Every Saturday I'll try to come up with some "out there" question that just makes you stop and think about something not so important. Think of it as a mini vacation. If you have any ideas drop me a line and we'll throw it in here. Who knows, it might be fun.
OK - Here goes:
It's the end of the day. You are exhausted. You just want to relax. Escape. So what do you do?
For me, now I blog. But I have to be honest. That isn't my ideal. I like a quiet evening with either a good movie or a good book. A nice dinner - preferably not cooked by me - and a drink. Not a stiff drink, no nothing too strong. Just an appletini or a Cpt. and Diet. Basic escapism. Yeah - that sounds like a nice little gte away.
So what do you do?

Posted by: TNT at March 12, 2005 09:03 AMI'd watch a movie, and then afterwards I'd hope the wife was up for a little "bedroom recreation". If you aren't relaxed after that, you're doing something wrong!

Late nights, when I can't find sleep, I do a little sci-fi writing.
I also have a long list of crafts I do when I am not writing.

Posted by: Sally at March 12, 2005 02:42 PMSally - I'm guessing the bra-removal thing doesn't do much for helping Alex relax :-)
Posted by: Harvey at March 12, 2005 02:45 PMDepends on the amount of relaxing I want to do.
A little relaxing usually is curling up on the couch under a blanket watching TV
Max relaxing is jacuzzi bath, candles and soft music.

Posted by: Boudicca at March 12, 2005 10:56 PMI cozy up with my wife and put on a British mystery, like Sherlock Holmes, or Waking the Dead, or Midsomer Murders.
Or an episode of House, Joan of Arcadia, NCIS, or The O.C.
Yeah, we're wimps!
