    That's a good idea, unplugging and disconnecting for awhile. I'm so freaking addicted to my smartphone. I'm going to try going unplugged for a long afternoon this weekend, taking a nap, then walking to one of the lakes near my apartment alone with my thoughts. I'm sure I'll love it.

    Honestly? REALLY good sex.

    And I'm talking REALLLLLLY good sex. I wanna get TURNED OUT. By the time I'm done, I'm just in a state of relaxed euphoria. Then I want a post-coital snack.

    YES! Like heart-pounding, sweaty, short of breath, lying on your back afterwards with nothing but fuzzys in your brain sex.

    I LOVE to read (I've read over 10k pages so far this year!). And don't laugh, but sometimes I color when I'm really stressed out. Yes, I'm a 5 year old at heart :laugh:

    I have a shelf on my bookcase about halfway full of coloring books. :flowerforyou:
    The sad part is I make photocopies of them so the books stay nice and I can recolor the pics I like the best. Lol

    Hot bath and a good book. Also, sometimes exercise itself helps me relax if I'm feeling uptight.

    Not so much, it helps if you want to be mindlessly walking or jogging on the treadmill. Lol
