Thread Count Sheets

I used to think that all sheets were the same – that all bedding was exactly the same for that matter. I slept on a ratty old futon, and had no idea whether my sheets were 300 thread count sheets, or 600 thread count. They were probably pretty low – the sheets were scratchy and uncomfortable, but considering the bed was lumpy, the blanket smelled, and the pillow was as hard as a rock, how would I possibly have noticed. Then, I finally met a good girl who civilized me. She has spoiled me, and made me develop (God forbid) good taste. Now, I can hardly sleep without the luxury of 1000 thread count sheets.

If you have not tried 1000 thread count sheets, there is no way that you will possibly understand what I am talking about at all. How could you. After all, a sheet is a sheet, right? That is what I thought, and would buy the cheapest 300 thread count sheets I could find. But that is before I spent my first night over at my new girlfriends house, and felt the silky luxury of 1000 thread count sheets. There is just no comfort that can compare to them. I remember waking up in the morning, and just stretching and rolling around for what felt like hours, feeling the 1000 thread count sheets massaging my body. They are like the softest caress of a spring breeze. For real. They are quite fantastic.

Unfortunately, they are also fantastically expensive. After experiencing the 1000 thread count sheets, I went out to get my own set, figuring that they couldn't be much more than, say, twice the price of the sheets that I owned. Boy was I mistaken. We are talking over 100 bucks for the set of 1000 thread count sheets that my girlfriend owned. And that is not counting the matching 1000 thread count pillow cases. I had to actually save up for the sheets. And then, once I got that new bedding, I could not help but notice how uncomfortable my mattress was. That was another fantastic expenditure. What started with 1000 thread count sheets bought on a whim quickly grew into over 1000 dollars spent all on my nocturnal comfort. But, now I sleep like a baby. I can not help but think that the whole thing was very definitely worth it. Nothing is better than a good sleep.
