I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE sleeping.
I wish I could take a nap at work, I would be much more productive. We should have siestas like the Mexicans have.

Try napping in approx. 90 minute cycles or multiples thereof [1.5 hrs, 3 hrs, 4.5 hrs, etc] When you sleep, you go through cycles, each one that consists of a few stages of non-REM sleep followed by about three stages of REM sleep. If you are awakened before the completion of any one cycle, you'll feel tired and groggy.

I hate naps. I always feel groggy after them (if it's more than 20 mins), and the rest of the day is all blergh.

Given our faster metabolisms, you would think that would be the case but its often not.
