I think the latter. I hate taking naps, and I doubt I will get any sleep time this weekend.

I love naps. My circadian rhythm is pretty screwed up, so I sleep when I can.

I love naps they make me feel refreshed. All tho I tend to feel guilty if my nap is to long because I feel like I slept the day away and didn't get things accomplished.

Naps are for some people "Heaven in the afternoon"
and for others "Wasteful"

I don't like them, but I don't dislike them either.

I tend to fall asleep randomly on the couch in the afternoons sometimes. That's what happens when you wake up every morning at 7am and aren't used to that sleep schedule. xD

Sometimes when I wake up I have the "head feeling like lead" thing, but sometimes I feel more refreshed. I guess it depends on what kind of sleep I get while I'm taking that nap, although I can't really control that. I'm pretty tired now, but I can't fall asleep yet.

I usually end up sleeping too long if I take a nap and then it messes up what little sleeping pattern I do have. I'm a night owl, so if I am not tired I will probably just not go to bed if I nap. When I was sick, though, I slept a lot during the day and all night thanks to the Oxy.

I think nap breath always smells the worst, for some reason. And if you take a nap at the wrong hour of the day, your night sleep cycle gets pushed back like two to three hours. Regardless, naps do feel good!

Unless you count falling asleep during stats, I don't really nap. I don't wake up well; I can only deal with morning once a day.

I rarely nap. I don't like to nap mainly because it throws my sleep schedule off & I won't be able to fall asleep at night. If I take a nap, I usually have that "head feels like it's full of lead" thing & like Hillary said, I feel guilty because I could have been doing other things instead of napping. But I heard it's good to take a 20 minute nap everyday. shrug.gif

I wake up earlier than I'm used to now that I'm in school, but I took a nap yesterday in the library of my school, because my class was cancelled and I had like 1:20 to kill.

and it felt good. I woke up feeling refreshed.

I take naps as often as I can. On a nonactive day, I'll take several in one day.

Gotta get that shit done before it gets too late, otherwise it becomes going to bed. I do like naps though, passes time during the day and let's me stay up til 4-5 am, and wake up between 7-8 am.

I read about a company once that had a built-in "Nap Room" where employees could go take 30 minute naps in the afternoon. They had this study that proved their employees were much more productive if they got an afternoon snooze.

Needless to say, I'll apply if I can remember where!

I'm a firm advocate of power naps, and the general concept of grabbing short amounts of sleep when you can, rather than one long sleep at night. I've got pretty good at being able to fall asleep whereever I am recently. It's one of my amazing super powers.

lol

I wish I were a better napper. I got about 3.5 hours of sleep last night and hit my caffeine low on the bus ride home because it was too difficult to keep the caffeine flowing while being tossed around on the bus. I don't think I got much sleep last night either, so I should nap, but it won't happen.

I took a nap today.

That's just because I was totally exhausted.

I ran 7.5 miles this morning, swam 2 and worked out at the gym. (I know, I have something wrong with me)

I've never done anything like that before :/

When I was young I thought naps were silly. At the time, I had a family friend who was a few years older and she was taking a lot of naps and I never understood.
Once I hit university, I understood, haha. I take them every once in awhile because of exhaustion, but I rarely have time to. pinch.gif
