What would you do if you had 6 days off... that does not involve too much $$$, sex or large crowds? ~Desribe an interesting/creative day, one that would be interesting to you.
**If you know me (somewhat), what would you suggest for me to do? ~Smile (yes, your thoughts matter to me) 
I'm counting on you... 6 Days? At least 1 needs to be spent sharing quality time with a friend that you treasure and inspires you...get together, get out the herbal tea and nibbles (or the BOOZE and canapes if you feel a little wilder!!!), and just tell stories and listen to music and laugh (and maybe cry) and just wrap yourself up in the moments that you don't usually have time to share together. 1 day should be spent for a self-indulgent "field-trip". This can be a beach, a library, a petting zoo, or your local botanical garden. Take music headphones and a book/or magazine...if they have a little eating place on site, take advantage so that you don't have to think about nourishing yourself with your own effort...just use the time to get lost in yourself and relax... Choose one day to lose yourself in a book or other reading material to nourish ideas flourishing in your head.... One night should be dedicated to treating yourself to an opulent meal in a restaurant...whatever opulent personally means to you. Be it a Spanish tapas bar, a neverending feast of Sushi...veggie cuisine, or hell, a chain restaurant...it has to be whatever you can really dig into and preferably enjoy to the hilt, and naturally, it's always fun if you have a friend there to share the fun (unless you really would like to enjoy the experience in solitude)! One day or night could be devoted to seeing something creative; be it an arthouse film you've been dying to catch, or a music or dance performance. Anything from the ballet to a band...take a few hours to feed off of the creative energy of another presence...it makes a body feel GOOOOOD and you will be moved! Lastly, in the middle of all of this, you need to find one day to sleep and piddle around in your jammies with no aims whatsoever  | |

Sleep in one day - revitalizes the soul. Read a book by Maya Anjelou. You are a nature lover, a hike is rewarding. Have a nice cold beer...    ~Hike~ 
You know it! | |

I would: a) scan all my pictures on to my computer and burn them on cd (I have over 1000) b) record all of my cassettes on to my computer so that I can burn them. c) take lots of baths. d) redecorate e) try out new restaurants in town I know, I'm a nerd. M   | |

We shall see how my days unfold. Thank you for your words and your time.

  News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

I would not know what to do with myself. If I had $3000, I would jump on a plane to see my grandmas, for maybe the last time. I miss them. I miss my motherland. I would take a million photos there - my current surrounds don't inspire me. | |
