Have you all had exciting weekends? I spent mine on the couch, throwing up and eating a banana a day. It's been thrilling. But it made me think of comforts. I don't have comfort food, but I indulge in comfort movies and books. I see Master and Commander or Jarhead, leaf through The Secret History. Or dig out Roald Dahl's books in Norwegian. And I re-read the anachronistic translation of C.S. Lewis' Narnia I read growing up. And certain parts of Lord of the Rings, like the chapter called 'Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit' (it sounds more intriguing in Norwegian though, "Om krydder og kokt kanin"). I should figure out what it is in Russian.

Which in turn made me curious about what everyone else does for comfort? Eat, sleep, sing?


And P.S.: I'm going through my notifications and weeding out comments I've forgotten to answer. Sorry I've been so slack lately.

That is a good question actually, I've never really thought about it before... I think if I am ill or bored or sad or anything, I will always watch Friends. It's my fallback that I never get sick of. Or I read Harry Potter, or watch one of the films, any of them. As for food, I'd say salty and buttery potato is my biggest comfort.
