it must be the madness

Most beds are supposed to last a really really long time, right? And “a really really long time” means more than three years in this case.

Well, it looks like mine won’t.

You see, yesterday I was listening to my newly-downloaded The Wedding Singer soundtrack when I decided it would be appropriate to start dancing and jumping on my bed. So, I did.

Then, I decided that that was enough and I got off and just sat down and did other stuff. When I was finished with my other business, I turned all my lights out and left the room.

Alas, I had forgotten something. I decided that I didn’t need the light on when I went back into my pitch-black room to retrieve my headphones because my eyesight is that good (which it is not!), so I didn’t bother hitting the lights.

Big mistake.

I tripped over my own feet (excellent eyesight and coordination! Who could want more???) and fell right onto the side of my bed. I fell on the matress right above the frame, and I heard a horrible

CRACK

Lo and behold, I had bestowed a horrid crack onto the frame of my bed and have rendered a whole side sleepless. Yes, that’s right, a whole half of my bed will completely collapse if I lay on it! I can repair it and it looks fine, but as soon as somebody sits on it, it’s falls in.

I haven’t told my parents and I have no idea what to do. How am I going to sleep tonight???
