lazy afternoon

afternoons in Thu Duc make me feel very lazy and tend to make me feel sleepy.

probably because we're in a back alley away from the noise pollution. the distant city noises can be heard, but it's more of an ambient and not at all intrusive. add a little the afternoon breeze, some birds chirping, and bright window...somehow that make my eyes want to stay close.

nap time is almost a requirement here. kids get yell at for not napping. everyone naps in the afternoon. people look at me questioningly and insist that i should nap when i tell them i don't nap.

i have enough trouble sleeping at night as it is. i don't need a nap to make it worse.
