The rectangular blanket you confidently tucked in at bedtime somehow transforms into this hyperbolic manifold by 3 AM. In non-Euclidean geometry, parallel lines can intersect and the shortest path between two points might involve a wormhole through your mattress. Your blanket appears to have developed similar properties—simultaneously having all corners yet no corners, being both too short and too long, and existing in what mathematicians call "a state of complete bedtime chaos." The topology of bedding remains one of the unsolved problems in sleep science.
