Mum's The Word

I haven't spoken one single word yet today. I woke up around 4:00, (which is kind of early for me, being nocturnal and all) ate, and played some NHL '08 on my PS2. (I'm currently 55-0-0 on my first season, by the way.) But yeah, then I came in here to check my email and I realized that I have not actually said one word yet. I don't mind; I think it's kind of cool, really.

I don't have much else to share, I guess. I've basically described my whole day already. All three hours of it. I'm bored, though, and right now I really don't want to go to work tonight. Maybe I'll lay back down for a little while.

For any readers out there, a question:

What is the best thing to do in one's spare time?

Things to do to kill time: a list from the mind of Bill.

1) "Walk the Dog"
2) Play guitar.
3) Read.
4) Nap.
5) Watch DVDs for the ninth or tenth time.
6) Blog.
7) Go to everyone's favorite surf guitar web forum to find out if silver mica capacitors are really that much better than their ceramic cousins.
8) Do google image searches for random phrases. Be sure "safe search" is off.
9) Find a web comic and read the entire run of it.
10) Go for a walk (yes, this is tougher in Columbus than it is in SF)
11) Drink coffee and think about all the things you'll get done.
12) Clean. Anything and everything.
13) Drink. Time flies when you're buzzed.
14) "Take care of business"
15) Re-organize any collection. I find music works best, but books, clothes, or anything of that ilk will work.
16) Try to take apart and re-assemble simple electronics.
17) One compound word: YouTube.
18) Try to write the next great American novel.
19) Read the "Best of Craigslist" head-to-toe.
20) Fill out mindless surveys on Myspace.
21) Stalk random women on any social networking site.
22) Play Text Twist online.
24) Figure out the mystery of who stole number 23.
25) "tickle the pickle"
26) Find amazing hipster music blogs and see if you can find a site where you can illegally download the albums.
27) E-mail everyone you know. Twice.
28) Memorize page upon page of "great quotes of our time".
29) Get a digital camera and see how long it takes you to get the perfect angle and setup for your next avatar picture.
30) When you've exhausted all these options, write a blog about the pursuit. You might want to omit numbers 1, 14, and 25.
