As is true for the majority of people that I know, I really like sleep. This should not be a surprise for anyone. It’s generally considered to be an essential function for bodily maintenance, and the feeling of refreshment after a good sleep is absolutely amazing.

While this can lead to my being tired quite often, I really don’t like naps that much. While they feel great, and I feel awesome after a nice short nap, it usually delays the sleep even further. A one hour nap can take away 3-4 hours of sleep. That, I don’t really like much at all…
