I want my quality time back!
« on: July 29, 2006, 03:01:40 PM »


It's the weekend. All week, as with every week, I've worked my arse off and want a break. A break from work, a break from projects, a break from stress, a break from mundane everyday housekeeping tasks (that get crammed into the weekend since theres never any time during the week), a break from this fricking aching itchy arm....

All I want to do is power up one of the several amiga systems here and do a spot of coding, maybe play with OS4 on the still-to-update A1 or something, but there's always something more important to do. And when there isn't, I'm usually too damn tired. I haven't used any of my amigas, not even UAE properly for many months. It's really p*ssing me off now.

I never thought I'd look back on an earlier period of unemployment fondly, but at least I got to indulge the miggy habit a bit. Not anymore.

How do other people here manage to make time for their vice?

At least I might then get some time to myself.
