What would you do to relax if you could only do that one thing.... Fishing, reading books, watching movies, riding a horse, skiing etc

Sorry now sexual things for this question... :(
 
Talk to myself. My head would probably also explode in short order.
 
indoor or outdoor ?

nothing better for me than 18 holes of golf on a crisp morning to clear the head and destress - outdoors


Nice spliff and some good music in doors
 
I like to read.
My bedroom has this massive window that gets the arvo sun.
I like to lay on my bed with a book.
Lately i've been doin more daydreaming than reading.
I've finally realised i have no idea who i am.

I like to read trashy magazine/gossip type rags.
I like things that make me giggle.
National Enquirer is a favorite.
 
This may sound odd, but cooking relaxes me.

I like to plan a small dinner party, find some interesting things to cook, figure out what kinds of wine to get, and spend the day in the kitchen making a good 3-4 course meal for a handful of people.

I think because it tends to awaken all my senses, I find it to be both stimulating and relaxing. And getting a head start on tasting the wine doesn't hurt, either.
 
A Stephen King novel would do it... a nice long day on the lake, fishing pole in hand would be nice... or just taking a walk sometimes can be quite relaxing.
 
Take my favorite music and sit on a private spot on the beach....just watching the waves crash in, listening to my favorite songs. get away from it all. i wish i could do this right now!

reading is second.

Excellent idea, after I've finished reading. Into the kitchen and rustle up something Chinese or Indian, with some more vino of course!

I like the idea of giving a dinner party, but spending a few hours cooking in a kitchen seems like torture to me. :)
 
Well, since I basically read for a living and I'm philosophically opposed to any form of non-sexual exercise, and TV and movies usually bore me to tears, spending an hour or two in the kitchen is a nice reprieve. :)
