More about my bed
It's really weird sleeping so close to the ground.
As I think back, I've slept on my loft for over eight years now, nearly a third of my life, excluding comparatively brief vacations at home or elsewhere. But now my regular bed, the one I sleep on every night, is a regular old bed, at a normal height, and feels odd. (Not to mention big---it's only a full, but I don't even know what to do with all that extra room.)
Also lethal: sleeping within reach of the alarm clock. This is something I haven't even done on vacations (since usually the alarm clock was elsewhere in the room, at least) in many years. It's making it really hard to get up in the morning. I guess I'll figure something out, but boy, I wasn't expecting my acquisition of a new bed to require so much adaptation on my part. :P
