This is me. Once I'm down, I'm down for the count.

I set up a slack line in my living room on Saturday night and busted my arse…I’m feeling like an old man today.

I find it nearly impossible to take naps. I’m 38.

I might take 3 or 4 naps per year.

Yep, if I can't sleep at least 2hrs I won't even bother. I just don't feel tired during the day most of the time either.

In my 40s I learned schedule a recovery day of vacation after big events.

I always take the day off after I get back from vacation or some sort of trip/event. Even just a weekend long trip

I'm 30 and I never ever nap. Even when hungover/sick and I really try hard to nap and I still can't get it done.

But yeah I'm almost at the point where if I am invited to something I'll go but if it plans fall through, I'll give a fist pump.

The struggle is real. I’m 47. On mondays when I get to the office and hear what everyone did over the weekend I get exhausted.

A padna went and rode his bike for 60 miles for FUN Saturday.

Nah. I’ll catch you on the flip flop

Same here


Along that same line, I prefer to return home from a week's vacation on Saturday. Hate getting in Sunday nights, scrambling to get everything together and ready to hit the ground running early Monday morning.

I work midnights and go to bed at 0530. Rarely get 6 hrs of sleep. About once a week or so I catch a combat nap in the recliner before work.

I remember Col. Rhodes of Marine Air Group 16 gathering us all together on the deck of the USS Okinawa right before Desert Storm kicked off. We thought we were going to get a "Win one for the Gipper" motivational speech. A helo pilot in Vietnam, his words of wisdom - "Eat when you can. Sleep when you can. Take a shite when you can." Thusly prepared, we flew our missions.

Lately when napping I've been sorta lucid dreaming. I'm dreaming, but I'm slightly awake. It's weird and doesn't happen every time I nap. A couple hours. The last time I swore I had control over what I did. It's better than tv!
