#918 When you’re really tired and about to fall asleep and someone throws a blanket on you

Hey, you know what’s even better than taking a nap on the couch? Well, I’ll tell you: that feeling you get just before you fall asleep on the couch.

Yes, that’s when you enter that blissful, semi-conscious Pre-Nap World where your thoughts float and zoom around your brain and your muscles relax and detensify. The sun feels warm on your face, the radio on in the background fades to a comforting white noise, and you know… you just know… that you’re about to fall asleep.

It feels great.

There are really only two things that can disturb you when you’re in the Pre-Nap World:

  1. Feeling like you have to go to the bathroom. Sorry, but unless you trust your bladder to balloon without bursting, you might just have to get up for this one. Nobody can really help you go to the bathroom while you’re laying on the couch, unless they really, really love you.
  2. Feeling cold. You get those ol’ laying-on-the-couch shivers. You know your sheets and blankets are back on your bed, and you could just get up to get them, but you don’t really want to move because then you’ll leave the blissful Pre-Nap World. And it’s a nice world. That’s a world you don’t leave lightly.

So that’s why it’s great whenever someone notices your dilemma and just quietly grabs a blanket from the closet and tosses it on your semi-conscious self. If they’re really nice, they even flap the blanket above you and let it open up and softly land on you.

When that happens you immediately feel the warmth radiating around you, a tiny smile curls itself on the corners of your lips, and you fall deeper and deeper into a nice, relaxing rest.

AWESOME!

  1. Nothing like a nap I understand that studies say they are so good for you. Yippeeee love them. If we had nap time at work everyday imagine the productivity after. To be noticed and covered in a blanket wow this is the icing on the cake. Truly awesome. Thx

  2. I experienced this this morning. I was hungover, cold, and tired and was lying on the couch. My girlfriend was about to go somewhere and before she left she got me a blanket. She brought me my big blue warm comfy fleece blanket which is my favorite. She unfolded the blanket and opened it up then covered me up with it. It was one of the nicest and most caring things any woman has done for me.

  3. Oh my, that is such a heavenly feeling. Getting a blanket when you are about to nap and have been thinking of getting up to get that blanket.
