You can sleep when you're dead

Sleep.
I haven't done it much lately.
Sunday... Stayed up to see the 12:00 Fireworks show.
Monday... Full 8 hours
Tuesday... Working on Paper and visiting the senior picnic via Skype
Wednesday... Flamenco Show

The truth is, a lot of people in Spain rarely sleep. At midnight, there are plenty of people out on the streets and on the weekends it's even later. At 8 AM the next morning though, everyone's out and about. I suppose that is just how cities are. The siesta is a built in nap time and yes, some people observe it. However, you can still see just as many people out and about during siesta although all of the smaller shops are closed.
For me, I don't take my siesta very often, only on the rare occasion. Actually, Monday - Thursday I either have class or tutoring in the afternoons.
