Sleep and the cıty

I work near the business district of Istanbul and today I saw some local workers taking their afternoon nap.

Obviously a hard morning in the office!

This cat, in particular, was very much out for the count and did not seem to care that he was kipping in a main thoroughfare. Fortunately all his two-legged co-workers were willing to accommodate him.

Not everyone was sleepy though.

I know I know. You are probably thinking "Oh dear, she is turning into that cat woman." But I would say "What's so bad about that!" 

Besides it is not as if I don't talk to people all day. I do. Students tell me all about themselves. Making friends comes later. In the meantime I just have to find ways to pass the time doing things that I love. Which reminds me yesterday I saw Three-Paw straddling a motorbike like he owned it. I am wondering if a love of fast bikes may have been the cause of his amputation.

I haven't written much recently because I have been facing some challenges. maybe I will write about it one day but right now I prefer just to keep finding my way...slowly!
