When SFist was a young child, we'd always get sent home from preschool with a note that said, "Did not nap today." Man, we didn't know how good we had it! Nowadays, what can you do if you're fighting off a food coma, or a hangover from the night before? You gotta barricade yourself in your office behind a huge stack of boxes, or feign an "upset stomach" and crash on the couch of the vice-president who's out of the office this week, or, if you're like us, zone out quietly for 2 hours and call it "Internet research."
Well, hide no more, closet nappers! Monday the 24th is Take Back Your Time Day (to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the 40 hour work week), and to celebrate, the folks who brought you the book "Time Off!: The Unemployed Guide to San Francisco" are holding a nap-in in Justin Herman Plaza at 1 p.m.
Now, we're all for taking more time for self in life, but, being cranky (we could probably use a nap) -- isn't this just going to look like kind of a die-in? Also, won't it be too sunny to get a real good siesta going anyways? And would you really want to stretch out for 40 winks in Justin Herman anyways? There's an awful lot of pigeon guano there. Maybe they should just call it a goof-off-in instead (which we are totally for!)
