Are there any SAFE forms of relaxation?
Having second-handedly smoked 9 cigarettes today, I'm feeling surprisingly relaxed and funky. No wonder people do this stuff! Of course, it bloody well stinks to high heaven, so I won't ever do it again...

So, what relaxes a person without slowly killing them?

Oh, WHY did I engage in something so horrifying? For something utterly ridiculous:



:evilgrin:

2. Marijuana is quite safe.
Just use a vaporizer.

5. That purple peep is going to burn his mouth.
Can you turn that thing around? Poor little guy. He will be a roasted peep soon.

13. That's deliberate...
The website tells the whole story (well, I have to wait for the peep to dry before I do the most digusting thing of all to show the effects of smoking... :evilgrin: )

But that peep is the dumb one, trying to do it backwards.

Also, the yellow one without the ciggie is not a coward (yellow). He was just repulsed by the orgy and wanted to go away... :D

10. Do you know how many people die in their sleep each year?
It has to be one of the most dangerous activities possible ;-)

14. Thanks! Incidentially,
The decompressor should arrive next week... :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin: (okay, it's actually a vacuum food storage apparatus with a manual pump, but at least I'll be able to use it after I see the results of removing the atmosphere from a peep's environment! I'm guessing it'll be a hoot to do...

I also tried using a blender, but the blades just can't cut through ooey-gooey marshmallow... :cry:

9. I achieve
a Zen-like state cycling. Since I've been stressed out lately, I've been doing a lot of it — 27 miles Sunday, 10 miles Monday, 15 miles Wednesday, 35 miles Friday and 30 miles today. Wonder how many I'll do tomorrow?

Whatever you do — DON'T SMOKE!!!

Especially some form of Yoga or Tai Chi, or other exercise meant for calming and meditation! Love the peeps, btw :)

15. Exercise?
When I'd be on the verge of choking my former editor, I'd put on my sneakers and go for a nice, fast-paced walk.

Gonna also throw a vote in for a long hot bath or shower.
