3. I watch stupid 'chick flicks'
Like yesterday for instance, I watched both "The Prince & Me" and the "The Prince & Me II." Good times, good times. :hi:

9. Watch a funny movie or comedy special.
Doesn't always work, but most often it does.

Hope you get to feeling better.

12. different things
1. ride it out (usually by sleeping, since I figured out moods come and go, I know it'll GO)

or 2. watch a funny movie & laugh for a while.

or 3. do something I'll feel proud of, finish some project or make a piece of art or cook something fancy.

or other stuff too, usually involving wine, I go back and forth from melancholic to ecstatic a lot
