Why this word is great
CLINOMANIA — [Noun] An excessive desire to remain in bed; morbid sleepiness. From the Greek klino- ("bed") and -mania ("obsession"). Unlike "dysania" (which describes the struggle to rise) or "clinophilia" (which suggests a benign fondness for reclining), clinomania is the compulsive pull of the horizontal, the body’s surrender to gravity as a form of resistance. It is the weight of winter mornings pressing down on the eyelids, the slow seep of daylight through drawn curtains, the way a mattress molds itself around a body that no longer wishes to be separate from it—a quiet rebellion against the tyranny of uprightness.
