Default Weight and balance, ballast, trim when flying alone

What is your method for handling weight and balance when you are piloting a
small aircraft alone? Do you just trim to adjust for the lateral imbalance,
or do you put something on the other side of the plane (ballast, luggage,
etc.) to balance it out, or what?


Just tilt your big fat head to the high side, and stick a book under
your monitor to compensate.
