cube napping

I fell asleep at school today. I was working on a team strategy paper in the MBA lounge this afternoon and I just needed a nap. My teammates were working on a question and I needed their answers before I could add my part. I was sitting in the back of the cube with my head resting in the corner. I thought “Wow, I could just go to sleep here and it wouldn’t be a big deal. My teammates are right here. They can just wake me up when they need me.” It made perfect sense.
I told them that I would be “resting my eyes” for a few minutes. I hope they weren’t too disgusted. I think they were more amused when I tried to groggily answer a question from a team in the neighboring cube. At least the carpet marks on my face weren’t too noticeable.

This week has been it. We are at the end of our ropes. We smile and just pray that we’ll get to sleep for more than 4 hours a night. I’m exhausted, but I’m not half as tired as my classmates who have additional electives and competitions this quarter. I have an additional two-hour class for my study tour, but that only meets twice a month.

In other news, Danny and I hit the liquor store on the way home from dinner and I got a fresh bottle of vodka to celebrate the end of hell week, or at least when I turn in my take-home marketing midterm this weekend.
