somebody care to explain this idiom? i can't make sense of this.

i got it. it's hard at first because i understand wink as closing one eye for a second. so it doesn't make any sense since nap/sleep require both eyes to be closed.

Language doesn't always follow any obvious logic. Anyhow, Tdol posted a link to an explanation. (Don't worry. Be happy.)
 
How about taking three sleeping pills?
