    Since I'm up before the crack of dawn getting ready for work, commuting for an hour to get there and then at work for 9.5 hours I totally understand the uptightness! but when I get home, after working out and dinner, I try and plan for the day ahead so I won't have to stress as much in the am...and when I have then chance, I lay on the couch, watch some tv, and fall asleep...I usually only sleep for 3-6 hours so when Friday comes, I'm ready!lol.

    I am ridiculously high-strung. None of the normal stuff relaxes me. I hate taking baths - boring, kind of disgusting and just uncomfortable. Yoga actually stresses me out. The only things that really do it are reading, writing, walking and red wine. I also feel relaxed right after a workout, but not for long.

    I stretch out on the floor, on my yoga mat, and just breathe. I don't think, I don't watch TV, I don't speak, just breathe.

    Smoke a J, take a bath, watch a movie. House must be clean.

    Haha, that's totally me, except it's smoke and do some gardening or surfing. But the house must be clean first or I'll spend my relaxing time cleaning.

    I like to unwind on some twisty country back road on my Harley. And of course, er... *kitten*.
