Chronicling my journey as the mother of a gifted child.

Time-wasters

December 8th 2006 11:32
I'm a firm believer that all work and no play makes Hope a miserable woman As a work at home mom currently writing for 5 different websites while taking care of my daughter and babysitting the child of a neighbor, not to mention taking a writing class on the side, my day can be pretty hectic. So you'd understand why I need to unwind at the end of the day. Trouble is I don't drink neither do I smoke, I'm also not a party animal, yup, I'm pretty boring. How then do i unwind,? Well this is were time-wasters come in.


Time-wasters are stuff to do online that are quite enjoyable and interesting.. Time-wasters aren't necessarily a waste of time as most needs reasoning and critical thinking to play it. Some are even so engaging it becomes addictive in a way. But all in all its good, clean fun. Here are my favorite time-wasters:

MOTAS - It stands for the Mystery of Time and Space. This game starts off with you trapped in a bedroom and you have to figure out how to get out of that room using items hidden there. You can also chat online while you play the game with other people.


Draw a House - Is a website which alllows you to draw a house and afterwards they will analyze your house and give you input on what it reveals about your personality.


Line-Rider - Whoever created this is a genius. You create lines and hit the arrow and Line Rider will go biking on the lines you drew. Be careful or he'll end up falling off his bike.


Pandora - I really love this one. It enables you to create your custom playlist by searching for music based on your initial choice. Let's say you enter "Unfaithful" by Rihanna, it will then pull up songs that have the same musical quality as "Unfaithful". In this case the first song it pulled out was "Stay With Me" by Danity Kane. Plus you get to listen to the songs full-length.

Zombo.Com - When I need a laugh I go to this site, it always cracks me up



What are your favorite tiime-wasters online?

Hope, those sound like really fun time-wasters. I'll be back to try them out next week. My usual time-waster is blog-reading. Orble, for one, but also a bunch of others. I really need to cut back on that.

Great links, Hope. I'm going to have to cut back on my drinking, smoking, partying lifestyle to spend more time on these sites
