Think of a movie you haven't seen since you were a little kid, and track it down and watch it. See how much you remember.

Friday

Channel your emotions into stomping. Stomp out all your anger, happiness, frustration, silliness, what have you! Just stomp around the room. Go nuts!

Thursday

Have a snowball fight. If it's not snowing where you live, have a paperball fight. :*)

Wednesday

November 12, 2008

Try to remember all the words to one of those handclap games you played as a kid. Extra credit if you remember the motions.

"Down by the banks of the hanky-panky where the bullfrogs jump from bank to banky..."

Go fly a kite. No, really, because soon it will be too cold, and you won't be able to. So go fly one now.

Saturday

November 8, 2008

Expose yourself to a new artist (check out a gallery or a book). Write about what moves you about their work.

Write down all the curse words you know! You can also alphabetize them, if you feel so inclined.

Monday

November 3, 2008

Start a scrapbook or a journal, if you don't have one already. Your life is beautiful and interesting, and someone should be keeping track of it. And in ten years, you can look back on what you've written and laugh. Or cry. Depending. :*)

Sunday

November 2, 2008

Don't worry today. You are hereby not allowed to worry for the rest of the day. You are free. :*)

Pick a habit of yours you wish you didn't have, and break it. Smoking, biting your nails, losing your temper, overeating, being sarcastic to puppies, whatever. Be free!

Tuesday

October 28, 2008

Put on your favorite song, and dance like nobody's watching.

It'll be fuuuuunnnn... :*)

On purpose.

Water doesn't count.

(I promise you'll feel freer afterwards.)

Saturday

October 25, 2008

Kiss someone today. Your wife, your dad, your little brother, your dog, a stranger, I don't care. Just do it.

Comment if you feel like it.

Friday

Obtain a piece of paper. Draw on it only circles. Any media, any design, but use only circles.

Thursday

Go the entire day (or rest of the day) without looking into a mirror today.

Comment about how it went if you wish.

Wednesday

Go back and find the last thing you knew in your heart that you were supposed to do but didn't, and do it.

Tell us about it in the comments, if you like.

Tuesday

Destroy something. Then create something.

Let us know in the comments how it goes.

Monday

Break your daily routine. Order something you've never tried for lunch, take a new route for your morning run, wink at someone if you're usually shy, go all day without checking your email - the possibilities are endless, and the choice is yours. It's up to you how much fun you have with it. :*)

Did you feel invigorated? Uneasy? Different? If you like, let us know how it went in the comments.

Buy a homeless person a sandwich.

Go to your favorite library or bookstore, and find a section you normally wouldn't visit. Choose a random, interesting-looking book from the shelves, and read the first twenty pages.

Did you keep going after the initial twenty pages? Why or why not? Tell us in the comments, if you wish.

Friday

October 17, 2008

Go outdoors, and find something you've never noticed before. Focus on it, and pay explicit attention to it, as if your life depended upon it, for five minutes.

Write your observations in the comments if you like.

Thursday

October 16, 2008

Talk to a stranger today. It can be as simple as "Nice day today," or as involved as you like.

Try to make it so that your talking to them makes their day just a little bit better. You never know - your "Have a great day!" might cheer up a secretly depressed cashier or waitress.

Wednesday

October 15, 2008

Tell someone you love that you love them, especially if you've never told them before.

Tuesday

October 14, 2008

Throw something across the room.
