I have been stressed out (which is a total understatement) and when I am stressed out I usually turn to retail therapy or chocolate for some relief. When I got home on Friday I vowed to not turn my work laptop on again until Sunday night unless it was a major emergency. Instead I used my little pink netbook to "destress".

Once again I never completed the check out. I just couldn't justify spending money right now when BlogHer '10 is coming up in 52 days. Even though I didn't buy I feel a lot less stressed. I think all I really needed was to ignore work for a couple of days. Let my brain rest ... and stare at pretty things online.
