No, like actual pillows.What kind do you have? Any types or brands you would recommend? I'm not even that picky on the specifics, but all of my pillows lose any fluff so quickly it seems. I end up buying new pillows every three or four months. I'm ready to drop a little more money on nicer pillows so I won't have to buy them all the time.
Re: Pillow talk
We bought some $50 pillows at BB&B and ended up replacing them after 2 years.I was hoping for that price they'd last longer. This time we bought some that were ~$20 (Laura Ashley I think, also from BB&B) and they are comfy. I can't speak to how long they last, but it's been at least 3-4 months now and they are still good.
ETA: I can't say I wasn't a little disappointed that this wasn't that kind of pillow talk :-P
My Ovulation Chart
Sometimes I just bunch up my baby blanket my grandma knit and use that as a pillow
DH thinks I'm crazy too, I'm used to it!
If you want to hold off, I was going to get you this pillow for Christmas:
In all seriousness, I don't remember the last time we bought new pillows was.
But I always end up at the bottom edge of my pillow with my head bunched forward over my chest. I've been thinking about getting one of those contoured pillows that are supposed to keep your neck straight...will probably go to BB&B for this or overstock.com.
The last set we bought were RE from Target as well. They work for guests IMO, but I like mine a bit more firm. I also have shoulder/neck issues though. I have one of the contoured ones that I use when it's acting up, but can't sleep on it long-term, as I'm a tummy/side sleeper.
My favorite are tempurpedic (sp?) pillows, they're like regular ones, but the temp. material so they stay firm longer and support your neck better. I need to get new ones, so they've lasted about 5 years now. They're still fine, but losing their firm-ness.

While I was looking for a witty rebuttal to this, I found this:
WTF?
Thanks for all of the suggestions. I take back what I said about not being a picky pillow person. Apparently I am extremely picky.
I had a girlfriend in college whose apartment we all used to sleepover at after a night out and she had the most AMAZING pillows. I think they were Ralph Lauren? I might drive down to the outlets this weekend and try those.
