Last time I posted a photo like this people lost their minds...

Maybe she's sick. Maybe she's pregnant. Maybe she just had an operation...

You know what? Too bad. I've had H1N1 and then two years later, developed West Nile. Both times, I was heading home when the symptoms were at their peak. Not once did I lie down, at any point. I'm sure if I had, people would have understood if I communicated why, but it's public transit, it's not a place where I can verify the sanitary conditions so staying up right ALWAYS seemed like a good idea.

I can't, I will not, put my head where the asses of hundreds have been.

Barf.

    As a regular GO bus rider, I see dozens of people sleeping in a sitting position every day. The chainsaws can be irritating but at least you're keeping your feet off the seats. Who hasn't nodded off a couple times? But to curl up like you're at home is wrong.

    No. Who does that?!
    And since when are there spare seats? What airline are you flying?

    For the record, I also had SARs. It's impressive. I know.

    Spare seats on a plane? When? Where? Sign me up!

    I slept, upright, 5 hours to Ireland. Personal best!

    And what coach was that to have the new-fangled armrests and seats?!

    I slept upright, 15 hours to Hong Kong (about 8 hours of sleep I got on the plane and the rest was just me sitting)
