Cat Nap


I was reading this months issue of Wired magazine and I finally found something in there that I could put to immediate use. They had a little mini blurb on how to take the perfect cat nap. Now I love to nap and Lord knows I usually stay up too late doing stupid stuff so I decided to put their little perfect cat nap to the test this afternoon.
The method: Drink a cup of coffee right before you go to lay down and relax. Evidently it takes 15-20 minutes for the caffeine to work it's way through your system. Next lay down and close your eyes for only fifteen minutes and relax. By the time you get back up the caffeine should be going through your system and you should be nice and refreshed.
The Results: Surprisingly good. I was exhausted this morning after meeting someone last night for coffee and having about eight cups. Add to that the dog going into freak out mode last night and waking me up every two hours going crazy barking and that does not make for a happy VinnieG at six in the morning. The fifteen minute break really refreshed me to the point that I wasn't a total dick for the remainder of the day at work. I'm lovin me some of that fifteen minute cat nap.

most people have never understood my 30 minute naps. "Oh, I need at least 2 hours, blah blah blah". Your new discovery sounds perfect. Get the rest, and get re-wired immediately. What's not to love with that?

Nifty...I'm gonna try it. Of course, I sleep like the dead, so perhaps I should do a cappucino? lol
