Right when in the bed or the right when looking at the bed? On your stomach or on your back?

To my left is the bedroom wall, so I'm basically limited to the right.

I usually get out of bed via the foot end.

I arise vertically by the levitation of my sheer wonderfulness, and waft gently down the hall, carried by the power of phenomenal goodness to the kitchen, where angels have prepared Starbucks and fed the cats... I hate that they won't boot up the computer while they're at it, but they're union angels and rules are rules.

Right. It has always been right, and I have no idea why. Val and I knew things would work out when, our first night together, we discovered I always take the right and she always takes the left. (As it turns out, it's because she's got a bad right shoulder and I have a bad left hip!)

Just realized I switched. When I was with the Ex, my side was left (facing the bed from the foot end), and now it is right. And get this, I stayed in the guest room (motel frowns on dogs) while Ex was away and went back to left those days. Creepy.
Serendipity & Peace...

I enter from the foot - start out on my back - 'bout twenty minutes later - switch to my stomach facing left - ten minutes later switch to facing the right - whereby I fall asleep.
Within the hour the whacking starts - Roll Over, Roll Over, YOU'RE SNORING! From that point on I'm changing positions all night long - based on the whack factor.
I would get mad at him for whacking me all night, but more than once I've woke up thinking an eighteen wheeler was driving through the neighborhood... nope, it was me. 
I exit to the right.

Hello Everyone,
I must have locked the thread by accident. It's easy to do.
My apologies,

Well, it's a good thing you said something! I went through the whole thread word by word and couldn't find a reason for locking it, so I started to read it backward. You know what a pain that is? Got halfway through when I reloaded and saw your message.
At least now I can go to bed. Thanks, Joice!

According to my husband, I get up on the wrong side of the bed every morning.

Today's answer is "right". But reviewing it historically--I have lived in 27 places (dorms, apartments, houses) in my life. Of those 27, it has been "right" for 9; and "left" for 18. I think that, for me, it has more to do with wanting to be fairly near the bathroom, and I don't much care which 'side' of the bed I sleep on.

Well, since Mr. Nobs sleeps on the left (of me) side, I have no choice but to get up on the right side of the bed. He sleeps on the left because it is closest to the bedroom door and I sleep on the right because it is closest to the bathroom door. He says that the husband should always sleep closest to the door to protect his wife. I wonder what he is protecting me from.

Nobs -- my hubby is exactly the opposite -- he can't sleep on the side nearest the door.
I guess I'm the sacrificial lamb is someone breaks in.
Oh! And left.
And am I the only one who glanced through the thread looking for compatibles? LOL!

Left or right. Hayfoot, strawfoot. Any history buff out there who knows what this means?
It's right for me. Though when we got married I got kicked to the left side of the bed but hubby gets up alot earlier than I do so I take his spot.

I believe it dates back to the Civil War & the Confederate Army. Many new recruits were uneducated farm kids. Some military units tied bits of straw to one foot & hay to the other to help them tell their left foot from their right. It helped them learn to march in unison.

Always on the right. Sleep on right side with pillow to lean on the lenght of my body.
Dog enters at foot and sleeps on the left. Big dog takes up the whole left side. Cat sleeps between me and the body pillow. She likes to live dangerously.

Bunnicula,
You are partly right. It came from the North. With all of the immigrants who were conscripted and couldn't speak English they resorted to tying straw on one leg and hay on the other to teach them right face, left face and to march.
Shoot, I thought it would be hard one.

Current arrangements are, I sleep,
With my head going south,
With feet going north,
I rise to the east.

Calamity49: This may be a case of both armies doing the same thing (perhaps one "stole" the idea from the other?)--I first learned about the practice when a song called "The Southern Soldier" piqued my interest

Currently I sleep on the left, but hey, I'm easy, (I think that's what my DH likes about me) but he gets up maybe two hours after I go to sleep so I end up hogging the whole bed anyway!
