Just curious how many of you take naps. Personally, I love to take long naps whenever I can. On nights I don't swim I usually take a two hour nap when I get home from work. On days when I work from home I'll usually nap if I've got at least an hour of free time before I have to leave for the pool. This does cause me to miss workouts on occasion when I don't feel like getting up! I also like to take two hour naps in the afternoon on weekends when possible, even though I usually get eight hours of sleep or more on the weekend. As you might have guessed, I don't have any children!
I know some people rarely if ever nap and others prefer much shorter naps. How about you?

I find that it's hard to fall asleep at night with a TV on, but it's equally hard to fall asleep for a nap with the TV off. The best weekend nap inducing is golf, because the voices are soothing. The best weekday nap inducing fare is CNBC market coverage, because those guys do know how to drone on!

Man, same phenomenon here: I hate the tv on at night but it's required for napping. And yes, golf is basically telecast benadryl. Those with hi-def cable, check out the show "Sunrise Earth." It induces major weekend narcolepsy. It was on the demo TVs at Best Buy recently, and I almost went down right on the linoleum.
