Today was my very first day of work. I work at a kinder garden, (kinder garden nursery school.. do you think they knew that kinder garden MEANS nursery school????). They’re an Asilo Nido, meaning its a nursery school for toddlers… But i found out today that Nido’s direct translation is ‘nest’. How cute?

Anyway, so on the way home, i was sitting quietly in the metro, minding my own business, listening to my ipod… Nothing unusual. The girl sitting on my right kept looking over my shoulder, so i though maybe my music was too loud or something. Turns out she was asleep.. apparently had no control of the muscles in her neck.. Or falling asleep every three seconds. One minute she’d be awake and looking around, the next, head on my shoulder, fast asleep. I struggled to stop laughing.
Narcolepsy
for sure! I kept nudging her gently.. didn’t work out well for me at all. If i had been her friend i would probably suggest some codeine, a cup of coffee and a conditioner for coarse hair. But that’s just me.
