BTW, much thanks to the DUer who told me to get a heated mattress pad...

[Lavender Brown]

in response to my whining about how cold my old house is. I did buy one, and I'm not getting out of bed, ever. :thumbsup:

1. Hehe...

I have one for each bed. :)

[Lavender Brown]

2. It's like the feeling you have when you wake up in the morning...

and you don't want to leave your warm bed. Except it starts as soon as you go to bed. :crazy:

[Danger Mouse]

3. But now you'll never get out of bed.

Isn't that a problem?

[Lavender Brown]

5. I don't care, I'm finally warm

:P

[Danger Mouse]

6. Hey, when you turn into the 'Sloth' guy from Se7en, don't come crying to me.

:P

[Lavender Brown]

8. I have ice forming on the inside of my room!!1

I deserve some toastiness, okay? :cry:

[Danger Mouse]

9. Are you serious??

Okay, okay, you can stay in bed as long as you want. :hug:

[Lavender Brown]

10. Yes, my windows are really REALLY old

and my radiator doesn't work well and there is ice on the inside of the windows and it's COLD. x(

[Danger Mouse]

11. I'm sorry. I was being mean.

being mean is what I do best.
:pals:

[Lavender Brown]

13. No biggie

:shrug:

[Danger Mouse]

15. Come on, this is DU! Where's your outrage?

[Lavender Brown]

18. I can't be outraged when I am this cozy and warm!

[Danger Mouse]

19. Point taken.

I'm just spoiling for a fight.

4. I've had a heated water bed for years.

It's great, and I'm certain it slowed down the onset of my lower back condition.

They're perfect for those cold winter nights, and even better for keeping close friends warm...

[Lavender Brown]

7. I've had back problems

I can definitely see this helping if it flared up again.

[Taverner]

16. I always thought waterbeds were bad for those with back problems

I have a Tempurpedic myself - not sure if its the best though

[Lavender Brown]

17. Mine isn't a waterbed, just a regular mattress pad that heats up

like an electric blanket.

[LoveMyCali]

12. I think it's definitely a sign of my age

that my two favorite things are my heated mattress pad and my remote car starter. I just can't take the cold.

[Lavender Brown]

14. I take the bus to work...

One of my favorite things about using public transportation is not having to de-ice my car every morning in winter. I have no tolerance for the cold these days.

20. Are they not the best?

Totally make you not want to get out of bed though.
