My bed, including mattress and boxspring, is 32 inches off the ground. My mother thinks this is crazy and possibly dangerous. I love climbing up, it's like
sleeping on a platform far away from spiders and other crawlies. It's also cool that I can sit with my kid on the bed, and he can look straight across into
the mirror on top of my dresser.
Fuck people who think small. |

And so you can see yourSELF in the mirror while you're masturbating, right?
Question from a friend my ass. |

Yeah, TC, the top of the mattress. The headboard is obviously quite a bit higher.
Zip it, Hammy, it wasn't a question from my friend- it was a drunken debate. |

Excellent strategy, especially since crawly things can't climb the legs of your bed or anything.
Remain comforted in the thought that by the time they get to you, they'll be extra pissed and will really want to kill the fuck out of you. |

If it takes them longer to get to me, I have a better chance of seeing them coming. This applies to both spiders and midgets.

Ours is pretty high too, I love it |

The top of the bed should be one inch higher than your butt.

It would have to be the top of the butt or the mattress would be on the floor, wouldn't it? [/PeePee] |

Mine goes up to only 24, but it's exact level to my window box so I don't have to climb up or down to sit in there.

We got a new bed a year ago and I forgot that it was much higher than our old one. I got up in the middle of the night to take a piss, and promptly fell on the
floor cause I expected for my feet to hit it once they got over the side of the bed. I love it now, tho. That night, not so much.

Actually it IS an excellent strategy. In a survival situation where poisonous bugs and snakes are a concern you better not sleep on the ground. Even though they can climb it is not likely that they will. The correct answer is: CLEAN YOUR HOUSE SKANK! |

The bed at my parent's house is high up, not sure how high. In my apartment I didn't use a frame or anything, so it's on the ground and I like it
because Kiwi can get on and off of it no problem without any of helping steps.

Our bed is 32 inches to the top of the mattress, too. I got tired of the running jump, so I bought a cute little step stool a few years ago.

It was nine feet high and six feet wide
Soft as a downy chick It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick It'd hold eight kids, four hound dogs And a piggy we stole from the shed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On Gammy's feather bed |
