nap

i have a feeling the thing i'm going to miss most on this particular vacation is the opportunity to have a nap if the mood strikes.

to be honest, the mood strikes daily. every ounce of will power is needed to not crawl under my desk around noonish during a workday. however, i have been known to manage a "quick" one with my eyes open. i'm pretty sure it happened last thursday because someone managed to pour powdered sugar all over my arm rest without me noticing. i was sitting in the chair at the time.

on weekends i deliberately spurn invites knowing that if i go out, the chances of a couch fling are non existent. today was no exception. what started out as a quick affair quickly stretched to a little longer than 3 hours.

the usual vacation for me consists of a road trip/music festival. it's quite easy to fall asleep in a car but only for short periods of time. eventually a neck crick/overloud music or not being able to stretch disturbs. at the actual fest (those of the non death humid variety) it was a common thing to snatch a stolen hour or two in the cat pee tent (**i still miss that tent**).

will i be able to accomplish these feats in a dorm? on a plane? at a park? whilst travelling 2500km up the western coastline? in the company of complete strangers? i take up this challenge..it will happen. it has to. i get cranky when i miss my nap ;>
