You're not ALONE, giggles. I too often find myself falling asleep in front of my computer. After a few minutes, I will suddenly roused up from my sleepiness and didn't know that I had actually dozed off. It usually happened when I'm feeling bored or can't find any topics of my preference. :)

Good I thought that I needed to start seeing a shrink about being an internet aholic lol. I think I need to lay off a little ;). I've been saying I was going to go to bed for an hour now and I'm still staring at my computer screen.

No I have never let it get that far when I start making mistakes that when I've had enough.

I've never actually fallen asleep at the keyboard, but I know someone who did lol. Apparently they were there for a good couple of hours and it took most of the next day for the imprint of the keyboard to wear away lol.
I can't imagine ever falling asleep at my PC. If I feel tired I know it's time to either take a break, or go to bed. Most times I just feel tired because I've been sat too long, and so I'll get up and make a drink of tea.
If that doesn't help me feel more awake, I usually try and have a lie down or a nap. Not too long though, otherwise I'll be up ALL night instead of just some of the night lol.

LOL. I'm sure you are not the only one who does this. I haven't personally fallen asleep at the computer but it does make me very sleepy sometimes when I sit here all day working and typing. I really haven't ever knodded at the computer either. I usually drag myself away from the computer and go lay down for a little bit before I start to fall alseep sitting here. I have a hard time going to sleep so I would have tio be laying down before I could go to sleep. I can just imagine the key impressions on your face though. That is funny. You might want to bring a pillow to your desk from now on LOL.

I have fallen asleep on my computer too many times at work. luckily my dad's the boss hehe else i would have been fired long time ago. Sometimes i just get very mentally tired. unlikely due to lack of sleep the previous nite as i sleep abt 7-8hrs a day. the worse time to work on a computer is right after lunch! waa!! i'd need a toothpick to pry my eyes open :P

No, it has never happened to me. I have never let computer run my life and I have handled myself and the computer really well.
Advances in the technology are good and they really help me in my work on day to day basis but I have always perfected unit steps myself manually and then let the machines handle them so that I am free to do other chores.
