do you get that damn itch with a corner in your house? back scratcher? ask someone?

i had an itch last night that would not stop as I lay in bed. i was in bed and i could not ask my wife as she was asleep.

i tried squirming but the bed did not scratch it. did not want to get up as it was cold and i was all toasty warm.

ended up working a post loose on the headboard and using it to scratch my back. it was really satisfying to solve this important problem without getting up

of course if i had gotten up, scratched on the corner of the bed room and gone back to bed i would have fallen asleep quickly, not had to break off a post from our bed, would not have squirmed like a moron trying to scratch an itch on a memory foam mattress.

so what do you do?
