Break Time!
14 November 2010
I don’t take a great many breaks — I’m usually either working on day-job stuff or writing (or all the stuff that goes with writing, like research and promotion). But when I do take a break, you’ll usually find me doing one of two things:
1. Watching Sci-Fi (catching up on Stargate: Atlantis at the moment, as I missed it while it was on TV).
2. Playing XBox (Forza III and Modern Warfare, mostly).
What about you? What do you do to blow off some steam?

One word: YouTube.
I like to walk but feel a bit stupid without a dog (for now). I also like to pick up the very occasional video game and kick my 8 year old’s butt (misspent youth). But mainly I watch TV (GOOD WIFE, CRIMINAL MINDS, that sort of stuff) or maybe cook up a big batch of food, or soak in the tub with a good book, or hang out with a friend and yap. Wow–what am I doing at the computer with all that good stuff to do? π
I love to window shop. I think, even if I had buckets of money, I’d still like to just go and look at pretty jewelry and art that I wouldn’t actually wear or have in my home. It’s good for getting out of the house and stretching the legs without breaking the bank. If I’m of a mood to stay home, I bake and watch comedy reruns.
Walking seems popular. π I dig it too, but during the day, of course. When I normally take a break, it’s about 2 a.m., and I don’t function well in the cold.
