Time Wasters

I'm pretty gosh darn cold from ice packs and tired from drills going into my gums. And I'm totally bored because daytime tv is starting to get kinda repetitious. So do any of you have good time wasters? Games or funny long stories... anything?

I just wrote a really long story. It's pretty rough, though, 'cause it was written in 30 days.

The Road

Let's see, what else... oh, someone emailed me this today:

1. Go to http://www.somesongs.com
2. Click the "random song" link
3. Listen to the song, write a comment, rate it
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 ad nauseam

That is not a time waster, although it does use a lot of time.

i've been digging http://www.websudoku.com but it does require some brainwork.

I got stuck twice and had to use my mouse. But yeah, could do that for too long.

I'm prone to a bit of Sudoku myself. But I just got an xbox second hand on ebay, along with a few games. Funny, seem to have misplaced my to do list somewhere . . .

Desktop Tower Defense is great fun. I beat it on "Hard" level but "The 100" is kicking my butt.
