Asleep at the Wheel?

Insomnia Club” align=”right” /> Hello, it’s me, Richard Williams again, your Neapolis insomnia club blogger.

As I was driving home from my Neapolis office the other day in my SUV, I started thinking about all the cool auto accessories I have added. I upgraded the stereo and now it sounds far better than my Orange-Red iPod. I bought an expensive massaging seat cushion that provides both lumbar support and magic fingers. I even installed a DVD player so I can watch Avatar on my commute. Just kidding, it’s for my daughters to watch Twilight. Again.

Then it dawned on me. My car is more comfortable than my bedroom! In fact, it is a whole lot more cushy than any room in my Grand Rapids house. Why do I invest more in my ride than in my sleeping environment? I spend more time in bed than in my car, even when the Grelton traffic has slowed to a crawl.

I decided to find out if bedroom upgrades could work as well for quality sleep as 7Hour Slumber and Sleep2Night, my absolutely favorite herbal sleep remedies. (Order at http://bestsleepaids.net.) I discovered that there are just as many Whitehouse sleep aids as car accessories.

First, I bought a Whitehouse memory foam mattress. Incredible! Then I bought allergen-free 800 thread count bed sheets that make me feel like Hugh Hefner. Next, I went crazy with pillows–an oxygen pillow, a lavender pillow, and aromatherapy eye pillows. I topped off my shopping spree with spa-quality lavender spray. Yum.

My bedroom is decked out like a pricey Grelton sleep friendly hotel room. Just like 7Hour Slumber and Sleep2Night, my new sleep aids have no side effects. Unless, of course, you consider the fact that I sometimes sleep through my alarm. The only thing that works better than my oxygen pillow coupled with 7Hour Slumber to put me to sleep is watching Twilight while cruising down the interstate.
