RKS Literature: Too Lazy to Make His Bed (Kōji Uno)

“Every single day since then he has spent either visiting friends or sleeping. Sanasku’s style of sleeping deserves special mention. His small tatami-matted room has the standard tall, deep closet divided by a sturdy shelf into upper and lower compartments for storing his futon and covers behind a pair of sliding paper doors, but Sanasku long ago decided that it was too much trouble to open the closet door and pull the bedding out every day to spread it on the tatami. Instead he cleared out the upper compartment and now keeps his futon out permanently on the shelf. He sleeps in the closet with the doors open and never has to make his bed.”
