AS COOL AS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PILLOW

Pillows are vital. They must be. Proof. Sit and watch people get off an airplane flight. So many people carry their own pillows. Sure, all are women or girls, but I see a lot of men who purchase those neck wrap-arounds for their flights.

To me, a good night's sleep (I wonder what that is) depends on a pillow more than a mattress. It must be firm. It can't be feather. Collapsibles don't fit my head.

Another necessity is two pillows for proper inclination. Three result in a stiff neck. One may result in snoring for me. A cool Spiderman pillow, courtesy of grandson Grant helped me one hot Summer night, but when I bought my own (don't tell), it didn't work on top of my other two. Maybe Grant had his all broken in, but sadly Spidey sits unused in a drawer.

Do I flip my pillow for the cool side? All night. Even on the coldest of nights I want no hot pillow. Even when my icy feet go searching for the warmth of my wife. My pillow must still be cold.

That's it. That's all I know about pillow talk.
