Naps Suck: AKA- Baby Comas

The other day at work we were all bitching about how tired we are. Frankly, I think once you're over the age of 25 you immediately become sleep deprived and all those years you spent partying and doing all nighter's studying suddenly come back to haunt you. Scott and I have started saying we have a "bad case of the mimis." To all my non-spanish speaking friends Mimis is Spanish word for sleepy. In the south they call it the "itis" ( I think it's a southern word, I don't know! I make up shit all the time).

Me: "Oh hey Mimis!"

Mimis: "SUP BITCH!"

Anyways, back to my story: We were talking about being tired. The the word Nap came up. I hate naps, I've always hated naps. Ask my mom! She would pick me up from day care and the teacher would complain that I didn't nap. 

BUT NAPS ARE AWESOME you say! They aren't and let me tell  you why. Naps to me are like baby comas. I fall asleep deep! I mean deep!

It's suggested that you go through 4 stages of sleep , the 4th being the deepest. When awakened from a 4th stage you may wake up all disoriented and screwed up. This is what happens to me. I wake up disoriented, confused, I can't really walk. I swear my naps are baby comas. So next time you see me yawn and you brazenly suggest I take a nap, please don't be offended when I flip you the bird.


If you want to know what I look like when I wake up from a nap, please see this video of a baby giraffe learning to walk.
