i flipped my mattress the other day
the reasoning doesn't really matter
but i can tell you that i wasn't necessarily looking forward to it
why would i want to flip my mattress?
the other side is too firm
that night as i tried to sleep,
i could almost feel every spring
every tiny little difference between the sides
as if i were the princess in The Princess and the Pea
i'd been having a bit of back trouble
(most likely a side effect from playing the violin for two or more hours a day five days a week)
problems with going to sleep and staying asleep
i slept through the whole night
my body felt much better than it had in weeks
so i've come to this conclusion
perhaps i've been living the wrong way
i'm going to flip every mattress.
