"this monstro, he's a whale of a whale"...or a bed.

meet monstro.
like the whale from pinocchio.
equally as big.
equally as annoying.
ignore the unmade messy bed.
i'm about to climb back into it in a few hours, what was the point of making it all up just for a picture?
laziness at its finest. i digress...

you cant tell from the picture, but this bed is huge.
its a california king, and then on top of it, there is that huge horrible 'i just came straight out of a cabin' looking bed frame.
i married into this.
cosmo loves it. i loathe it.
my problem is, our room is such an odd weird shape. it doesnt fit anywhere where its going to look good.
i need someone with high level decorating skills to come save me.

i will mention this is the only source of contention in our marriage,
and i've come to the conclusion that this is a battle i am never going to win, so monstro stays.
now i just have to figure out a way to work with it...
i'm thinking i still might have a chance in the "if you wont let me get rid of it, let me paint it" argument...
so please come help me. i'll make you cookies.
AND
i'll let you sign my bathroom wall:

and even if you dont have any good ideas for my bedroom, come visit me and sign my bathroom wall anyway.
i'll be the first to admit that my decorating skills are lacking,
but this is the one room in my house that i am proud of,
and honestly, was quite surprised cosmo let me get away with it!

please please please help me. i'm sending out an S.O.S.
amateurs need not apply.
