The Caffeine Nap

I read about this concept in a magazine somewhere, or maybe an online article? Some type of feature on MSN or Yahoo!. Why do they need the exclamation point in their name? We don’t call it GoogleTMing.  Anyway…

The idea is that if you drink a cup of coffee and then take a 15-25 min nap; you will wake up energized and refreshed. It was a tip intended for college students, but my life isn’t that far off of a stressed and restless college kid. So I tried it tonight.  I was going to drink the cup of coffee and plug away on some projects I had tonight, but I figured what the heck, let’s try the caffeine nap.

If one cup is good, two cups must be better and if coffee works, than espresso has got to do really bump up the effectiveness. So I drank two cups of espresso (or whatever you want to call the juice that comes out of a Senseo) and hit the sleep timer on my alarm clock.

I’ve never used the sleep timer, apparently it doesn’t work as intended. I just woke up an hour and a half later with a bad headache, acid indigestion and 6 hours left until I have to go back to work.
