Not because you have to, but because you WANT to! Things you enjoy, even when no one around you wants to go out and play. What lowers your stress/blood pressure/anxiety level? Make a list, post it to your journal... and then tag 5 friends and ask them to post it to theirs.
1. Browsing bookshops, especially ones I associate with happy book-buying experiences. (Actual book-buying not necessary, but it is fun if I find something good and unexpected).
2. Visiting a new museum or art gallery, or one I've not been to for a long time.
3. Setting up a spreadsheet to do some abstruse orbital mechanics or astronomy calculation, just for the fun of seeing if I still can.
4. Catching up on must-get-round-to-watching DVDs (West Wing, new Battlestar Galactica etc) over a nice beer.
5. Browsing eBay for my secret geeky collectable, old HP calculators.
6. Playing around with Photoshop to find a new graphics effect, or a better way to do an existing one.
7. Wandering round modernistic interior-design shops and coming up with ideas for the house.
8. Reading RPG sourcebooks (especially if written by mildly-deranged erudite polymaths likeprinceofcairo)
9. Finding new and interesting bits of my favourite cities (mainly London, but lately Cambridge and, when the chance presents itself, Washington).
10. Finding and reading websites devoted to exhaustively comprehensive analysis of some pet interest or passingly-interesting bit of pop culture (such as this, this or even this).
