I find myself spinning whenever i get uspet/madIt helps reduce stress for meSometimes i'll just pop them out, and start spinning in the living room, or outside at all hours of the day/night. sometimes i'll be walking around outside, on the way to class, and i'll think of a move, and go through the motions.I also have an addiction to Rave Liquid dancing. If you don't know what this is, I have a small video clip of it on my website:https://www.geocities.com/frodus17/misc/liquid.mpg

I do kinda the same thing, i find a pair of 4-inch glowsticks on string travel quite well in a pocket and combat boredom quite nicely...

you guys know where you can get electric glowsticks? (i assume they use LEDs). ive seen them around, and its a great idea, would be a huge money saver, but dont know where to buy em at.

I take my streamers with me pretty muchanywhere I go any more. It's a great wayto pass the time when you are waiting forsomeone or waiting in line, etc.I've had a particularly good time beforeconcerts where they've got good music playing, plenty of room on the dance floor, and nobody doing anything.I'm now looking to build a set of micro LEDpoi similar to Malcom's that I can carryarround in my pockets *all* the time.I've also noticed that I have poi dreams.Admit it, you know what I;m talking about,you've had them too. ;-) These are the oneswhere you go to bed after spinning for awhile and you start dreaming poi movesand transitions.Finally, I must admit I do have an addictionto fire. If I go more than a week withoutlighting up I start jonesin' hard. Andwhen I really get in a groove -- the rightspace, the right music, the right ppl, theright mood -- it is just downright hard tostop.-p.
