Fresh flowers! Yes, it's amazing what they can do. I'm more of a hedonist than you are (surprise, surprise), but I don't let myself buy flowers unless I've cleaned the house. They're a reward for scrubbing behind the toilet and suchlike. How did a self-respecting atheist Jew wind up with this Protestant work ethic? I ask you.
I burn sandalwood incense after vacuuming, too. It gets rid of the burnt rubber smell, but mostly it makes me feel earthy and pagan and sensual. (:
You write better drunk than I write sober, but I can't say I'm surprised. Some of my favorite songs, poems, and stories were written under the influence of some drug or other. Seems to go hand in hand with creative expression. But yeah, it'd be good to find other ways to shut that bloody inner editor up.
