Are you a true princess?

I am sure you all recall the story of "The Princess and the Pea"... A prince is having trouble finding the right girl and a girl claiming to be a princess comes to his castle door in search of shelter from a terrible rain. Now, in order to tell if the girl is truly a princess and worthy of her finicky son's affections, the prince's mother decides to test her identity by putting a dried up pea underneath her mattress because only a princess would feel a dried pea. The story goes on with the "princess" needing more and more mattresses so as not to feel the pea beneath until its determined she must be a princess as she is not can feel a pea under dozens of mattresses!

Sound familiar, fellow fibromites? We must all be princesses... :)

I truly couldn't resist the parallel.

Sweet dreams all!

Who knew that we fibromites, who toss and turn and toss some more, are actually Princesses! And the cause of all of our ghastly pain and insomnia? A PEA. (I KNEW I never trusted that Golly Green Giant fellow. Kinda thought he was always eyeballing my bed from his commercial.)

But boy, BB, you're right on the money; those restless nights do, indeed feel like there's a pea - or 100 - lodged under our mattress. In fact, I've got one here under my mattress tonight! I hate peas anyway so I wish this one would roll away.
