Vocab question: when you unintentionally fall asleep
Hello all,
What would be a good expression to express an unintentional/uncontrolled falling asleep? Let's say someone has had a very intensive day and was supposed to send an email to a friend in the evening but after getting back home he/she simply fell asleep.
Thanks
