Cruising after Offer - Good or Bad?

I am feeling exhausted (and relieved) having secured my offer recently. There are a number of transactions happening, and while I know that more deal exposure will be nothing but beneficial, I just can't seem to pull myself together. To all monkeys who have secured an offer and are now in cruising mode, how did you guys cope with this?
