Umm, when one decides to nap, one needs to have the willpower to get up when the nap is over. As it is, after a three hour "nap", I think I'm just going to face facts that I won't be going back to sleep anytime soon after my long phone conversation with the 'rents.

ahh well, these things happen.

Heh. Welcome to my world! LOL. I usually grab a "nap" in the daytime that lasts from 1-3 hours. At least, I used to call these naps. I was informed by A (who has just had to learn to live with this behavior on my part) that these are not naps, they're "going back to bed." Well, hell, I don't sleep enough at night now that I've stopped the Ambien, so WTF? I mean here I am at 12:15am wide awake as usual... Gotta make up for it some time...

But we got to talk, so maybe something good came out of it, right? :P

Uggh, I'm sorry.

Ah, I've been this way all my life. My mother says newborns are supposed to sleep 20 hours a day, and I was awake for 12 hour stretches from the very start. My poor mom. LOL! My doctor actually told me I was just "like this," which is doctor-speak for "you have a sleep disorder to go along with all your other many eccentricities of the brain, and we can medicate you or you can live with it." :P:P

I generally don't have much of an issue w/ sleep unless I'm stressed out or too hot. Well, except the two days a month when my body demands 14 hrs of sleep if I'm not going to go ballistic on anyone ;)

It's good you don't generally have a problem sleeping. And I think I know exactly which 2 days you mean. ;)

It's just extended power naps :) Tell A he'd be much less happy if you DIDN'T get the extra bits of sleep!

Indeed. I think A knows this. From experience. Heh.
