comfort rituals

Jeff took this photo with his new camera.

A New Poll: what are your comfort rituals?

What do you do when you are feeling down? Here are some of my favorites, but I'd be interested in hearing yours.

Take a bath. A long one that makes the tips of your fingers wrinkle up like a prune.

Read a familiar novel whose ending you already know.

Read this novel while you're taking your bath.

Go for a long walk in the sunshine. If no sunshine is available, then go for a long walk anyway.

At the end of your long walk, find a chocolate truffle shop. Treat yourself to just one luscious truffle. Spend a long time making your choice.

Go running.

Go to a movie theater and watch a mindless action flick or a sappy romance with a happy ending.

Call up or e-mail a close friend and hang out.

Wander through St. Lawrence market or Kensington Market. Choose one food item that you've never tried before.

Write a Blathering. :-)
