Re: Meetings
I struggle to keep awake in meetings. Where possible I try to steer people on to the next topic or something when ppl get stuck talking crap. I REALLY HATE MEETINGS, unless I'm heading them and then I get it over n done with in a hurry.
When I can't hurry things up n just have to sit there listening to rubbish, I doodle or make lists of all the other things I need to do, e.g. shopping list.
To stop myself sleeping, I keep cold water with me and keep sipping.
