Okay, this just isn’t right. Anywhere in the world this isn’t right.
I moved into my new house last night. It’s a cute little rental that came completely furnished including a bed with a headboard and everything. Whew! Saved me some money right?. So, there I am, 8 P.M. all ready to pop the sheet my neighbor/landlord lent me on the bed. I spread it out, went to the first corner to tuck it in and… WTF?? they screwed the headboard and footboard directly to the sides of the mattress*. You can’t tuck the sheet in. AT ALL!
Who, on the planet, would think this was a good idea? Especially in a country that only uses fitted sheets. You can’t buy a flat sheet here, at least not where I live. Keep in mind, this wasn’t a Rube Goldberg assembly error, the headboard and footboard were designed this way fer chris’ sake. I mean did the guy who made this thing even realize what he/she was doing or did they figure it out halfway through and say, mai pen rai, not my bed?
Somebody needs to fix this. This, and the little hearts and kitties on the mattress cover.
(* Older style thai mattresses are more like our box springs, covered wood frames with a small amount of padding on top.)

Hope you still manage to get a good night’s sleep on this quirky bed. On the plus side, it’s blue.
