Amerisleep AS3 Reviews

  My Amerisleep AS3 Unboxing Video (Surprise, my voice is ridiculous!) If I can (just barely) do it, you can totally tackle a bed-in-a-box by yourself. Updated 10/15/22 Amerisleep's AS5 was recently featured as the 'Best Soft Mattress in a Box' by Good Housekeeping , with the panel of reviewers noting: Pressure relief for side sleepers Taller than other boxed mattresses Good customer service    Amerisleep Mattress Reviews  We've been happy Amerisleep customers since purchasing our first AS3 mattress more than 9 years ago. Now we also have an AS2 and an AS4 (the AS3 is still our favorite). Born with chronic insomnia  (even as a baby - my family insists I was a nightmare), the struggle to improve my sleep is my life. My husband, the overly-analytical mechanical engineer, was initially skeptical of a mail-order mattress, but he was quickly won over. 2012: Wine glass test, sans wine. I was fairly confident our brand-new mattress would pass with f

The Winner Is...

It has been a close race all week between Piney Flats Style and My Little Blogspot! Piney Flats Style My Little Blogspot Up until yesterday morning, both were tied for the title of Best in Show. At the last moment though, a surge of votes announced a clear champion. Congratulations, My Little Blogspot!

What Snazzy Readers I Have!

Thanks so much to everyone who has commented on my last post. Sometimes, you just need to vent! And, good news, it looks like BlogHer is going to use my review, even though I was a complete flake when it came to my deadline. Have I ever mentioned that one of my pet peeves is people who don't meet due dates? Geeeeez! Stay tuned for the premier of The Great Sexy Nerd Weight Loss Adventure, (aka, my BlogHer review) coming soon. OH NO, Sexy Nerd!

STRESSED!

I feel like an idiot today. BlogHer contacted me to write my first paid blog post ever and I completely blew it. My post was due today. Easy peasy! I even told one of my coworkers about it this morning. She asked what time it was due and I replied that it's just due on the 15th, with no specific time. Then I checked my email and saw a message asking where my blog post was - it was supposed to be submitted by 9am! How the heck did I miss that? I looked back over the emails I'd received about the sponsored post and it clearly said 9am. Quite the first impression, right? I think what makes me the most upset is that this was the first time I've ever been paid to write anything. I felt like a "real" writer. It probably seems silly to people who actually make their living through writing, but with nothing else to go on, it was a big deal to me. I still submitted my blog post, but it was about 12 hours late! I hope BlogHer will still use it, but I wouldn't be surpr

Fighting with Sexy Nerd

Remember MySpace? I'd forgotten all about it and decided to sign on for the first time in over a year. There was a post that I wrote right after Sexy Nerd and I moved into our rental house together. It's cute, in a pitiful, dopey way. Here you go, cut and pasted directly from MySpace: Nerdy just told me that his mom asked why our house is decorated my way and not his. Well gee, I'd love to use his dining room table instead of mine but, guess what, he doesn't own one! I'd love to use his plates and glasses and bedding and towels, etc, etc, if he had some! He always complains that my couch is uncomfortable, but does he ever offer to buy a new one? Nope! And does he even own a bed? Nope! (although I've been told that he has an air mattress stored away somewhere...) Besides, he says he likes the way that I decorate. If you saw the way "his" office and "his" garage look, you would understand why he has little influence over the rest of the hou
