A survey of beds in Pompeii and Herculaneum, excluding what are obviously children's cots, shows that Roman beds tended to be very narrow, even though married couples were expcted to spend the night together—for propriety's sake. I suppose one could push two beds together, but I prefer to think that Romans liked to spoon.

About the count: I never posted #3000, so I was able to roll it back by one today.

Yah, a morning smooch is probably a more pleasant way to wake up than someone yelling about having to do your work for you.

In Spendi's defense, she's probably cranky and nauseated by having to put together someone else's bowl of morning kibble, so some growling on the other sides of doors is in order.
