I fantasize about a biological quirk where I don’t need sleep, or maybe just need an hour a day to feel completely rested. This would give me time to do all the things I never have time for. . . like watching all these new TV series’ on Netflix/Showtime/HBO.

Pretty sure fish sleep to dream.

ETA - Warning possible pun overload.

I’ve just awoken from my post lunch nap, refreshed and ready to take on the World, maybe even the Universe.

My post lunch nap today went an hour into overtime (thank you BBQ ribs). Living close to work has its perks.

I just moved close to work about a month ago. Being able to walk home for lunch is really nice.

In the past I had an office with a door and kept a blanket, pillow and yoga mat for naps. Also, at another time when I worked in an open space office I put a nice mattress in the back of the Honda Element I had at the time for naps.

I like mid day naps as much as I hate going to sleep at night.
