The other day I was talking about our too small bedrooms and our old double bed that we used to use as our bed when we lived in our apartment. For some reason that made me think of the satin bed sheets that I still have for that bed.
I don’t know if you have, or if you’ve used satin bed sheets before, but they can make the act of getting into bed quite interesting, let alone doing anything else in bed!
The first time I ever used the satin sheets on the bed I think I made the mistake of also wearing a satin nightgown. Now I’m a big klutz so it should stand to reason that me, satin sheets and a satin nightgown were not going to mix well.
I think I probably bought them and put them on the bed to set up a romantic evening for Chris and I. I don’t remember all the details and some of them I won’t get into in this post, but I don’t think I have to tell you that my attempt to get into bed, freshly made with the new light pink satin sheets, in my satin night gown were something that could have come from a classic comedy.
I think I slide across the bed and fell off the other side on my first attempt to get into bed. When it came to the next attempt I believe I was a bit more careful and only slide to the middle of the bed. LOL I’m sure I came out of that experience with a few bruises.
After that I never combined two satins again!

Good advice for someone planning a romantic evening.
I had 16 posts for you in one go. Is Google Reader holding them back, or were you on a creative roll?

That’s just funny! …and a little sad…but mostly funny. ๐

I know there is a curling metaphor there somewhere, but I’ve been away too long.

They are so pretty from afar, but I find that if my heels are not perfectly smooth and my legs not perfectly shaved, I feel prickly in this kind of bedding. ๐
Angela says
ROFLMBO!!! I almost choked on my fresh homemade oatmeal cookie DH just served me when I read this post…LOL!
First time I’ve visited your blog so don’t know you well yet, but I was visualizing a woman with amorous intent slip sliding away across the bed and back again in her sexy satin nitey, scrambling frantically with arms and legs flailing wildly in search of something to grab hold of, steady herself, and resume a sexy pose before her lover’s head turned back her way. (Yea, I know…it’s a run on sentence, but that’s how fast the movie was running in my mind’s theater.)
Are you Lucille Ball incarnate? ๐
Tricia says
Jean-Luc … yeah people might want to rethink using satin sheets if they’re trying to impress someone! LOL
BTW your feed reader must have been acting up. 16 posts at once??? I probably have written 16 post on one site in a day but not lately. Wow.
Tricia says
Jason it was sad. Very very sad. LOL
Tricia says
Martin I’d love to hear your curling metaphor if you come up with it. LOL
Tricia says
Angie! Oh yeah, I forgot about rough heels and not so smooth legs on satin sheets. You are so right. It feels awful and if the satin sheets aren’t of the best quality (low thread count) they can get damaged from the rough skin too.
Tricia says
Angela! You are totally picturing things the way it happened. LOL I do think I could be a Lucille Ball incarnate. It was hilarious! You know you have memories that last you a life time and often they are stupid little things you did like this that made you laugh? This is definitely on that list.
Welcome to Tricia’s Musings BTW, I hope you return for another visit. ๐ Oh and that homemade oatmeal cookie sounds delicious! and your husband made it? Bonus!
