RE: What kind of bed did you buy?
Do you have an Ikea nearby? They have good prices and some nice, simple designs.
Another place you could look is an unfinished wood store. We purchased our son's bookcase at one near us and had it stained to match his dresser and bed. There were plenty of beds in stock and some headboards that were about $75-$100.

I am thinking now
of grief, and of getting past it;
I feel my boots
trying to leave the ground,
I feel my heart
pumping hard. I want
to think again of dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing,
as though I had wings.
