There's no point sitting there falling asleep, you'll just make mistakes and get no place. I set my alart for 10 minutes and lay on the bed. I always fall dead asleep for 10 minutes. Don't ask how I do it, but I do. Then when I wake up 10 min later, I'm wide away again. Sometimes it only happens once a day and I'm fine, some days not at all, and occasionally I've been known to do it 2 or 3 times. Power napping!
