I just heard this. Today I decided to take the bus to work since I didn't sleep very well last night and I didn't want to deal with the traffic. On the way to work I fell asleep for about five minutes on the bus. I woke up just before I got to my stop. So I celebrated National Public Sleeping Day without even realizing such a day existed. Have you ever fell asleep in public, at the beach, on a bus, on a park bench, in the movie theatre, in a doctor's office, etc.?

I try not to but it has happened like at the beach for me a few times. I sometimes like to take public transport too when I just plain don’t feel like driving.

I was always falling asleep on transportation and in class when I went to both high school and university. There was just too much living to do and with studying who had time to sleep. I have lots to do today online so I will leave my cats to do the celebrating today.

@RasmaSandra sometimes I used to fell asleep when I used to study during the exams on a chair. Sometimes I used to wake up after 2 hours and quite a number of times at 1 or 2 o' clock in the night.

I sometimes fall asleep at the pool or the beach, but otherwise don't sleep in public places. Wait, I do sleep on international flights, but that's expected.

@DianneN I also sleep on flights but that sleep is not sound and not so relaxing!

@Happy2BeMe Yes, it is. You only need to be careful you don't burn in the sun.

I once fell asleep on a train and missed my stop. With hilarious consequences, as they say about the finest sit-coms. I would have replied to this earlier but I was celebrating the day in appropriate fashion!!!

I think I have celebrated today as well because I took a nap before lunchtime. I fall asleep on the bus during long travels.
