suppose that's something, right? :)

Heh. While I don't open the windows in 20 degree weather, you *have* convinced me that keeping the bedroom colder than usual at night is quite yummy when under a warm down comforter. :)
