Comfort Math?

[sythyry]

[OOC rowyn gave me an icon of Feralan and hCevian!  So, as promised, they will chat. -bb]

I am hCevian writing this.

When I am upset, I generally think about hyperbolic geometry to calm down.  When Feralan is upset, he often contemplates arithmetic or polynomial sequences of numbers. 

What kind of mathematics do you find most comforting?  Or, if not mathematics, what other thoughts comfort you when you are downcast or distressed?

I occasionally think about awkward functions, x^x and the like, or more often logical rather than mathematical things (incompleteness etc.)

Usually I just think about decayed, overgrown places and betentacled deities though.
