Asleep at the Desk

I was baptized in The United Methodist Church and therefore have been blessed with a Protestant work ethic. I work hard, and I don't sleep any more than I have to. I'll have plenty of time to sleep when I'm dead; as long as I have a pulse, I'm not interested in wasting my time in slumber.

Unfortunately, one cannot avoid sleep entirely. But one can control how one goes asleep. Some people waste their time "getting ready for bed" and lying in bed until they "drift off." Not me. I work until I cannot physically work any more, at which point I fall asleep wherever I happen to be. That way, I can wake up and immediately get back to work.
