I often get in the mood to shut everything and everyone out and just spend some quality time with me, myself, and I. Usually I do this by taking a dance class and then gorging on rag mags while getting my toes done. I’m not sure why exactly, but it does the trick every time. I emerge relaxed, stuffed to the gills with celeb gossip, with my feet looking hot. I asked other Frisky staffers to share their “me” time rituals. What are yours?
