the difference between napping and sleeping

i looked it up and napping is to sleep lightly or briefly, and sleeping is the state of being asleep. a few of the resources also state that sleeping is several hours, and that napping is usually during the day.  so what is it if it's several hours of solid sleep in the evening?

after a week of non-sleeping, and a truly fun but exhausting weekend, i was tuckered out. i came home from work, sat down with the latest sunset magazine, and then the next thing i knew, randall was eating a late dinner, and telling me that i'd been sleeping too long to be napping.

so was i napping or sleeping? you tell me.
