    Find a sport you're into. It will give you something to do and more to spend your money on!

    I sit at home, listening to the tick of the clock, waiting until I get to go to work again.

    Alternatively, I dabble with the games console, surf the net, meet friends for a game of cards/cuppa/RPG/pint, sleep...

    Why, do they use a different type of payload?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,745 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    um, their payload is rocket propelled grenades.....

    I'm always either at lectures, studying for the exams, at training, or out with my friends. I don't have enough hours in the day :(
    Oh and I occasionally go home to eat and sleep!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,367 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Wander home from work, cook some dinner, do whatever cleaning's necessary then veg in front of the TV with beers/spliffs and my laptop.

    Digitalninja's right. Working for a living blows.

    come home, play bass for a while, then play guitar for a while, then listen to music and wander the web like a monkey


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 535 ✭✭✭bonzai bob


    come home - look around in the cupboards for food - not find any food - go up stairs - turn on PC - turn on tv - sit at desk - check msg's - sit on bed - watch tv - alternate between bed and desk - play guitar/bass - practise rudiments - eat when almost fainting with the hunger - cry - sleep

    Come home; surf web; watch Mega Machines on Discovery; walk the dog; do my best to ignore the missus going on about the painting that needs doing; drink Guinness; go to bed and back to top after work next day.

    Jesus when I write it down like that, what a slob I've become .... better get married and have some sprogs or something soon to keep me busy. :o

    Well I live in London, and work shifts so when I'm off none of my friends tend to be off. People think there's lots to do in London. Only if you can afford it. Even if you want to go to the city, you spend £5.00 to get the tube. I normally stay in the local area, head to the pub for a coke or a café for a coffee. Mostly I stay at home on the computer or watching tv.

    I finish work .... spend 1.5 hours commuting home to Navan from Dublin .... put on dinner .... eat dinner .... clean back garden after dog .... walk dog .... read book & drink copious amounts of tea whilst watching tv & chatting with better half!!

    Ah working life ... does it get any better :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 530 ✭✭✭Garibaldi


    Finish work - play with the traffic for 40 mins on the way home - eye up the front door that's only half stripped and promise SWMBO I'll do it at the weekend - make dinner - eat dinner - PC/TV/Music combo - study (promised I'd stop doing this 11 years ago, but I got bored) - sleep. Tremendous.

    Time is a great thing to have. I'll buy it off you?

    improve yourself... is there anything that you have always wanted to do or be ? play a musical instrument? get fit? explore your creative side? find religion?

    If you don't want your time... give it to someone else. Do stuff for other people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,850 ✭✭✭Cianos


    OP,
    Maybe try and find some kind of hobby that you can get into and get excited about? I really dont want to sound like I'm pimping my site or anything, but poker is actually a great thing to get into. It's an interesting hobby that can also be very rewarding financially. Plus, since you spend a good bit of time on the net, its a more productive way to spend time online.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,082 ✭✭✭Tobias Greeshman


    Come home, amazed by the little amount of food in the kitchen, sit infront of the tv, when there's nothing on, cook some food and watch tv till im tired.

    What are you complaining about, you get home in time to see Judge Judith Scheindlin do her thing on the trash-e-ist trailer trash in america!

    get your hands on "the sims", tis a sure fire way to eat up ridiculous amounts of time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,762 ✭✭✭smokingman


    Spend hour and a half commuting back home, play cube 'til herself comes in, cook dinner/have it cooked for me/order takeout, watch half an hour of tv, play guitar with neighbour, creep into bed after getting inebriated and hope she doesn't notice......

    The guitar bit doesn't happen every night tho...and I never browse the web at home unless there's something I have to do - I see enough of pcs at work...
