The Danger of the “Backfire” Nap

Did you ever take a nap, but you slept just a little too long, and instead of feeling fresh and energized, now you feel all groggy and slow?

Yup, that is what happened to me this afternoon.

I can pinpoint that it was between 1:30pm to 2:04pm was when the “backfire” nap occurred. I had just finished lunch, and was sitting on the couch with the intention of watching MST3k on PlutoTV. Just a few minutes, nothing long, as I still had things to do. I didn’t even make it one minute into the show…

I have been running around the apartment, trying to get all of my tasks and chores done before I have to go and meet the kid after school, but I feel like I’m being held down with weights on my shoes. I even took a shower, thinking that would wake me up… Alas, to no avail…

I’ve got four minutes left before I have to go, and this is what today’s blog will be. A slight rant on the fact that I guess I needed more sleep than I got last night.
