What do you do?
Comment here on what you generally do after school/work/whatever during the weekday. Excluding of course any pre-planned events.
For me, I usually come home exhausted. Not so much because of work, unless I've had a really stresser of a day but because of the commute home. Or at the very least, the commute home adds 2 x the amount of exhaustion because it seems to take forever, I'm usually crowded in with a lot of people, the seats are uncomfortable and the traffic can be a big hassle slowing everyone down.
However, I think I could narrow it down to being in a small space with so many people. It's like everyone elses happy/crappy energy is too intermingled and sorting it all out or pushing it aside is impossible.
Anyway, once I finally do get home 95% of the time I get dressed in some comfy jogging pants and a t-shirt and play with Star a little bit. Then I get to either cleaning up some little mess, or make food. Sometime within 2 hours of getting home, lately around 6:00p I do end up eating something. And with the mess, I usually have one or two (or dozens) of projects I'd like to work on. For instance, tonight I took to cleaning off the shelf in my claustrophobic office. Books were a strew and I had camera equipment mixed in with computer equipment. It was a mess. But, at the same time I had three external 3.5" HD enclosures arrive from NewEgg, and so now I have roughly over 200 gb of space for the laptop.
If I don't have any special projects, I'm usually on the computer for awhile, checking emails, looking at photos, checking bank balances. I have this obsessive habit of checking them every night. I check myspace, make comments here and there, maybe get lost in manipulating a few photos I had taken recently. Sometimes I get a hair up my butt and decide to experiment with some photography. You saw one of my experiments a few nights ago. Moon Shine I think I called it.
Sometime around 8:30 or 9:00 pm I get tired of looking at the computer screen and so I go catch up on some crap recorded on the DVR.
This song I'm listening to right now, Peter Gabriel's - Solsbury Hill reminds me of my grandfather (on mom's side) for some reason. It always has.
Anyway, back to my original question.. What do you do? on what you generally do after school/work/whatever during the weekday?
I am very curious... thanks and enjoy your night.
