Ever since my partner Ed saw that they made sheets that were self cooling and self cleaning, she had been griping that she needed to try them herself.
I could not understand how sheets could self clean.
There is some dirt and stains that I’m sure a sheet can’t clean itself. Ed told me I wasn’t imaginative enough, but my imagination worked overtime sometimes. Ed told me if I appreciated her, I would buy her the sheets. Even if they weren’t self-cleaning, Ed would like self-cooling sheets. I was in the neighborhood 1 week later, and I saw a small portable a/c. It was certainly cheap so I bought it, along with a child’s size washer. I put the a/c under the bed, but not back far enough where Ed would not see it when she walked in the door. The washing components were on the other side, along with an instruction sheet entitled; to the sheets. When Ed walked in the living room I heard her smart comment, however she was laughing. Ed had found the washer before she found the air conditioner unit. I told her her real gift was located under my side of the bed. She pulled out the portable a/c and asked what that was for? I told Ed that I could turn the a/c on before my fine friend and I went to bed, and it would cool down the entire bed, and not just the sheets. She slapped my arm and then she burst out laughing. It wasn’t what Ed asked for, but at least she took it as a joke, and never asked about the self-cleaning or self-cooling sheets again.
