Too funny! I'd forgotten about my years on a waterbed early on in my first marriage. We even put our kids into single-sized waterbeds when they moved out of cribs. I LOVED the waterbed. When the marriage split, he took the bed and I bought myself a nice pillow-top mattress. It gets flannel sheets in the winter, and nice cool cotton in the summer. Almost twenty years later, I'm ready for a new mattress and am thinking of the temprpedic. Don't like the foam pillows, though, so am not sure what I'll think of the mattress.
