    When I’m feeling blue, the best thing to turn my mood around is some happy music, a starbucks coffee, or a nice hot bubbly bath (with a good book :) ).

  • Skinner

    I’m lucky enough to have a very patient Jessica at my side, and to live at the edge of nowhere. If I’m deeply displeased, I’ll ask to be dropped along some shaggy country road, and then I’ll walk for a few hours in no particular direction. I usually bring a snack, a notebook, and my iPhone.

    When I’ve tuckered myself out, I figure out where I am on my GPS, and call for a ride back to civilization.

  • FieryPinkGirl

    I definitely turn to tunes more than anything else when I am feeling blue. I have a couple of mixed lists and CDs with the theme, ‘Attitude Adjustment.’ :)

    Tunes that make you wanna dance or jump or scream in catharsis… April March’s ‘Chick Habit’, Dresden Dolls’ ‘Girl Anachronism’, Suicidal Tendencies’ ‘You Can’t Bring Me Down’, Pink’s ‘Humble Neighborhoods’, Violent Femmes’ ‘Kiss Off’, the entire Cramps album, Date with Elvis, any Social Distortion, Brian Setzer or Transvision Vamp… you see, I have quite the arsenal in the attitude adjustment field!

    Feel free to see if they help you too.
    *Cheers!*

    To love myself up, I snuggle down and watch any movie with Marilyn Monroe or Molly Ringwald. They never fail to disappoint me.

    Love, jen

    Also… When you say “pink sparkly leopard print lady pants”, do you mean secret pants?

    • jeslacasse

      I absolutely mean secret pants!

  • Calli

    I pamper myself, by painting my nails or doing a facial mask, etc.

    Thank you so much for offering such a lovely and generous giveaway! When I’m feeling blue I like to get out of the house and take a drive, see a movie or visit a friend.

    When I’m feeling down on myself—I make it a point to hang out with people who think I’m awesome and tell me so. A little love goes a long way. Also… find something that gives me a good laugh— like the current popular sloth video! :o p

  • Cassandra

    I already follow you on twitter, going to post a tweet now (cass-wilson) and like your facebook page!

  • http://joy365.wordpress.com Natalie Joy

    When I’m feeling blue, I usually end up writing. Either on my blog… trying to remind myself of the good parts of my day. Or on a play… trying to escape away from whatever is dragging me down.

    Wicked giveaway by the way. You are awesome. (PS. I already follow you on Twitter.) xo

  • Fiona Currie

    Wow, what a super Valentine’s care package!

    When I’m feeling blue, I like to turn self loathing into self improvement. That usually means:
    - Go for a long run with some great tunes to clear my head. Metric is one of my favourites for turning up the fierce and making me feel powerful again.
    - Or if the weather’s bad, hop on my ellptical machine with an episode of Madmen.
    - Or if I’m just sick and tired of being sick and tired: pack myself off to Le Nordik spa in Chelsea. It never fails to clear up a head cold, soothe my aching muscles or just restore that healthy glow in my cheeks.

    • jeslacasse

      Let me know if you ever need a Le Nordic date!

    When I’m feeling blue I buy myself something really yummy to eat. Sushi for one is one of my favourite lunches!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  • Amy M

    When I’m feeling down, I bake and cheer myself up with something chocolate! I love baking chocolate fudge cupcakes!!

  • Kat

    When I’m feeling blue, i tell myself that tomorrow is a better day. Then, I go get ice cream or a slice of chocolate cake and everything becomes so much better :)

    When I feel down, there’s nothing like a sappy chick flick to perk me up. They are usually so far fetched and unrealistic but they make me smile inside (and out)!
