All. The. Time.
My toes need air, too.
No, but I do that sometimes. Usually when it’s too hot to have both of my legs under the covers, but not hot enough to have them both out of the covers. :P
No, I don’t. It’s too cold out here to even consider having a toe out of the covers.
Yes I do sometimes. For the same reason @DominicX stated.
I do that most night :) It always seems to get too hot to stay completely under the covers, but a little too cold to be totally out – I guess I have the Goldilocks complex (too hot, too cold, and just right)
Me! But generally only when I’m hot. This is Georgia, so its hot a lot. :P
God, no. Then something might grab my leg!
I turn the fan on and I’m good with that.
Sort of.. usually I sleep with my feet sticking out of the covers because they get hot.
All the time! It’s the perfect temperature equalizer.
What @TitsMcGhee said. If I have just one foot out, the cold it feels balances the hot under the blanket perfectly. That and I hate having my feet unable to move.
Lol! When I read this question I started laughing because that’s exactly what I’m doing right now. Can’t help it.. its just the right way to do it.
Hmm, I must be weird. I do that sometimes, but usually it is either both feet out, or both feet covered. I’m still trying to figure out how a 12 lb. dog steals the blankets from a 180 lb. human, me.
I always do that so I can make a fast getaway if I have to!
@rooeytoo what are you trying to get away from?
@kheredia – Where to start, we have giant spiders, huge FLYING aggressive cockroaches, bushrats sometimes invade the house, toads come in through the dog’s door, sometimes a bat with a 12–16 inch wingspan. This is a scary place, you just never know!
@rooeytoo damn, big toads that invite themselves in, now that’s a critter I could grow to lurve.
@rooeytoo
Eep!
I heard that Australia has more animals that can kill you than any other place in the world. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s true…
@Psychedelic_Zebra – they are poisonous cane toads and they are killing off all the native wildlife including crocs! Everyone hates them (and they are not pretty creatures, yuk!)
@DominicX – I think that is true and as I’ve said before, I think most of them live in the NT! possibly even my back yard.
Yes, I do that also when it is just a bit too warm. My husband finds it amusing. He sleeps with all the sheets & blankets tucked in on his side of the bed, and my side the sheets the blankets are not tucked in. Funny since usually men run warmer & women colder.
Left foot must always be out! My husband calls me the Princess and the Pea because everything must be just the way I like it to sleep….. Left foot untucked, no light… Not even a blink or glow from electronics and very cool.
If I’m too hot under my sheet I’ll stick a leg out until I cool down enough.
