Actually I will really go for a jog when I really feel like killing myself.

wait, does your suicide plan include jogging, too?

Actually, when things were dark (i.e. life sucked) I liked coming to this message board and participating in The Best Show. It really did help for a while.

Put on my tap or toe shoes and do improvisational choreography around the house. This mostly occurs at times like right now, when my boyfriend is away and it's just me and the cats. I dance with them sometimes too. But they're terrified of my tap shoes.

I clip out things from the paper that I find interesting and turn them into things.  One time a made a tablecloth out of weird things from the classifieds.

Tap dancing is the most happy making thing! I took it up as a hobby when Captain Insane-O lived in the apartment under mine.

Sometimes I end phone conversations with "I love you" just for the hell of it.

That one made me laugh. I could never get away w/ that. . . people would think I was weird and not funny.

I bake cookies from the refrigerated tubes of dough. I also play acoustic guitar and sing really loud.

I also like to call people who are obviously older than me "son"

George St.- I'm havin' a time
Brenda- I'm havin' a time
Bingo- I'm havin' a time
House Arrest- I'm still havin' a time

Led Zeppelin 1&2 help, so does listening to TBSOWFMU archive, also Small Change and Billy Jams archive are good. 

a few years ago after losing a job (cant say i was to broken up about it) and preparing for my first solo painting show (ok maybe im bragging a little bit) i was spending 12 hours a day in my studio.  after a while i was getting depressed and stir crazy, listening to 3 best shows back to back to back in the studio helped.  also knowing a young lady that put up with me calling her at all hours of the night was helpful also. 
you're gonna love hell, its a lot like Ohio.

I also fall back on my gloomy Calvinist upbringing which taught me that when life is nothing more than unending, continuous, back-breaking menial labor, you're doing everything right.  That's the way it's supposed to be if you want to go to heaven.

Only whether you go to heaven or not is predetermined and you have nothing to do with it, right?

Calvin had some problems.

I had cause for one of those little things today and have spunked away £100 on gambling. Need the Red Sox to win to have some sort of parity. Even worse I gambled on whether the total number of runs would be odd or even. When you're chucking money away on bets like that then it's time to leave the house and do something.

If you're betting on Baseball, especially games on the last weekend when half the teams aren't even trying, then yes, you need to try something else...  like American Football!  Parlays and Teasers, Over/Under bets etc. are a lot better than anything you can find in Baseball.  Although you haven't reached rock bottom until, like me a few years ago, you've found yourself betting on Hockey.
