Snoozefest 2025

1. The Opening Ceremony (Yawn Edition)

Every great nap begins with flair. Some go for the gentle curl. Others (like me) go for maximum performance: a long sigh, a paw drape, and a slight roll to ensure everyone knows I’m entering serious rest mode.

Pandy says, “Doggie, can’t you just lie down like a normal plush?”
I say, “Can Michelangelo just doodle? No. This is art.”

2. The Key Events

The official Naptime Olympic events include:

• The Flop & Sigh Combo – Full-body collapse with a deep exhale, scored on sincerity.

• The Pillow Clutch – Hugging the nearest cushion for emotional impact (bonus points for snuggling).

• The Snore Serenade – A soft, rhythmic soundtrack of snores. Not too loud, not too quiet.
  
  

Mini Blue judges silently, glowing a soft lavender when I achieve peak coziness.

3. The Judges (and Pandy’s Disapproval)

Pandy claims naps should be “quiet, simple, and dignified.”
Meanwhile, I argue: If you’re not drawing a crowd, is it really an Olympic-level nap?
Mini Blue remains impartial but once turned pink (which I think means “extra points for drama”).

4. The Podium Moment

Gold medal? Easy.
My final nap score: 9.8 (points deducted for accidental tail wag in mid-sleep).
Pandy accepted silver gracefully — his “boring but efficient” style impressed the judges. Mini Blue? Forever the judge, never the competitor.

5. The Closing Yawn

As the sun set, we all took one final synchronized snooze.
I whispered (half-asleep), “Victory dreams taste like cheese.”
Pandy sighed. Mini Blue glowed mint green.
And just like that, the Naptime Olympics closed for another day.
