It’s Official.. I’ve Officially Run out of Shit to Do on the Internet
Yes, you read that correctly… The Average White Guy has officially run out of shit to do with on the internet in his spare time. Sure, I can repeat the same stuff I normally do:
- Check Craigslist for deals on musical instruments (namely guitars),
- Scan the DrudgeReport
- Read the first few funny stories listed on Digg
- Check my local weather (both 36-hour AND 5-day forecasts)
- Bank account balance
- Google Adsense statistics (which are just plain awful - click liberally! I kid.)
- Check Woot
- Find new people on MySpace
- Send a quick message to old friends on MySpace
- Check every email account I own (3 including Gmail, Gmail Again, and work email)
- Hey, I’m a dude… sometimes there is a #11, sometimes not
but I have all 10 (sometimes 11) of these things down so pat, we’re looking at 10 minutes tops. Today I actually went to CandyStand.com for a little cheap Shockwave/Flash gaming. So what do I do? Well I don’t know… I’d like to be reaping huge profits of some sort, but I think that’s a bit more complicated than it sounds… so I don’t do that much.
Lately I’ve been watching TV from my computer desk and looking up the names of actors or actresses I’ve seen in these movies, but never knew their name. It’s not very fun, but it’s something to do… And it keeps me from mindlessly gaming which will rot my brain. I’ll also pick up one of the (17) guitars and pluck, which can really eat up a lot of spare time
The weather is getting nicer here in Pittsburgh (see #4 above), so I might spend more time outside than inside… The last few years I have gotten away from my active lifestyle… I used to be into all sorts of outdoor activities like watching baseball (on TV in my gameroom) and sleeping in the hammock, but I’m so out of shape now… It’s hardly worth the effort… Besides, I might miss something on Drudge or stuff. What if that happens? I would just die…
I guess I should start being more active… I wasn’t lying about being out of shape… Back in high school (and the first semester of college) I was skinny little dude… I was fast like lightning and limber like a Romanian gymist… Now I’m only 95% sure I still have all 11 toes (counting… 1,2,3,4…9,10 AHH!! I only have 10 toes!!!… Checking WebMD.com… Oh.. ok then… I’m only supposed to have 10 toes… everything is fine…) and I certainly can’t touch them without grunting… It’s a shame. I’ll get right on that… maybe.
Well, it’s been about 20 minutes since my last round of 10 (sometimes 11) routinely visited sites… I better check them again so’s I don’t lose anything. Later…
