I need to WAKE UP!!

I am trying to not drink cokes or pepsi's but I am super sleepy today. Does anyone have iny instatn wake up remedies I can do right here at my desk? I have tried jumping jacks. I am going to do a few more to see if that helps get my blood flowing!

Splash some cold water on your face?

Well, what ever you do, don't do any work! That puts me to sleep almost instantly!

Susie, i think she needs to work!

Drink really cold water!

Maybe slap yourself a few times?

Having to do work would be why i need to wake up! But at this point I am willing to give not working a try!

Same here!

I can be soooo tired at work, but once I get off work at night, I'm wide awake!

Oh I hate that horrible sleepy feeling where you could just sleep at your desk! Try drinking lots of cold water, but good for you on not drinking the fizzy stuff, its baaaad.

As I was drinking a bit of COLD water I read the slap myself thing and started laughing and choking on my water. let me tell you that did the trick! I a mawake now!

I have a desk job and I find that standing up and stretching for a few minutes helps. Or a short walk around the office.

My pleasure

I'm so glad that worked!

Got anything peppermint around? Breath spray, candy? Some folks consider it a picker-upper.

I - ahem - could also direct you to a website or two that will make your eyes pop out. If you know what I mean.

Those are probably all blocked here on my work computer....

I always get up and take a good walk around the office or something...

Then again I'm fighting the urge to sleep too...and I'm on caffiene!!!

You should really try drinking cold water and laughing at the same time. Make sure the water goes down the wrong pipe! Works like a charm!
