All righty now. That last list, Ten Things A Freelance Writer Doesn’t Need, was so much fun, I thought I’d come back with another. Only this time, I am r-e-a-l-l-l-l-l-y gonna try your sense of humor.
Freelance writers live an pathetic existence in that we really don’t get much free time. Myself, I find the biggest diversion of the day by going around the island in the kitchen to get to the coffee pot, as opposed to making that straight path. Why just the other day, I found a missing poker chip, or I thought it was until I bit into it pretending it was a cucumber slice. It may as well have been that poker chip; it tasted like it had been AWOL as long as the poker chip, which was about four months.
Where was I? Oh yeah….diversions. What is it we freelancers do with all of our free time? I know you’re dieing to find out, so without further delay, I give you the top ten things writers do in the spare time:

Some of us do. Some of us get really wild and dust off our keyboards. For a really rousing time we may finally clean that smoke off of the computer screen (if the windex is handy)…ya know, fun things like that
Are we really writer’s or are we just inspired to write? I’m still trying to figure it all out. I’ll go ahead and nibble on a real cucumber while I ponder my thoughts :O
If I give you my answer to that, I may never get hired. So, I’ll just shut up and see if I can scare up a poker game somewhere.
There’s a great video poker game on my iPod. Funny how my weekly score on that game is directly correlated to how much work I’ve done online for the week. Rest assured that if I haven’t put out a new lens in awhile I’ve at least ranked very high in video poker.
