We just packed our bed, so tonight is the first night we'll be sleeping on an air mattress. This will last for at least the next 6 days of travel, but may last for several months while we look for a new place in Austin. Sweet Fancy Moses, what have I done?

i wonder if our ancestors could ever imagine the horrors we would face

Drink some sweet tea for me. Have fun settling in. Yay Texas!

You know you'll buy a bed as soon as you get here, and you kicked me out of YOUR HOUSE (which I suspect you'll never leave, especially once the economy actually tanks).

So... then, to answer your question: you've done whatever you've wanted to do. Not exactly, but precisely.

Air mattresses are the vagabond wanderlust of the residentially challenged.

Plus it's fun to jump on them and send the other person flying...

safe travels!

When I moved to Vancouver I slept on the hardwood floor of my bedroom [with only some blankets and a comforter underneath me] for two months before I went and got a bed.
