Answers:
Oh, good for you for being careful with your eyes! Multi-purpose solution is basically interchangeable with normal saline. For "optimal" cleaning you should soak them in multi-purpose solution for 6-8 hours but that is only to get the best disinfection. It will be perfectly fine to put them back in a contact case in either saline or multi-purpose solution for a couple of hours while you nap. The multi-purpose solution cannot damage your eyes. It in old days..(my early days of contact lens wearing) there was a "disinfecting" solution with a bright red cap that COULD burn your eyes if you did not soak it for the total time in buffer solution...but I am pretty sure that is obsolete now. Those solutions should say multiple places "do not place in eye" or "must use buffer solution" on the bottles. Saline solution is just fine for a quick soak during a nap too,it just doesn't clean them good for long term.
yes, you'll get sleepy A LOT. It's safer to take them out now and put them back on later just in case your eye gets irritated while you're out if you leave them on until then. The 6 hour thing is more for after you've wore your contacts the whole day. But really, you should be fine with whatever you do. It's not like if you wear them for 9 hours today your eye will get swollen or your contacts will break for not hydrating them enough.
Okay, so I wear contacts and have been wearing them for about two years. I don't quite understand your question, but I sleep with my contacts all the time( not that you should) if you wanna take them off, go for it. you can take them off and put them on later. But always replace the solution. Just put them back in when you wake up. No big deal.(:
