The National Sleep Foundation is extolling the benefits of napping!
"Naps can restore alertness, enhance performance, and reduce mistakes and accidents. A study at NASA on sleepy military pilots andastronauts found that a 40-minute nap improved performance by 34% and alertness 100%."
Finally some NASA research that is directly applicable to my life!

Ack. I canNOT nap! It completely wastes me. I always resent Mark--he can lie down and sleep immediately for 15 minutes and be fine. If I did that, I'd be a zombie until bedtime. I have some bad rhythm that makes me cash out around 4:00 when I really need the most energy, but if I napped at 3:00 or something, I'd be hopeless the rest of the night! It's better for me to just stick it out and go to bed early--or at least on time!
