After moving to a tropical beach, my wife and I have adopted the ritual of watching the sunset while listening to Pink Floyd's "Animals" while drinking rum drinks.

I get up around 4am before work, put on my headphones and play some Hendrix . Not too loud, just enough until my eardrums explode and bleed all over the floor. This tends to calm me down before my first open heart case of the day.

If I'm listening to Hendrix at 4AM, so are my neighbors. :) - lorenzo9, May 22, 2011
And not too many people listen to Jon Hendricks at high volume these days. - lorenzo9, May 22, 2011
They pipe Hendrix in for elevator music these days. :p - pesta, May 22, 2011

Mmmm! I would like to have that ritual. So relaxed! My ritual: Walking my dog while it is raining. I love the rain!

I walk my dogs on the beach in the morning before many people are out and about.

I open Celestino's door first thing in the morning, he needs to sleep in a seperate room, too little, so then he gets out and can play-

I do not listen to music, almost never actually, I like the quietness....especially when I am on holiday, not much quietness in Madrid, mind you...

We live in a little fishing village. It's very quiet and we love it! But a little music in the afternoon is nice. - lorenzo9, May 22, 2011
