Keeping busy (the hippie way)

In a previous post I eluded to the fact that I'll be keeping myself (sort-of) busy while playing hippie. The fact is that nobody can just sit and not do anything - well, some people can, but there is just so much browsing I can do before gnawing through my wrists to get to the juicy parts.

This whole (un)employment thing is quite new to me, so I've set a target of around 3 months just to take a break before I'll (probably, probably not) start looking outside my little cramped study. While locked-up with two small dogs, my (current) plan is to spend some time on the profitable (and not-so-profitable) hobbies. At this point:

• Sports Trading & Gambling - This is a nice little adrenaline flowing pastime. Some you win, some you lose, keeping it in the green is where we need to be at. Lately I've been taking it a bit slower on this front, but will ramp up soon enough.
  
• Some toy design - I'm a bit behind with at least 3 models that I need to finish in a very short period of time. (And that is not even thinking about the one that we already have prototypes for or the one that we will have prototypes for soon enough or the one that we are very close to getting to the prototype stage.)
  
• A tiny bit of development just to keep the IT part of the brain ticking over.

Since I'm at home with a bit less of a dress-code, I'll also do my best to fully breaking in my $400 denims. (I really love my pair of Iron Heart 21oz 641's.)
