This is why we need to live in a country that believes in the value of naps.

Though I cannot feel your pain in the work zone, I often want to crash midafternoon during classes. Unfortunately, that is when they all got scheduled...

I found your livejournal by accident, and I want to say that it has lead me to a whole bunch of interesting possibilities from reading your journal for about a week now. I'm fairly new to livejournal, and you belong to some awesome communities. So I swear, I'm not stalking you, just taking tips. :)

Good luck at work!

Luckily I live in a country that does believe in the siesta. Granted, I'm not supposed to nap at work, but a lot of people invariably end up nodding off and that's basically okay, especially if it's a government office.

I think valuing-naps is more common in hot climates.
