I have a queen sized bed and on this bed I have three pillows. Two of them are normal pillows- normal size and normal filling. But the third pillow is this little buckwheat pillow that has seeds in it. It's harder than the other pillows and it goes in between the two normal ones so I can choose to sleep on it when I want to. Usually I end up on that pillow cause it's pretty solid but really comfy. And it's kinda cool (I mean the temperature is cool, although it's cool in the other way too) in the summer and I usually seek out the cool parts of the bed when I'm sleeping.
Here's the thing. For the last several years I've been using this assortment of pillows and it's worked out really well. While I'm sleeping I can decide how soft or not so soft I want my pillow to be. These last two nights have seen a little break in my pillow pattern. I've woken in the middle of the night to my little buckwheat pillow being somewhere else. Normally when this happens I've knocked it off the top of the bed somehow (this doesn't happen often, but from time to time...) but last night and the night before I've woken up in the middle of the night looking for the little pillow.
The night before last I found it still in the pillow section of the bed (at the top) but on the side. The side! It's not a side pillow, it's a middle pillow. I never would have put it there. And then last night I woke up and found it on the other side of the bed, half way down near my stomach. And that surprised me enough that I woke all the way up. I know very well how all my pillows and I had started the evening- the same way we had started for years (years!). And now there's this.
And I keep wondering what I could possibly be dreaming that's impacting this change. It's a little disturbing to me. I mean, sleep is sacred. We don't mess with something that works over here. What the hell?

Funny - the side, the side??!?!? buckwheat pillows are awesome - as are buckwheat pancakes for that matter. n
Tee hee. Right? The side of the side of the bed. WTF?
Must be the Pillow Gremlin. Nothing to worry about. Just don't get it wet. Go back to sleep.
