HNT: In my bed

The nightmask is classic, right? So Blanche Deveraux!

So, it's no surprise to anybody following me on Twitter (@Westopher) but I got a new bed!

This is my first new bed in Los Angeles. I've been out here a pretty long time, most of my adult life actually. It was long overdue. Plus, I have got to get rid of all this old shit.

I'm so tired of all these weird odds and ends I've collected over the years, chest of drawers that don't match, things that aren't really in use, overcrowded artists table as a desk...as I keep telling you, I'M A MESS!

The benefits of a good night's sleep should be pretty obvious, as I'm sure you've all had a night without rest. The next day is a surreal zombie land of hellish proportions. The healthy part was like no doy. I had every reason to do it and now is the time.

Getting the bed itself was easy. I knew exactly what I wanted, walked in, pointed, paid the bill. It was great, until the delivery drama.

Given a time frame as to when they guys would drop off my bed, it was reasonable that I might be home from work. They agreed to call when they were on their way in case I was still at the newsroom, so I could take off and meet them at my place. The delivery dudes called me from the front gate.

I got all PISSED and tore outta work, thankfully not mouth raping anybody or being rude (other than in an obvious frenzy which I suppose could be construed as total bitchery since I'm so high strung...I know how I come off even if the perception is incorrect). However I may have been perceived; the gentlemen were waiting at my place, really awesomely nice to me, and apologetic about not calling. I had a mini-freakout over nothing. Basically.

It was all in my head. My stress had level spiked needlessly. I really could have calmly told them I was on my way and relaxed on the drive over the hill, instead of cursing every car in front of me on the way. RAGE!

Obviously, I need to relax. That's when I snapped this picture, then took the best damn nap in a decade.

Happy Half-Nekkid Thursday!
