The best way is sleeping!

Mach2@, you are SO right (I'm wondering if you knows anything 'bout Venus@ or not

) !

Going out with Venus@, IMHO, is much worse than going out with nightmare

(well, the one mentioned is the one knowing what I mean, forgive me).

There are many ways to cope with stress. Sleeping is okie, but it's not a recommended method. My approach is finding another stress, then the older (versus to the newer) stress may falls into NULL.

If you find that it's hard to get a new stress, go chat with me. You'll get indispensable feelings with stress.

I just wanna add this : Poultry is welcomed.
