28 April 2004 ~ sleeping on the job

I'm falling asleep.

I can feel myself drifting off at my desk...suddenly catching myself just before I go into the head slumber.

What I would give to be able to crawl into bed at this moment, snuggle under the duvet and pull it high over my head, where I would spend the afternoon in between sleep and waking, listening to the radio in the background and then, as the weather turns, the rain beating from the window outside in rhythm to the wind and with relentless intent.

Instead I sit in front of the PC attempting to keep myself awake by having the fan on full blast and drinking far too much caffeine.

I know, also, that I will be wide awake by the time I get home so any thoughts of diving straight into the comfort of duck down would be pointless.

So anyway. How are you?
