...I bet we've all had those days, right? Really, really long days, where you long to go home and just... unwind. :)

What do you do to relax at home? How do you unwind?

Me? I drink tea, and curl up to my favourite TV show or movie, or I come on my laptop and web design. Call me a nerd, but web designing can be quite relaxing for me. :D

Well, enough about me. How about you? :D

I like to listen to music, watch some tv, go on the computer, hang around my family or friends. Play with my dog. Take a short nap even though I'll end up sleeping all day if I do....lol

I always enjoy a good movie. Nothing on TV really interests me at the moment, minus the occasional episodes of Pokémon and The Alfred Hitchcock Hour that I always try to catch. XD; It's fun to curl up on the couch and watch them, especially when I'm with my family.

Drawing is another way that helps me relieve stress, as well as listening to music, going online to chat with friends, or taking a walk at my grandparent's house. And of course, I love to drink nice, relaxing tea~ ♥

Most of the time I'll take a hot shower or bath, spend a few hours on the computer, get all comfy in bed with my DS and play whatever game I'm into at the moment, draw pictures (how many sketchbooks have I gone through this past year?), listen to music, I'll make food I like, I'll spend some time with my cat or my plants, or I'll call up my friend and we'll talk about nothing in particular. Before I fall asleep, I like to lie in bed and just think about whatever comes to my head, daydream out little scenarios and stuff. I swear I could entertain myself with my own head for hours. :o

If I'm really mad when I get home, or if I have a headache or something, I'll just go straight to bed. Occasionally I'll write out a big long rant on paper out of anger. That helps, especially when there's no one around to hear me piss and moan about things. Sometimes I'll go outside when I want to be alone, but that seldom works because people are all over the place for some reason. >:|

I get online, check what happened while I was gone, and check my favourite websites. If I'm in a social mood (or so long as I don't hate the world) I'll sign into MSN. Friends make every day better. :'D

Otherwise I play video games.

Well for me, there are various ways to unwind.

Could grab a nice refreshing drink and watch a movie or some television. Hit the bed and nap, wake up take a shower and do whatever. Though mainly I just shower, head online and check various things, even check out MSN. Could even go take a bike ride over at the pier if the weather's nice. ;D

I come home and have something to eat first. Then I check around my most visited sites to see if anything was missed during my absence.

Then I'll usually write, play Nintendo, or log on to Yahoo and talk to friends--or all three at the same time.

I go on the computer... and eat. Then later, I watch TV. I don't really do much when I get home.

Well, I'd generally just come home, un-change and get into my boxers and a T-shirt. Then(mainly) go to my computer and go on to my fav sites, msn and RuneScape.

If my internet is down(which it's down more than dial up -.-) I'd go watch the Anime channel or find a movie. After that, an early night sleep. xD

T_T, I guess you're trying to make fun of me. ;__;
For me that's mostly everyday, XD my friends at PC make me feel better though. ;D
I've gotten used to it, usually I just count down the mintues to bed. I love sleeping. It's not a crime.

Let's see, as soon as I get home from school, I either:

1. Finish my homework
2. Go on the net to talk to you cool people XP
3. Take a shower
4. Watch TV and see what's stupid on Cartoon Network
5. Practice my piano, violin, oboe, clarinet, and/or marimba

I listen to music while I browse forums and talk to people on AIM/MSN.

Miss Lynn, unwind is such a deadly word.
'It's been a prevalent notion. Fallen sparks. Fragments of vessels broken at the Creation. And someday, somehow, before the end, a gathering back to home. A messenger from the Kingdom, arriving at the last moment. But I tell you there is no such message, no such home -- only the millions of last moments . . . nothing more. Our history is an aggregate of last moments.'

And of course I come on here, or play Professor Layton.
All three of those are guaranteed to make me feel better.

I'm slightly stuck-up and aesthetics-obsessed, so it's highly unlikely you'll see me use anything but shiny Pokemon.
Deal with it. :]

I'm never really relaxing. Sure, you'd say that I'm just relaxing now, but haha even online I have work.

When you use the exact definition of the word "relaxing," I'd say that it would be just laying down and watching television with icecream on my laugh. XD

It's been long but we can do it; let's make this our dream

Look to tomorrow because it's all we have. Turn up the music until the walls shake. What do we have?
Is it hope? Love? Is it nothing at all? We won't know at all until we make something of what we feel.
When that happens, we'll find the truth. We'll find what we want. And we will find ourselves, finally.

Yes, I have had plenty of these days, they usually tend to be when I have a 10 hour shift at work. I just wanna get home and relax, and due to my job, by that time, my feet are hurting alot.

Hmm, well, I buy an ice cream, eat it at home, watch tv, I'll excercise to prevent me from sleeping, and sleep. DD:

Really, I just watch T.V.

It really depends for me. Usually I just come home, grab something to eat, and go online.. that always makes me feel better. :D But lately I've been really tired, so I usually go straight upstairs and go to sleep. That'll probably change really soon, since it's spring now and I'll be expected to go outside and see my horse more often and everything.

I usually go on the computer, to Serebiiborums, to 4chan, to Bulbagarden or I just draw with my tablet or search the internet
I never watch TV. Maybe an hour or two a week. But mostly during weekends when there's something good on PBS

I either plop myself down in my chair and switch my comp on to see if anyone is around or crash into my bed and switch my TV and/or DS on to watch some tv and/or game it up

however if its a really long day I may just fall in bed, turn the tv on and possible doze off for a couple hours
