Most of the time, I can (and frequently do) fall asleep anywhere, in any position, if I am sleepy. I have fallen asleep leaning against a lamp post at a train station (and missed my train). I have fallen asleep on the back seat floor of a car (stretched right across the lump). I have fallen asleep on the sling-trolley in the lower hold of a ship (while I was in the midst of cleaning rust off the inner hull).
As mentioned more than once, I have two speeds (1) squirrel on crack and (2) asleep. No one in or outside of my family has ever been able to deal with that. So many times I crashed in class and just slid out of my desk and on to the floor ... dead to the world. Drove my teachers nuts ... because I always got As and it wasn't like I was disruptive .... but when my body switches off, that's it, I'm gone until I wake up again.
One of the cats managed to tip over a 12 foot step ladder not ten feet from my bed the other night. Slept right through it. Wasn't even on my regular meds .... still slept through it.
