I'm re-reading the skirmish rules at my leisure now. Hoping the day will end soon and weekend will begin.
 
Oh yeah, and posting on maxminis of course.

This is my one vice, at work. And I visit here, not because I'm bored, but because I'm too darn busy all the time and sometimes I just need a break from the grind.

My co-workers laughed at me when I said "My own desk" as a reason for transferring. Now that I set up games (magic, dreamblade, DDM, SWM, board games) and play with my co-workers. Who's laughing now!!!

That, and downloading Mozilla to bypass the filter...

I'm always at work by myself and tend to read modules/sourcebooks, the occaisional novel and watch movies.
Tonight, I'll be enjoying The Chronicles of Riddick, Dodgeball(for about the 100th time), and American Wedding, along with looking over the 2e Night Below boxed set conversions.

Daydream mostly.

I am the boss - at my office anyway.  The owner lives across the country and is basically retired.

I'm doing it. Maxminis!

I get basically free reign of the internet, as long as it's SFW.

I also work on articles and game designs.

How much free time is there, though, where you could read a boo or peruse the web whilst they're there.

I prep stuff for our D&D campaign. I think today I will be sorting through my D&D pdfs and making sure I have all the current errata & web enhancements included in them. Later on I'll probably work on my 3d animation homework. Work is really slow so I have a lot of free time!

We all seem to do D&D stuff at work during our free time....I wonder what people at WotC do at work during their free time. Create TPS reports and inspect sprockets?

I will buy your unwanted D&D WotC minis collection (DDM only). Email me your asking price!

I do homework. I suppose now that I'm working on a masters' I should say I do "research."

Granted, it's very rare that my job is boring
