LOL. You would think so, but I'm worse when I'm relaxed and in a good mood. Thats when I crank the tunes and zip around at higher than recommended speeds. (Up to the speed limit of couse. lol).. When Im down/annoyed/upset I tend to drive around average speed (or slow if theres nobody to pace myself against) deep in my thoughts.

I do several stuff and try to vary it if possible. When i sit in front of a computer I tent to draw small sketches on a paperblock. When i need to get a break i Drum a bit (if possible).
But my favorite if i need to think something through i put on some complex music (classical, mathcore.. ) and take a walk, doesnt matter if it rains or the sun is shining.
