How do you take comfort after a wretched day?

[Amelia G]

When you are having a day where things just couldn't get worse . . . and then they get worse . . . how do you like to find comfort? What do you do to make yourself feel better?

[Bikerpunk]

Bourbon. Until I fall asleep.

[VoldtaEngler]

I sit and find a quiet place (my garage usually), fire up the airbrush, paint some things..or put on Dark Side of the Moon...those usually help me.

Midnight bike rides help too.

[SyntheticShock]

A long hot steamy shower. Relaxes me, and lets me think.

[drewblood]

[Toe Cutter]

I get fucked-up & sleep.

[TheDeathKnight]

Glass or two of wine... Ahhhhh...

[Mr Karl]

I just learned to live with bad days, got pointless taking comfort any other way

[Black Spiral Dancer]

If with my wife, some chocolate. If by myself. have a wank!

[Pull~My~Hair]

I smoke a big bowl and watch mindless television...wait..thats what I do every day

[Bikerpunk]

If with my wife, some chocolate. If by myself. have a wank!

Why am I imagining the audience of one of the Bottom live shows screaming the end of that sentence with you?

[DoomTart]

Listening to music with headphones in a dark room.

[Bikerpunk]

Can I just say in passing that DoomTart is an awesome name?

[evilstonermonkey]

heh i think i said that when she first rocked up :P: keep up BP

[athenahollow]

I watch this



I'm serious. Every time I feel sad/depressed/angry/pissed I look at that photo and laugh my ass off. Worked for 5 years now

[poison]

i eat chocolate and buy things off eBay.

Hahaha! OMG there's a variation... Dancing Stage, anyone??

[Baby_Switchblade]

As for me, I drink, watch stupid movies (Super Troopers, Anchorman, etc), paint, write, sew...... It really depends on the kind of day I've had. If it's merely tiring or whether I had a shit of a day on top of the lack of energy, the 'treatment' depends on the 'ailment'.

[vinylkitty]

Sex! If not available, then chocolate and a good book!

[Oil~Boy 26]

Used to be bud and food then sex but its been replaced by beer and or liquer. Also, Rosie is a good reprise now and again.

They have a wank in the Interval, that's what it's for!

[keiko]

If its been the worst day possible theres the sitting in a dark room with a few candles and Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here on repeat, a good drink and my big bean bag. A good drink can be anything from fresh squeezed grapefruit to a nice Irish coffee. Usually followed by a hot shower and sleep.

Usually though I flip through pictures of baby animals and scratch my kitties ears.

[Mr Karl]

a jacuzzi helps

[theUnclean]

Strip down to the basics, go to the garage and knock the fukn hell out of the heavy bag until I'm pukn... wash up, very icy shower...put on something nice, clean and presentable...walk the fuk away from my home and hit a small, semi-quiet place to have a pint (Guinness of course!). One or two of those black bodied babies and then its time for the greenest of green I may have...walk in the cold air, let my mind empty, drop the thoughts of life, obligations, all the bullshit of life falls from weary shoulders.
Let the cold winter air, the light wind, the icy rain wash over you until numbness sinks in...soul deep.

[incog]

Good friends and hard liquor are usually enough for your regular bad day.

[Black Spiral Dancer]

Keiko - I used to spend time with my parent's dog. She was a Samoyed and had very fluffy ears. I would just sit and stroke her for hours, but she died a few years ago (she was getting on) and I still miss her. Cuddly wolf toys just aren't the same.

[Damniel]

Driving & Music

[VoltaireBlue]

bah. I'm homesick.

[keiko]

Oh boy, there isn't enough booze on the planet to make this day go away...

~K

[evilstonermonkey]

heh. tell us that again after you tried to prove it

[keiko]

esm- four egg noggs later things still blew. it took the reading of an entire webcomic archive to take my brain off things.

~K

[evilstonermonkey]

ha, ben there done that, usually Something Positive or Schlock Mercenary. what ones do you read to chill?

[keiko]

Well being already so far up to date on S*P that I've read the first few for next year (no i'm not telling i gave Randy my word) and covering all of Nodwick, Penny Arcade and Two Lumps in the last year I went hunting for new stories and ran across Tale of the Questor (which is good despite being a little on the preachy side, think CS Lewis) and Errant Story (half elves trying to become insane demigods and take over the world in order to pass a school final) both of which read more like heavily illustrated novels. I haven't quite caught up with Errant Story yet, but imagine the disappointment of reaching the middle of a great story arc in a pretty good book and discovering that the next page hasn't been written yet. The frustration of this was enough to burn out the xmas dinner from my brain.

[keiko]

ps- oh and Keychain of Creation

[xxxnecklacexxx]

when i was with my BF I would go take a shower, and call him to bed for a night of passionate loud primal sex where I could lose myself in my senses, that definately took my mind off of things, or if it was just a crappy day we would go out and sing and listen to people sing and have a few drinks..
Now that Im single I mope around and every day is a bad day LOL but I take lots of baths, still go sing, put on makeup, dress up, write down endless dark depressing poetry, and day dream of better days..And a hug and smile from my little monkey gives me a light to follow when its really bad..

[Vaughn]

Gun range.

[Exquisite]

Surf the net lookin at stuff, talking with friends, demolishing the kitchen so I can have a pretty one ... something about wearing steel toed boots and wielding a sledge hammer ... mmm ... then comes the rebuilding ... thats my current stage >.< frustrating how slow it takes.

Um, you guys have pot up there, AND it's legal.

[VoltaireBlue]

I cook.... really nice food, with all the best ingredients... and then I eat said food... and it is awesome. I've been in a funk lately, and cooking has really been a saviour for me these days.

That reminds me, when are you back in the area? I do a pretty wicked poutine.
