What would you do with an extra 3 hours and 20 minutes a day?

So it’s day 2. So far no one has died, no one has lost any limbs, and I haven’t smoked. I found out today that not smoking means I have a shitload of time on my hands. I spent an average of 3 hours and 20 minutes smoking every day (10 minutes per cigarette, 20 times a day). Today I:

  • Cleaned my entire house. Twice. Before 9 a.m.
  • Went grocery shopping and bought 732 boxes of Little Debbie snacks. I’ll worry about being fat later.
  • Found out that I really, really hate it when people change the radio station too often.
  • Found out that it irritates me even more when it’s my ex doing the station changing.
  • Watched three episodes of Touched By An Angel on the Hallmark channel and cried. I DVRed the rest of the season.
  • Spilled a whole glass of Diet Coke in the living room. It got all over the curtains, which gives something to do tomorrow.
  • Helped Chris grill hotdogs. Then he told me to go away and take my “opinions” with me. I merely pointed out he’d set the rolls on fire. I thought it was helpful. He disagreed.
  • Accidentally stuck my tongue in a fan.

I’m thinking I may take on a new hobby. I have way too much time on my hands. Any suggestions? At this rate, I’ll either be in the hospital trying to loosen my straps or will have figured out how to make cold fusion.

I'm not sure why no one will take me up on this but, you could spend those hours composing books of odes and sonnets to me.
