Napping

I hear napping is supposed to be good for you.

Yesterday, I read that people who nap about 30 minutes daily live longer than those who don't.  (I've always thought the Afternoon Siesta was very civilized).

I think naps are a wonderful thing.

The problem?

When I nap, I actually sleep. For Hours.  Even if I set an alarm, I ignore it.  Yesterday? I laid down reading around 9AM.  Next thing I knew? 2:09 PM.

It's not like I don't sleep during the week.  I'm pretty rigid about my bedtime and getting up time.  I get at least 7 hours a night. Usually 8.

But every once in a while, I'll just fall asleep and nap for hours.

Maybe I can count all my long naps as several short naps? 

In that case? I'm way ahead of the game.
