Alice: I want a pink nap mat, with flowers all over it. Mom: We'll see. Alice: That one! It's just what I want! Mom: "The NAPMASTER 3000. The ultimate expression of advanced naptime technology! 8000 thread count quadruple-ply cotton guarantees extreme comfibility for the discerning preschooler!" Alice: Put it down and I'll try it! Whoa. It's so soft. Mom: Okay, get off it, Alice. Alice: Yikes! Mom: No extreme comfibility for my discerning preschooler. Alice: I want a blue mat with ducks all over it.

Alice was almost eaten by the nap mat!

Drowning in 8000 thread-count delight! Extreme “comfibility” (is that a word?). Sensory overload for Alice: go, blue!

Every time that I sleep on something it also has to have extreme comfibility.

I wouldn’t mind meeting my doom in something that soft too, too much…
GROG Premium Member over 14 years ago
I guess there’s such a thing as too much comfibility.

Er, am I the only one who remembers dirty, smelly mats?

My nap mat in Mrs. Rayfath’s kindergarten class in 1966 was dark green.
Hillbillyman over 14 years ago
We never had nap mats..we just layed our heads down on desk useing arms as pillows.
cdward over 14 years ago
Mine, also 1966, was green plastic and folded rather than rolled.

I’ve decided to start sleeping on the floor. I fell out of bed while having a dream and decided I’d prefer to be closer to the ground when it happens again.(If it happens again)

I totally want to work at Drowsy’s.
I believe the first Drowsy’s was founded by Jebediah Drowsy in 1890, the young entrepreneur recognizing the lack of nap support during the industrial revolution. The name is just an ironic coincidence.

She should try the round black ones made by Acme.
MisterFweem over 14 years ago
Yeah, I was part of the towel brigade in kindergarten. Somehow, though, I don’t see a store like Drowsy’s surviving in today’s economy. Especially if we keep babbling about towels here.

@andymeijers, Wile E. Coyote does not recommend. Too many instances of trucks plowing right out of them. Not a real “drowsy” moment.
