Man, I've never been a napper, unless I REALLY need it. Maybe twice in college, and then when I've been pretty sick, but other than that, I'm just awake. I enjoy a nice rest, though.
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've discovered the 20 minute zone out snaps me out of a bad mood, mostly. It has to be on a bed, and it looks like a nap, but it never quite gets to sleep. I just get so heavy it feels like I'm weighted to the bed and I get all relaxed. The only thing is, if something startles me, it really knocks me into hyperaware. The cat meows and I am Really AWAKE.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I nap in front of the TV all the time. Mutant X is especially good for that.

Yeah, that's about as far as I ever go, nap-wise. That's how I knew I was sick when I had that not-quite-the-flu thing -- I kept falling asleep in the middle of the day!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Have women here experienced making eye contact as a better preventative measure than not? Does not looking the weird guy in the eye encourage him to come in closer?
I don't tend to walk down the street looking people in the eye, but if someone says something to me that I don't like then looking them in the eye is going to be more preventative than anything I could say. It seems that If I'm angry, my eyes become quite the deterrent to further provocation. I once had a boss scamper away and avoid me after I shot him "the look."

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Napping usually makes me feel worse than before. I have yet to figure out the magic formula that results in it actually helping.

you gotta COMMIT. None of this bullshit lounging in a chair or lying on a couch with your feet hanging off of the end. Take off your clothes, get in bed, set the alarm. I find that the 2 hour nap is perfect.
