Serotonine session: a guide

Phabulous photo by Andrea!

Have you been feeling in the dumps lately? Does your awesomeness need a serious kick? Follow these steps the next sunny day you have wherever you live:

1. Find a nearby park.
2. Bring a book with you or call a friend. Or even better, do both.
3. Proceed to find the perfect sunny spot.
4. Pretend for an hour that skin cancer doesn't exist. (But bringing protection would be wise)
5. Have a long chat with said friend about plans, problems, people you love and people you despise.
6. And for god's sake, don't forget the drinks! (avoid alcohol, not a good mixture with heat).
7. Feel free to complete all this with ice cream, cupcakes or, why the hell not, a picnic.

Bonus: this works wonderfully if you're "playing truant"...
