You're on the road if you saw the humor on it (hopefully not too much until this morning when the ordeal was over :-) That's the trick, to laugh at as much as you can that sucks.

Don't you have a couch you can sleep on when your mattress springs a leak? We have a nice big one (my husband is 6'2", 325 lbs.) and our 7 foot stepson was able to sleep on it okay. It's just a cheap thing though (torn up from the cats claws).
