 Freshly awoken, please take note of the stylish line across my head. Below you can see how tired I really am. |
I awoke from a most splendid nap today, when what should I find but a handsome line across my head. I was told these new pillows were up to the challenge, but I clearly had no idea.
As a trend-following baby on the go I like to stay on the edge of fashion, home and living trends. The cutting edge is just too spendy for a baby of my means. And then you're still prone to far too many of those "what the heck was I thinking?" photos as fashion trends evolve. I've seen pictures from the hippy 60s, the disco 70s, the glam 80s and grunge 90s. What were you people thinking? Fortunately, I'm proud to be a child of the otts*.
Man oh man, do I ever digress. Now back to my renview of the new pillow/case combination. I was warned that it would make headlines, and what a double entendre we have indeed. I was skeptical of course, since at my age I've seen a good many trends come and go.** My skepticism was soon brought outright with a renewed faith in the value of comments made in passing.
Apparently in my slumberous thrashing I managed to wiggle the case around sideways to rest a seam across my entire head. Snoozing Brendan had no idea what a treat was in store for waking Brendan: A fresh and lingering stripe across my head was my reward.
As a hand-me-down I'm hard pressed to guess the fair value of this new luxury, but it is a swell deal at twice the price.
Perplexing marketing is already hard at work trying to patent the facial seam, as well as a line of pillows with patterns, zippers, heat and moisture-set dyes. Hopefully we can get these to market in time for Christmas, though we're currently hung up with the patent office, they are pretending that pillows have always had seams. I'm undeterred, dear friends. Wish me wealth, this could be the next big thing.
* "Otts" means 00's, right?
**Well, maybe I've seen internet trends come and go, they pass pretty quickly you must admit.
