Pillows are very important, they help you to sleep at night…or during the day if you are really tired. There are many different types of pillows.

Fluffy Pillows

Flat Pillows

Full body pillows

Fluffy pillows are ideal. However, it is better to have a flat pillow than no pillow at all, at least if you have a flat pillow then you can fold it into fourths until if is finally cushy enough. Shantel is your basic pillow user. She puts her head on it and falls asleep. Then she wakes up. I however require more of my pillow at night. In general I grab my pillow with my arms and wrap my arms around it and then put my head on it. It is likely that I will shift my pillow multiple times during the night.

Now…you may be wondering what this has to do with Shantel. You have already read 193 words and there has barely been one sentence on Shantel…well let me tell you.

Three nights ago Shantel was sleeping comfortably in bed. I apparently was not. I did not have a pillow. I was not awake, but even when you are asleep your body is smart enough to know that you need a pillow. My pillow during the night had got lost somewhere else on the bed, so what did I do. I grabbed Shantel’s pillow out from under her head, wrapped my arms around it and lay my head down.

Shantel: “Why did you take my pillow?”

David: “Because I don’t have one.”

Now I don’t remember this at all because, again, I was asleep, but Shantel remembers it quite well. So do you know what Shantel did? Nothing. She just put her head down and went back to sleep and let me just steal her pillow because she loves me so much.

Reason #287 to get married, if you fall asleep and lose your pillow during the night, you can just steal your spouses. Thank you Shantel for being so kind to me all of the time, even when I accidentally steal your pillow in the middle of the night.
