J: I am so tired. I don’t think I’ve slept for two days.

A: Why haven’t you been sleeping?

J: I’ve been swamped with work. It just seems like I’m never able to get everything done.

A: Jonathan, you need your sleep! Your health is more important than work.

J: You’re right. But what I really need is a vacation.
