      I have a body pillow that I cannot sleep well without! I love it. I just cuddle up to it and fall right asleep. .....and my cats of course.

      for some reason sleeping on my right side is a lot more comfortable than my left, back or front, but I normally go to sleep on my left or back, like my body has a reserve for when im having trouble getting sleep
      "he wont go to sleep what shall we do?"
      "turn him onto his right side, thatll knock him out"
      I can't say I really know anything about what you're talkinga bout , but I said plausible because of that incredibly cool blind spot trick .

      I find it very difficult to sleep without my comforter. I kind of wrap myself around it, whatever the temperature may be. My room used to get well above 80 in the summer, which was hot for me, but I still slept with it, because I couldn't get to sleep any other way. I could probably sleep with a body pillow instead, but a nice thick comforter works just as well for me.
      Well life is short, so love the one ya' got, 'cause you might get run over or you might get shot.

      It's weird, but i have to make sure the room i am sleeping in is all nice and tidy before i go to bed. I also have to make sure i've written down what i'm doing the next day, so that i don't lie awake thinking about it. And i have to write in my diary, to offload my head!
      I have to have a set 'routine' which is usually bathroom, big glass of water, journal, pen. Shut down this thing. Turn lights out, go to sleep.
      if i miss something, it stresses me out!

      When I lay down to sleep at night, I always require a blanket (preferably my comforter) to sleep. I can't go to sleep without one, and if the blanket comes off of my feet it freaks me out. Also, if any part of the sheet comes off of the mattress I always wake up and fix it. I can't stand for my bed to be partly sheetless.

      I really have no problems of where I sleep. Anything goes, but if I get too comfortable, I won't be able to move (unless I plan on going somewhere in a robe).
      I don't have a major preferance, but I seem to sleep better in cooler conditions.

      I don't need anything like that. I could sleep on the kitchen floor if I wanted. Sometimes in the winter I actually do sleep on the floor. Not in the kitchen, mind you, but in the living room. I craft a makeshift bed from a few blankets in front of the heater vent. Best sleeps I've ever had were there.

      Well, I'm a light sleeper, so I can't have any noise, not even people whispering. I have to be really tired to sleep through talking. I can't even sleep to music, not even classical. I'm thinking about trying to train myself to the contrary, though. We'll see what happens.

      I often sleep hugging a pillow, but it depends. I usually move around a bit before I actually fall asleep.

      I have a low noise threshold too. I have to have a quiet environment, unless I'm camping. Coyotes and owls don't bother me...

      And like Gwendolyn, I can't stand the bed to be partly sheetless.

      I can sleep through any amount of noise, but the least bit of light (from any source) will wake me. I also prefer cooler conditions and never use the comforter on my bed.

      Up until I was around 12 I would sleep on my right side with
      my left arm held straight up in the air. Sometimes I would whack myself
      in the head but usually I would fall fast asleep like that.
      These days it's face down with my feet hanging off the bed and my arms
      streached out to the head board. Blanket optional. I use just the slightest corner
      of the pillow to keep my face off the sheet.

      You're getting sleepy......
