    I read a lot and sometimes I just fall asleep over my book. I guess that counts as naps. But I shouldn't, really, because it always gives me a headache and makes me feel slightly nauseous. Which is stupid because if it happens, I'm usually in bed. I sleep there all night so why doesn' that make me feel bad, then?

    My girl likes to nap much more than I do. The other thing is I dont sleep very much at night, so occasionally I need a quick nap, even just 5 min

    Whenever possible. In fact if I sit still long enough the nap monster sneaks up behind me an chloroforms me.

    I used to not take naps, but lately I do on my days off from work.

    i am SUCH a napper!! my body is so used to it, i just lie down in the afternoon and go right to sleep for exactly one hour. without my nap i get cranky. and if there are other people around, i insist THEY nap too! as if having a friend over is going to make me miss my nap.

    i love a nap, but it must be on the sofa, i can't nap in bed unless i'm ill, but just put me on the sofa with some lame daytime tv (murder she wrote or similar) and its bliss just to nod off for a couple of hours

    most definitely! After working til 2 am, sometimes later (6 am) this morning... and always getting up by 9 or 10, I usually have an hour or 2 nap around 4 or so

    I'm a lazy b*stard, and part of being a lazy b*stard is taking a nap. :D

    I wish I could. If I take a nap it ends up being two hours of my day down the tubes. If I could do a ten or twenty minute power nap and be ok, then I definitely would.

    My body just doesn't nap. I think my mom told me even when I was a baby I wasn't big on naps. But I'm starting to now, just because my work schedule is so weird. There are days I work from 7:00a-12:30p, so I come home and have lunch, nap, go to the gym, have dinner, then go back to work from about 5:30p-11:00p. If I don't nap, I just can't get through my day.

    Not unless I'm sick. If I nap on a normal day, I'll have a hard time falling asleep later that night.

    guilty. anytime I have a day off, I have an afternoon nap, and some days that I don't have off. I just love getting all cozy in bed. It's annoying sometimes because I fall asleep so easily that I do it sometimes when I don't mean to.

    I have to have a nap every day. In fact, I plan my college schedule to allow time for afternoon naps (1.5 hours) in between classes!

    Used to be. Daily 2-3 hrs, but I was always exhausted. Since cleaning up what I eat and starting to work out, I'm just not tired anymore. Which is a huge accomplishment for me!

    I used to take naps when I stayed at home with my kids when they were toddlers. It was kind of nice. Now I have tried every once in a while if I am really beat, but I can not shut my mind off to do it....I think about what I should be or could be getting done if I was not laying down....so I end up getting up and forgetting the nap.

    I loooooove naps. I'm trying to break the habit of napping in the afternoon now and instead use that time to ride an exercise bike
