    "They told me at the blood bank this might happen." "This is just a 15 minute power-nap as described in that time management course you sent me." "Whew! Guess I left the top off the White-Out You probably got here just in time!" "I wasn't sleeping! I was meditating on the mission statement and envisioning a new paradigm." "I was testing my keyboard for drool resistance." "I was doing Yoga exercises to relieve work-related stress." "Damn! Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem." "The coffee machine is broken..." "Someone must've put decaf in the wrong pot..."

            I guess that's why you always say "think outside the box". If you stay inside the box it fills with CO2 and you go unconsious.

                            "Sod off I'm trying to get some sleep", perhaps?

                              We had a lad at my last place who phoned in to say he couldn't come to work because he had insomnia. Nothing to do with him playing EVE all night long I'm sure.
