The Comfy Corner

Napping is one of the most frustrating things for me. I have 8am classes four days out of the week so I take regular naps during the day, but very rarely are they actually refreshingly perfect. i.e. On a scale of Khloe to Kim they're usually a Khloe. Here are some of my criteria for the perfect nap.

1) Must be under an hour - in my experience, if I sleep half an hour, I wake up refreshed and feeling like a million bucks. If I sleep an hour or more, I feel like Meryl Streep after she fell down the stairs in "Death Becomes Her."

2) Must be dark and quiet - too often have I tried to nap in the living room and just pass out while the television is on with my face buried in a pillow, but the television always infiltrates my dreams and some loud commercial always wakes me up and I get frustrated.

3) I MUST pee beforehand - this is hands down the most important criterion for a good nap. I have a bladder the size a needle head and if I don't pee before I nap, then I always, without fail, wake up like 10 minutes in, having to pee. And then I pee and can't get back to sleep.

4) Must be comfy - I go all out comfy corner at nap time. Sweatpants, sweatshirt (with the hood on) plethora of big pillows, blankets. I basically make a cocoon. (if you read "cocoon" backwards it kinda reads "nooooo" ... lolz)

5) I can't be hungry- basically for the same reason I have to pee beforehand. My stomach growling always wakes me up from my nap.
