I like naps

I love napping too but it can't be too late in the day because then it will throw me off. I also love napping with my hubster. I think napping should be mandatory too. I heard that in Mexico they have siestas where everyone closes up shop at a certain time to take a nap. Is that true? We should adop that here. I feel so much better after a nap!

Don't know about in Mexico, but in Spain most things are closed from about 2pm to 6pm for siesta (businesses are open 9 to 2 and 6 to 9). It sucks, actually. If you don't want to take a four-hour nap, there is nothing you can do during that time, and you get home obscenely late from work (standard dinner time is 10pm).

I remember being in Kindergarten and the teacher telling us we HAD to have a nap after lunch, with a blanket on the floor. Oooooooooooooo how I fought that! Now I just wish my boss would come into my office after lunch and order me home for a nap! *sigh*

I would love to take a nap. Been up half the night nursing the worst toothache I've ever had in my life. Just waiting for my husband to wake up to drive me to the store and ask the pharmacist for the strongest painkillers they have, so I can make it to Monday to see a denist :unsure:

Try some clove oil.

Or wake up your husband! Toothaches are a total ######. You need some medicine, and now. I would not wait for him to wake himself up!

PS I also enjoy the occasional nap.

Having had a little look online, I think I already had the strongest painrelief that I can get over the counter. Also the nearest pharmacy wasn't open until 10am anyhow. :) I'm doing a little better now. Swishing a little mouthwash around my mouth from time, that seems to help numb my mouth a bit.

Thanks for the suggestion of Clove Oil, Jenn. I'd forgotten about that. I remember as a kid my parents had some and I hated the smell of it. But I'm desperate enough to try anything that might help take the edge off of the pain. :thumbs:

Oh, also I managed to take a little nap when the pain subsided. The nap was much enjoyed. :D

naps Rule, I used to be able to take a small nap after work before my other job since I was working only 30 hours per week, now i work 40 hours and still get up at the same time and go straight to my other job, so no nap.

Last monday I was falling asleep teaching the kids the letter M.

7-3-06 GREEN CARD ARRIVES IN MAIL!!!! Done for two years!!!!!!

I am here to help, even if it's just to offer my shoulder to cry or vent on... We are all in this together.!

My answers are based on personal experience, not fact.

We are on this rollercoaster ride together holding on for dear life.

Anyone see that Seinfeld ep where George made a bed under his desk at Yankee Stadium? He was napping, then Steinbrenner came into his office & was hanging out so George called Jerry to call in a bomb scare?

priceless :lol:

*SIGH* We love naps. Really. Just napping. :)

I have to admit, I do like the Spanish way of thinking....the Siesta. There are many days at school where we all wish we could have a nice two hour nap. Of course, that would make the school day much longer, but at least we wouldn't be so darned tired. :)
