Doesn't seem so large, sara. Sorry, though.

I'm heading to bed, but I'll have a resume ready for comments by the weekend. volunteers?

it's not large, just will fuss the mission fussbudgets. (There has been much more data we've declared crap and consigned to a class of data we call PRB for problem. Still save it, just remove it from view.)

There is this lovely scene with Diane Keaton

Diane Wiest, right?

And Henry Selick was the director and there's as much of him in Nightmare as there is Burton, and you can see that when you compare it to Coraline.

Okay, I'm reading an article on xoJane on how often people change their sheets/use a fresh bath towel. And the comments section is cracking me up, because of the very definite opinions people have on top sheets. I had no idea people were so vigorously anti- or pro-top sheet.

(Me: pro-top sheet, all the way. It's a texture thing -- I don't like having just the blanket against my arms and legs. But I never, EVER tuck in the top sheet down at the foot of the bed. My feet need to be free. Tim loves the top sheet tucked in, so when I make the bed, it's all Continental Divide going on down at the foot, half tucked in and half all hippie and free.)

Ditto on needing a top sheet here too. I always have one except on those rare occasions when it's hot enough that sleeping naked under the ceiling fan would be preferable.

Even then, it's still on the bed; I just shove ALL the covers down, including the top sheet. But I still put it on when I make the bed.

I use a top sheet too. However - I am reading the comments on that article

some people, are just different

Yeah, I sleep on my back (to start) and have size 12 feet, so tucked in sheets are torturous.

Actually, this brings up a topic I've been meaning to put to the community:

How do you go to sleep?

What is your bedtime routine? How long does it take? Jammies or naked? Socks or no socks? Tucked sheets? Electric blanket? Music on? Dead quiet? Fan or white noise machine or air filter on?

My college roommate loved multiple heavy blankets and quilts and the window open in winter.

My friend Alison cannot sleep with her feet under the covers. They have to be out and naked or she gets too hot.

I knew a girl in Boston that slept face down with her knees tucked under her and her butt in the air like a toddler.

Side sleeper, back sleeper, front sleeper? Everything under the covers or arms out? Feet out? Arms over your head?

Do you have a brain quieting approach? They say it helps to shift your brain from words to images. Guided imagery (counting sheep?)

So, how do you go to sleep?

are you the kind of person that draws broad conclusions about personality from one ambiguous comment written subsequent to a rattling experience?

I don't know--do you have an example of an ambiguous comment I could test myself with?

I mean, on the list of super patriots, I don't think Coates ranks relatively high.

Either this is based on reading the one post I did, and therefore I don't understand how you reached this conclusion, or it's based on a broader knowledge of Coates than I have and therefore is precisely the information I was looking for before coming to a conclusion, otherwise I wouldn't have asked that question.

I deliberately buy blankets that feel nicer on my skin than my sheets, so no top sheet for me.
