Two Words: Silly Putty

Hey,

Ok, it may sound corny, but Silly Putty has helped me enormously over the last week! I went and picked up 2 of the small plastic eggs filled with the stuff and blended them together to make one big hunk of prolonged stress relief. As I sit watchin TV, talking on the phone, or even now (i have it stuck to the palm pad area on my laptop for easy grabbins) i squeezed and molded this stuff, calming my nerves. I know its not a cure all, and you might just want to keep it at home...but it has helped me remian relatively calm this week. Try it out.

WSTS

Oh wow, I haven't played with silly putty in forever! I think I'll go buy some. Sounds much healthier than what I've been doing to relieve stress. I've been picking at my skin a lot.
Hey, I think I'll get the newspaper too

Maybe...but I do that too...sometimes in public!
If you ever see a girl with a cigarette in her left hand and her right pointer finger in her nose digging away, there's a very good chance that's me.

You can pick your friends, you can pick your nose, but you cant pick your friends nose.

I had a keychain that said that when I was a kid.

Ive seen it used in elder care too for people who have
repetetive hand motions.
The only down side ...some will try to eat it.

So I gave them soft medium size bright colored stuffed animals instead.

Longer lasting than popping bubble wrap, too.
