I've got plenty of stuff I want to do, but lots more stuff I need to do and that takes precedence.

I have to read some of my philosophy book, read more for my history class, work on my sysadmin class project. That's homework for today, anyway.

Other than that, I'd like to eventually get around to installing Linux on my other computer (Linux newbie, for learning experience) and I'm always looking to play more games in my NCAA Football 2004 dynasty.

Edit: Sure, change the topic while I'm working on a reply to the other topic :)

8. Read every once in awhile (from the TOWER of books I've not read)

But I'm going to go home, sit down and enjoy some nice old fashioned Quake1. Because I'm lazy and find certain things far too enjoyable to do anything else.

1. Tile the kitchen (I bought 20 cases of 12x12 ceramic tile, thinset and grout months ago-just sitting in my garage waiting for me to find the time to do it)
2. Paint the garage door.
3. Paint the master bedroom.
4. Build 2' tall x 12' long planter out of block with stone face in back yard.
5. Find time to surf more often...I've been once since my son was born...He's one year old now.
6. Replace shocks in wife's car.

So many projects, so little time. I would also like to lay tile in our master bath...carpet in a bathroom is always a bad idea.

That's some important stuff there. I can't imagine how unfullfilled I'd feel if I never got the chance to watch TV and play video games.

Heck yeah.

What else is there to do in life?

I go to work and pay my bills.. the rest is enjoyment.
