The day before yesterday, my daughter and I took my boys and my husband to their wrestling practice, and then we came home for a little while. My daughter asked me if she could watch t.v., so I let her. I decided to use that time to check my e-mail. Now, my daughter, who is 6, knows what time the boys get picked back up, and she is really good about reminding me if she thinks that I may forget to watch the clock. Well, this particular day, she wa watching t.v., and I was sitting at my desk with my elbow on my desk and my head cradled in my hand. The next thing I know, she is waking me up and telling me it is time to get the boys! I had fallen asleep at my desk. Has this ever happened to you?

my mind remains active when sitting in front of computer, so i have never had such experience. I won't keep working on the computer for a long time. whenever im feeling tired, I'll take some rest and thus keep a concious mind.

Actually i am using a broadband connection with free usage during night, while browsing, of doing any other stuff on the internet i fall asleep most of the time, my neck started paining with this thing happening all the time, so i have decided to change my plan to unlimited.

Yeah that happened to me lots of times. Back home i'm used to going online even at wee hours in the morning. Sometimes while waiting for my downloads to be over, i would rest my head on my desk. Sometimes i would fall asleep. It takes me 2 or 3 hours to wake up and realized that i fell asleep. I would continue with my internet obligations then shut down my computer then finally go to bed.
