ScienceGeek Report post Posted November 20, 2007 Well to relax I normally start off with a nice hot bubbly bath followed by lying in a dark room with the lava lamp and rope light on. I normally listen to some relaxing music, my cd that I relax to is by Sigur Ros. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bard Report post Posted November 20, 2007 I watch martial arts/fantasy action films, usually in the middle of the night when I can't sleep and everyone else is unconscious and not going to be doing the three-tone Mu-u-uum thing at me. I find it helps to channel my naturally aggressive nature! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bard Report post Posted November 21, 2007 Get to your bed you shameless hussy! Good job that all the tender young things like little Mumble are asleep, lusting after men is one thing, but perhaps not whilst they're being autopsied. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suze Report post Posted November 21, 2007 I,ve been really emotional lately and a good way to relax is running, I,ve been doing a 5k in about 25-28 mins which is pretty good, listening to the killers on my i-pod at the same time helps . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya got in before me, I was gonna say that I run to relax as well. Well, I relax AFTER I've run, that is. Then, I settle down with a nice cuppa and a sandwich and watch Star Trek, my idea of a perfect day!! ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oxgirl Report post Posted November 21, 2007 Hooray, the ASD running club is back in full effect (yep, I'm still pounding the streets too) Yaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy, glad to hear it! There's a Santa run in my town in a few weeks and everyone who enters has to dress up as Santa. I'd love to enter but you need teams of 8 and I don't know 8 people, let alone 8 runners!! Only need 5 more and we could all do it together!! ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaisyProudfoot Report post Posted November 21, 2007 To relax and switch off varies. If it's a weekend relax after a long week at work then I take the Land Rover and go off-roading On the evening (once the youngest ones are in bed) I get a nice big glass of something alcoholic and then curl up in front of TV watching a nice historic or geographic documentary or I go to bed and read a book Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
