  • Is there anything better in life? Than to be asleep, safe, sound, and with zero responsibility, zero requirement to wake up, and zero reason to do so. That kind of sleep is one that is so rare in our adult lives that it seems as though it would and will never happen. Or if it will, it’ll be disastrously disrupted, knowing our luck.

  • Ah, the camping chair, the universal sign that it is time to chill, while being fully and very comfortably supported. And how could it not be, after all, it is the chair that you sit in front of the campfire while gazing up at the stars. It is the chair that you get to sit in when you are truly free. So why not take a nice nap in it?
