I give my self about 30 minutes after school drop-off in the morning to scan the newspapers over a cup of coffee. I get very antsy if I feel like I haven't had a little bit of time to inhale and take in the day before it even really gets started. After my decaf and some current events, I feel more connected with the world, as well, and less stressed out.

Every now and then I get drunk and find a dog to kick.

I usually try and get up about a half an hour earlier to get some exercise before I start my day. It helps releave stress, and my days usually go a little bit better with having done that daily routine.

I read blogs and other columns about other people's issues and problems. This helps me put into perspective my problems. Most of my problems do not seem as great and sometimes I find helpful advice.
