Like maybe grounding with reality?
Don't sit around all day staring at a blur of phosphorous dots...go out
and do something! Organize a game of SR (or anyother game for that
matter), go take a walk in the windy rain, write slug-mail to some really
attractive girl (or guy) that you met in Michigan, pick up a good book,
take up painting, try your hand at writing, go to some side-walk cafe and
drink really bad coffee and watch the people walk by, wander some overly
crowded mall and evesdrop on conversations and criticize the parents of
out of control kids, go to a movie and heckle the acting (go see "Mars
Attacks", heckle the acting and laugh hysterically at it's stupidity), get
some friends together and play roller-hockey... failing that, browse the
Internet, teach yourself some programming language, play MTG...or
something..(get a copy of "Master of Orion" and laugh maniacly as you bomb
other races colonies into the stone age and conquer the galaxy)..

Don't sit around WAITING FOR MAIL!
