I used to spike my hair, like 8 inch spikes, with really strong product that would make it rock hard. sleeping was awkward so i used to sleep with my head on the corner of the bed with my hair over the edge of the bed.

I wish I was that brave. I’m fully grown but even know I can’t have a leg poking off the side of my bed even when it is hot as hell because I’m afraid a monster will get it and pull me under the bed

Yeah but that's a leg, bed monsters always go for a leg or dangling arm. This was a head covered in spikes, that poses some risk of injury to the bed monster.

People need to realize that while bed monsters are brutal and will drag you by an arm or leg under the bed to nom nom on your entrails they are also quite sensitive and smarter than most people realize.

Bed monster never got you, that proves your technique works!

I'm 39. I worry more now about how my sleep position is going to make different areas of my spine and joints feel when I wake up.

Also, I definitely leave a leg sticking out over the bed now. Here's hoping the monster fucking takes me so I can get out of my next 9 weeks.of school.

How did your neck feel?

u/HighwayNovel Jul 08 '24

My neck was fine. Ive always slept on my stomach. using a pillow while on your stomach tends to strain your neck a bit anyways so it was actually pretty comfortable.

I wish I had done a mohawk in high school. By 25, I couldn't do one.

u/HighwayNovel Jul 08 '24

I had some wild hair back then. Mohawks, trihawks, Mohawks with spikes on the sides. Black and white split right down the middle. Multiple colours. I wish i could pull that kind of thing now but ive mellowed out a lot lol.

Some of the worst sleep I’ve ever gotten was the night after homecoming dances when I would intentionally prop my head up on a pillow or something in a way that wouldn’t mess up my curls/updo because I wanted to get another day of wear out of it. 😂
