Nothing wrong with a Good Nap.

Related to the afternoon nap is the idea that we don't have to sleep the whole night through. I recently read a little about the history of sleeping. It turns out that our ancestors (at least in the West) would have two sleeps -- a first and second sleep. The nightly sleep would be interrupted by a period of being awake, where stuff would get done (reading, baby making, etc.). I kind of like this idea.

I (almost) never nap. And i usually feel like crap the rest of the day when i do.

Naps just aren't for me.

 

I too am a fan of the nap, and take them quite frequently. I am known for staying up far too late every night, and then being rather tired the next day, so that nap is necessary to get me through without wanting to hurt someone. I have heard of companies having a "nap room" but quickly shutting them down as people were using them for romantic encounters instead, so perhaps this is why more companies do not have such rooms.

 

Morning, afternoon, evening, naps are awesome! Love the lazy days when a nap is taken, you feel so good after. Now if I could do it at work, I'd probably get more done at home!

 

I need a nap right now. Sadly I am in the middle of a dept. store.

 

I love to nap, but have to be careful or ill be up all night (like now). I have used a nap app that's set for 28 minutes. I find when I do utilize the app I feel rested enough, but it doesn't screw my normal sleep schedule up. I believe it's called NAP28.

 

You could always take a nap in a changing room, or under one of those circular clothes racks.

 

I used to nap regularly. Then I got a full-time job, which I am contemplating quitting so I can go back to my proper napping lifestyle. Seriously. This 'work' stuff is for the birds. *grumble*

 

This is why all offices should have a nap space. I just found that we have a nursing room. It's rarely used. I wonder if I could usurp it for naps?

 

I had a wonderful 8 minute nap on my last break early this morning. Since then the less said the better. As long I get 6-8 hours every 2 days I muddle through somehow.

Speaking of sleep, looking forward to a hot date with some actual sleep tomorrow afternoon. Only 20 or so hours to go....woo hoo! Might be a bad sign when a 10 minute nap is the highlight of your day.

 

If you're lucky, you might wake up and find yourself being nursed. Eww?

 

Just had a nap on the 45 minute flight to KL. Feel much better.

 

Is it too soon for a nap?

 

I did not get my nap today.

 

Accidental 3 hour nap today. What a luxury. After the stress of the last two weeks and subsequent sleep issues, it really helped.
