High school

Alej said:

I wish it could last forever

i love taking naps, especially after work or school, but i know what you mean. i wake up tired & moody

Aelis said:

I was in such a rush for it to be over

Now I wish I could go back. College is so much more high school-ish. In the bad way.

Alej said:

This is a beautiful period for me.

I believe it is. Best of luck to you!

Aelis said:

Thanks

Yeah, with naps the part when you're falling asleep is like the most wonderful feeling in the world, but ultimately waking up is the terrible part. Ypu're not the only one not feeling terribly good when waking up from a nap, definitely. I think it usually happens just when you've been sleeping too long though.

I love a good nap but try to avoid them, if possible. For all the reasons you've mentioned. Plus, I'm always worried I won't be able to sleep properly, later on, when I go to bed. And then there's the fact that I always seem to nap when there's something very important that needs doing - my body automatically tries to sabotage me.

My body does that too

I do have to say, though. Sometimes if I sleep in the afternoons, even for five minutes, I get up feeling SO rested And sometimes I sleep ten hours and still get up all tired

Alej said:

Yeah, it's like my body's whispering: 'You have this, this, this AND that to do... have a nap. Ignore everything'. Then I wake up 3 hours later and run around like a maniac.

And, yeah... I *wish* I could predict how I felt when I woke up - unfortunately not, though. All I know is that I GOTTA have my sleep. Without it, I am a cranky bitch.

Me too I feel bad, though cause I start going around all on people and it's not their fault

Alej said:

I don't EVER recall waking up in a cheerful mood. I'm pretty evil 1st thing I wake up, I could lash out on my own shadow

I hate that about myself.

i fail at taking naps. the last time i made an attempt, i ended up sleeping for 9 hours

i'm sorry but it just cracks me up visualizing that

I love naps but I usually wake up hungry or horny or both
I only feel bad if I've had something serious on my mind.

That's hot.

I love naps. Yesterday I napped between 2pm and 5pm, then watched some sport on TV and went to bed at 11pm. Got up at 3am to watch the golf, before sleeping again from 6am to 8am. Even with my nap I still would've slept through the night if I hadn't set my alarm to get up to watch the golf.

Normally I just 30 mins here and there, in the taxi or wherever. Once I'm somewhere with nice air-con I can pretty much sleep anytime.

Fauxie said:

I could never do that.

I have to sleep without interruptions. Otherwise I get up all

Alej said:

I'd say I probably take at least a short 30 minute nap during the daytime nearly every day. I don't like to sleep too much during the night as I usually like to be up by 6am.

Alej said:

Where has this thread been all my life?

When I was younger I'd wake up feeling really sad and disappointed with myself when I napped

Or even worse, in high school, I'd wake up just as the sun was setting and think it was time to go to school and get all groomed and dressed for no fucking reason one time I even went so far as to go out to my car to start it up to thaw before realizing some of my friends were playing football in a nearby field.


Naps suck arse.

What? It's coming up to 2pm here. I'm about to eat the chicken curry, gyoza and yakisoba we've had delivered and then take a nap while Mon watches 'According To Jim'.

Fauxie said:

Napping is extremely common in Thailand.

I think it's the damned heat.... and barking ass clans of dogs eating each other at night.

You don't even take a nap on Sundays?
