Thank you @missy and @rambo for the homework assignment 😉
As much as I would love to pull out the vixen card and say I relax with sex or daily sessions touching myself, that's not it. I mean sure those things help but I'll be real with you, that is simply not my outlet.
I live a very busy life and as someone who is constantly juggling a million different things at a time I'm always completely shocked when someone says I'm laid back. Strange as it sounds but to me that's a huge compliment since I feel I spend most of my day bordering neuroticism (my caffeine addiction. Probably doesn't help... I love strong black coffee tho) but I've realized lately that I have become considerably less neurotic and I have one explanation...
Im sure those of you who follow me guessed it... I paint!
Nothing like a little creative expression to ease some tension and get some emotional baggage out of my system! If you haven't heard about the suicide girls twitch account (twitch.tv/suicidegirls) then shame on you! I spend every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday night streaming while I paint and on Thursdays I'm on the sg account so not only do I get to relax while I paint, I get to talk to an endless supply of awesome people and that right there is my main outlet.
Now that's not my only outlet, just my #1. I also enjoy a good workout and I go to the gym about 5 days per week. Exercise helps when something is really bothering me (plus, I'll admit it, it makes me feel sexy!) which also helps but painting is what really does it for me.
How about you? What turns you from a Neurotic Nancy to a Mellow Yellow?
