Once in a while, and I do feel like taking a nap fairly often, but I always pay for it at my regular bedtime. Never again.

I don't usually get a lot of sleep at night, so every now and then a nap is great, though I usually just pass out from exhaustion, so I don't really plan a nap. I think short naps (about an hour or two) are a great thing to have...and now I feel old.

I always used to think naps were for babies and old people. Then I went to university, and realized how great it was to be able to have quick naps in and around studying and papers.

That's exactly how it is for me, glad someone else is on the same page as me :P

Nah, I usually can't take naps. I have a hard time sleeping just in general.

I never take naps intentionally. I always wake up covered in sweat for some reason when I do. :x

Nope, and if I did my door would most certainly be locked:P

Having had roommates I completely understand (and I kept my door locked knowing what they liked to do at night). I also get that taste in my mouth - kind of like morning breath, but not quite as strong.

I occasionally nap for an hour or two during the school term, but stay up later as a result. It balances out :D

nope.. hardly ever. It just screws up with my sleeping pattern. Only people who should take naps are infants and maybe really old people. Anything longer than a 20 minute nap will just screw with your head.

Nope. I lay down on the couch and watch tv for a while just to rest, but I never actually nap.

Nope, never seem to have the time for those. Plus I'd hate to mess up my bedtime schedule.

I'd probably fail if I tried, sleep at night already is an issue...

All the time. Staring at the computer screen at work all day really tired me out, so everyday after lunch I give myself half an hour long of shut eyes

That happens to me as well and I have no idea why its only when i take naps. It almost makes the nap worth not having because that first minute when I wake up is the worst.

I usually end up taking one and regret it because it ruins my whole day. Plus, it screws up my sleeping schedule.

I recommended this to my boss the other day. Even showed him some studies that suggested it increased productivity.

He was not amused.
