Nap Porn

This weekend a friend made the comment about how late he had slept in on Saturday to which I asked, "How was it?" His response, "Shut-up Ms.I Wake Up With A Kid At 6 AM!" From there I felt I had to explain that no, I'm not mad at you for getting sleep (well maybe a little) but I'm mostly just wanting to vicariously live through people that still can sleep the day away. 

I want to know all the dirty details. Where did you do it? Couch? Bed? Floor? The rare and dangerous hammock? Somewhere sweet like a boat? Was it during the middle of the day? Did you plan it? Did you get a snack in the middle? Was it alcohol induced? Were you alone? 

So basically, I'm really into your verbal nap porn. It's hot.

Childless people of the internets: Embrace your nap ability now! 

Have an entire day of nothing ahead of you but feel bad wasting it with sleep? Don't. Just do it. Put on some sweat pants. Netflix for an hour or two. Read a book. And then sleep your ass off. Sleep until you need to eat. And then sleep some more. 

Sadly, no, you cannot bank the sleep for the sleepless times to come. Trust me though, when you are on feeding number three of a night with a newborn or cuddling a sick kid until early hours or arguing with a toddler about the fact that 3am is not playtime and he does not want to "go out there", you will remember your nap binges and be so thankful you did it when you could. 

And you too, will love to hear about your friends' nap porn.
