I just got back from Springfield this evening. It feels so nice to be back in Des Moines. "Home is where your heart is" is very true. My heart (Matt) is here in Des Moines, so that is where I call home. :)
Anyway, I have a question to ponder at the moment. After unpacking, I decided I wanted to rest my eyes of a long day of driving. I finally woke up again at 9:57 thinking it was much earlier. So what if it later in the night, it still qualifies as a nap, right?
Eryn just calls me ridiculous, because she knows me so well. She told me yesterday that she knew I was looking forward to my 9:00 p.m. naps. Little did she know I'd take advantage of that right when I got home.
I always thought a nap qualified as such because it was a small length of time. I don't think it matters what time this nap begins or ends, does it?
According to dictionary.com, to nap is to:
v: to sleep for a short time; doze.
I only found one definition that involved a certain time of day, and it referred to a baby getting his nap in for the day. I do not fall into that category.
My verdict, it is 100% acceptable to take late-night naps. Especially if you are not ready to commit to the act of sleeping, but would like rest during the night. A perfection solution.
These are important topics I worry about at 10 p.m., right after waking from my nightly nap.
