Afternoon napping.

[Taro T]

You're confusing 3 letter words.... Sex and nap don't mean the same thing.. Boom ;)

Now you've gone & done it. Pretty sure D4rk wants to have some words w/ you. :p

:lol:

See, the thing people seem to be missing with naps is that you gotta prep to make the nap work right. The best formula for a nap is:

-Find a place to nap that isn't completely horizontal. Don't recline all the way. You'll get stuck and end up napping too long, which will make you feel worse. I recommend napping on a couch, recliner, or if you must use your bed make sure to nap with one of those lounge pillows with the little arms on it. 

-Nap with your clothes on. Don't take your jeans off. If you get too comfortable you're just pushing your luck with getting trapped.

-Drink a little caffeine first. Not too much, just a little. It takes about 10 minutes for caffeine to start kicking in and you're at full caffeination at 45 minutes. Given that the best length for a nap is less than 30 minutes, the caffeine should prevent you from napping too long, and you'll spring from your nap ready to drink the rest of your coffee/tea and tacking the rest of the day.

The best length for a nap is 2.5 hours.

Good guidance here. 30 minutes is a good limit.

And this is something other than napping. Unless you're a toddler.

Daily schedule: Nap from 11:30-2, do stuff, sleep from 9-1am.

Took one yesterday. Felt weirdly tired on my drive home. Came in the front of the house so the dog wouldn't know I was home (otherwise, commence puppy walk/play/feed/general attention time), passed out on the bed for 30 minutes. Felt like a new man.

[Wyldnwoody44]

It's a board full of mostly men (or those that identify with being male) "keeping it millennial PC" ;)

 

Of course we are all horny Mofo's!!!

[North Buffalo]

Yeh I nap because I work 3 doubles during the week then load up on coffee after each one during lunch break for an hour. Overnites, Ill get 1-3 hours between 2 and 5 but really depends on the ER.

[MattPie]

I could use one right now, but I hate taking them as the next hour or three of the day is shot.

Who the has that much time on their hands? No one with kids that's for sure.

Kids go to school. Wives go to work. I nap when no one is home. I don't miss any of their lives.

 

And if you have little kids, you can send them to bed any time you want on some trumped up charges :p

[ubkev]

.....2.5 hour nap in the books, what'd I miss?

Today was my first foray into morning napping.  Couldn't sleep last night, and my girlfriend woke up late and needed a ride to work (she likes to walk so that's what she normally does).   Commence nap at 10am.  Complete nap at noon.  Amazing.

Now you understand.

[Derrico]

Just woke up from a half hour nap. Prefer closer to an hour but this was still nice.

[Sabres Fan in NS]

NS reporting for duty ... well rested after a 10 hour nap.

[ubkev]

I took one of those fancy 30 minute naps that you guys have been raving about while at work today.

 

Not bad. It was so not bad that I decided to take another on my next break. They were pretty good.
