WAG - Homemade Recipe
How to combat the stress involved with accidentally breaking another glass bowl, juggling the Thanksgiving cooks slaving away in the kitchen, having a resident receive undeserved hate mail, helping another deal with a robbery (purse snatched, no harm to her, thank God) and MUPD officers, and trying to finish my short story when facing a mental block caused by all the aforementioned items and more:
Step1) Listen to REM's Bad day.
Step 2) Watch the trailer for Miracle about the 1980 US Hockey Team.
Step 3) Read a list of reasons why Jessie loves me composed around 2 a.m. in the morning during a bout of insomnia after she finished writing down the books in her collection (so I could better craft my Christmas shopping).
Repeat steps 1-3 as necessary and in whatever order you desire.
