per_soloMy waterbed is now dead. I'm keeping the frame, but switching to a conventional mattress.
Hole developed in the waterbed, in a crease...tried patching it, it still leaked..tried putting a bigger patch over, and it leaked more. Then, tried to remove the patch to repatch...and, well, anyone who has owned a waterbed will tell you that's a big, BIG mistake. It's now been draining for several hours, and I'm going to sleep on the couch tonite.
Found out the other night that the couch sleeps rather comfortably...just need a better blanket out here..with the window right behind the couch, it did make sleeping..a little cold. But now that blanket is dry, so I can actually sleep with it.
Wow...mattresses are expensive. More than I'd have imagined. Of course, I've just done a little research.
Wow...JC Penney has a bit better prices..more investigation. Ugh.
Well, VCR is now recording "Huff", and it's time for bed...tho, I may hang out just a little longer, for the bed to finish draining..what a Pain...dunno that I'll ever go back to a waterbed again. Of course, this bed and mattress (waterbed, that is) has survived 3 moves, if not 4, so I probably managed to kill its Baffles in one of those moves. :-)
More updates later.
