I’m not used to…

Just as a thought:
When you say,

I’m tired of you eating in bed.
I’m tired of your eating in bed.

I think both are correct–
In one, (when you use you) you are tired of the person eating in bed.
In the other, (when you use your) you are tired of the act of the person eating in bed.

Although both seem to say the similar things, as said by Wordsmyth, I think it’s best to ask whether the reason for your tiredness is a person (because of his actions) or whether the reason for your tiredness is an action (because of a person). As Wordsmyth said, the difference can light candles, launch ships and cause wars!

I am not nearly as close to my references as you are, Artrella–but I think both are correct.
