My evening really begins when I take a long, hot bath. I light a candle, and I turn on the news and try to catch up. It's when I can breathe from the day to the night, and that means a lot to me.
Once it gets down to single-digit games, you know the season's end is approaching, and we're all pretty physically tired.
If there's one thing that precedes my sleep, it's my work.
Maybe once in a while, you know, after a hard day of shooting or something like that, I'd kick back.
My weekends start at about 4 P.M. on Friday afternoon, when I let go of work and leave my colleagues to crawl through the rest of the day in our New York offices.
I try to be in bed by 11. Sometimes I watch a 'West Wing' rerun. That relaxes me.
I've never enjoyed sleep as much until I got the 'Today' job. There is something about early sleep that's much better than late sleep. I feel myself going to sleep; I don't just plonk my head on the pillow. It's a sort of winding-down thing.
I have the same wind-down routine when I go to bed, whether I'm shooting or not. It's nothing too special - maybe some TV, maybe a book.
I'm usually in jammies and slippers by 8 P.M.
I usually go home and go to sleep; that's what I do for fun.
After filming I like to go home and lie down with my daughter and have a glass of wine so I don't really socialize with the other actors.
Before bed, I read a book or flip on the radio - I'm not picky, I'll just turn it on and see what comes up. I burn a yummy lavender- scented candle.
The moment I am off the field, it's my personal time.
While I could still play in the Premier League, I really did not want to go abroad. I was not thinking about winding down my career.
What happens is we finish the show, have a couple of drinks, go back to the hotel, talk, and that's it.
About 1960, it became clear that it was best for me to bring the experimental part of my research program to a close - there was too much to do on the theoretical aspects - and I began the process of winding down the experiments.
Chefs don't eat at normal hours, so the only time you feel like you really need a meal is after service, when you're exhausted and just crave something to help you wind down.
I go home and take all of my make-up off. Then I sit in my pants or a tracksuit and watch 'Birds Of A Feather.' That's most nights of my life.
The world is a clock winding down.
During the season, most of my time to unwind is in my car ride home. When I get home, it's being with my kids.
I've started to really nurture a bedtime routine, which, for me, starts with caffeine-free tea, usually rooibos or jasmine tea, something soothing, very fragrant, just a reminder to get back to your senses.
I always try to read at night, because it gets me kind of tired.
My ideal evening is to have dinner with one person or a few persons, and then be in bed by 11.
'SpongeBob' is a cartoon I love. Especially when I'm in bed by myself at home and I have trouble sleeping, my reflex is to put cartoons on.
