OK...you have made your point on tPF, got in some really good zingers on the other guys, and now it is time to relax. :laugh:
I am just curious how you do it.
I, of course, will start.
If it is daytime, I take a .22 rifle and go out back and plink. Plinking is popping away at random targets I set up on my wall. very relaxing.
If I can't go outside, I generally make a hot cup of GROG and relax with a book or just my thoughts. TV is not relaxing at all in any way for me. The GROG recipe I have dates from 1725 and is yummy. 1 part dark rum, 3 parts dark brown sugar, squeeze of lime, sprinkle of cinnamon and hot water. It is dark, sweet, and relaxing.:cool2:
So how do YOU relax after a hard day's fighting on the internet ? :evil:

I like to ride around on the four wheeler and swap out the memory cards on the trail cams. I might take a couple of beers with me and chill out at my favorite spot up on a hill.
I also like to mow grass, believe it or not. Throw the earbuds in, and earmuffs on top of that, and a good audiobook or podcast, and away I go. I keep a few acres mowed.

A little over a year ago it would simply have been workout and then go down to the hotel bar and grab dinner and a beer. That was all I would usually have time to do.
Now when I get to abandoned the emails and phone for the day, I head outside to get any sunshine that I can get. Walk the dog, mow the lawn...
My return to travel was postponed this week because I had to get shots in one of my eyes, but next week starts my move back to a normal life.

Plinking with the Benjamins...I try to shoot 2 or 3 from the collection every week. Keeps them in working order.
Golf three days a week.
My wife makes a wonderful black cherry shake with a touch of Bailey's Chocolate Cherry...well maybe more than a touch. :wink:

If I can't relax by getting my hands dirty in the garden I'll grab a book to lose myself in and fall asleep.

I fall asleep a lot better/faster with the TV on.....background noise......my TV will turn itself off after a few hours if there's been no change of channels, so I don't have to worry about it being on all night.
