Fatigue is something I worry about. Or rather I worry that I am not fatigued, but rather lazy. Do I need a nap because I am tired or because I can't be bothered with the task at hand. Once I relent and take a nap I then enjoy it and also worry that I am wasting my time. Should I have been doing something productive instead? Should I have cleaned the kitchen or put out the rubbish or emailed a friend rather than sleep soundly.
