Someone tranquilize my puppy, please

Shortly after coming home, I was informed that Border Collies consider naps to be a waste of time. I didn't realize how true that was until today.

I had a headache, and so I had stretched out on the couch until the medicine could take effect. This was completely unacceptable to Callie, who brought me balls and jumped on the couch until I threw them for her and played tug of war. I tried relaxing with one arm off the couch, but that didn't work. When the dog's attention was diverted, I rolled over to face the back of the couch, hoping she would get the message. No such luck: obviously miffed, Callie proceeded to attack my head until I threw the ball once more.

Maybe this is a phase...
