What do you do when you are not computing?
« on: May 16, 2009, 02:49:15 AM »
I sit on my balcony and cry, longing for the moment I can get back to my PC. :'(

heh, yah right..

nah, actually in a couple of weeks my routine is going to change.  Aside from becoming legally drunk, too often,  I'm going to start building and experimenting with electronic circuitry, probably try to get outside more too.  Believe or not, doing something simple like "the dishes", is kind of stress relieving, after you've been looking at a computer screen for hours....It's quite strange.  It's like, welcome back to the planet earth... \

Of course, in few months I'll probably be working as a computer tech. somewhere and that will take most of my time.

I grow landscape shrubbery. I love fresh water fishing.

I go to college, to do an IT course hehe.
I walk my dog and walk with my family.
I go out with my friends, driving or just hanging out.
I read a lot, sometimes play some video games.

    I took an incentive laden early retirement, went back to school, got my A+, going fishing, and taking it easy for now.......

    OK, Calum, have me banned for this:

    I had an image of you walking the dog on a collar and leash; while the family had a similar arrangement on you.   ::)   :)

        I'm surprised that your on.  Any how I train when I can attempting to get A+ certified and usually do a oray of things when I am not near a pc.  That is hardly never mostly, but when I can I watch tv and play wii or something.

        If I fall who is there to pick me up now.  I stand alone but I stand as the gaurdian for whom I wish to protect.  The sound of my blade utters my name as you fall.  For I shall not move.  For those that forsake the very people are wosres

        From 7AM to 8:15AM when I leave for my bus, I watch tv, or run around my house after eating breakfast. Then I'm at school from 8:45 to 3:20PM, and I get home at 3:55PM. After that, depending on if it's a Monday or not, I go on the computer after watching tv for a bit. After dinner I usually ride my bike around the block.

        I was going to say Eat and sleep.
        But I do both of these while on the computer.
        But not both and the same time while on the computer.
        You just have to take my word for it, the part about eating while on the computer.
        As for having sleep while on the computer,
        many of you already how I am at that!.

        So.. what doe that leave?

        OH! Yeah! Our barroom does not have a computer!
