Madame Blanket Hog

Hugin has dubbed me a Blanket Hog, and is threatening blanket sanctions against my pillow and myself. I believe these sanctions to be thoroughly unjust and unwarranted. In my defence I claim that the culpability does not fall solely on my shoulders, and state for the record that he is as much to blame as I am. Why you ask? Well Sir, you see, at some point in the night, Monsieur Hugin will brazenly shuck off the blankets, exposing his derrière to the cold, leaving me stranded under a growing mound of duvet. In an effort to escape my confines I will twist and turn, nabbing the blankets as I roll and therefore leaving him further exposed. Had he not, in his need to bare all, thrown the covers off they would be safely anchored on his side and I in my twisting would not be able to swipe them. So it is with these strong shaky points, that I state with great confidence, that he is the culprit and not I! Furthermore, in retribution for my sullied reputation, the pillow and I will be seeking recompense in the form of snuggling sanctions! So there! [thumbs nose]

Be forwarned.. he will now insist on helping you make the bed, therefore securing his portion of the blanket domain. A tug of war may insue, do not give in.

that's not bad. i get the "power ass move" during the night whereby i'm either rendered coverless or on the floor.

Tudy, lol! I was wondering why he was so eager to get to bed early last night... when I got there he was wrapped up, blankets tightly secured, on 'my' side of the bed... the tug of war was rather.. umm .. interesting. :oD

Duncan, Ha haaa haaa. I have this very clear mental image. *snort guffaw* But Nicole is so tiny, how in gawds name, does she actually mange to roll you off the bed?!?

Geekgrrr. hmm. we've tried that, and we actually sleep with three blankets, but invariably one of us coughHugincough always lands up flaunting their derrière.

And thank you BOTH for being so warm & inviting & funny. I love reading insights like these into your relationship -- it makes me realize that there are other people like us! :-)

I can't help it if the blankets can't make up their mind as to what the temp should be...

Need blanket.
Don't want blanket - too hot
Need blanket
Can't get blanket
Cold
Need Blanket

etc
