So since January I've been sleeping on a sleeping bag on the floor. It took me a couple weeks to adjust, because my body just wasn't limber enough to find it comfortable, but now it feels as comfortable as my bed ever did (plus my neck and back don't sound like cement mixers anymore). The really interesting thing about it, though, is that I don't sleep as deeply as I used to--I find myself drifting in and out of sleep more frequently and dreaming more. It's like a more "active" sleep I guess. When I get up in the morning though, I feel a lot more alert and energized than I do when I sleep in a bed. Whether I get 5 hours or 8 hours of sleep, I never feel sluggish in the mornings anymore.
A lot of people think I'm crazy, and the weird thing is that my stepmom and sisters are "offended" by it somehow? They think I'm being ungrateful or something because I have a full-size mattress and bed but choose not to use it. Anyway, I figure going bedless will make moving a lot easier and cheaper after I graduate XD. My old high school friend was like, "have fun staying single."
