Does this sound romantic to you?

Sleeping on the ground is better than sleeping on beds with pillows. It's better for your back, too.

"Nothing much to it"? Tosh! Tosh, I say! The pillow is a noble object, one that you plainly neither appreciate nor deserve. For shame!

I don't tend to use too much time on things that will perish anyway. I mean, pillows are such a hassle I sleep without pillows.. They hurt my neck. I sleep on my madress and use the whole madress as a huge pillow!

South Africa, huh? Don't you have things that can rip you to pieces while you sleep on the ground? I'd rather have a sore back.

What about snakes....... If they come and surround your body while asleep............ Snakes in the grave ain't a good thing. may Allah protect us.

BTW, my mom said to not sleep straight, as it is not ok to imitate the dead, is this true?

We do. It's what makes things so nice.

For people who don't know:

South Africa was the "Guantanamo Bay" of 300+ years ago. If you were living in other countries and did stuff the governments didn't like, they'd get a hold of you and throw you all the way into SA. "The southern most tip of the dark continent." They thought that if they throw you there, no one's ever going to hear from you again, first of all, and secondly you yourself won't survive for long.

Sounds more like south Chicago than Guantanamo.

Haha. Worry not, my friend. I have grown out of such pretense.

And hey, don't be pretending that y'all haven't some embarrassing things yourself as a teenager. *Blows raspberries*

Well, there was that unfortunate incident with a cheese wheel, but let's not get into that.

Well, OK. Just don't forget which is which.

I wouldn't mind snakes in my grave. The snakes I would worry about are the ones that put you in the grave.

That sounds like we have a story right here. I like stories, especially good and interesting stories.

Why not get into that.

well, Cheese wheels remind me of Tom and Jerry. That series have some distorted ideas of the Hereafter. AFAIK.

Jerry loves cheese. Idk what their names mean tho. In shaa' Allah not shirky ones............

Allahu alam.

Would you like me to start before or after I filled my navel?

whoa, you talk to the pillow? cute naat, seriously tho - rep coming for sharing that, very insightful personal pet-foolery with us.

And yes - it's romantic, except only you know what you are doing - she doesn't. Call it "romantic fantasy", with a "plan".. yeah, call it that.

Not quite sure if its better than cheesecake though.
