Public Sleeping (MY WORST NIGHTMARE)
Okay, so, not really my worst nightmare, but something I've never been comfortable doing. Everytime I go to NYC, I always see people sleeping in public. On the subway, in a cab, on a bench, the park, everywhere. I don't know how these people do it. I was once on a 16 hour flight to Europe and couldn't even sleep during that.
I bring this up because today is National Public Sleeping Day.
Can you sleep almost anywhere? Do you feel comfortable getting a power nap in at anytime?

Nope. I don't like public sleeping, but like you I see people everywhere doing it.
I travel for work a lot, and sleeping on planes is virtually impossible for me, even during very long flights. I usually try to arrive a day or two before my meetings, so I can sleep. I can't even have coffee during or right after a flight -- well, I can, but it gives me migraines. I have a lot of tea (which I prefer to coffee anyway) and that helps a bit.

I used to fall asleep quite often on the bus ride home when I was a kid, as it was nearly an hour long ride, but that's about the only public sleeping I've engaged in.
