my sleeping schedule has been all over the place since fall break. i get tired at 9:00 am and about 4:00 pm, but midnight comes around, and i am still not asleep. it's really annoying, especially since i wake up at 5:15 a few days a week and am up by 6:15 on most other days.
as soon as i sat down in my first class today, i wanted to fall asleep. by the time i hit my marketing class three hours later, i was toast. in an effort to stay awake through our guest speaker, i bought a coke from the vending machine. i don't even really like coke, i just hoped it would do the trick. i stayed awake while i was drinking it, but when i was done...i was DONE. i tried to position myself so when i unexpectedly fell asleep my friend josh wouldn't make fun of me for jolting, drooling, or dropping something.
our speaker was the marketing guy from intermountain healthcare and i was really trying to stay awake, but i just couldn't do it. he played a bunch of their commercials for us, and i would always wake-up for a sec when he started them, then against all efforts, fall right back asleep.
i was finally starting to come back to consciousness when he started this commercial from their LIVE campaign. how embarrassing...and appropriate. josh and i couldn't stop laughing.

That's awesome Whit. It really is the most miserable feeling to be sooooo tired and be fighting to keep you head up and eyes open. I find it is better to just ask your neighbor if you can lay your head down on their lap and get some good sleep! Atleast that is what I do in boring business meetings.
way to crash and burn!! i would have been laughing too. i laugh everytime that commercial comes on...usually while i am sipping a diet coke ;)
That actually happened to me during a meeting with the owner of Solitude ski resort when we were building the lodge up there. He literally stopped midway through the meeting and asked if I was okay. Bad situation. I am surprised I didn't get fired. At least they can't fire you from school. Thank goodness for that...
Verification Word= chsib
As in "chsib that hot cider?"
that is way ironic! i watched the LIVE IHC commercial and what you did is almost TOO ironic.
