With the crappy sleep I've been getting starting to affect my moods, I decided to spend some money on a decent bed. Now, I'm not one to go out and just buy anything. If I'm getting something new, I make sure I'm not only getting something I need, but something I want. Makes it easier to not spend money on impulse buys. So, in this case, I bought a bed. A King Size bed. With a memory foam pillow top.
There is one drawback. The mattress is a King Grand. That means it's meant for a bed frame that sits low to the ground to begin with. I bought a new frame, but it's about 6 to 8 inches high. Add on the full height box spring and double high mattress, and you get a bed surface that is about three feet from the floor. The dog looked at me like I was crazy when I invited her up after I had finished setting it up, but she had no real problems getting up. She settled right in and gave me the, "You have done well. You may go" look.
And now, for the first time in several weeks, I'm looking forward to going to bed so that I can try it out. Now if I could only find a willing lady to help me break it in!

I bought a memory foam mattress at Walmart for $500. I couldn't believe how much I liked it! I also bought a memory foam pillow. It's the best! Eventually I hope to save up to buy a real memory foam mattress (e.g., Tempurpedic). The only problem is that they cost so much! It wouldn't take me too long to save up, but unfortunately my wife has a drinking problem and has a tendency to steal whatever money I save. While she gets drunk on gin, I get to contend with back spasms!
I once bought a memory foam mattress at Walmart as well. The only problem was its memory was too good! It wasn't long before my new mattress resembled the moon with all those craters pounded into it. I guess they are not meant for all night love making sessions with lucky women. In addition, the foam soaked up all the liquor and bodily fluids so it wasn't even three weeks before that mattress stunk like a polecat's ass. I learned my lesson and bought a round bed, groin high, perfect for my "lifestyle". The ironic thing is that my round bed is so bloody uncomfortable that I had to buy a couple of bunk beds for the ladies to sleep in after our weekend shenanigans.
