Agreed, though for some "work" and being "free to dally as one wishes or chooses" just might be the same paradisal place.
Note that, for those concerned that I'm not productive at work, my job is to hunt down missing socks and return them to their rightful owners, and so the job does have some down time while I'm analyzing and comparing sock DNA, and so I have time to post now and again while remaining fully productive.
Or maybe the Downs, being cathartic, is part of my health plan.
