Do you ever get the Sheet Twister going?
That’s where you open your eyes in the morning to discover your pajamas halfway up your stomach, your arms dented with pillow zippers, and most of the sheets mysteriously twisted around one of your legs? Now you only have two choices and neither of them are great:
1. Get up. Whip the bed into a freshly made rectangle of coziness and get back to sleeping in. The only problem is that during the 15-second reset you may accidentally wake yourself up, realize you need to pee, and jostle your brain just enough to prevent falling asleep again.
2. Stay down. Keep the coziness but settle for the chills. Sure, you might try to peel the blanket back over you, but then the sheet doesn’t come up with it or your feet are suddenly feeling open air. Maybe you have one of those five-second freakouts where you kick your arms and legs like a wild animal trying to get everything organized. But this just gets your heart rate motoring and ends up in a crumpled sheet explosion.
Now, neither of these tricks does the job which is why it’s great when someone makes the bed with you in it. Suddenly your sleep-in gets extended into a tightly fitted sheet trapping, pillow flapping, body wrapping moment of
AWESOME!

Hey everyone,
Happy Wednesday!
It’s been a wild year so to help celebrate everything winding down I’m giving away $2000 worth of gifts to spread some holiday happiness. Prizes include signed copies of The Books of Awesome, signed copies of my new book The Happiness Equation (which you’ll read months before anyone in the world!), and tons more. Check it out right here.
The way it works is the more you spread the word the more likely you are to win. Every friend you refer gets you three extra entries.
Last thing! Our final holiday shipment of signed bookplates goes out this Thursday. So, as with previous years, if you bought any of my books for someone you love and would like them signed, just send an email to erin@globalhappiness.org with your address and we’ll drop a free signed bookplate in the mail. Thanks as always for spreading the love.
Good luck in the contest! And happy holidays everyone,
Neil
