If you're like me, you get a bit somber and depressed after thinking too much on the events and the aftermath of September 11, 2001. A friend of mine in South Africa, no stranger to post-traumatic stress, sent the following years ago to help relieve the symptoms. It brought a smile to my face this morning when I stumbled upon it looking for something else. Here's hoping it has the same effect on you.
HOW TO HANDLE STRESS
Drive to work in reverse
Braid the hair in each nostril
Dance naked in front of your pets
Pay your electricity bill in one cent coins
Tattoo "Out to lunch" on your own forehead
Find out what a frog in a blender really looks like
Forget weight watchers and send yourself a candygram
Make a list of "Things to do" that you have already done
Make up a language and ask people in the street directions
Jam 29 tiny marshmallows up your nose and try to sneeze them out
When someone says "Have a nice day" tell them you have other plans
Leaf through a "National Geographic" and draw underwear on the natives
Go shopping for clothing, buy everything, sweat in it, return it the next day
Start a nasty rumour and see if you can recognize it when it comes back to you
Stare at people through the holes in a fork and pretend they are all in jail
Send your doctor a bill for the times you spent in his waiting room
Lie on your back eating celery, using your navel as a salt dipper
Read a dictionary upside down and look for a secret message
Pop some popcorn without putting the lid on
Fill in your tax returns in Roman numerals
Use your MasterCard to pay your VisaCard
Polish your car with ear wax
