I have a few things. Kung fu training is a big one. I do that twice on Monday (once for an hour and then for 3-4 hours) and then Wednesday and Friday (3-4 hours each) is a good one, and I always feel better after I'm done, even on my most incompetent-feeling days.

Reading can help too. I'll often treat myself to lunch on Sundays, and one of my favorite things is to take a good book to some local joint or another and just hang out. Eat, read, get hopped up on caffeine.

Other times I just get some alcohol (beer or bourbon) and camp out in front of my computer for some combination of video games, TV/a movie, and the web. Pretty much what I'm doing right now, in fact....
