napcommitment

/ˈnæpkəˌmɪtmənt/nounVerified New

Also in: Nickerchenfalle (Deutsch) · siestecompromiso (Español) · siestengage (Français)

The moment "resting my eyes" becomes an actual nap — the point of no return, crossed without a ceremony.

Napcommitment is the decision the body makes while the mind is still negotiating. It is marked by the blanket reaching the chin, the phone going face-down, and the last coherent thought being about the alarm. After the commitment, the nap is sovereign, and the plans are foreign policy.

Etym. — nap + commitment — the decision metaphor for the nap's point of no return; a commitment is exactly the crossing after which withdrawal is costly.

Rel. — napambush · napembassy
