I realized recently I am very particular about my pillow.  A few years ago a friend turned me on to latex foam pillows.  The have a waffle-y appearance inside as opposed to the space age foam pillows littering Bed Bath & Beyond these days.  I started using it exclusively when I slept at said friends house and woke the next morning rested and not having been woken up by “dead arm” for the first time in a long time.  I sleep with an arm under my pillow and constantly wake up with my arm asleep, only to roll over and whack myself in the face with it.  I immediately ran out and bought one of my own.  I’ve been a whore to this pillow ever since. 

I ran into Bed Bath & Beyond to replace that pillow and to get a back up a year or so after discovering it.  Much to my dismay and utter horror, there weren’t any to be found.  I asked an employee and was told “they don’t carry those anymore.” I wanted to put my pregnant at the time foot in an undisclosed area of that employees body.  I searched after that.  I checked Linens and Things and other assorted department stores and came up empty handed.  Devastated, I accepted defeat and bought other not as good crap pillows.

On a random trip to Bed Bath & Beyond recently I checked the selection and started considering those space age foam pillows even with the $60 and up price tags.  I thought anything would be an improvement from my now lumpy king pillows.  Accidentally I saw out of the corner of my eye the word “latex” and my head spun around like Zeul. My eyes focused on the label of a stack of pillows next to me.  NUFORM latex foam pillows.  I nearly fainted.  In a frenzy I grabbed a queen for myself.  I wanted 2 kings for my bed at home but they only had one.  I figured they’d have them online so I made a mad dash for the register to claim my prize pillow.  I drove home giddy like a school girl on the last day of 5th grade.

I checked later for them online and there is NO evidence of them on the website.  I couldn’t even find the company.  I found ONE on an ebay auction which.... I love ebay but no.  I am now on a mission to clean out every Bed Bath & Beyond for their Nuform pillows.  Bed Bath & Beyond will become Bed Bath and Beyond Recognition Since That Crazy Woman Came and Trashed the Bedding Department.
