Napping

Many days, my first thought upon waking up is, "When can I take a nap today?" Now once I get going I'm usually fine, and I usually don't have time during the day to take a nap, but sometimes that moment in the morning of thinking of future sleep enables me to get up. Naps can be very refreshing. I used to always take a Sunday nap, but alas, even my Sundays here of late are too busy for napping it seems. But once in awhile, when I do get to lie down for a bit and take a nap--well, it's a wonderful, wonderful thing! I love sleep! I think everything should shut down for an hour or so in the afternoon so everyone can take a nap. (I think countries that do this have the right idea).

Talking about napping makes me think of the Seinfeld episode where George is so tired at work and has his desk modified so he can take a nap under it every day. That always makes me smile.
