Nap Accidents
I was heading down 44 in Missouri on my way to Kraft in Springfield. I was about 80 miles away and coming up to the Road Ranger at the 163 exit. I was starting to get a little drowsy and decided to take a quick nap when I stop to get my smokes.
I pull in and park across from the entrance to the cat scale. I set my brakes, dim the lights and kick back for my nap (I take my naps in the seat. If I don't my 30 min nap turns into a 4 hr nap). After about 20 min, at which point I am nappen' pretty hard I get this feeling in my body so my eyes open. I screamed holy $h!t, grabbed the wheel and nailed on the brakes. I just had a close encounter with the cat scale parked 50 feet away.
Realized what was going on I fell back to sleep to finish my nap. Well, 10 minutes later I get that same feeling, open my eyes and scream holy $h!t, grabbed the wheel and nailed the brakes once again. That's two nap accidents with the cat scale in one nap period. I am really glad I decided to take one. And I wasn't even very tired.
I also had one when I was in the sleeper but I don't remember what happened. I wish I could because that one would be hilarious.
Anyone else want to share their nap accidents? I look back on them and find them very amusing.
