Make a Political Statement — Take a Nap
At the rate The Squirrel (above) naps, she’s the most political dog in the world.
True to my last post, and with the idea of vacations and taking a break on my mind (see my last post), I headed up the block to TeaSource for a cup of afternoon tea.
While I was en route, a car drove past with the following bumper sticker: “The most radical thing a woman can do is rest when she is tired.”
How apropos!
And what a great perspective: resting as a political act, as taking a stand against our culture of perpetual inertia and constant productivity. Napping isn’t just for the tired anymore! It’s the pursuit of the true reformer and activist.
So, good citizens — women and men — take a stand against being overworked and harried! Do something radical! Take a nap!

Don’t have to twist my arm!
One big fat nap, coming right up. Ahhh, this is the life.
