What is your ideal before bed activity?

[JokerCrowe]

I stomp on baby ducks. I've found it releases stress. Somtimes I drown kittens in my sink. Also a stress reliever.

(seriously, what do want us to write? )

windows key - turn off computer - shut down

Then let 8 hours or so pass.

The title of this thread made me lol but its actually surprisingly tame....

 

[Queen Michael]

I read. Like I always do.

 

[GnomeThief]

I listen to music and think about stuff for about a half hour. Sometimes I'll read or lurk the forums too. On occasion I'll even watch a movie, which usually leads to my parents discovering me in the morning lying on my bed backwards with my computer headphones wrapped around my neck and hanging off the edge of the bed and the title screen of the movie still on my computer screen. But that's almost always on weekends.

After my whole bathroom thing (brush my teeth, wash off makeup, etc), I read. I've also found (if possible) that not looking at a screen (TV, computer, DS, whatever) for an hour or so before going to bed helps me fall asleep. I know that's close to impossible for most of us, though.

 

[Insert Comedy Here]

Watching the telly, or sleep deprivation. Whatever works first works best.

 

[Ham_authority95]

I usually go on the Escapist or jam on my bass for a bit.

Something to get my thoughts out of my head.

 

[Tonimata]

Playing guitar to backing tracks.
Sometimes you just have to let yourself go with the music.

 

[Tharwen]

Waste about an hour on Forum Games, and possibly play Bejeweled. Unfortunately, my longest and best games tend to be right before I go to sleep and I often end up in bed at about 1am.

 

[Chase Yojimbo]

Porn -> Read Book -> Music -> Sleep.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

I watch TV until I pass out, leaving my sleep schedule hopeless random.

 

[Kael Thor]

I usually lie down, close my eyes and get really frustrated when 3 hours pass and I can't fall asleep.
Then I get up, ignore the desire to sleep and start the new day.
The next day, I pass out for a few hours or so, then I'm up again^^

Its...not a very good way to get sleep, but hey...

 

[azncutthroat]

I go on 4chan. There's nothing like a good trolling before a good night's sleep.

 

[Marowit]

A mug of tea, and some video gaming.

 

[Mozza444]

Simple exercise, works great to get you to sleep.

 

[Critical92]

reading comics or Nipping the Onion (tried to keep it clean)

 

[Marter]

I'll drink some milk usually, if I need to fall asleep. I usually don't do anything special or routine though, I'll just fell asleep when I'm tired.
