Just some notes to myself:
- Read old books. And re-read classics. Steal old stuff.
- Go for long walks. Get out every morning because the demons hate fresh air.
- Play the piano. If you get stuck, you can always go Bach.
- Make art with the kids. They will teach you.
- Watch screwball comedies. Quick-fire fun romantic stuff like It Happened One Night, The Thin Man, His Girl Friday, The Palm Beach Story, The Lady Eve, etc.
- Listen to soul music. It never fails you.
- Write in your diary. On paper. And go back and revisit it.
- Take naps. And take them the right way.
- Look at the moon. It gives you perspective.
- Make dumb lists. (When in doubt, tidy up.)
