Coffee Nap

20 minutes of glory

Welcome to our good friend Grizzly Adams, who put together this piece that we had to share with the TND fam!


After a long day of work and an upcoming evening of meetings and more work, I was very, very tired and contemplating a coffee. But what’s better than a coffee? A coffee nap (a.k.a. nappuccino)! Ground the beans, poured the water, and walked the dog while that delicious black water brewed. Downed the sweet treat over some infinite scrolling, then climbed into bed with the dog close behind.

Alarm set for 25 minutes; 5 minutes to fall asleep, 20 to dream. Was just about to drift away when my faithful pooch started snoring. Crap. Will I fall asleep? What if the coffee kicks in? What if he doesn’t stop snoring? What if…shut up brain and go back to sleep.

Woke up refreshed as could be about a minute before the alarm went off. Was very pleased with this perfectly executed coffee nap.
