Berlin power-nap

When you've been partying hard and had very little sleep and you know you have to go out and do it all again the next evening, so you have a quick nap before hitting the booze again. So called because of the 24/7 party scene in Berlin which leaves very little time for sleep.
"Man, I feel like shit - I think I'm gonna have to have a Berlin power-nap before I go out again tonight"

Power Nap 

1. The act of getting what is essentially getting a nights sleep in a fraction of the time.

2. An afternoon nap to keep you up later that night.
"Whew, had to power nap last night. Exams = pwning me."

Mini power nap 

Feeling refreshed or charged after closing eyes for 1 to 10 minutes. Over 10 minutes becomes a full nap. Some have even associated "visions" or "dreams" during a mini power nap.

power-nap 

An revitalizing, re-energizing, refreshing short, but powerful sleep, usually mid-day, which is especially good for those times when one still has lots of work to do, is very tired, and has only 20 minutes in which to get back their productive power.
