Bed Sheets?

[Guest europeanman]

Sferra Giza 45. Crazy expensive but they are the softest sheets ever. I bought a few sets of sateen but the Percale feels cooler and lasts a lot longer.

Off topic, but Giza cotton is excellent also for shirts. There is a specific Giza number that makes awesome bright white shirts.

Could you provide your source for this? I admit I am surprised...would have guessed botox...

 

Anal bleaching is not a surgical procedure like Botox or implants. It's usually done in spas. Costs about $30.Google and you'll find articles on how popular it is now. I found a photo of a girl getting it done in a spa by a girl who looks like a manicurist but, while not sex, it looks disgusting.

When did botox become a surgical procedure?

Yesterday I asked my landlord to get me some new bed sheets. I want simple plain ones. Any color but white.

 

Earlier this year I placed an order from MyPillows for two pillows. But someone here in the meanwhile posted that they first needed to be put in the dryer. So when they arrived I never even opened the package. But yesterday I asked my landlord to do that. Looking forward to being able to use them.

Your landlord handles your sheet purchasing and laundry?

 

I’m still trying to process this. Do you live in a hotel?

 

You’re joking, right?

A related question: How often do you wash your sheets? I wash sheets once a week in the summer and every 2 weeks in the winter. But pillow cases I wash once a week summer and winter.

every day. I like the smell of freshly washed sheets.

Seven to 10 days for me, but I sometimes lose track of the time. I spend time in two houses, so how many times I've slept in the two beds can be hard to keep track of.

When alone I often sleep under a quilt on top of the bedspread to keep it made. My cleaning lady comes every two weeks and changes sheets.

 

When having sex with my #1 who's a power bottom I pull the sheets down and if he needs lube do it on the folded-down top sheet that's easy to take off and wash quick. (He rarely does). From experience I've learned white cotton sheets are easier to wash lube out of than bedspreads.Also the sheets are still fresh and smell good from sleeping on top a lot so when we spoon afterwards under the sheets it's heavenly. I use the smelly stuff you add to laundry and it's great on sheets. My #1 (who's a butch bi Marine tough guy) swoons at the smell.

Sateen is an awful sheeting fabric because of the pilling.

Lately I’ve been impressed with Parachute, out of Santa Monica.

It's physically-invasive, even if just a syringe. It's also expensive.

No I'm not. I have been house bound since April. I have lived here for 26 years. My landlord is a good man.

 

Regarding the bed sheets I keep forgetting that I have Amazon Prime; I should have ordered from them.

 

He does not do my laundry. A local laundry has a service and they do it. They charge by the pound.

It is considered non invasive. Just go to the site of any plastic surgeon and check. And it is not at all expensive. I do it every six months. Under the eyes and on the sides of the nose. It costs about the same with an escort session in London.

When they gave it a procedure code.

I change my pillow cases daily because I sweat a lot from my neck. The sheets get washed at least once a week, but I've washed them as frequently as every other day in summer. Like [uSER=19303]@europeanman[/uSER], I like the smell of fresh sheets and I find them to be very relaxing.

 

Sateen is an awful sheeting fabric because of the pilling.

My ten year old Charter Club sateen sheets were as good as new when I upgraded to a Cal King mattress and donated the sheets to Goodwill. There was absolutely no pilling.

 

Maybe Macy's has developed a special material.

Ok. That makes sense. I was under the impression this was standard for your landlord to perform for all of his tenants, or you lived in a complex where this was part of the service. It’s not an impossible concept if that were to exist, but certainly not anything I had ever heard of. So, it caused me to wonder.

 

That’s really nice to have someone like that to depend upon and for them to take such care. Sounds like an awesome landlord!

He truly is!!! I order groceries online but the store does not deliver so he picks them up for me. In the same shopping center I have a rent box where I get my mail and he picks that up for me too.

Exactly correct.

 

There's no scalpel incision, so it's considered medically non-invasive. Even when a cannula is used in cooperation with a syringe, it's still considered a non-invasive procedure.

 

It's also expensive.

 

And Botox is not really expensive: It certainly doesn't have to be. $6-12 a unit is the usual spread. Anything more is highway robbery. Anything less is likely sugar water or you're fortunate enough to know the right people and are getting it at cost.

I know. It's really soft though, and as you can see, I like soft, fluffy things. If I could do it over, I would have bought percale for some of the items.

Sferra advises that sheets dried on delicate cycle. The sheets should be damp when removed from dryer and should be ironed dry. (Actually, someone on this board advised me to do that too.)

Speaking of sheets, I recently learned one of my friends uses a laundry services that removes the bed sheets, launders and replaces them. I never heard of anyone outsourcing their linens like that. The same friend, uses a greenhouse service that brings in fresh plants every 2 weeks, using duplicates of the same cache pots and other planters to maintain consistency in her decor.

Major “First World” considerations/concerns. (Not saying I wouldn’t be tempted by the service, just calling a “spade”, a “spade.”)

Yes, it is nice to have first world problems She has a 5 bedroom on the upper west side and i guess it is hard to move all the mattresses and change them.

Poor thing. The pressure must be intense. It’s reassuring that she’s found a way to cope with the abundance of mattresses.
