Although some people are all cultured and chick-magnetty, I am not.

For example, one of my attractive physical traits is that I am a sweaty guy. I sweat at my desk, I sweat while driving the car, and charmingly, I sweat while sleeping.

That last one kills me. I live in a foggy and temperate city, yet if I dare put a blanket on any part of my naked body above my feet, I'll sweat up a storm. Is sleeping such a workout for me? Apparently it's a real ass-kicker.

And of course, I'm in constant search for the elusive cool spot on the pillow. Some nights, there is no cool spot.

Actually, let me restate that. Some nights there WAS no cool spot. Tonight, there's a big pillow-sized cool spot because I just bought me a Chillow!

Chil-low! Chil-low! Chil-low!

The Chillow is basically a flat heavy bag that's mostly filled with foam. You pour 10 cups of water into it, and then, assuming you don't leave it in the sun or oven, it's naturally cooler than your body temperature. You put that baby in your pillowcase for an all-over cool pillow. Ahhhhhhhh. And with all the water in it, it should be a pretty good heat sink, sucking up my potential sweatiness all night long. (Cue the porn music)

Actually it's not really my head that gets sweaty. Usually it's my ass. (Cue the funkier porn music) I guess the Chillass isn't out yet though. Anyway, until then, my sheets (and wife) look forward to a less-sweaty night. I'll let you know how it goes.
