I was chatting with someone the other day about those dual zone electric blankets, where each half has its own gauge, and I mentioned that I don't understand how they would work unless each person slept separately on their own side of the bed and who does that, really. I got a blank stare. Apparently everybody does that, everybody but me.
Tom and I sleep in the middle, or both on one side. We sleep together, spooning or with one person curled against the other. And while I never assumed that everybody did that, I did assume that probably half of all couples did it and that the other half at least were near each other. Apparently I was wrong and everybody but me and Tom sleep far apart from each other, with some sort of electrified barbed wire barrier down the middle of the bed. That's an exaggeration, but you get my drift. I've always wondered about those Sleep Number beds, and dual sided heated mattress pads, and those Craftmatic beds with the split down the middle. But it seems like we are just the only couple who sleep all smushed together. I just wonder why.

John and I don't sleep touching each other for two reasons. 1) He sleeps really hot and is a big sweaty mess. 2) Our dog sleeps with us, often at our hips. I think it is really sweet that you and Tom sleep the way you do.
