The Power Nap

Sometimes it is the power nap that gets me through.  It is 20 after midnight and I just got into this.  I am actually feeling pretty good.  You see, I've been plugging in numbers, handling accounting needs for the LBH and it puts me to sleep.  I really have a hard time sitting and working on the computer.  Especially when it comes to numbers.  Sheesh.  So I try and try to fight it but it usually doesn't go so well.  I have been at this for hours today.  I stopped twice and had little power naps - just sitting in the chair at the desk and sleeping for a few.  Amazing.  After a short nap I am up and awake, ready to go.  For those who know James Gregory, that last line was written exactly the way the funniest man in America delivers it - the "up and awake, ready to go" part anyway.  Remember to hold the r in ready for a bit when you read it.  Love me some James Gregory. 

I imagine that I probably have a solid 5 hours of accounting to do still but I am thinking a slightly longer nap is in order before I dive into it.  I built a few reports that need to be populated and it is a bit tedious but once I've got each day entered it will allow us to look at daily performance, hourly performance, sandwich performance and a break down of other key performance factors.  We are one quarter into it and I am pleased with the progress we are making.  It has given me a better feel for what to look at as I am not a food guy.  It was hard to guess in the beginning but would have made things a little easier today if I had a model to follow in the beginning.   

Sorry for this most boring blog post.  I guess I just thought the power of a power nap was pretty fantastic and that I should throw my support behind it.  Perhaps it is because I love to sleep and have some pretty incredible talents in that regard.  I power nap behind the wheel on a long drive all the time.  I mean, that's what rumble strips are for right?
