The Art of Napping

It’s 2 am and it seems we’re not making it to Crobar tonight. Jenny’s tired from Irish Dance today, but really I think it’s because she took a late night nap and we need to get our acts together. Maybe plan a dinner before attempting a late night start. It’s the eating dinner and then taking a “power nap” that’s the real killer. Warner says the ideal nap is between 7 pm – 9 pm, and is before dinner. Once you’ve eaten dinner, you’re done. Your body figures its day is finished, and unless you have some pressing activity, it’s not waking up. I texted Warner, Cici, Sara, and Nico around 10 pm about Crobar. Cici said she and Will were taking it easy, Warner said they might try Crobar and would let me know later, and Sara later told me she was just getting back from seeing RENT and didn’t think she’d make it out. No word from Nico and I don’t hear from Leandro until almost 1 am; Warner responded a half -hour after that, once Jenny told me she was too tired. I’m tired too, I suppose. And you can’t really force going out. Besides, Leandro said his throat had bee hurting him; perhaps he was only planning on going out for our sake and we let him off the hook. Warner said they might still try to go to Crobar, but at this point, what’s the point?

Bummer though, because it would be our last chance to go out before Chile. We leave early Wednesday morning. I say we pack our bags and bring them to Rumi Gay Night on Tuesday and leave them at the coat check. It’s on the way to the airport…
