Apparently I value sleep over food. Well, not really.
But I've discovered an equally valuable use of my lunch break:
Car-naps. They are seriously the best thing ever and I don't know why I never did it before!
Around 11am I head out to Lola and drive across the parking lot to park under the furthest tree with shade. Then I recline my seat all the way back, kick off my shoes, and drift off into deep REM (like the sleep cycle, not the band) for a solid 50 minutes. But not before setting my "Lunchtime nap" alarm on my phone for 11:55am.
It. Is. Glorious. I wake up from my car-nap feeling refreshed and ready to take on the second half of my day. I'm considering keeping a pillow and blanket in the back seat to make my car-nap experience even more enjoyable.
If you've never tried this I highly encourage you to take up the practice. Just remember, distance is key. Nothing would ruin your refreshing car-nap better than waking up to one of your concerned co-workers peering through your driver-side window, trying to decide if you're dead or not.
Not that that happened or anything.
So anyways, you should like, totally go take a car-nap.
Much love to ya,
This sounds like a fantastic idea. Too bad I only have 30 mins for lunch and I have to park a good 5 minute walk away. Boooo.
ReplyDeletethis is the greatest idea ever! way better than my lunch time walk i just did.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could take naps but they make me even more tired then before. I have no grey area. Either stay awake or go into a mini coma.
ReplyDeletehaha i could never but i wish i could!

Picturing a coworker creepin' through my car window is priceless...so many of my annoying male coworkers would do that to me!
